A field latrine assembly for defecating in privacy in a remote location includes a pop up tent that has an entrance extending into an interior of the pop up tent thereby facilitating a user to enter the pop up tent. A foldable chair has a seat portion which has a hole thereby facilitating the user to defecate through the hole when the user sits on the seat portion. The foldable chair is positionable inside of the pop up tent when the pop up tent is in the deployed condition to facilitate the user to defecate in privacy. The foldable chair includes a pair of legs that is pivotally coupled to a frame. A duffel bag is included for storing the pop up tent, the foldable chair and the foldable shovel for storage.

The present application relates generally to storage devices, and specifically to a combined shovel and storage device for backcountry or all-terrain use comprising a shovel blade and a complementary portion, whereby the shovel blade and the complementary portion are configured to releasably secure together thereby defining a hollow space for storage therebetween. The combined shovel and storage device further includes a shovel shaft, wherein the shovel shaft is of a dimension that can be stored within the hollow space for storage, and wherein the shovel shaft contains a first end with a shovel handle and a second end opposite the first end configured to releasably secure to the shovel blade. Also disclosed is a method of using a combined shovel and storage device to shovel earth, snow, water, or any combination thereof.

A rake and shovel apparatus. The apparatus includes a rake comprising a first shaft and a rake head, and a shovel comprising a second shaft and a shovel head. A first fastener is disposed on the first shaft, and a corresponding second fastener is disposed on the second shaft. A connector is configured to removably secure to an upper end of each of the first shaft and the second shaft, such that the apparatus can be stored in a hanging configuration if desired. In use, the first fastener is configured to removably secure to the second fastener so as to removably secure the rake to the shovel, defining a volume between the rake head and the shovel head that can be used to receive and transport solid materials.

A gardening tool includes an elongated body having a first end and a second end. An arm attachment portion is coupled substantially at the first end of the elongated body. The arm attachment portion is configured to at least partly wrap around a user's forearm. The tool also includes a pivotally adjustable handle that is coupled to and extends substantially laterally from the elongated body. The handle is disposed between the first and the second end of the elongated body. The tool further includes a pad that is coupled to the elongated body. The pad is disposed between the handle and the arm attachment portion, and its position is adjustable along a longitudinal axis of the elongated portion. A adapter mechanism is disposed at the second end of the elongated body. The adapter mechanism is configured to allow for interchanging of gardening tool heads.

An adjustable hand trowel comprising a handle, a blade-neck assembly comprising a blade and a neck, and an adjustable fastener system is disclosed herein. The adjustable fastener system provides a secure method of fastening the blade-neck assembly to the handle wherein the adjustable hand trowel is able to withstand forces typically exerted when using a trowel for digging and wherein the user may readily dig in confined spaces. The disclosed adjustable hand trowel further allows a user to adjust the relative position of the blade and handle using an adjustable fastener system that may be operated using one hand. The adjustable hand trowel may thereby allow the user to dig in an ergonomic and efficient manner in applications that would otherwise be unsuitable for ergonomic and efficient digging.

A sand bag shovel having an elongated rod connected to a connecting member and the connecting member attached to a scoop. The scoop has a pair of sidewalls and a front wall with tapered panels that form a peak. A funnel is used with the scoop that has a flange that extends outwardly from a top opening.

A multipurpose drain tool including a drain shovel DROVEL? and pry bar. The multipurpose drain tool includes a drain tool shaft, a proximal pry bar, and a distal drain shovel. The drain tool shaft carries at least one rubber hand grip, a proximal end cap, and a distal end cap. The pry bar is mounted to and extends outwardly from the proximal end cap. The drain shovel is mounted to and extends distally from the distal end cap. The multipurpose drain tool of the present invention offers a solution to the problem of clearing subsurface drains to restore drain functionality.

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 soil conserving shovel and grate attachment that aid a user in removing and reclaiming soil from a recently removed plant by abrading the plant's rootball back and forth against the shovel and apparatus. In addition, methods of using a shovel and grate attachment instruct a user how to efficiently reclaim soil from a plant rootball. Also described is a method of manufacturing a shovel or grate attachment that can be used for rootball thinning,

A combination yard tool assembly for raking, receiving and moving leaves includes a blade that has a scalloped edge. The scalloped edge is used to rake leaves and receive the leaves on the blade. The blade comprises a front side, a back side, a top edge, a bottom edge, a first lateral edge and a second lateral edge. The front side is concavely arcuate from the bottom edge to the top edge. The bottom edge comprises a serrated edge that includes a plurality of alternating concave indentations and points. The indentations extend inwardly from the front edge a distance greater than 1.5 inches. A plurality of ridges is attached to the front side and extends outwardly therefrom. A handle is attached to the blade and extends upwardly therefrom.
