Manure shovel with rotating handle holder

European Patent Application EP1655111

The invention relates to a mechanism in which the shovel blade (5) of a manure shovel can rotate flexibly about the handle (1) of this manure shovel. The handle holder (2) is constructed in such a way that the manure shovel follows the movements of the handle (1) and therefore remains in contact with the ground surface. The rotating function of the handle holder (2) means it is possible to move the handle (1) at an angle in relation to the shovel blade (5). The rotatability of the handle holder (2) means that the shovel blade (5) can be turned over.
