opening 12 is also provided in the turning
plow, said opening registering with the
opening 8 of the drill opener 5 when the
turning plow is in operative position. A
5 locking bolt 13 may then be inserted through
the registering openings 8 and 12. If de-
sired, the inner face of the turning plow 9
may also be provided with a shoulder 14,
said shoulder being so arranged that the
10 lower end of the drill opener 5 will spring
into engagement therewith when the stem
of the headed stud 11 reaches the contracted
end of the key-hole slot 7, thereby locking
the parts in operative position.
15 A sweep attachment 15 may be used inter-
changeably with the turning plow attach-
ment 9, said sweep attachment being adapted
to be used for wiping out the midcales, or as
a hoe. This sweep is also formed of a single
20 piece of sheet material, and includes rear-
wardly diverging side wings 15a. The mid-
dle of the sweep has a reinforcing rib 16
pressed outwardly therefrom, said rib being
adapted to fit over and receive the rib 6 of
25 the drill opener 5 when the sweep attach-
ment is applied to the drill opener. A
headed stud 17 projects rearwardly from the
sweep for engagement with the key-hole slot
8, and an opening 18 in the sweep is adapted
30 to register with the opening 8 of the drill
opener for the reception of the locking bolt
13 when the sweep attachment is in opera-
tive position. The sweep attachment may
be made in any desired size, either large or
35 small, and the configuration thereof may
vary, as desired.
Having thus described the invention, what
I claim as new and desire to secure by Let-
ters Patent, is:-
40 1. A device of the character described in-
cluding a handle, a drill opener carried by
one end of the handle and having a longib
tudinally extending rib pressed therefrom,
said drill opener being provided with a key-
45 hole slot, a working tool detachably applied
to the drill opener and having a longitudinal
rib pressed therefrom which engages the
longitudinal rib of the drill opener, a headed
stud projecting from the working tool and
50 arranged to interlock with the key-hole slot
of the drill opener, and a fastening memberfor locking the working tool upon the drill
opener.
2. A device of the character described in-
cluding a handle, a drill opener carried by 55
one end of the handle and arranged at an
angle thereto, said drill opener having a
longitudinally extending rib pressed there-
from and being provided in the rib with a
key-hole slot, a working tool detachably ap- 60
plied to the drill opener and having a longi-
tudinal rib pressed therefrom which engages
the longitudinal rib of the drill opener, a
headed stud projecting from the working
tool and arranged to interlock with the key- 65
hole slot of the drill opener, and a shoulder
projecting from the working tool and ar-
ranged so that the point of the drill opener
will spring into engagement therewith when
the headed stud of the tool reaches the con- 70
tracted end of the key-hole slot.
3. A device of the character described, in-
cluding a handle, a drill opener carried by
one end of the handle and arranged at an
angle thereto, said drill opener having a 75
longitudinal rib pressed forwardly there-
from and being provided in the rib with a
key-hole slot and an opening,. a working
tool detachably applied to the drill opener
and formed with a longitudinally extending 80
forwardly pressed rib which fits over and re-
ceives the rib of the drill opener and has an
opening therein adapted to register with'the
opening of the drill opener, -a headed stud
projecting from the- working tool and ar- 85
ranged to interlock with the key-hole slot
of the drill opener, a shoulder projecting
from the working tool and so arranged that
the end of the drill opener will -spring into
engagement therewith when the -headed stud 90
reaches the contracted end of the key-hole
slot, and a locking bolt passing through the
registering openings of the drill opener and
working tool.
In testimony whereof I have signed my 95
name to this specification in the presence of
two subscribing witnesses.
