Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide the crushing function of a freezing part and enhance a soil and sand excavation function by separably and detachably forming a part or the whole of a patter rod body, and projecting a sticking projection part on the edge of the pattern rod exposed at the time of separation. SOLUTION: A scoop body 1 forms a resin in the form of a rectangular dish, and molded integrally with a part of a connection part 3. The pattern rod body 2 provides a resin-made triangular frame grip part 22 on the base part of a resin-made rod pattern part 21, and a metal-made sticking projection part 23 provided with proper strength and hardness is provided so as to be projected in the form of obliquely cutting a cylindrical edge. Normally, a scoop body 1 and the patter rod body 2 are connected to be used as a shovel. During snow removal, in the case that the snow removal cannot be performed unless the freezing part is crushed, the patter rod body 2 is detached from the scoop body 1, the sticking projection part 23 of the edge is used to crush the freezing part. After crushed, the scoop body 1 is connected again, and can be used for removing working of crushing ice and snow.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a scoop used for snow removal and horticulture work.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As is well known, scoops are used for scooping and digging of earth and sand and snow. The basic structure of the scoop is to connect a rod-shaped handle rod to a scooping body. It is. And especially as a scoop suitable for snow removal work, the object to be scooped is light and bulky snow, so compared to the equipment used for earth and sand, the strength of the scooping body and the strength of the scooping body itself are low In consideration of the working efficiency, it is preferable that the amount of one scoop be large. For this reason, instruments that have been used in the past have been made of a scooping body portion made of resin or an aluminum alloy (having a large hole in the scooping body).

[0003] By the way, a device using a resin or an aluminum alloy for the scooping body to reduce the weight of the device can certainly work efficiently when digging or removing snow, but a part of the snow is frozen. In this case, the frozen portion cannot be crushed at the leading edge of the scoop. That is, since the strength of the scooping body is not sufficient, if it is used for the crushing operation of the frozen portion, the instrument will be damaged. In particular, a device in which a metal cover is attached to a leading edge of the scooping body is also known, but the scooping body itself is broken because the strength of the entire scooping body is insufficient.

If such frozen parts are present during the snow removing operation, a scoop for earth and sand having sufficient strength is used, or other equipment such as a bur that can grind the frozen parts is used. In other words, it is complicated to prepare equipment in addition to the snow removing scoop. In addition, when used for horticulture, digging work is difficult unless the scooping body is given sufficient strength. Therefore, the present invention proposes a new scoop having a crushing function for a frozen portion and an enhanced earth and sand digging function.

[0005]

A scoop according to the present invention includes a scooping body and a handle rod connected to the scooping body, and a part or all of the handle rod is formed to be detachable and detachable, and a handle exposed at the time of separation. A piercing portion is provided at the tip of the rod so as to protrude therefrom.

[0006] In normal use, the scooping body and the handle rod are used in a connected state, and in the crushing operation of the frozen portion, the handle rod is separated and crushed at the exposed piercing portion.

[0007]

Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described. The scoop shown in the embodiment is mainly used for snow removal and is composed of a scooping body 1, a handle rod 2, and a connecting portion 3 of both. The scooping body 1 is shaped like a rectangular dish like a regular scooping scoop, and is made of resin (polycarbonate).
It is formed integrally with a part of the connecting portion 3 described later.

[0008] The handle rod 2 is provided with a triangular frame-shaped handle portion 22 at the base of the bar-shaped handle portion 21 and a piercing portion 23 protruding at the tip. Both are made of resin, and the piercing portion 23 is made of a metal having appropriate strength and hardness in a shape obtained by obliquely cutting off the tip of a cylindrical shape. The base is inserted into the handle 21 and fixed. It protrudes forward from the handle 21.

The connecting portion 3 is composed of an insertion portion 31 formed integrally with the scooping body 1 and a mounting body 32 as an independent member. The insertion portion 31 projects from the center of the base edge of the scooping body 1. It has a tubular shape in which the tip of the handle rod 2 can be housed, and the tip of the tubular portion is vertically divided, and a thread is provided on the outer peripheral surface. The mounting body 32 is a tubular body that can be screwed onto the insertion portion 31,
The inner diameter of the base is reduced, and the vertically split portion is narrowed by screwing.

The mounting body 32 is loosely screwed into the insertion portion 31 and inserted into the insertion portion 31 so as to accommodate the entire piercing portion 23 at the front end of the handle rod 2. , Wearing body 3
By tightening 2, the vertically split portion of the insertion portion 31 strongly presses the peripheral surface of the handle rod 2 to connect the scooping body 1 and the handle rod 2.
Therefore, when both are connected, the scoop can be used as a normal scoop. In particular, since the scooping body 1 and the handle rod 2 are made of resin, the whole becomes light in weight and efficient snow removing work can be performed.

Further, during the snow removal operation, if there is a frozen portion and snow cannot be removed without crushing, turning the mounting body 31 to loosen the tightened state allows the handle rod 2 to be detached from the scooping body 1, The rod 2 is used as an independent device. That is, the handle rod 2 which has been separated and becomes an independent member,
Since the piercing portion 23 is formed at the tip, the piercing portion 2
3 can be used to grind the frozen portion A (see FIG. 3). After the crushing, when the scooping body 1 is connected again, it becomes a scoop form and can be used for the work of removing crushed ice and snow. Further, when the vehicle is in a slip state, the piercing portion 23 can be used to crush the ice burn.

Therefore, the weight of the whole can be reduced, and in order to reduce the durability of the tool caused by the weight reduction, it is possible to perform the work requiring the strength of the tool by separating the handle rod into an independent tool. It was done.

The piercing projection 23 employs a form in which the tip of a columnar member is obliquely cut, but can be arbitrarily formed in a conical shape or a spear tip shape.

The present invention is not only for snow removal work,
The scooping body (made of resin or metal) may be used for gardening by sharpening the tip. In this case, the sand is crushed softly at the piercing part,
Scooping of earth and sand by the scooping body can be easily performed.

[0015]

As described above, the present invention comprises a scooping body and a handle rod connected to the scooping body, wherein a part or all of the handle rod is formed to be detachable and detachable, and the handle rod exposed at the time of separation. A scoop with a piercing part protruding at the tip, which can be used as a normal scoop in the connected state, and the handle rod can be used as an independent instrument in the separated state for crushing ice and snow is there.
