  • Patent number: 5137317
    Abstract: Apparatus for attachment to a shovel for assisting lift thereof. A first pair of telescopingly length adjustable tubes is attached at one end to the shovel handle near the hand grip. A second pair of telescopingly length adjustable tubes is attached at one end to the shovel handle near the scoop. The first pair is attached at the other end to the other end of the second pair of tubes to provide a raised hand hold for increased mechanical advantage, wherein less bending is required. The adjustability of the pairs of tubes allows quick and easy attachment to shovels of various sizes universally. An elbow extension from the first pair of tubes allows a hand hold directly over the scoop. The elbow extension is rotatably adjustable to allow movement of a loaded scoop straight up or down or to the side, as desired, for unloading easily.
