ABSTRACT:
A carpet stripping device for stripping adhesively secured carpeting from an underlying subfloor. The device incorporates a base supporting a winch drum to which power is transmitted through a gearbox and mechanical clutch by a variable speed electric motor. The base incorporates a plurality of anchoring teeth fixed to the base's undersurface, and a wheeled supporting frame including a plurality of pivotally linked members selectively positionable between an elevated position whereby the assembly is movable, to an anchored position whereby the wheels are raised, lowering the base, such that the anchoring teeth penetrate underlying carpeting thereby securing the winch. A gripping jaw assembly having gripping teeth fixed to both upper and lower jaw elements is secured to a portion of carpet located remote from the anchored assembly, and connected by a winch cable. Activating the driving motor and engaging the clutch allows a user to easily strip carpeting by pulling the gripping jaw toward the anchored winch. A skid plate connected to the underside of the lower jaw element ensures that the jaw slides smoothly over any obstacles.
