[0002] Snowplows are widely used as key equipment in winter road maintenance and snow removal. However, conventional snowplows lack dedicated storage structures for their extension hoses, which are prone to tangling and knotting during operation. This not only takes up space but also causes pipe damage and de-icing agent leakage, resulting in waste. When dealing with large-scale snow removal or situations requiring long-distance de-icing agent spraying, it is difficult to quickly access and install extension hoses, delaying the work progress. In addition, most snowplow spray guns do not have a fixed storage location when not in use and are easily damaged by bumps and knocks during movement if placed directly on the equipment. Therefore, improvements are needed to address these issues. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0018] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0019] Example: See Figure 1-5The snowplow of this utility model, which facilitates adjustment of the snow discharge direction, includes a housing 1. A base plate 2 is fixedly attached to the bottom surface of the housing 1. Two front wheels 3 are installed at one end of the bottom surface of the base plate 2, and two casters 4 are installed at the other end of the bottom surface of the base plate 2. A pressure pump 5 is installed at one point on the top surface of the base plate 2. A de-icing agent tank 11 is fixedly attached to the upper end of the inner wall of the housing 1. The inlet end of the pressure pump 5 is connected to a feed pipe 6, one end of which is connected to the de-icing agent tank 11. The outlet end of the pressure pump 5 is connected to a discharge pipe 7. The pressure pump 5 is model WFB-280, and this model of pump has a flow rate... With its large capacity and stable pressure, the snowplow can quickly deliver the snow-melting agent from the snow-melting agent tank 11 to the spray gun 13, meeting the needs of efficient operation. The front wheel 3, combined with the casters 4, allows the snowplow to steer flexibly in different terrains, improving the equipment's mobility. The pressure pump 5, inlet pipe 6, and outlet pipe 7, working in conjunction with the snow-melting agent tank 11, can quickly deliver the snow-melting agent to the designated location, achieving efficient spraying operations. The outer shell 1 and base plate 2 are made of high-strength engineering plastic, which is lightweight and wear-resistant, extending the equipment's service life while facilitating operation. One side of the inner wall of the outer shell 1 is solidified... The casing 1 is equipped with a hanging ring 8, and a triangular block is fixedly attached to the outer wall of one end. A mounting plate, V-shaped, is located on the bottom surface of the triangular block. Multiple telescopic rods 10 are mounted on the bottom surface of the mounting plate, and brushes 9 are fixedly attached to the telescopic ends of the rods 10. The shape of the brushes 9 corresponds to the mounting plate. The V-shaped mounting plate, combined with the appropriately shaped brushes 9, increases the cleaning area and improves snow removal efficiency. The height of the brushes 9 can be flexibly adjusted according to the snow thickness, ensuring effective cleaning of snow of varying thicknesses. The brushes 9 are made of nylon, which has good wear resistance and bending resistance. It can effectively remove snow and is not easily damaged; a hook is provided on the outer wall of the other end of the outer casing 1, and a spray gun 13 is placed on the hook. The connecting end of the spray gun 13 has an internal thread, and one end of the discharge pipe 7 has an internal thread that is correspondingly screwed to the connecting end of the spray gun 13; the spray gun 13 and the discharge pipe 7 are connected by internal threads, which facilitates quick disassembly and replacement of different types of spray guns 13 to meet diverse snow melting agent spraying needs; when not in use, the spray gun 13 can be hung on the hook of the outer casing 1 for easy storage, preventing collision damage during equipment movement, and improving the service life of the spray gun 13.

[0020] In this invention, a winding drum fixed to the outer wall of the outer casing 1 is provided on one side of the spray gun 13. A plug-in post is provided at the center of the winding drum shaft, and a gear groove is opened at one end of the plug-in post. A limiting gear 17 is engaged in the gear groove. A rotating shaft 19 is coaxially fixed to the top surface of the limiting gear 17. A rotating plate 18 is coaxially fixed to the rotating shaft 19. The rotating plates 18 are arranged in a cross shape around the outer wall of the rotating shaft 19. The inner wall of an external threaded ring is fixed to one end of the rotating shaft 19. A knob 16 is coaxially fixed to one end of the rotating shaft 19. Rotating the knob 16 can drive the rotating shaft. 19. The rotation of the external threaded ring controls the movement of the internal threaded ring 14, thereby fixing and loosening the extension pipe wound on the winding drum; the limit gear 17 is inserted into the gear groove for fixation, which can effectively prevent the internal threaded ring 14 from rotating due to vibration or other reasons during equipment operation, ensuring the extension pipe is firmly fixed and preventing the pipe from loosening or falling off; the rotating plate 18 assists in the winding operation, making the pipe winding neater and improving storage efficiency; a handle 12 is fixedly connected to one end of the top surface of the outer casing 1, and a fusion spout is opened at one point on the top surface of the outer casing 1. The de-icing agent tank 11 has a through hole for the filling port; the handle 12 facilitates the operator to push the snow sweeper, reducing labor intensity and improving operating comfort; the filling port of the de-icing agent tank 11 is exposed through the through hole on the top surface of the outer shell 1, which facilitates timely replenishment of de-icing agent, reduces downtime, and ensures the continuity of snow melting operations; an internal threaded ring 14 is screwed onto the external threaded ring, and multiple pressure plates 15 are fixed to the outer circumference of one end of the internal threaded ring 14. The pressure plates 15 are L-shaped, and multiple guide grooves are opened on the inner circumference of the winding drum. The outer circumference of the internal threaded ring 14 has protrusions. The guide block corresponds to the guide groove; when the external threaded ring is rotated, the internal threaded ring 14 moves axially under the cooperation of the guide groove and the guide block, which drives the L-shaped pressure plate 15 to press or loosen the extension pipe wound on the winding drum, making it easy to store and retrieve the pipe; the fixing effect of the limit gear 17 and the gear groove further ensures the stability of the position of the internal threaded ring 14. This structure can effectively prevent the pipe from loosening and shaking during equipment operation, avoid the leakage of de-icing agent due to pipe loosening, and at the same time ensure that the pipe can be quickly retrieved when needed, improving work efficiency.

[0021] Working Principle: When using this utility model, the operator controls the equipment through the handle 12. The front wheel 3 and the universal wheel 4 work together to achieve flexible movement. When moving, the telescopic rod 10 drives the brush 9 to contact the snow. The height can be adjusted as needed. The V-shaped mounting plate, together with the brush 9, expands the cleaning range and completes the initial gathering of snow. The pressure pump 5 operates synchronously, drawing snow-melting agent from the snow-melting agent tank 11 through the feed pipe 6 and sending it to the spray gun 13 through the discharge pipe 7. For close-range operation, the spray gun 13 is used directly for spraying. For long-distance spraying, the knob 16 is turned to drive the rotating shaft 19 and the external threaded ring, causing the internal threaded ring 14 to retract and loosen the extension pipe. After removing and reconnecting, the knob 16 is turned in the opposite direction, and the remaining pipe is re-fixed by the pressure plate 15 to ensure a stable connection. After the operation is completed, the spray gun 13 is hung back on the hook on the outer shell 1 for storage. Snow-melting agent is replenished through the filling port of the snow-melting agent tank 11 to prepare for the next use. Thus, the device is used.

[0022] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
