Description

Functional weed remover

The present invention relates to a functional weed remover, and more specifically, unlike conventional, it is possible to remove weeds with a small force while removing the weeds as roots, as well as to remove weeds present in difficult to access or highly contaminated areas. It is more effective at this time, and in particular, it relates to a functional weed remover that can selectively remove and remove weeds from crops, so that the weed removal efficiency can be significantly higher than in the prior art.

When farming crops in a field or harvesting crops such as potatoes, traditional farming equipment is used.

The hoe is composed of a sharp pointed tip and a blade part of a shape that gradually widens, and a handle combined to be gripped by hand at one end of the blade.

Such hoe is not only used for sowing crops in silk fields or for harvesting crops such as potatoes, and can also be used in parallel to remove weeds growing around crops.

However, the normal hoe is formed to have a gradually widening surface at the pointed tip, so when weed for removal of weeds, weeds are removed using a pointed part, but this does not cut the weed root but roots the weeds. There is a disadvantage that it takes a lot of power to kick out.

In particular, due to the nature of the hoe that gradually widens from the end, the roots of the adjacent crops are damaged together, causing a problem that the crops cannot grow.

A weed remover (Internet Naver search; Wolfgarden) has been proposed to solve this problem. This weed remover consists of a blade bent in a shape of “a” for easy weeding and a handle coupled to the rear of the blade.

However, this weed remover has a problem in that the blades are formed on the outer sides around the vertices where the blades are bent, so that only the weed roots are carefully selected and removed from the field where the crops and weeds are harmonized.

In addition, when weeds are placed and pulled in the grooves of the bent portion of the "a" to remove the weeds having cut the roots, the direction perpendicular to the handle does not maintain the direction perpendicular to the direction of the force being pulled. If not, the power is not properly loaded on the weeds, and there is a problem in that weeds are not easily removed.

Accordingly, there has been proposed a weed remover 1 in the form of a plow, as shown in FIG. 1, out of the weed remover method of the homi structure, but when weeds are removed using the weed remover 1 of FIG. Considering that the efficiency of weed removal must be significantly reduced because it must be removed together, the need for a functional weed remover of a new concept that has not been known is emerging.
