The single piece connector is made from a tear resistant, and relatively high durometer elastomer, such as polyurethane. The connector has two adjacent bores separated by a common wall in which the shafts of two rakes can be firmly received. The connector's dimensions combined with the stiffness of the constituent material provide a significant restoritive biasing force when the rakes are pivoted relative to the connector that helps hold a load of scooped leaves between the associated rake heads as the head are maneuvered to a desired container for deposit.

A swivel coupling device for rakes or other yard tools having handles that allows two of the implements to be quickly and easily connected for use of the combination to scoop, rake or the like various materials, and disconnected just as easily thereafter. The device includes a pair of clamp assemblies including tubular sleeves rotatably connected by a swivelable knuckle or in other words a swivel joint.

A motorized lute includes a first plate having a first plurality of teeth and a second plate having a second plurality of teeth. The second plate is slidably coupled to the first plate. A motor assembly is configured to engage the second plate provide a lateral force to the second plate and cause horizontal oscillation of said second plate. Wheels are disposed on each side of the first and second plate. A lute pole is coupled to the first plate and includes a primary handle and actuator for controlling speed and power of the motor.

Device for collecting garden debris from the ground. The device includes a pair of bodies and a pair of handles. Each body defines opposed ends and a collection structure extending at least partially between the ends. The bodies are configured to be pivotally securable to each other about an axis arranged adjacent one of the ends of each body such that the collection structures are opposed and extend substantially radially away from the axis. Each handle is configured to be connected to one of the bodies at a position spaced radially from the axis. Operating the handles causes the bodies to pivot between an open position, to allow dragging the bodies along the ground to gather garden debris between the collection structures, and a closed to allow trapping the gathered garden debris between the bodies.
