A pavement breaker including a mobile carrier vehicle is disclosed. A beam is provided having a resonant frequency with a pair of nodes spaced from the input and output ends of the beam and anti-nodes at each end and at the center. An oscillator is fixed to the input end of the beam to vibrate the beam at at least near its resonant frequency. The beam is mounted to the carrier vehicle at the node near the input end of the beam. A weight is superimposed over the beam at the node near the output end and has a bearing surface adapted to bear downwardly against the beam at that node. The weight is coupled to the vehicle to control the vertical position of the weight. A tool depends from the output end of the beam, and strikes the surface on which the vehicle rests at the vibration frequency of the beam as the tool vibrates responsively to vibrations of the beam. The reaction force generated by the tool is substantially absorbed by the weight and not transmitted to the carrier vehicle. The tool is provided with three segments, a middle segment which lies substantially horizontally while the beam is stationary, and forward and rear segments which are inclined upward. The forward section allows the tool to follow the ground, while the orientation of the real tool enhances the breaking action of the tool.

A pavement breaker comprising: a mobile carrier vehicle; a beam having a resonant frequency with a pair of nodes spaced from the ends of the beam and anti-nodes at each end comprising input and output ends respectively and at the center of the beam; an oscillator fixed to the input end of the beam to vibrate the beam at at least near its resonant frequency; means for mounting the beam to the carrier vehicle substantially at the node near the input end of the beam; a weight superimposed over the beam at the node near the output end and having a bearing surface adapted to bear downwardly against the beam at said node; means for coupling the weight to the vehicle to control the vertical position of the weight; and a tool depending from the output end of the beam so that the vibration of the beam causes the tool to travel along an angle of motion oblique to the horizontal, said tool having a first surface lying in a plane substantially parallel to that of the beam and a forwardly directed flanged surface contiguous with the first surface, said flanged surface being inclined at an angle from approximately 6°to 18°closer to horizontal than the angle of motion.
