INVEQTOR WITNESSES E'dil Call/0 7 ATTORNEY TED STTES EARL CANARY, on MYRTLE, IDAHO.
GARDEN HOE AND WEE-DER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Feb. 18, 1919.
Application filed September 10, 1917. Serial No. 190,601.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, EARL CANARY, a citizen of the United States and residing at Myrtle, in the county of Nez Perce and State of Idaho, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Garden Hoes and Weeders, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to agricultural implements, and more particularly to the type called hoes.
An object of my invention is to provide a device of the above mentioned character, which may be used for weeding.
Another object of my invention is to provide a device of the above mentioned character which may be employed to pulverize lumps of earth, in a more convenient way than has heretofore been experienced.
A further object of my invention is to provide a device of the above mentioned character, the blade of which is securely fastened to the handle, and the construction of the fastening prevents the blade from turning.
A still further object of my invention is to provide a device of the above mentioned character which is strong, durable, and inexpensive to manufacture.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will be apparent during the course of the following description.
In the accompanying drawings forming a part of the description, wherein like numerals are employed to designate like parts throughout the same,
Figure 1 shows a side view of the device, and the position of which, when used in hoeing.
Fig. 2 shows a section taken on line 22 looking at the rear of the main blade.
Fig. 3 is a section taken on the line 3-3 through the main blade, and shows the means of attaching the blade to the handle.
In the drawings, wherein for the purpose of illustration is shown a preferred embod1- ment of my invention, the numeral 1 lllCllcates the handle of a hoe and is provided at its lower end with an axial longitudinal recess 2. This recess is substantially oblong in cross section, for a purpose which will be hereinafter set forth. Adapted to be received in this opening, is a shank 3, comprising a rod bent upon itself, and having its free ends bent in opposite directions and at right angles to the rod, and bent again to project through apertures in blade 4:.
Arranged centrally in the blade at is a pair of apertures 5 adapted to receive the free ends of the shank 8, the ends of which are upset to securely hold the blade thereto.
The end of the shank 3, which is bent upon itself, is substantially oblong in cross section, and is inserted into the opening in the handle, thereby preventing the blade from turning.
The blade 4 is arranged at right angles to the handle, and, has a sharpened lower edge 6. The upper part of the blade 4: is bent'inwardly toward the handle at right angles to the blade 4 to form a weeding blade 7 This blade 7 extends at an angle to the main blade and is provided at its free end with a cutting edge 8. The main blade 4 is provided with an opening 9, the upper edge of said opening being adjacent the base 0 the blade 7, as more clearly shown in Fig. 2, to expose the lower edge of the weeding blade. When using the weeding blade, this opening 9 is in the rear of the cutting edge ofsaid blade, and as the weeds slide back upon the blade 7 they are allowed to pass through the opening. This eliminates the cut weeds from piling up around the weeds to be cut.
To use this implement in hoeing, it is held in the position as shown in Fig. 1. en it is desired to be used in weeding, it is held in the position opposite to that shown in Fig. 1, and drawn over the surface of the ground or used in a similar manner to that of the hoe. Often during the hoeing and weeding of a tract of land many lumps or clods of earth are desired to be broken and pulverized. If the operator becomes tired of the choppy hoeing movement, he may stand in an upright position and hold the handle of the hoe in a substantially perpendicular position with the ground, so that the lower edge of the blade 7 adjacent the opening 9, is in contact with the clod or lump of eart Then the hoe is given a vertical reciprocatory movement and the blade 7 is forced through the lump. The opening in the blade 4. allows a portion of the clod to pass therethrough, thus allowing the blade 7 to cut entirely through the clod.
It is to be understood that the form of my invention herewith shown and described is to be taken as a preferred example of the same, and that various changes in the shape, size, and arrangement of parts may be resorted to without departing from the spirit of the invention or the scope of the subjoined claim.
Having thus described my invention, What claim is:
A hoe comprising a handle, a' main blade secured thereto, said blade having one end thereof bent inwardly toward the handle at right angles and the main blade being pro- Vided with an opening at thebase of said bent portion and extending a substantial distance toward the center of the blade to expose the lower edge of the bent portion to form a clod pulverizer.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
