Patent ID: 7946637

Claim:
A folding snow shovel comprising: a first curved surface member having a generally arcuate, elongated body with a first proximal edge, a second distal edge, two lateral sides and a width; a second, curved surface member having a generally arcuate, elongated body with a first proximal edge, a second distal edge, two lateral sides and a width, said second curved surface member's body curvature corresponding to the curvature of said first curved surface member; said first and second curved surface members rotatably coupled together adjacent each said member's first proximal edge, the axis of rotation extending substantially perpendicular to each of said first and second curved surface members' longitudinal axis; and said first and second curved surface members structured to move between a first, folded configuration, wherein said first and second curved surface members are nested together, and a second, extended configuration, wherein the chords defined by said first and second curved surface member bodies are at an obtuse angle.
