Abstract:
Material moving devices include ergonomic improvements that reduce extraneous work required and lessen strain experienced by users. Material moving devices include a head for receiving material to be moved and a first elongated handle with a grip at the far end for gripping by a first hand of a user. A second handle is coupled to the head for gripping by a second hand of the user. The second handle can be pivotably coupled to the head in a location or locations generally longitudinally aligned with the expected location of the center of mass of the head when loaded with material to be moved.

Claim (Index 8):
The material moving apparatus of  claim 9  wherein the second handle is constructed and arranged to provide a stiffness which is used to hold the first and second ends in place in first and second coupling structures located at the first and second coupling locations, wherein the spacing between the first and second ends when the handle is in a rest position is smaller than the spacing between the first and second coupling structures, wherein the second handle is constructed and arranged so that the spacing between the first and second ends must be increased in order to fit the first and second ends into the first and second coupling structures.
