An animal waste rake is described that separates waste from animal bedding such as wood chips or straw. The manure rake apparatus of the invention includes a shaker assembly that both vibrates and shakes the rake to expeditiously separate the manure from the bedding.

Attachments for gloves or fingers is provided that allows for easier removal of grass clippings from the underside of a lawnmower deck. The attachments assist wearers and protecting the hands of wearers when cleaning and digging. The attachments may be installed on a dove with fingerstalls via a sleeve that fits over the fingerstalls and a tip that extends distally from the sleeve. Each tip may include a scraper attached such that the wearer can exert leverage on the scrapers to assist with cleaning or digging.

Embodiments are provided for a garden hoe that is made up of a head member that has a first point section, an intermediate section that is capable of forming an acute angle and attaching to an elongated handle, and a second point section. In one embodiment, the first point section is offset from the intermediate section, and the second point section is offset opposite to the first point section from the intermediate section. The first and second point sections further have a plurality of V-shaped notches and a plurality of V-shaped points.

A specifically configured gardening implement including an arced extension between the handle and the tool component. Such an implement permits greater versatility and facilitates typical gardening operations without losing any tool-using capabilities. Such an arced extension leads from a standard elongated, straight handle to the edge of a tool component, providing an ergonomic disposition of the tool in relation to the handle itself. In such a manner the arced extension allows for greater reach from a standing position, as well as the ability to adjust the actual handling of the overall implement to different angles without the need for uncomfortable and/or possibly. harmful repositioning by the user, as well. The inclusion of different tool components within the base handle/extension structure are also encompassed within the invention.

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 combination sod cutting and sprinkler cap removal tool includes a socket having a cavity and outer surface extending between proximal and distal ends, a cutting means disposed circumferentially about the distal end, an internal gear formed within the cavity, and a removable rotating means insertable into the cavity and configured to rotatably engage and be axially arrested by the internal gear whether the rotating means is inserted through the proximal end or the distal end. Interior gear teeth of the internal gear have both inner and outer engagement surfaces. When inserted through the proximal end, the rotating means engages the outer engagement surfaces to configure the distal end of the tool for cutting sod by rotation of the cutting means. When the rotating means engages the internal gear through the distal end, the proximal end of the tool is configured for removing a sprinkler cap by engaging the inner engagement surfaces with gripping surfaces of the cap.
