ABSTRACT:
A one-pass bucket for digging a ditch by moving the bucket with its curved end down longitudinally of the proposed ditch, wherein the bucket includes a top wall, a bottom wall, a rear wall and a side wall diverging forwardly from the rear wall to an open front end of the bucket, the side wall being planar and defining a sharp acutely-angled corner with the bottom wall, the curved end wall, opposite the first side wall, extends convexly from the bottom wall to said top end at a forward edge thereof, and extending substantially diagonally upwardly therefrom at a rearward edge so that the forward edge of the curved end wall curves upwardly towards the plane of the top wall so as to intersect it non-tangentially and the rearward edge extends diagonally to intersect the plane of the top wall whereby a round bottom ditch is formed by rotating said curved end wall downwardly relative to the acutely angled corner and dragging the curved end wall through the soil longitudinally of the proposed ditch in a single pass.
