Description
FIELD OF INVENTION

The present invention relates to manual snowplows with a very particular triangle-shaped design for removing snow without much effort. Due to its triangular design, it allows the snow not to accumulate in front of the shovel, but rather makes the snow enter and be expelled simultaneously by one side of the snow shovel.

BACKGROUND OF INVENTION

Since man settled in places where snow is part of everyday life every winter, he has been concerned with inventing some tool that facilitates the removal of snow that accumulates around houses, businesses, roads, etc. That gift of nature that when it starts to fall makes our lives happy but then makes us have a very bad time when we slip and fall, also when we can't get out because our vehicle gets stuck due to so much accumulation of snow.

The work of removing snow is very exhausting, for this reason, there are countless snow removal tools on the market designed to make this work easier. There are manual, electric, gasoline, with wheels without wheels, and in an infinity of shapes and sizes. Manually operated snowplows use a front plow to remove snow, which requires a lot of effort when snow accumulates in front of the plow. Some shovels use wheels to help support the weight of snow accumulating in front of the shovel, but in the end, the effort is about the same. Another very particular detail of manual snow shovels is that when we move forward, the shovel tends to stop due to irregularities and grooves in the sidewalks of the area in which we are working, causing damage to the blade of the shovel, apart from all those difficulties, we must make more effort when doing the work.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

According to yet another aspect of the present invention, the triangular-shaped manual snow shovel is shown, which makes it a very useful and easy-to-use tool without much effort.

According to yet another aspect of the present invention, it doesn't need fuel or electricity to run.

According to yet another aspect of the present invention, no buttons or levers need to be moved for it to work. It is very versatile for efficient and rapid snow removal on sidewalks, driveways, commercial parking lots, houses, or anywhere. another place where snow removal is needed.

According to another aspect of the present invention, due to its triangular shape, it will penetrate the snow without any effort since its design allows all the snow that enters the blade to come out immediately with the same movement as forward without the snow accumulating in front of the shovel.

According to another aspect of the present invention. It is symmetrical at the top and bottom, which makes it easy to use on the left or right side when we need to remove snow.

Another aspect of the present invention, which has a particular detail, is that its two faces protrude in a rounded shape to protect the blade and prevent it from getting stuck.

According to another aspect of the present invention. It consists of two parts, the blade, and the stabilizer handle. This shovel can be used to expel snow from both the right and left sides easily and quickly, we just have to turn 180 degrees without having to move levers or buttons or loosen or tighten any screws; It is strong and resistant, very easy to use, has a very convenient size and shape, and is attractive to the eye.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Referring to the drawing, FIG. 1 shows the triangular shovel snow 100, there is seen assembled view of an exemplary tool according to the present invention. FIG. 1 Referring to the drawing, which shows the triangular snow shovel 100, there is seen an assembled view of the tool 100 according to the present invention. FIG. 1 shows all the components or parts of this tool. The handlebar 105 is fitted with a grip part 110, and it is extended straight and attached to the snow shovel by its left 120 and right 135 supports. It is fixed to the shovel 170 using a pin 120 and a clip. 130. It was decided to place a pin and a clip because due to the vibration caused by the scraping of the snow, the screws and nuts usually come loose and get lost, forcing us to suspend the work. The Handlebar 105 shall be constructed of an aluminum tube. Grip portion 110 can be constructed of any material suitable for a user to grip, such as plastic, soft foam, or polymer. sponge etc. 115 reinforcements, it is joined to the handlebar 110 with welding to strengthen its structure. The snow shovel's left base 120 and right base 135 are attached to the handlebar using pin 125 and clip 130. The snow shovel comprises: Left side having skies 160, right base 140, bottom face 145 has a blade in front. Central support 150 This central reinforcement serves as a vertical blade to break the ice block that is on the road and thus prevents it from blocking. The right side 155 and left side 140 has rounded corners 160 in front, the top face 165 has a blade in front. Triangular snow shovel 170 shall be constructed of non-stick cast aluminum or PVC.

Referring to the drawing, FIG. 2 snow shovel is shown in the front view, and the rear side is the opposite.

Referring to the drawing, FIG. 3 snow shovel is shown in the bottom view.

Referring to the drawing, FIG. 4 snow shovel shows a top view.

Referring to the drawing, FIG. 5 snow shovel shown in the left side view

Referring to the drawing, FIG. 6 snow shovel shown on the right side,

Referring to the drawing, FIG. 7 shows a longitudinal section A-A of a tool, The detail shows the blade that does not touch the ground due to the sides with rounded corners and thus does not allow it to get stuck due to the irregularities of the area where you are working.

Referring to the drawing, FIG. 8 displays an exploded view showing all its components.

Referring to the drawing, FIG. 9 shows how the tool works.

Claims

1. The highlight of this invention is the triangular shape of the snow shovel. This particular form of this invention forces the snow to come out on one of its sides without being able to accumulate in front of the shovel, making the force used very little and therefore the work can be done faster and with less effort.

2. The other point to highlight in this invention is the shape of its two left and right sides that end in a rounded shape, which serves to protect the blade, not allowing the blade to get stuck due to the irregularities of the area where we are working, as well as by the groove between the sidewalks.
