ABSTRACT:
Standard shovels, particularly shovels used in deep tillage implements, vibra chisel or vibra shank cultivators and the like tend to push or roll the soil ahead in front of the shovel leading to high wear and heavy draft conditions. The present shovel is V-shaped with a relatively high center thus giving a plowing effect and turning the soil over and away upon each side thereof. A substantially centrally located depression is formed when the shovel is pressed out thereby forming a recess on the front side and a flattened bearing surface on the rear side thus providing a good anchoring and bearing area when bolted through the flattened portion and onto the shank. The bolt heads are protected and the invention can be incorporated also on shovels with wings or sweeps on each side of the high center central portion.
