ABSTRACT:
A laterally offset shovel assembly for the boom of a backhoe, or similar excavating machine, enables the backhoe to dig foundations or trenches in previously inaccessible locations. The assembly comprises a tubular member with a bucket securing to one end thereof and a pair of straps secured adjacent to the other end thereof. The conventional bucket is removed and the straps are bolted or otherwise secured to the free ends of the linkages extending along opposite lateral faces of the boom. The power cylinder on the boom transmits power through the linkages to the straps. The straps, in turn, pivot to oscillate the tubular member and the bucket secured thereon to perform digging operations in tight quarters.
