Abstract:
The beach umbrella tool comprises a T-shaped armature with an auger blade surrounding the bottom portion of a vertical main armature. A bearing at the top of the main armature may be held with one hand while the other hand is used to move a handle located at the end of a horizontal armature in circular motion. The resulting rotation of the T-shaped armature causes the auger blade to rotate and thereby remove sand from the beach beneath the beach umbrella tool. The bottom of a beach umbrella may be placed into the resulting hole.

Claim (Index 15):
The beach umbrella tool according to  claim 14 wherein the auger blade is a helical screw blade that acts as an inclined plane and forces the sand up the auger blade as the main shaft is rotated; wherein once the auger blade has moved the sand to a height that is above the level of the beach, the lack of sides on the auger blade allows the sand to fall off of the auger blade and onto the beach next to the hole; wherein the movement of the sand creates the hole into which the bottom of the beach umbrella is inserted.
