ABSTRACT:
A power assisted roofing shovel for removing shingles and attached nails from a roof to facilitate re-roofing. The shovel comprises a handle, a shovel blade, a trigger mechanism, and a mechanism for reciprocating the shovel blade. The mechanism for reciprocating the shovel blade may be an air hammer, an electric motor, a solenoid, or other power assisted device. The handle is an elongate hollow cylinder having the trigger mechanism attached to its rearward end, the shovel blade attached to its forward end, and a reciprocating mechanism there between. The shovel blade has a generally flat leading edge adapted for removing roofing materials and a rearward shank. A bracket member, extending rearward from the shovel blade, is adapted to slidably connect the shovel blade and the handle for reciprocal movement of the shovel blade.
