Abstract

A pick up tool comprises a shovel with a hinged lid which may be opened or closed by the actions of a sliding device mounted on the handle. The lid is attached to the sliding device by a linking bar. In use, when the slide is moved up the handle the lid will be opened, while it is closed when the slide is pushed down the handle toward the shovel. The device may be fabricated from sheet steel and sheet aluminium. The tool is operated using both hands, and may be of use to persons who have difficulty in bending.

Description

This tool I have invented is a pickup tool and is called a tailgate
shovel.
When put to work, it will pick up leaves, lawn grass cuttings, hedge trimmings, weeds, and thorny materials.

Part 3 is the tailgate opening & closing mechanism. It consists of a slide on the handle of the shovel, When this slide is drawn back towards the end of the handle. a bar that is connected to the slide and to the tailgate will open the box and when the slide is pushed down the handle the tailgate will close.
