摘要:
A roadway clearing device includes a plurality of rotatable members for dislodging material (snow or ice) from a roadway and a conveyer disposed rearward of the rotatable members to collect and laterally discharge material from the roadway. The device may include a plurality of shovel members disposed rearward of the conveyor to divert material from the roadway to the conveyor for lateral discharge. The rotatable members and/or shovel members may be disposed for separate movement from corresponding downward positions to upward positions relative to an interconnected support frame. Spring-loaded, extensible members may be provided to bias the rotatable members and/or shovel members to their corresponding downward positions. The rotatable members and/or shovel members are supportably and pivotably interconnected to a common support frame so as to separately pivot upward relative to the support frame from their respective downward positions, facilitating dislodgement, diversion, collection and discharge of material from a roadway.

A snowblower assembly for removing snow from a paved surface, such as roadways and airport runways. The snowblower assembly includes a snowblower assembly that defines an open interior that encloses a pair of rotating side augers and a rotating impeller. The snowblower housing includes a lower leading edge that is recessed behind the blade tips of the rotating impeller. The sidewalls of the snowblower housing each include a recessed lower sidewall edge to reduce the buildup of snow within the snowblower housing. A side plate extension is mounted to each of the sidewalls to modify the volume of the open interior defined by the snowblower housing to accommodate different types of snow.

A snow removal apparatus for safely removing snow from irregular surfaces covered with debris such as small stones and gravel. The snow removal apparatus includes at least one roller for spacing a snow removal member of said apparatus a fixed distance above a highest point on a surface below the snow removal member. In a first aspect of the invention, a ground shield and a roller are mounted on a lower portion of a snowblower. In a second aspect of the invention, a ground shield and multiple rollers are mounted on a lower portion of a snowblower which is carried on a small tractor.

A vehicle-mounted snowplow having a scoop with a large intake opening for receiving snow and air, which scoop tapers to a narrow throat connected to an outlet means whereby the speed of the air through the scoop is increased as the scoop narrows so that the air carries the scooped snow through the outlet means and discharges it from the outlet means at a high velocity.
