AI Technical Summary
Traditional shovel designs require significant grip strength and can be cumbersome to use, especially for children playing in sandboxes, as they often require perpendicular handling and lack ergonomic features for easy excavation and carrying.
A shovel bucket with a handle featuring a plate at the top, a grip in the center, and a claw at the tip, allowing for parallel grip placement and leveraging the weight and pulling motion for easier excavation, along with optional drain and mesh holes for improved functionality.
The design enables easier excavation by distributing force and weight effectively, allowing for comfortable use and increased ease of carrying, while the additional features facilitate excavation in moist sand and removal of stones.

Abstract
Description
[Technical field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a shovel bucket with a handle. [Background technology]
[0002] Conventionally, there has been a garden shovel (see Patent Document 1). Conventionally, a hand scoop is used with one hand (see Patent Document 2) Also, a clam-digging rake that can be used with one hand (see Patent Document 3) There was also a ride-on micro excavator toy (see Patent Document 4).

[0004] This caused the following problems: (a) The handle is used perpendicular to the body to dig, which requires grip strength and can cause blisters on the hands. (b) When playing in the sandbox, it was difficult to carry the sandbox, required skill to operate, and was difficult to dig. The present invention has been made to solve these problems.
[0005] A handle is provided on the top of the bucket, a plate is provided on the top of the handle, a grip is provided in the middle, and a claw is provided at the tip of the bucket. The above is a shovel bucket type scoop having the above features.
[0006] The grip is placed parallel to the body, making it easy to grasp and apply force, so you can easily dig at a level lower than your body by using your own weight, the pulling motion, and the leverage gained by placing the plate against your wrist. [Brief description of the drawings]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0008] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described. (a) A handle (2) is provided on the top of a bucket (1), a plate (4) is provided on the top of the handle (2), a grip (3) is provided in the middle, and a claw (5) is provided at the tip of the bucket (1). (b) Provide a drain hole (6) in the bucket (1). (c) A mesh-like hole (7) is provided in the bucket (1). The present invention has the above-mentioned configuration. When using the present invention, the operator grasps the grip (3), places his / her wrist against the plate (4), and performs excavation using the force of the lever and pulling force as well as the operator's own weight. By wearing it on your hand as shown in Figure 6, the grip (3) acts as the force point and the plate (4) acts as the fulcrum, making digging easier. Moreover, by wearing it on your hand and being able to operate it freely, you can feel like you are a bulldozer and have fun playing with it. In addition, by providing a drainage hole (6) as shown in FIG. 3, it is possible to excavate while draining even in sandy soil that contains a lot of water. Also, by providing mesh-like holes (7) as shown in FIG. 4, stones can be removed like a sieve. In addition, by installing a handle as shown in Figure 5, it is possible to dig deeper and for longer distances. The material can be plastic, silicone, wood, bamboo, paper, cardboard, or metal.
