Combined shovel and rock breaking chisel for an excavator

An excavator tool assembly which is pivotally mounted on an elongated boom, comprising, an elongated hydraulic hammer chassis having an elongated rock breaking chisel at the lower end thereof, the chassis at its upper end having a substantial lateral dimension with two spaced corners, one of which is pivotally connected at one end of the boom, and the other corner pivotally connected to a movable mechanical displacement element, a clearing blade having a plane bottom and adjacent side walls extending substantially perpendicular thereto to define an inner hollow scoop-shaped surface, the clearing blade being adjustably mounted on the chassis such that in its inoperable stored position it is disposed with its plane bottom immediately beside the chassis with its inner hollow scoop-shaped surface facing and surrounding the chassis with the plane bottom surface disposed parallel to the axis of the pivotal connection between the boom and the chassis in both its upper stored position above the lower surface of the chassis and also in its lower operating position, in both positions the clearing blade being substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the chisel, the blade having means thereon for providing locking of the blade in both the inoperable upper stored position and the lowered work position, movement of the chassis about its pivot support providing for movement of both the chisel and the blade, the clearing blade being supported and guided for movement between the upper and lower positions along a flat guide plate, the exterior surface of the plane bottom being connected to the guide plate for reciprocable movement.
