ABSTRACT:
A pump impeller especially useful for moving heavy sediment and debris includes a drive plate having a series of blades mounted on one side thereof and radially extending from the center of the drive plate. Each of the blades is provided with a material retainer secured to the leading edge of the blade in the form of a winglet. The winglet forces the sediment and debris outwardly to be driven by the leading edge and across the tip of the blade. Each of the top or inlet edges of the blades is sharpened to cut weeds or debris which may then be pumped with the sediment.
