Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to an ice shovel that can be used for both chopping and shoveling, belonging to the technical field of ice shoveling tools. Background Art

[0002] In northern regions, if the snow is not cleared in time after winter snowfall, a certain thickness of ice layer will form on the road surface. If not cleared in time, it will cause pedestrians on the road to slip and vehicles to skid. People usually use tools such as ice shovels for ice removal operations. Generally, an ice shovel with serrations at the front end is first used to chop the ice (break the ice), and then a flat shovel blade is used to shovel the ice (collect the broken ice). It is necessary to replace two tools to complete the ice removal work, which is time-consuming and laborious, and the cost is high.

[0003] To solve the above problems, Chinese Patent ZL201120085195.6 provides a multifunctional ice and snow shovel, but the problem is that it is necessary to repeatedly invert the ice and snow shovel to complete the ice removal work during use, which is time-consuming and laborious. Chinese Patent ZL202022836793.4 provides a forest road ice and snow removal shovel. The ice is broken by sliding the ice-breaking shovel on the bucket, reducing the labor input. The bucket is stepped on to make the shovel blade shovel the ice forward, but its structure is complex and the manufacturing cost is high. Content of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide an ice shovel that can be used for both chopping and shoveling. The front end of the shovel body is an integrally formed wavy sawtooth, which can perform longitudinal ice chopping (ice breaking) and at the same time can also perform transverse ice shoveling (collecting broken ice), solving the above problems existing in the background art.

[0005] The technical solution of the utility model is as follows:

[0006] An ice shovel that can be used for both chopping and shoveling, comprising a shovel body and a handle connected to each other. The front end of the shovel body is an integrally formed wavy sawtooth, and the waves of the wavy sawtooth are arranged perpendicular to the surface of the shovel body.

[0007] Further, the wavy sawtooth is composed of a plurality of arc-shaped protrusions continuously rising and falling on the surface of the shovel body. The rear end of the wavy sawtooth is connected to the shovel body. The upper arc-shaped protrusions are the crests of the waves, and the front ends of the upper arc-shaped protrusions protrude forward to form saw-shaped pointed teeth. The lower arc-shaped protrusions are the troughs of the waves, and the front ends of the troughs form the tooth grooves of the wavy sawtooth.

[0008] Further, the front ends of the bottoms of all the arc-shaped protrusions are sharpened, and all the sharpened edges are connected together to form a wavy sharpened inclined plane.

[0009] Further, a transverse rib is provided at the part where the shovel body is connected to the wavy sawtooth.

[0010] Further, the shovel body is an isosceles trapezoid, with a shovel socket provided on one side of the upper base, the lower end of the handle is installed in the shovel socket, and one side of the lower base is a wavy sawtooth.

[0011] Further, both sides of the shovel body are bent upward to form a bucket-shaped structure.

[0012] Further, a number of longitudinal ridges are provided on the shovel body.

[0013] In the present utility model, a wavy sawtooth is provided at the front end of the shovel body. The strength of the sawtooth is increased by the wavy protrusion, avoiding the bending of the sawtooth during vertical ice chopping, which is more conducive to ice chopping. When ice chopping is required, the present utility model is longitudinally inserted into the upper surface of the ice layer, and the sawtooth at the front end of the shovel body is inserted into the ice layer to break the ice layer. When ice shoveling is required, the present utility model is horizontally inserted into the bottom of the ice layer, and the sharp edge at the front end of the wavy sawtooth is inserted into the bottom of the ice layer to shovel up the ice layer.

[0014] The positive effect of the present utility model: Two operations of ice chopping (ice breaking) and ice shoveling (collecting broken ice) can be completed by using one ice shovel, with a simple structure and low cost. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0016] Figure 2 is a schematic structural diagram of Embodiment 2 of the present utility model;

[0017] Figure 3 is a cross-sectional view of the wavy sawtooth of the present utility model;

[0018] In the figure: shovel body 1, handle 2, wavy sawtooth 3, arc-shaped protrusion 31, sawtooth 32, tooth groove 33, transverse rib 4, shovel socket 5, sharp edge inclined surface 6, longitudinal ridge 7. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0019] The following further describes the present utility model in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments:

[0020] Referring to the attached Figure 1 and 2 , a dual-purpose ice shovel for chopping and shoveling, comprising a shovel body 1 and a handle 2 which are connected to each other. The front end of the shovel body 1 is a wavy sawtooth 3, and the waves of the wavy sawtooth 3 are arranged perpendicular to the surface of the shovel body 1. Referring to the attached Figure 3, the wavy saw teeth are composed of a plurality of arc-shaped protrusions 31 continuously undulating up and down on the surface of the shovel body 1. The rear end of the wavy saw teeth is connected to the shovel body 1. The upper arc-shaped protrusions are the crests of the waves, and the front end of the upper arc-shaped protrusions protrudes forward to form saw teeth 32. The lower arc-shaped protrusions are the troughs of the waves, and the front end of the trough forms a tooth groove 33 of the wavy saw teeth 3. The bottom of the front end of all the arc-shaped protrusions 31 is sharpened, and all the sharpened edges are connected together to form a wavy sharpened inclined surface 6. The sharpened inclined surface 6 makes the front ends of the upper arc-shaped protrusions and the lower arc-shaped protrusions on the same inclined surface, avoiding ice leakage during the ice pushing process. At the same time, the sharpening makes the wavy saw teeth 3 sharper, facilitating ice chopping and ice shoveling.

[0021] Refer to the appendix Figure 1 , Example 1, the shovel body 1 is a plane of an isosceles trapezoid. There is a shovel socket 5 on one side of the upper base. The lower end of the handle 2 is installed in the shovel socket 5, and the wavy saw teeth are on one side of the lower base.

[0022] Refer to the appendix Figure 2 , Example 2, both sides of the shovel body 1 are bent upward to form a bucket-shaped structure, which is convenient for collecting broken ice and snow.

[0023] Preferably, there are several longitudinal ridges 7 on the shovel body 1 to increase the strength of the shovel body 1.

[0024] Preferably, there is a transverse rib 4 at the part where the shovel body 1 is connected to the wavy saw teeth 3. The transverse rib 4 is used to prevent the wavy saw teeth from deforming during the annealing process of the ice shovel production.

[0025] Preferably, the wavy saw teeth 3, the transverse rib 4, and the longitudinal ridges 7 are all integrally formed by a mold.

[0026] When using the present utility model for vertical ice chopping, the saw teeth 32 at the front end of the shovel body 1 quickly insert into the ice layer. The arc-shaped protrusions 31 increase the strength of the wavy saw teeth 3, avoiding the bending of the saw teeth 32 and being able to quickly break through the thick ice layer. When shoveling ice horizontally, the sharpened edge 6 at the front end of the wavy saw teeth 3 can quickly insert into the bottom of the ice layer, and the ice shoveling efficiency is higher.
