Abstract

Abstract A kit arrangement includes an elongate handle, including a first and second section angularly offset relative to one another to enhance access to an interior surface of a lawn mower surface, with a scraping head mounted to the handle, incuding a chisel and serrated scraping edge mounted to a leg of the head spaced from and orthogonally oriented relative thereto. A honing and wire brush are mounted to the head to enhance its effectiveness in a cleaning and sharpening operation relative to a lawn mower.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim 454 words
A scraping tool kit for cleaning and shaping of a lawn mower comprising, in combination, an elongate handle member, the elongate handle member including a planar longitudinally aligned central blade body orthogonally mounted to a forward end of the handle member, and the blade body including a first elongate chisel edge orthogonally aligned relative to the longitudinally aligned planar blade body at a lowermost terminal end thereof, and a serrated second edge arranged parallel to the first elongate chisel edge, wherein the serrated second edge is formed to a remote terminal end portion of the blade body, and wherein the remote end portion includes a planar leg, the planar leg integrally and orthogonally mounted to the planar blade body at an upper terminal end of the planar blade body spaced from the first chisel edge, and the planar leg terminating in the serrated second edge spaced and parallel to the chisel edge, and wherein the handle includes a first longitudinally aligned shank member integrally and angularly formed to a second longitudinally aligned shank members formed relative to one another defining an obtuse angle therebetween, and the planar leg arranged parallel to and spaced above the second shank, and wherein the planar blade body includes a first side edge and a second side edge arranged parallel to one another and orthogonally relative to the first chisel edge and the second serrated edge, and a rearwardly tapering interior surface of the blade body directed rearwardly of the first chisel edge in confronting relationship relative to the handle, and a socket orthogonally and medially mounted to an interior surface of the blade body secured to a forward end of the second shank defining the forward end of the handle, and further including a cylindrical hone adapted to sharpen a lawn mower blade of the lawn mower, the cylindrical hone including a radial slot directed interiorly and coextensively with the cylindrical hone from an exterior surface thereof interiorly thereof, and the cylindrical hone integrally mounted to the first side edge of the planar blade body, and further including a brush head mounted to the second side edge of the planar blade body spaced from the cylindrical hone to permit subsequent cleaning of a scraping procedure, and wherein the brush head includes a support base including a longitudinal slot, the longitudinal slot defined by a predetermined width equal to a predetermined width of the planar blade body defined by the first and second side edge, and the support base further including a matrix of wire bristles directed orthogonally and exteriorly of the support base remote from the longitudinal slot, and wherein the cylindrical hone and the support base are adhesively mounted to the respective first and second side edge.
Claim 2
