ABSTRACT:
A clamshell-type loader bucket has a pair of jaws with meeting edges that close together on one side of the bucket and on the bottom of the bucket to retain fine material such as sand, dirt or dry grain. The meeting edges on the bottom of the bucket are arranged to pick up such material from a flat supporting surface when the bucket is in vertical position. The bucket has a hopper bottom with inclined bevel plates on the jaws arranged to force material upward in the bucket as the jaws close on the material when the bucket is in vertical position.
