A snow removing device is disclosed which is particularly intended for use in the manual removal of snow from the exteriors of motor vehicles. The device includes a head having an internal core surrounding by a sheath. The sheath is constructed of an expanded, cellular, polyethylene foam material, and the core is of a different material. An elongated handle extends from the head, and the handle is affixed to the core. The overall head provides a large snow removal area in a lightweight device which will not scratch or mar an automotive finish. The cellular, polyethylene sheath constitutes a relatively large portion of the overall head.

A snow removing device comprising: an elongated head having a front side and a rear side; said head having a length and a height, the height extending transverse to the length, said head having a large snow removing portion extending in the direction of its length and a small snow removing portion extending in the direction of its height; said head including a rigid core and a resilient sheath surrounding and completely encapsulating said core, said core having a block-like configuration, said sheath having front and rear sides which define the front and rear sides, respectively, of said head, said head having an outer thickness dimension extending in perpendicular relationship to said length and height of said head and in the general direction which said handle extends, said core including an inner thickness dimension extending in the same direction as said outer thickness dimension of said head, said outer thickness dimension being between 1.5 and 2.5 times said inner thickness dimension, so that said inner thickness of said core constitutes a substantial portion of said outer thickness of said head; said sheath being constructed of an expanded, cellular polyethylene foam material, said core being of a material different from that of said sheath; an elongated handle extending from said head; said core including means for attaching said handle thereto, said handle being directly attached to said core by said attaching means, said handle being attached to said core only by said direct attachment to said core; said handle extending from said core through one side of said sheath; said attaching means including a threaded socket in said core and a threaded end on said handle, said threaded end cooperatively engaging said threaded socket, said threaded socket having a depth which constitutes at least a substantial portion of said inner thickness of said core, whereby a strong, secure and rigid connection is effected between said core and said handle and a strong and substantial core is provided to lend strength to the snow removing device.
