The grass comb is a manual tool used to maintain green spaces. Specially designed to extract all the plants that are not lawn grasses. The invention at hand is a rigid metal corrective comb, easy to use, durable and accessible to all. The tool is equipped with long teeth, especially designed and affixed to a long handle. The grass comb enables its user to reach the targeted plants by channelling them by their stems through its labour quickly and easily extracting them from the lawn while remaining upright. The efficiency of the labour allows only the grass to remain. The user remains upright, puts the comb down on the ground and pulls towards themselves while making the teeth penetrate to the base of the plants. The undesirable plants are imprisoned, become uprooted and give way at the level of the stems when a perpendicular leaf, branch or stem blocks the passage. Only the grasses come out of the comb intact, because of their narrow leaves. My invention is a new tool offering a new technique and is designed to maintain lawns, gardens, rock gardens and under trees where the use of pesticides is proscribed. It offers a solution to herbicide overuse.
Le peigne à pelouse est un outil manuel utilisé pour entretenir les
espaces verts. Conçu spécialement pour extraire toutes les
plantes qui ne sont pas des graminées des pelouses.
L'invention concernée se rapporte en un peigne curatif en métal
rigide, simple d'usage, durable et accessible à tous. L'outil est
muni de longues dents spécialement conçues et fixées à un long
manche. Le peigne à pelouse permet à son utilisateur d'atteindre
les plantes ciblées en les acheminant dans son oeuvre par leurs
tiges, de les extraire des pelouses facilement et rapidement tout
en restant debout. L'efficacité de son oeuvre ne laisse passer que
les graminées. L'utilisateur reste debout, dépose le peigne au sol
et tire vers lui en faisant pénétrer les dents à la base des plantes.
Les plantes indésirables sont emprisonnées, déracinent et cèdent
au niveau de leurs tiges, lorsqu'une feuille, une branche ou une
tige perpendiculaire bloque le passage. Seules les graminées
sortent intactes du peigne curatif, car leurs feuilles sont étroites.
Mon invention est un nouvel outil offrant une nouvelle technique
et est conçu pour entretenir les pelouses, les jardins, les rocailles
et sous les arbres où l'emploi d'herbicide est à proscrire. Il offre
une solution à l'emploi abusif d'herbicide.
