摘要

A device for removing accretions of cured concrete from within a mixing drum is herein disclosed. The device includes an impact tool mounted upon a boom that may be inserted into the interior of the mixing drum. The impact tool is mounted upon the boom such that it may be rotated about an axis that is substantially perpendicular to that of the boom. The boom itself may be rotated about an axis substantially aligned with its own the length. In addition, the boom may be rotated laterally and up and down by positioning mechanism.
