Benefits of technology

The present invention is a T-shaped post driver that is designed to drive or remove smaller diameter stakes into the ground without compromising their structural integrity. The invention is light weight and small, making it ideal for household applications such as putting up gardening fences. The invention is a continuation-in-part application of a previous patent application filed in July 2018. The technical effect of the invention is to provide a tool that can safely and efficiently drive or remove smaller stakes without causing personal injuries or damaging the stakes.

Problems solved by technology

Additionally, existing post drivers generally requires additional mechanical tools, such as pile drivers and gas-powered post drivers, due to the weight and large structure of post drivers.

Abstract

A T-shaped post driver includes a driver, a first handle, a second handle, and a post pullout opening. The driver is a tubular body that includes an opened end and a closed end. The first handle and the second handle are laterally connected to the tubular body and diametrically opposed of each other. This maximizes the distance between the left hand and the right hand of a user as the T-shaped post driver is utilized to drive smaller diameter or circumference posts that fit into the tubular body. The post pullout opening traverses through the tubular body and enables the removing process of a driven stake that is secured to the ground. Collectively, the opening and the driver enable removal of the stake. The T-shaped post driver is also covered with a protective coating to keep outside elements reacting with the driver, the first handle, and the second handle.
