  • Patent number: 9528319
    Abstract: An ice auger reversal attachment which couples in-line with an ice auger to selectively reverse direction of the ice auger blade. The ice auger reversal attachment generally includes a mounting assembly adapted to be mounted to an ice auger motor. The mounting assembly includes a locking assembly which is adapted to selectively engage/disengage with an auger reversal assembly which is secured between the ice auger motor and the ice auger blade. Using the locking assembly and auger reversal assembly, the direction of rotation of the ice auger blade may be efficiently transitioned between a forward and reverse direction to aid in removal of slush when drilling a hole through a layer of ice.
