Abstract
A manure collector comprising two vertical levers 2 which are hand-operated from the top 1 of the levers (which pivot on a central bolt 3) to open and close two half "scoops" 4 which are sited at the bottom of the levers, to form one full "scoop" in which the pile of manure is picked up.
Description
<p>1 2436058 Manure Collector The Manure Collector is a hand-operated
mechanical device for collecting manure in</p>
<p>the field and/or in the stable and arena.</p>
<p>Existing forms of manure collection devices on the market consist of a hand held "scoop and fork" or an motor-powered "hoover". The former is efficient in the stable or arena but not in the field. The latter is efficient in the field but is expensive to purchase and incurs on-going running costs. There still remains a need for an efficient time and cost-effective implement.</p>
<p>The Manure Collector consists of Iwo vertical levers (2) which pivot on a central bolt (3), held by two hands at the top of the levers by moulded hand grips (1) (approx waist height). The levers open and close the two "half grabs" with serrated inner edges sited at the bottom of the levers to form one "bucket". (See Figure 1).</p>
<p>The Manure Collector works by placing your hands around the two hand grips at the top of the levers, pulling apart the levers and placing the two "half grabs" (4) either side of the pile of manure and then pushing them together again, thus closing the two halves around the pile of manure and collecting it in to one "bucket".</p>
<p>The manure can then be dropped into a wheelbarrow and deposited on a muck heap.</p>
<p>The Manure Collector is practical not only in the stable or arena but is particularly</p>
<p>efficient in the field because:</p>
<p>1) Its mechanical action means that manure in any form, whether wet and sloppy or firm and lumpy is efficiently collected.</p>
<p>2) When in the open position the two "grabs" cover a wide area of ground and can therefore pick up a high pile of manure or one that has spread.</p>
<p>3) Its strength of action and serrated edges mean that it can extract manure from long grass and from uneven ground.</p>
<p>4) The gap between the closing action of the serrated edges of the two "half grabs" means that any water drains out of the bottom as the manure is lifted up.</p>
<p>5) It is easy to carry to and from the field and takes up little space to store.</p>
<p>6) It is operated at waist height so no bending is involved.</p>
Claims (1)
- <p>Claims 1. A hand-operated manure collector comprising two verticallevers which centrally pivot to open and close two half containers at the bottom of the levers to form one container in which the pile of manure is scooped up.</p>
