    摘要: A wing plow assembly may include a base configured for attachment to a vehicle; an upper arm rotatable about a first axis; a lower arm rotatable about a second axis; a lifting member rotatable about a third axis; a support pivotally attached to the upper arm and the lower arm; and an actuator pivotally attached to the base and the lifting member; wherein the actuator is configured for raising and lowering the support by engagement of the lifting member with the upper arm; wherein the lifting member is rotationally decoupled from the upper arm such that the upper arm is disengageable from the lifting member. At least one of the first axis and the second axis may be configured to be substantially parallel to a longitudinal axis of the vehicle.

    摘要: A vehicle accessory hitch assembly for attaching an accessory to a vehicle. The vehicle may include a frame and a bed mounted to the frame. First and second base rails may be disposed on the bed and coupled to the frame of the vehicle, and the vehicle may include a vehicle trailer hitch with a receiver for accepting a shank. In one embodiment, the vehicle accessory hitch assembly may be mechanically connected to each of the first and second base rails and the vehicle trailer hitch such that the vehicle accessory hitch assembly is immovable or stationary relative to the first and second base rails and the vehicle trailer hitch. In another embodiment, the vehicle accessory hitch assembly may be adaptable to connect to differently-configured base rails and vehicle trailer hitch constructions, including different horizontal and vertical spacing between the base rails and the vehicle trailer hitch.

    摘要: A snow plow system for an automobile features a frame connectable to a hitch receiver, a blade movable by an electrically powered actuator between a lowered snow-clearing position a raised transport position, a power unit placed within a trunk space of the automobile, a power connection line between the power unit and the actuator, and a wireless remote operable from a passenger cabin of the automobile. The power connection line traverses through a gasket sealed space between the trunk lid and trunk walls, thereby powering the device without any modification to the automobile. A flexible member connected between the actuator and the blade is operable to raise and lower the blade in a controlled manner under operation of the actuator, while allowing the blade to momentarily trip over ground level obstructions during use. A biasing mechanism forces the blade back into the snow-clearing position once the obstruction is cleared.
