Abstract: A wheelbarrow comprising a tray, a wheel, handles, and a leg unit reversely configurable into a deployed position and a compact position, so that in the deployed position, the wheel is rotatably mounted underneath the tray, the leg unit extends from the bottom wall of the tray, and the handles extend at the rear end of the; and, in the compact position, the wheel is detached from underneath the tray, the leg unit is retracted from the bottom wall of the tray, and the handles are retracted from the rear end of the tray; wherein, from the deployed position, the wheel is dismounted from arms underneath the tray that retract underneath the tray and are locked in the compact position on the bottom wall of the tray by manual action on a bracket, and the leg unit as well as the handles are retracted by unsnapping handle buttons.

Abstract: A snow shovel head, comprising an impeller rotately connected to an axle in a casing, a discharge chute and a chute handle, the casing comprising a back wall, a circumferential wall with an output to the chute, and a cut out bottom wall extending laterally from the back wall of the casing to the front opposite lateral corners of the bottom wall at the circumferential wall of the casing, and centrally from the back wall of the casing to the open front of the casing up to a tip recessed from said lateral corners; and the back wall extending to the lateral corners of the bottom wall at the circumferential wall; the impeller, when rotating, scooping up snow from the open front of the casing to an inner lateral surface of the circumferential wall of the casing towards the output to the chute for discharge of the snow.

Abstract: A tool, such as an impact tool, comprising at least a first and a second grip members extending generally parallel to the shaft on each side of the shaft and configured such that each one of the first and the second grip members is grasped by a user with a respective hand of the user, thereby centering the user above a ground surface to be worked with the tool, with the user's legs spreading about shoulder width, the user's head centered between the user's feet, both the user's hands level on a line generally perpendicular to the shaft, and allowing the user to precisely control the working head.

Abstract: A handle connecting part comprising a recessed surface below a top surface; a head connecting part comprising an opening, a lock comprising arms extending from a cap, each arm terminating in an inward finger, with a length La of the arms from a bottom surface of the cap to a top edge of the fingers respectively and the length Lu of the top surface of the handle connecting part, above the recessed surface, are selected in such a way that when the bottom surface of the cap abuts on the top of the head connection part, the fingers of the lock reach the second recessed surface below the first surface; the handle connecting part being locked within the opening of the head connecting part by resin.

Abstract: A push broom head comprising a base with a leading edge and a trailing edge separated by a width of the base; and tufts of bristles extending from a surface of the base; the tufts of bristles being arranged in rows of bristles of decreasing stiffness from the leading edge to the trailing edge of the base, with a leading row of very stiff bristles and a trailing row of bendable bristles, thereby combining increased ease of handling by a user for an efficient sweeping action, the leading rows loosening and moving heavier particles and the trailing rows loosening and moving finer particles not acted upon by the stiff leading rows.
