[0002] In recent years, extreme weather, such as snowstorms and freezing rain, has frequently occurred, which has had a serious impact on highway traffic and traffic safety. Continuous low temperatures and freezing rain have caused severe icing on the road surface, and even caused highway closures and traffic paralysis. In response to this situation, deicing with snow-melting agents, mechanical deicing, and thermal deicing are currently the main methods used to deal with it.

However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0025] The following is combined with Figure 1-2 This application is described in further detail.

[0026] The present application embodiment discloses a road deicing vehicle based on laser ice melting.

The swing component 3 drives the laser ice melting component 2 to swing horizontally, so that the laser ice melting component 2 swings and cuts the ice layer at the front position, and the ice layer forms a high-low temperature stress field and breaks to all sides.

[0027] A cleaning assembly 4 is provided at the bottom of the chassis body 1, and the bottom wall of the cleaning assembly 4 can be relatively in contact with the ground, thereby cleaning the ice blocks crushed by the laser ice melting assembly 2 at the front end of the vehicle. A blowing assembly 5 is also provided at the rear end of the chassis body 1, and the blowing end of the blowing assembly 5 faces the outside of the chassis body 1, thereby blowing the residual impurities cleaned by the cleaning assembly 4 to the roadside.

[0028] The swing assembly 3 includes a front bracket 31, which is fixed at the front position of the chassis vehicle body 1 and is arranged horizontally. An avoidance hole 311 is vertically opened on the front bracket 31, and the avoidance hole 311 completely penetrates the side wall of the front bracket 31. A plurality of laser ice melting assemblies 2 are arranged relatively on the front bracket 31, and the avoidance hole 311 is opposite to the laser ice melting assembly 2, so that the laser generated by the laser ice melting assembly 2 can pass through the avoidance hole 311 and irradiate the ground to break the ice layer on the ground.

[0029] The top wall of the head support 31 is provided with a conveyor belt 32, the belt body of the conveyor belt 32 is arranged horizontally, and a driving roller for driving the belt body of the conveyor belt 32 to rotate is arranged at the position of the head support 31 relative to the conveyor belt 32. The head support 31 is horizontally provided with a slide rail 33 below the conveyor belt 32, and the setting direction of the slide rail 33 is arranged along the width direction of the chassis vehicle body 1. The slide rail 33 is fixedly connected to the head support 31, and a slider 34 is slidably connected above the slide rail 33. The belt body of the conveyor belt 32 is fixedly connected to the slider 34, and the slider 34 is driven by the conveyor belt 32 to slide relatively on the slide rail 33.

[0030] A support bracket 35 is fixedly connected to the slider 34, and the support bracket 35 includes a vertically arranged first vertical rod 351, the bottom end of the first vertical rod 351 is fixedly connected to the slider 34, and a cross rod 352 is horizontally arranged on the first vertical rod 351, and a second vertical rod 353 is vertically arranged on the side of the cross rod 352 away from the first vertical rod 351, and the first vertical rod 351 and the second vertical rod 353 are arranged in parallel.

[0031] In some embodiments, the cross bar 352 is fixedly connected to the first vertical bar 351 , and the cross bar 352 is fixedly connected to the second vertical bar 353 , thereby improving the connection strength between the cross bar 352 and the first vertical bar 351 and the second vertical bar 353 .

[0032] In some other embodiments, the cross bar 352 is slidably connected to the first vertical bar 351, and a first locking nut is provided between the cross bar 352 and the vertical bar. When the cross bar 352 and the first vertical bar 351 are moved into place, the first locking nut is used to lock the positions of the cross bar 352 and the first vertical bar 351. The cross bar 352 is slidably connected to the second vertical bar 353, and a second locking nut is provided between the cross bar 352 and the second vertical bar 353. When the cross bar 352 and the second vertical bar 353 are moved into place, the second locking nut is used to lock the positions of the cross bar 352 and the second vertical bar 353. This allows the position of the second vertical bar 353 on the cross bar and the height of the cross bar on the first vertical bar 351 to be adjusted.

[0033] The laser ice melting assembly 2 includes a laser head 21, the emitting end of the laser head 21 is set downward, and the laser head 21 is fixed on the second vertical rod 353, so that the second vertical rod 353 drives the emitting end of the laser head 21 to be opposite to the avoidance hole 311, so that the laser head 21 can pass the laser emitted by the emitting end through the position of the avoidance hole 311 and irradiate the ground to break the ice layer on the ground.

[0034] A water cooler 6 is fixedly connected to the chassis body 1, and a temperature regulating tube is fixedly connected to one side of the water cooler 6, and the interior of the temperature regulating tube is relatively connected to the interior of the water cooler 6. A pump body is fixedly connected to the side wall of the water cooler 6, and the pump body can pump the medium located inside the water cooler 6 into the interior of the temperature regulating tube, thereby adjusting the temperature of the temperature regulating tube. The temperature regulating tubes are respectively located on the outside of the laser head 21, and the temperature of the laser head 21 is adjusted by the temperature regulating tube. When the temperature of the laser head 21 rises due to long-term use, the temperature of the temperature regulating tube is reduced by the low-temperature medium inside the temperature regulating tube, thereby cooling the laser head 21. When the temperature of the laser head 21 is low due to the influence of the external temperature, the temperature of the temperature regulating tube is increased by the high-temperature medium inside the temperature regulating tube, thereby heating the laser head 21.

[0035] The cleaning assembly 4 includes an ice scraper 41. A first hydraulic cylinder is provided at the bottom end of the chassis body 1 at a position relative to the ice scraper 41.

[0036] The first hydraulic cylinder and the second hydraulic cylinder are tilted and gradually tilted toward the side of the front end of the chassis vehicle body 1 along the height direction from top to bottom, so that the side wall of the ice scraper 41 is gradually tilted toward the side of the front end of the chassis vehicle body 1 along the height direction from top to bottom.

[0037] When the piston end of the first hydraulic cylinder is fully extended, the first hydraulic cylinder drives the bottom wall of the ice scraper 41 to abut against the ground surface, so that the ice scraper 41 can clean the ice layer broken by the laser head 21.

[0038] When the piston end of the first hydraulic cylinder is fully retracted, the first hydraulic cylinder drives the bottom wall of the ice scraper 41 to separate from the ground surface, thereby better driving the chassis vehicle body 1 to move.

[0039] When the extended length of the piston end of the second hydraulic cylinder is less than the extended length of the first hydraulic cylinder, the ice scraper 41 is tilted and arranged toward the outside of the chassis body 1 along the moving direction of the chassis body 1 .

[0040] The blowing assembly 5 includes a fan 51 arranged at the rear end of the chassis vehicle body 1, and the air outlet end of the fan 51 is fixedly connected to a blowing pipe 52, and the end of the air outlet pipe facing away from the fan 51 is fixedly connected to a nozzle 53, and the air outlet direction of the nozzle 53 is toward the outside of the chassis vehicle body 1.
