A clamp structure for an auxiliary handle attachment includes a first female member adjacent to a first channel member comprising a first channel closed side along a tool axis to receive an elongated shaft of a tool along the tool axis; a first male member arm that pivots about a body axis parallel to a tool axis; a T-handle pivot along the first male member arm to define an arm axis parallel to the tool axis a threaded fastener that extends through the T-handle pivot; and a first wing nut mounted to the threaded fastener, the first male member arm pivotable about the body axis and the first wing nut pivotable about the arm axis such that the first wing nut is engageable with the first female member to clamp the first female member against the elongated shaft to clamp the elongated shaft against the first channel closed side.

A combination garden tool includes an elongate shaft extending along a central longitudinal axis. The shaft has a first end and a second end. A spade extends along the central longitudinal axis. The spade is attached to the first end of the shaft. A multi-tine cultivator extends from the second end of the shaft, generally orthogonally to the central longitudinal axis. A sickle extends from the second end of the shaft, away from the cultivator.

An adjustable shovel apparatus and method is disclosed which includes a frame assembly and a shovel assembly adjustable in relation to the frame assembly. The shovel assembly is in slidable communication with the frame assembly and can be repositioned in multiple configurations in relation to the frame assembly to allow a user to clear snow or debris of varying heights to be a surface without the need to lift and throw it.

A customizable shovel, including a telescopic assembly, including a first shaft section, a second shaft section movably disposed within a first end of the first shaft section, a plurality of adjustment buttons disposed on at least a portion of the first shaft section to extend the second shaft section from retracted to away from the first shaft section in response to depressing one of the plurality of adjustment buttons, a socket disposed on a second end of the second shaft section, and a blade connected to the socket to receive at least one item therein, an attachment assembly to removably connect to the blade, and a connecting assembly disposed on at least a portion of the attachment assembly to lock the attachment assembly to the telescopic assembly in a first position and unlock the attachment assembly from the telescopic assembly in a second position.

An embodiment provides a handheld implement, including: an elongated handle comprising a first end and a second end substantially opposite the first end; an implement head located at and mechanically attached to one of: the first end and the second end; and a light source mechanically coupled to and along a longitudinal axis of the elongated handle, wherein the light source is positioned at a location on the elongated handle such that a least a portion of light that emits from the light source illuminates an area proximate to the implement head. Other aspects are claimed and described.

A shovel includes a first shaft, a second shaft, and a shovel blade body. The shovel blade body has a concave front side, and a convex rear side having a shaft insert sleeve for receiving a lower end of the first shaft. The second shaft is configured to pivot relative to the first shaft, and can have adjustable length. A handle can be connected to an upper end of the second shaft and is rotatable. A toe push plate can be included proximate the shaft insert sleeve. The first shaft can be coupled to the shovel blade body with a spring. The cross section of the second shaft can be complementary to that of the first shaft so that the two shafts can be collapsed to be held by one hand comfortably.

A debris handling shovel or shovel attaching with a trapping member and a triggering device. The triggering device actuates the trapping member to secure debris collected in the head or scoop of the shovel. The trigger device releases the debris when desired. The triggering device is positioned to be easily operatable by a person holding the shovel in a standard grip.

Described herein is a weight or pressure measuring shovel. The shoveling apparatus has a broad blade assembly or scoop assembly including an elongate handle member. A coupler assembly is designed to couple the curved plate assembly to allow angular orientation or movement of the curved plate assembly to be adjusted relative to the handle member. A force transducer converts the weight or pressure of a material on the curved plate assembly into an electrical signal designed to communicate the weight or pressure of a material such as snow, sand, dirt, or ice. A control module in a housing mounted on the elongate handle is designed to receive electrical signals from the force transducer assembly or a load cell assembly. A display assembly is coupled to the electrical scale assembly and control module.

A panning tool is described and comprises a sifting scoop comprising an elongated half sphere of proportional dimensions. The left side wall, right side wall, and back wall of the sifting scoop define a reservoir for collecting sediment and holding precious metals and gems separated from the sediment during and after panning. The floor extends forwardly from the back side and can comprise riffles, furrows, or be flat. The panning tool comprises a connection body. The connection body is affixed to an interior face of the sifting scoop. Methods of using the panning tool and manufacturing the sifting scoop are also described.

The present invention relates to a sidewalk and driveway digging and boring bar device. The bar is designed for excavating a cavity underneath a sidewalk area to accommodate piping and wiring, and also for removing dirt and debris from the cavity. The bar features an elongated shaft having a first end and a second end, wherein a pointed head is permanently secured to the first end of the elongated shaft, and a rounded head portion is permanently secured to the second end of the elongated shaft. The pointed head has a pointed end for penetrating the sidewalk to create a cavity in the sidewalk and the rounded head is used for removing dirt and debris from the created cavity. The bar is inserted into the sidewalk by holding the elongated shaft and applying a downward force.
