The apparatus comprises at least two frames removably attached to a distal end of the grader blade of the construction machine. The frame comprises a first end and a second end defining a predetermined length of the frame, wherein the first end of the frame is removably fastened to the grader blade. Further, the frame is configured to have a curved cross-section and obliquely attached to the distal end of the grader blade to clean the sloped ditch. The frame also comprises a plurality of holes to securely receive and fasten the first end of the frame to the grader blade.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
I claim: 
     
         1 . A grading apparatus removably attached to a construction machine, the apparatus comprising:
 at least two frames removably attached to a distal end of the grader blade of the construction machine, wherein the frame comprising:
 a first end and a second end defining a predetermined length of the frame, wherein the first end of the frame is removably fastened to the grader blade; 
   wherein the frame is configured to have a curved cross-section and obliquely attached to the distal end of the grader blade to clean the sloped ditch.   
     
     
         2 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the frame comprises a plurality of holes to securely receive and fasten the first end of the frame to the grader blade. 
     
     
         3 . The apparatus of  claim 2 , wherein the holes are sized to conformingly fit any grader blade of plurality of construction machines. 
     
     
         4 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , a first frame is attached to one end of the grader blade and a second frame is attached to the other end of the grader blade. 
     
     
         5 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the frame is obliquely attached to the grader blade at an angle of about 10 degrees. 
     
     
         6 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the frame is made from a compacted iron material. 
     
     
         7 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the frame is a one-piece unit configured to be attached to the plurality of construction machines. 
     
     
         8 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the construction machine can be at least one of any grader, tractor, scraper, bulldozer or anything with a blade with various sized blade options available. 
     
     
         9 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the frame attached to the grader blade is configured to perform at least one of a scraping, a shaping, a ditching and or a backfilling process. 
     
     
         10 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the frame further comprises a plurality of upright members fixedly attached along the predetermined length defined between the first end and the second end of the frame to allow the flow of ditch materials engaged by the frame.
