Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2022130425A1] The invention relates to a device which is connectable to the handle of a brush cutter in place of the cutting member thereof so as to convert the brush cutter into a portable shovel, for example to remove a snow cover. Said device, which can be defined as a "projecting member", comprises a pair of blades opposite each other and integral with a shaft connectable, through a pinion set, to the shaft housed in the handle of the brush cutter. Through the shaft housed in the handle and the pinion set, the brush cutter motor, when activated, rotates the blades of the device. A casing partially wraps the blades so as to allow the latter, during a rotary motion thereof, to pick up snow from the ground and project it far from the device. Instead of a pair of blades, the device object of the invention can include a plurality of bristles, so as to act as a rotating brush. The invention also relates to a portable shovel consisting of a brush cutter comprising the projecting member object of the invention in place of the cutting member thereof.
