An apparatus for scraping a surface. The apparatus includes an attachment element to attach to a cleaning tool, and a scraper element. The scraper element is coupled to the attachment element and includes a blade member and a guard member. The leading edge of the blade member is used to scrape the surface, while the guard member is disposed along one or more lateral edges of the blade member. A corresponding system and method are also disclosed and claimed herein.

Provide is a tool that includes a handle assembly including a top and bottom portion and a blade disposed between the top and bottom portion having first and second ends and an opening at its first end. The opening includes first and second notches opposed to one another. The tool also includes a latch assembly disposed between the top and bottom portion that is movable between first and second positions, the latch assembly including a latch having a protrusion that engages one of the first or second notches in the first position and disengages from the one of the first or second notches in the second position. The blade is rotatable about the first end between a closed positioned where the first notch is engaged by the protrusion, and an open position where the second notch is engaged by the protrusion.

A hand tool includes a handle which is a hollow handle with a space defined therein. A connection portion has a slit defined in the first end thereof. The connection portion has two ribs extending inward from an inside of the second end thereof. The handle has a tubular portion extending from one end thereof. A protrusion extends outward from outside of the tubular portion. The tubular portion is inserted into the second end of the connection portion, and the ribs are engaged with the protrusion. A blade has a body and a toothed portion. The toothed portion is inserted into the slit of the connection portion. A cooling material is located in the space of the handle. The connection portion of the handle is connected to the toothed portion of the blade. The cooling material performs as a weight in the handle.

An ice scraper comprising a handle and a scraper head connected to the handle. The scraper head includes a proximal end, a distal end having a scraping edge, a scraping side, a chipping side, and at least three chipping teeth for chipping ice, hard snow, or frost from a curved surface. The chipping teeth extend outwardly from the chipping side. Each chipping tooth has a contact edge. At least one of the contact edges is offset forward or rearward of contact edges of two of the other chipping teeth so that at least one point of each contact edge can simultaneously contact the curved surface regardless of the scraper's position relative to the curved surface and regardless of a direction of the scraper.

A collapsible snow paddle. The paddle includes an elongated handle, a rotatable coupling affixed to one end of the handle, and a generally planar snow remover, the rotatable coupling affixed to a rear surface of the remover so that he remover may be collapsed against the handle for storage and extended transverse to the handle for use. The snow remover may have a scraper edge inclined at an angle relative to the surface of the snow remover for scraping ice and a relatively soft capped edge for removing snow.

A scraper includes a body having a handle portion, a first clamping portion, and a second clamping portion. The first clamping portion and the second clamping portion integrally extends from an end of the handle portion. The second clamping portion is pivotable relative to the first clamping portion. The second clamping portion includes a first coupling member disengageably engaged with the first clamping portion. The first coupling member is configured to flex when subjected to a force, thereby disengaging from the first clamping portion. A control member is disposed on the first clamping portion and is configured to flex when subjected to force. Flexing of the control member pushes the first coupling member to thereby disengage the first coupling member from the first clamping portion. A blade is removably mounted between the first clamping portion and the second clamping portion.
