A manual snow pusher comprises a resilient rubber blade connected along the base of a hood-like snow diverting member of galvanized metal plate. An elongate handle is pivotally attached to a latch plate at the back of the snow diverting member, allowing the angle of the handle relative to the length of the blade to be adjusted. The handle has a spring loaded pin which can be engaged in any one of a series of holes formed around the arcuate periphery of the latch plate in order to releasably secure the handle in a selected angular position.

A snow pusher comprising an elongated, rigid snow diverting member, said member being generally in the form of a rectangular plate oriented vertically with the upper edge portion including horizontal portions inclined forwardly in the direction of snow to be pushed, an elongated blade extending continuously from end to end of said plate along the lower edge thereof and forming a vertical continuation of said plate, said blade being constructed of resilient, wear-resistant material for sliding movement on a surface from which snow is to be removed without catching on irregularities in said surface, a push handle extending in an upwardly inclined manner from said plate opposite to the inclined horizontal portions, and means connecting the lower end of the handle with said plate to enable the pusher to be manually operated by exerting longitudinal thrust on said handle, said means connecting the handle with said plate including an elongated angle iron member having a vertical flange attached to the rear surface of the lower edge of said plate and a horizontal flange extending rearwardly from the top edge of the vertical flange, fastening means extending through the lower edge of said plate, through said vertical flange and through the upper edge of said blade for removably mounting the blade from said plate, a mounting plate having an arcuate edge portion and a straight edge portion in opposed relation to the arcuate edge portion, the straight edge portion of said mounting plate engaging the rear edge of said horizontal flange of the angle iron member and including a downwardly extending mounting flange oriented vertically and a pair of forwardly projecting tabs oriented horizontally and engaged with the top surface of the horizontal flange, said mounting plate extending upwardly and rearwardly from the rear edge of said horizontal flange, said fastener means including centrally located fastener means extending through the mounting flange to securely mount the mounting plate from the plate forming the snow diverting member, said arcuate edge portion of the mounting plate including a depending flange with spaced apertures therein, said handle including a collar on one end, a pivot bolt extending through the end of the collar and said mounting plate at the center of curvature of the arcuate flange for pivotal movement about an axis inclined upwardly and forwardly toward the plate forming the snow diverting member, a reciprocating latch pin mounted on said handle adjacent the arcuate flange for engaging the apertures in the arcuate flange to enable adjustment of the handle about the inclined axis, spring means biasing the pin toward said arcuate flange, and an operating rod connected to the end of the pin remote from the arcuate flange and extending substantially throughout the length of the handle to enable retraction of the pin to enable angular adjustment of the handle.
