Abstract
A particulate-incorporating attachment for a drop spreader is provided that includes a two-portion mount bracket, an implement holder, and a rake/brush and optionally includes wheels. The bracket portions are connected to form a mount bracket over the rest brace of the drop spreader. The mount bracket mounts the implement holder, which supports the rake/brush in a suitable position to assist in the incorporation of infill material into the space between the grass tufts of synthetic turf or to assist in the incorporation of other dropped particulates into synthetic or natural turf or onto the ground.
Claims19
An attachment for a drop spreader support rest, comprising:
- a mount bracket comprising a proximal bracket portion connectable to a distal bracket portion that connect together over a segment of said drop spreader support rest;
- an implement holder supported by said mount bracket;
- a rake/brush supported by said implement holder;
- wherein said rake/brush is removably attachable to said implement holder.
An attachment for a drop spreader support rest, said attachment comprising:
- a mount bracket comprising a proximal bracket portion and a distal bracket portion;
- wherein said distal bracket portion comprises a distal forward panel and a distal upper flange;
- wherein said distal upper flange comprises right and left distal notch edges defining right and left distal bracket flange notches;
- wherein each of said right and left distal bracket flange notches accommodates a segment of said drop spreader support rest;
- and wherein said distal forward panel comprises a set of distal bracket hole edges defining a set of distal bracket holes;
- an implement holder attachable to said mount bracket;
- and
- a rake/brush attachable to said implement holder.
An attachment for a drop spreader support rest, said attachment comprising:
- a mount bracket comprising a proximal bracket portion and a distal bracket portion;
- wherein said mount bracket comprises at least one flange configured with right and left notch edges defining right and left flange notches;
- wherein each of said right and left notches accommodates a segment of said drop spreader support rest;
- wherein said mount bracket comprises opposing first and second end members;
- an implement holder attachable to said mount bracket;
- a rake/brush attachable to said implement holder;
- a first wheel attached to said first end member;
- and
- a second wheel attached to said second end member.
