Problems solved by technology

However, this kind of snowplow is easily susceptible to jamming.
Moreover, as the snowplow blade does not have sufficient ability to remove efficiently ice that may adhere to the road, it is necessary to replace the snowplow with an ice rake and scrape the road a second time to r

Embodiment Construction

[0033]A novel vehicle-mountable front pivot snowplow will be described hereinafter. Although the invention is described in terms of specific illustrative embodiments, it is to be understood that the embodiments described herein are by way of example only and that the scope of the invention is not intended to be limited thereby.

[0034]A front pivot snowplow is provided. The front pivot snowplow generally comprises a snowplow blade with its bottom edge pivotally mounted to the plow blade by front pivots, an optional ice scraper and a vehicle attachment. During plowing, when the snowplow encounters obstacles, part of bottom cutting blades of the snowplow pivot and thereby permit the snowplow to ride over the obstacles. The location of the pivots is selected to limit as much as possible the upward movement of the plow when the cutting blade hits an obstacle, pivots and move downward and rearward with the object-avoiding pivotal motion.

[0035]Now referring to FIG. 1, an embodiment of a sno...

Abstract

A snowplow is presented and comprises a frame configured to be attached to a vehicle with a vehicle attachment for pushing the snowplow in a longitudinal direction, a main blade connected to a forward portion of the frame, the main blade including radius of curvature and at least one cutting blade disposed at a bottom portion of the main blade in a ground-contacting configuration disposed in a positive rake angle in substantial continuity with the radius of curvature of the main blade, the at least one cutting blade being pivotable about a pivot axis, wherein the pivot axis is located in front the main blade in an horizontal and transversal direction

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]The present patent application relates to an is claiming priority from U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62 / 753,328, entitled “SNOWPLOW AND ICE SCRAPER AND METHOD THEREOF”, filed at the United States Trademark and Patent Office on Oct. 31, 2018, the content of the '328 application is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0002]The present invention generally relates to snow and ice removing machines. More particularly, the present invention relates to a vehicle-mounted snowplow in which the snowplow is provided with a front pivot and optionally with an ice scraper.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0003]Snowplow assemblies are commonly mounted to a variety of vehicles during winter season in order to efficiently remove snow from paths, sideways, roadways and other areas. Actually, now in the market, there are various kinds of vehicle-mounted snowplows. Examples of conventional snowplow assemblies are provid...
