BRUSH AND STUBBLE CUTTER Filed May 25, 1954 frwerlin LcrZa-n. Euetetf Coda at;
Patented June 11, 1935 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 2 Claims.
The object of my invention is to provide a novel and efiicient tool for cutting brush and stubble, having the blade set at a novel angle to the handle, and having a novel type of handle,
A and having novel means of securing the blade to the handle.
I attain these and other objects of my invention by the device illustrated in the accompanying drawing in which Figure l is a side elevation of the invention; and v Figure 2 is an edge elevation of the invention.
Referring to the accompanying drawing, I provide a handle I having the arms 2 with a grip 3 secured between them by suitable means such as the rivets 4 and disposed in a plane at right angles to the plane of the handle I. The entire length of the handle is required to be approximately 10 inches for greater accuracy in using the instru- 20 ment. The handle may be of any suitable material but preferablyis a flat strip of metal. The
grip 3 also may be of any suitable shape but preferably is elliptical in cross section, as such shape affords a better grip and provides more accuracy in using the implement.
I provide a relatively short blade 6, approximately 6 inches in length, which is disposed at an angle of approximately 45 degrees to the shank I and having a suitable beveled edge portion I as indicated by the dotted lines in the drawing, and terminating in a sharp point 8. The blade 6 has a turned over end portion 9 which overlaps and engages in the recessed portion 5 of the handle I to securely hold the blade on the handle. The handle I has its end portion I bent over the back of the blade 6 to more securely fasten the handle on the blade. I also provide a bolt or screw II for detachably bolting the shank of the blade 6 to the handle I, as shown in the drawing. It is required that the device be so constructed as to permit of readily detaching the blade for the pur-- pose of sharpening. i
It is required that the handle I be a short handle substantially as shown in the drawing, and also that the blade be disposed at an angle of approximately 45 degrees to the handle, and also that the grip be substantially of the type illustrated in the drawing in order to function emciently in the cutting of heavy brush and for use adjacent to walls and fences.
The short handle allows the use of the wrist to turn the cutting edge of the blade to any desired angle in using the cutter. It is of very sturdy construction and will cut brush of a size up to 1 inches in diameter. Due to the flexibility of the wrist this device is especially adapted for rapid operation and for cutting bushes, re-
gardless of surrounding obstructions, and close to the ground, leaving the land in much better condition by keeping it clear of brush. It also permits the operator to have one hand free to grasp the bush being cut and facilitates use of the instrument. The relation of the grip to the cutting edge of the blade forces a slicing out which is essential to eflicient operation and is the essence of the entire invention.
What I claim is:
'1. In a brush and stubble cutter, the combination of a short handle, a relatively short blade disposed at an angle of approximately 45 degrees to the handle, the handle having a recessed portion at its lower end, the blade having its shank bent to overlap the recessed portion of the handle, and the handle having its shank bent to overlap the outer edge of the blade to more securely fasten the blade and handle together.
2. In a brush and stubble cutter, the combination of -a short handle bifurcated at one end, a grip mounted in the bifurcated end of thehandle, said grip being elliptical in cross section, a relatively short blade securely aflixed to the handle and disposed at an angle of approximately 45 degrees to the handle, the end of the blade and the end of the handle each having a portion over-. lapping the other.
