A multiple purpose tool assembly for attaching a variety of implements to a handle includes a handle and a rod that is removably coupled to the handle. The rod has a first portion that is slidably coupled to a second portion such that the rod has a telescopically adjustable length. A lock is removably coupled to the second section of the rod. The lock is biased into a locking position for retaining the rod at a selected length. Additionally, the lock is urgeable into an unlocked position thereby facilitating the length of the rod to be adjusted. A plurality of attachments is each selectively and removably attached to the rod for performing specific tasks.

An adapter and method for a tool, a mop or other cleaning equipment provides, selectively, a universal joint or pivoting joint, and one that is easily adjustable.

Various embodiments of pole devices are described having inner and outer poles or segments that allow for telescoping of the pole device. The inner and outer poles can each include one or more flat side wall portions, which act to thereby prevent rotation of the inner and outer poles with respect to each other. Each of the inner and outer poles can include one or more apertures that are sized to receive a pin to thereby couple the inner and outer poles. One or more gaps may be formed between the inner and outer poles that is sized to receive a burr of at least one of the inner or outer pole.

A pool cleaning system is provided. The system includes a pool pole. The system also includes an angled attachment device configured to connect to an end of the pool pole. The system additionally includes specialty tools structured to connect to an end of the angled attachment device. The angled attachment device is structured to connect to pool poles and to specialty devices in such a way to provide a plurality of angles to allow cleaning of pool surfaces and pool surface areas in an effective, efficient, and ergonomically friendly fashion for pool cleaning personnel. The pool cleaning system is arranged to change the angles at which the surfaces are being cleaned without having to change out components.

A roofing shovel for prying roofing shingles from a roof comprises a head and a shaft. The head defines opposite first and second end portions, opposite lateral sides, a top surface and an undersurface and comprises prying teeth at the first and second end portions. The shaft defines a top end and a bottom end removably mounted to the head and forms a first angle with a portion of the top surface between the first end portion and the shaft and a second angle with a portion of the top surface between the second end portion and the shaft. A connection assembly is interposed between and contiguous with the shaft bottom end and the head top surface. The shaft bottom end and the head top surface comprise respective mutual connectors for connecting the shaft at, at least, a first and a second position relative to the top surface. In one of the first and second positions the first angle is greater than the second angle, and in the other of the first and second positions the second angle is greater than the first angle.

In the presented solution, a garden tool includes a handle and a tool part, which handle is attached to the tool part to constitute a pulling handle. Then, the garden tool is mainly used by pulling from its handle. The handle includes an operating part which is grabbed when using the garden tool and a connecting part to attach the handle to the tool part. Between the operating part and the connecting part, there is an angle such that the axial direction of the operating part differs from the axial direction of the connecting part. The connecting part is further attached into connection with the tool part such that the connecting part is able to rotate around its axial direction in relation to the tool part.

A hand tool includes a tool handle and a tool head having a body portion, with the handle secured to a back support plate portion which connects normal relative to the back plate portion, a first plate portion extending from a first side of the back plate portion having a toothed edge and a second plate portion extending from a second side of the back plate portion having a level edge, wherein each of the plate portions extend at an angle of from between 5 to 45 degrees relative to the back support plate portion.
