BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a weeding machine for scratching and pulling out weeds growing on the ground.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art FIG. 4 shows an example of a conventional weeding machine. This conventional weeding machine has a plurality of claws 105, 105, 105 for weeding the tip of a handle 101. Is provided. The gap L between the claws 105, 105, 105 is formed so as to be substantially evenly spaced from the claw base portion 105a to the toe portion 105b. Also, each claw 105, 105, 105
105A, 105A facing each other in
As shown in FIG. 5, from the pulling side of each claw 105 to the non-pulling side
It is formed so as to be parallel to (the direction of arrow AB).

[0003]

However, in the conventional weeding machine shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, each claw 105, 105, 10
Since the gap L between the claws 5 is formed at substantially equal intervals from the claw base 105a to the toe part 105b, the claws 105, 1
When the grass is pulled out with 05, 105 and the grass is small (or small), the grass slips through the gap L between the claws 105, and there is a problem that the grass cannot be pulled out well. is there. Further, in this weeding machine, since the facing surfaces 105A, 105A of the claws 105, 105 are parallel from the puller side to the anti-puller side, pebbles, etc. may be present in the gap between the claws 105, 105 during the weeding work. There is also a problem that the foreign matter is likely to be clogged and the work for removing the foreign matter becomes troublesome.

In view of the above-mentioned problems of the weeding machine, the present invention makes it possible to easily pull out even small grass, and to prevent foreign matter such as pebbles from being easily clogged between the nails during weeding work. The purpose is to provide a weeding machine made possible.

[0005]

The weeding machine of the present invention is a weeding machine in which a tip of a handle is provided with a plurality of claws for weeding, and the gap between the claws is provided on the base side of the claws. It is characterized in that it is formed in a wedge shape so that it becomes narrower toward each other, and that the interval between the facing surfaces of the mutually adjacent claws becomes wider toward the side opposite to the pull tab.

[0006]

According to the weeding device of the present invention, the gap between the claws has a wedge shape that narrows toward the base side of the claws, so that when the grass is scratched, it is sandwiched between the claws. The claws move to the front side with respect to the grass being grassed, and at that time, the grasses are gathered in the narrow part on the base side of the nails, and the grasses are less likely to slip through the gaps between the claws. Also, since the distance between the facing surfaces of the adjacent claws is made wider toward the side opposite to the puller side, foreign matter such as pebbles that has entered the space between the claws when weeding is clogged within the space. Instead, you will pass through as is.

[0007]

[Effect of the Invention] Therefore, according to the weeding machine of the present invention, the grass can be gathered by the narrowed portion on the base side between the nails when weeding, so that the grass can be reliably pulled out from the ground. In addition to the effect that it can be done, foreign matter such as pebbles will not be clogged between the facing surfaces of each claw, so there is no need to remove the foreign matter in the gap, and weeding work can be performed continuously .

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS A preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3. A weeding machine X of this embodiment is a tip of a handle 1 for gripping by hand as shown in FIG. A claw member 10 for removing grass is attached to the portion.

In this embodiment, the handle 1 is made of wood and the claw member 10 is used.
Is made of steel, and both are fixed by a pin 7.
In another embodiment, the handle 1 and the claw member 10 may be integrally formed of steel.

The claw member 10 is integrally formed with a base material 12 to be inserted into the tip portion of the handle 1 for attachment and three claws 15, 15, 15 for removing grass at the tip of the base portion 12. is doing.

Each of the claws 15, 15, 15 has an appropriate length (for example, a length of about 3 to 5 cm) and is formed by slightly bending in an arc shape. It should be noted that one of the claws located in the central portion is formed to be slightly longer than the two left and right claws. In this embodiment, the three claws 15 are used, but in other embodiments, a plurality of three or more claws 15 may be used.

The claw member 10 includes claws 15 and 1 which are adjacent to each other.
It is formed into a bird's claw shape so that there is a gap S between the five. That is, the claw member 10 is formed in a wedge shape so that the gap S between the claws 15 and 15 becomes narrower from the tip 15b side of each claw 15 toward the base 15a side. The gap S between the claws 15 and 15 is, for example, the tip portion 1 of the claws 15 and 15.
The distance between 5b and 15b is about 10 to 15 mm, while the distance between the bases 15a and 15a of the claws 15 and 15 is almost zero.

Further, as shown in FIG. 3, the respective claws 15, 15, 15 are opposed faces 15A, 15 of the claws 15, 15 which are adjacent to each other.
The interval A is formed to have a substantially mountain-shaped cross-section so as to widen from the puller side (arrow A side) toward the anti-puller side (arrow B side) by an appropriate distance. That is, in this embodiment, the distance between the facing surfaces 15A and 15A of the claws 15 and 15 is the distance W ₁ on the side opposite to the pull tab.
Is formed to be wider than the pull-side spacing W ₂ by about 2 to 4 mm.

The weeding machine X of this embodiment has the following actions. That is, the clearance S between the claws 15, 15, 15
Is formed in a wedge shape so as to become narrower toward the base 15a side of the claw 15, so that when the grass is weeded by scratching each claw 15,15,15, the base between the claws 15,15 is The grass is gathered in the narrowed portion, so that the grass is less likely to slip between the nails and the grass can be reliably pulled out. Also, the claws 15 and 15 that are adjacent to each other
The distance between the facing surfaces 15A and 15A of the
Since it becomes wider toward the side), foreign matter such as pebbles is not clogged between the claws 15 during the weeding work, and the weeding work can be continuously performed.
