Abstract:
A drill attachment (1) for tilling soil has an extended drill shaft (10) that is coupled with a till plate (30). The combination may be driven by an ordinary hand drill. Drill shaft (10) has a stabilizer tip (11) that protrudes beyond till plate (30). Till plate (30) includes a plurality of teeth (32-34, 36-38) that dig into and work top soil, while a generally planar disk-shaped body member (39) at the top of till plate (30) prevents till plate (30) from sinking below the surface of the soil. Teeth (32-34, 36-38) are stamped from till plate (30), forming openings in the generally planar disk-shaped body member (39). These openings and other optional openings (35) cooperate with the teeth (32-34, 36-38) to further break up clumps of soil, and help to balance forces from the teeth (32-34, 36-38) pulling into the soil against the force of the body member (39) that resists sinking into the earth. Optional weed-out and hole tools are also disclosed.

Целью изобретения является повышение эффективности рыхления почвы, повышение производительности труда и снижение физических нагрузок. Новым в конструкции является то, что средний зуб второго ряда выполнен «Г» образной формы и концом выдвинут вперед по сравнению с другими зубьями.
Abstract:
Изобретение относится к инструментам для обработки почвы и может быть использовано в сельском хозяйстве и на дачных и приусадебных участках, как для переработки целинных участков, так и для осенней и весенней перекопки почвы, а также для уборки корнеплодов и рытья канав при посадке в них деревьев и кустарников. Лопата, содержит лезвие и составной черенок, одна из частей которого соединена с лезвием, а другая - с рукояткой (ручкой). Составные части черенка соединены между собой под углом и закреплены посредством жесткого звена. Жесткое звено выполнено в виде изогнутой трубы, балки или стержня фасонного сечения. Лопата может иметь дополнительную рукоятку (ручку), соединенную с лезвием гибкой регулируемой по длине тягой. При таком выполнении лопаты облегчается перекопка грунта.
Abstract:
A fastener (10, 100, 200) is disclosed. The fastener (10, 100, 200) includes a housing (12, 202), wherein the housing (12, 202) forms a housing cavity (28, 210), wherein the housing cavity (28, 210) includes at least one recess (32, 214a, 214b); a cage (16, 206) at least partially disposed in said housing cavity (28, 210), wherein an outer surface (246) of the cage (16, 206) is spaced apart from an inner surface (212) of the housing (12, 202) that forms the housing cavity (28, 210), wherein the cage (16, 206) defines a cage cavity (34, 216), and a plurality of passages (38, 220,220a, 220b) aligned with said at least one recess (32, 214, 214a, 214b); a plurality of retaining members (14, 204, 204a, 204b) at least partially retained within said plurality of passages (38, 220, 220a, 220b); and a plunger (18, 208) at least partially disposed in said cage cavity (34, 216), wherein said plunger (18, 2080) is at least partially movable within said cage cavity (34, 216) between a first position to cause said one or more retaining members (14, 204, 204a, 204b) to be displaced radially outwardly thereby mechanically coupling said housing (12, 202) to said cage (16, 206), and a second position to allow said one or more retaining members (14, 204, 204a, 204b) to be displaced radially inwardly thereby allowing said housing (12, 202) to be uncoupled from said cage (16, 206).

Abstract:
The present invention provides a hand tool for providing ergonomic support via a brace structure that is pivotally connected to a first end of an intermediately-disposed handle. A stem extends between and couples a working element of the tool to a second opposed end of the intermediate handle. The hand tool is thereby modifiable in its operating and storage configurations to most efficiently meet the needs of the user.
