Apparatus for removing weeds

摘要

An apparatus for removing weeds or other plants comprising a handle having a foot operated lever pivotally coupled to one end. A plurality of tines are connected to the front end of the lever for insertion into the ground for removing weeds or other plants as the front end of the lever is pivoted upward. The tines extend through apertures formed through a clean off plate which is adapted to slide on the tines between a rearward position near the front end of the lever and a forward position near the front ends of the tines. As the handle is pivoted forward, the clean off plate is moved forward by the end of the handle to clean weeds, dirt, etc. from the tines.
