A handle assembly for a manual tool such as a shovel includes an elongate, tubular handle member with a hollow connecting end portion and a screw hole formed in one side. The assembly includes an elongate, hollow connecting member with an exterior surface sized to fit snugly inside the hollow connecting end. A second screw hole is formed in the side of this primary section. The connecting member has an aperture formed in an outer end section. A screw is used to detachably connect the connecting member and the handle member. Ridges extending along opposite sides of the aperture engage flexible connecting members formed in an inner end of a socket of the tool member in order to connect the handle assembly thereto. There is also disclosed a metal connecting device which is elongate and substantially channel-shaped. Integral tabs mount this metal member in the elongate socket of the main tool section. A resilient catch on this connecting device projects inwardly between its two side portions and this catch engages a head of the screw in order to secure the handle assembly to the main tool section. |
