TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of road operation and maintenance intelligent equipment, and particularly relates to a road intelligent environmental protection snow sweeping and deicing vehicle. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the increasing traffic in winter, efficiently and environmentally protecting removing road snow and ice has become an important issue to ensure traffic safety and smoothness. Although the existing mechanical force breaking method, chemical ice melting method, thermal ice melting method and high-pressure water jet deicing method have their own applications, they have different degrees of limitations in resource utilization, operation accuracy and system flexibility, mainly as follows:
[0003] 1. Strong resource dependence, lack of self-circulation ability. The existing high-pressure water jet deicing technology needs to rely on a vehicle-mounted water tank or external water supply. The water in the tank is easy to freeze in cold conditions, and the continuous operation time is severely limited by the water carrying capacity. The equipment generally lacks integrated mechanisms for real-time collection, processing and reuse of road snow / ice in the operation process, resulting in high dependence on external water sources or snow melting agents, high resource consumption, heavy environmental burden, and difficulty in achieving long-term and sustainable operation.
[0004] 2. Low operation accuracy, lack of adaptive adjustment. The high-pressure jet nozzle of the conventional equipment is mostly fixedly installed or only supports manual rough adjustment, and the jet angle, target distance and coverage range cannot be dynamically adjusted according to the real-time detected ice thickness, adhesion strength and residual ice conditions. When dealing with compacted snow, patchy ice and uneven road surfaces, it is easy to cause "missed breaking" or "excessive breaking", which not only affects the removal effect, but also causes invalid loss of medium and energy, and lacks an adaptive jet control system based on real-time identification.
[0005] 3. System integration is rigid, and module coordination is poor. Traditional snow removal vehicles mostly fix and integrate snow removal shovels, salt spreaders, jet devices and other components, and control them in linkage. They cannot independently and flexibly start, stop and adjust parameters of each functional module according to actual snow conditions, road conditions or stage task requirements. Such rigid control mode leads to poor adaptability of the equipment in complex road conditions, often resulting in excessive or insufficient functions, which reduces the overall operation efficiency and economy.
[0006] In summary, the existing technology faces the core contradiction of "high efficiency, environmental protection, no damage to the road, and economy" which is difficult to reconcile. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a new type of road snow sweeping and deicing technology and equipment to effectively solve the above problems. SUMMARY
[0007] To address the problems of high resource dependence and lack of self-circulation capability in existing technologies, this invention proposes an intelligent and environmentally friendly snow removal and de-icing vehicle. By integrating an ice and snow self-circulation collection and conversion system, it collects snow on the road surface in real time during operation and converts it into an ice particle abrasive jet source that can be sustainably utilized by the jet crushing mechanism. This achieves water self-supply and resource recycling, overcoming dependence on external water supply and the risk of water freezing.
[0008] To address the issues of low operational accuracy and lack of adaptive adjustment, this invention introduces an adaptive jet control system based on intelligent recognition. This system can identify the road surface after the initial cleaning, dynamically detect residual ice areas, and automatically adjust the path, angle, and target distance of the secondary jet to achieve precise secondary breaking and removal, avoiding both "missed breaking" and "over-breaking," improving cleaning efficiency and reducing energy consumption.
[0009] To address the issues of rigid system integration and poor module coordination, this invention adopts a modular independent control architecture. All functional mechanisms, such as snow and ice collection, jet crushing, snowplow clearing, and salting, can be started, stopped, and adjusted independently. They can be flexibly combined according to actual snow conditions, road conditions, and operational stages, thereby significantly improving the equipment's adaptability to different scenarios and overall operational efficiency.
[0010] The objective of this invention is achieved through the following technical solution:

The self-circulating snow and ice collection system is connected to the collectable front shovel mechanism and the snow and ice conveying unit. The snow and ice conveying unit is connected to the ice particle abrasive solution preparation unit. The ice particle abrasive solution preparation unit is connected to the front-mounted high-speed jet crushing mechanism and the adaptive high-speed jet crushing mechanism. The front-mounted high-speed jet crushing mechanism and the adaptive high-speed jet crushing mechanism are respectively fixed in front of the hydraulic adaptive de-icing mechanism I and the hydraulic adaptive de-icing mechanism II under the vehicle. The hydraulic adaptive de-icing mechanism I and the hydraulic adaptive de-icing mechanism II are connected to the bottom of the vehicle body. The salt spreading mechanism is connected to the spiral conveying salt storage tank unit through a pipe.
[0012] Furthermore, in the aforementioned intelligent and environmentally friendly snow removal and ice clearing vehicle, the self-circulating snow and ice collection system coordinates with the collectible front shovel mechanism via a collecting shovel motion connecting rod.

The front shovel stroke groove is used to connect to the rear roller rod of the conveyor belt I, so that when the self-circulating snow and ice collection system moves up and down, the conveyor belt I also expands and contracts simultaneously to ensure elastic connection. When the self-circulating snow and ice collection system is not working, the front shovel positioning chamfer cooperates with the front shovel V-shaped rod to make the structure more stable.
[0013] Furthermore, in the aforementioned intelligent and environmentally friendly snow removal and ice clearing vehicle, the front-mounted high-speed jet breaking mechanism includes a front-mounted nozzle mounting base, a front-mounted motor, a front-mounted slider, a front-mounted telescopic rod, a front-mounted mounting base plate, and a front-mounted ball screw. The front-mounted motor converts the rotational motion into linear motion of the front-mounted slider within the telescopic slider track of the front base by rotating the front-mounted ball screw, thereby directly driving the front-mounted nozzle mounting base to extend and retract vertically. The front-mounted mounting base plate is connected via a slider track structure. The front-mounted mounting base plate is fixed to the bottom of the vehicle body; the jet flows into the front flow channel from the front fluid inlet through a delivery pipe connection.

The snowplow is connected to the snowplow connecting ring via pins in snowplow connecting holes I and II. The snowplow hydraulic rod is connected to the snowplow connecting ring via pins in snowplow connecting holes III and IV. The snowplow hydraulic cylinder is fixedly connected to the snowplow mounting base plate, and the snowplow mounting base plate is fixedly connected to the bottom of the vehicle body. The hydraulic adaptive de-icing mechanism II has the same structure as the hydraulic adaptive de-icing mechanism I.
[0015] Furthermore, in the aforementioned intelligent and environmentally friendly snow removal and ice clearing vehicle, the adaptive high-speed jet breaking mechanism includes a rear mounting base plate, a rear telescopic rod, a rear connecting ring, a wedge-shaped nozzle mounting plate, a rear motor, a rear sliding connecting rod, a rear slider, and a rear ball screw. The wedge-shaped nozzle mounting plate is connected to the rear sliding connecting rod, which is coaxially connected to the connecting hole I via connecting rod I. The slide rail I is connected to the slide rail II to achieve a sliding connection with the rear connecting ring. The rear motor drives the rear sliding connecting rod to move along the wall surface by rotating the rear ball screw. The rear ball screw connecting rod I is internally threaded, the connecting rod II is connected to the connecting hole II, the rear telescopic rod is connected to the rear slider, the slider is slidably connected in the slide rail III, the rear mounting base plate is fixed on the vehicle body base, and the jet flows into the wedge-shaped flow channel from the rear fluid inlet through a conveying pipe.
[0016] Furthermore, in the aforementioned intelligent and environmentally friendly snow removal and ice clearing vehicle, the salt spreading mechanism includes a salt spreader housing, a salt spreader connecting rod, a salt spreading motor, and a spraying impeller; the salt spreading motor drives the spraying impeller to rotate through a coupling, the salt inlet is connected to the conveying pipe, and the salt spreader connecting rod is fixed to the rear of the vehicle body.
[0017] Furthermore, in the aforementioned intelligent and environmentally friendly snow removal and ice clearing vehicle, the spiral conveying salt storage tank unit includes a salt storage tank body, a conveying motor, and a conveying spiral rod. The conveying motor drives the conveying spiral rod to rotate through a coupling. The salt storage tank body is provided with a grooved inclined surface, characterized in that it is inclined from both sides of the inner wall of the tank towards the center, and is inclined from high to low in the same conveying direction as the conveying spiral rod. The conveying port is connected to the outlet pipe.
[0018] Furthermore, in the aforementioned intelligent and environmentally friendly snow removal and de-icing vehicle, the ice particle abrasive solution preparation unit comprises a jet storage tank, a longitudinal stirrer, a mixing stirrer, a heating vibrating screen baffle, a vibrating screen, and an inlet inclined block; the jet storage tank conveyor belt inlet is connected to conveyor belt III, the residue discharge outlet is located at the end of each vibrating screen base frame, and a debris temporary storage area is provided; the longitudinal stirrer and the mixing stirrer rotate within the jet storage tank via power transmission; the heating vibrating screen baffle is fixed on the vibrating screen, the vibrating screen is connected to the vibrating screen base frame, and vibration is achieved through a power device; the jet storage tank is connected to high-pressure jet generating unit I and high-pressure jet generating unit II respectively through conveying pipes.
[0019] Furthermore, in the aforementioned intelligent and environmentally friendly snow removal and ice clearing vehicle, the ice and snow conveying unit includes conveyor belt I, conveyor belt II, and conveyor belt III connected in sequence, as well as connecting rods and roller assemblies for installing, tensioning, and driving the conveyor belts.
[0020] Furthermore, in the aforementioned intelligent and environmentally friendly snow removal and de-icing vehicle, the snow removal process involving the collection of ice particles and abrasive solution jets to break up the road surface includes the following steps:
[0021] S1: Preparations before startup;
[0022] S11: Select the start-up mode according to the jet content in the jet storage tank. If the jet content is sufficient, directly lower the retractable front shovel mechanism and jump directly to step S3.
[0023] S12: If the jet content is insufficient, the collectible front shovel mechanism will be retracted, and the collecting shovel's moving connecting rod will drive the self-circulating ice and snow collection system to a suitable position.
[0024] S13: The front shovel connection hole III rotates around the front shovel connection hole IV to a suitable position, and the snow is shoveled in through the inlet of the collection shovel, and after being initially crushed by the rotation of the screw rod, it is conveyed to the collection shovel conveyor belt and enters the ice and snow conveying unit.
[0025] S2: Start the ice and snow conveying unit and the ice particle abrasive solution preparation unit respectively through the electrical control cabinet;
[0026] S21: The collected ice and snow are conveyed into the carriage via the ice and snow conveying unit and enter the ice particle abrasive solution preparation unit through the inlet inclined block. The ice and snow first fall onto the vibrating screen, where it vibrates along the inclined screen base, gradually breaking the ice and snow into fine particles. During this process, the heated vibrating screen baffle helps melt large, difficult-to-break ice blocks, while impurities such as stones that cannot pass through the screen slide down the inclined surface from the residue discharge outlet into the debris temporary storage area. Finally, the screened ice and snow form a jet mixing solution in the jet storage tank, which is periodically stirred by the longitudinal stirrer and the mixing stirrer to ensure uniform solution density.
[0027] S3: Start and control the front motor and the rear motor to lower the front high-speed jet breaking mechanism and the adaptive high-speed jet breaking mechanism to the appropriate positions respectively. The road ice layer intelligent recognition system identifies the position of the untreated ice surface on the road and transmits the signal to the corresponding spray nozzle of the adaptive high-speed jet breaking mechanism in the direction of travel. It dynamically adjusts the angle of the jet nozzle and performs secondary jet breaking.
[0028] S31: The front motor rotates the front ball screw through the coupling, which in turn drives the front slider to move linearly within the front telescopic slider slide, thereby driving the front telescopic rod to move up and down, thus adjusting the distance between the front high-speed jet crushing mechanism and the ground.
[0029] S32: The rear motor drives the rear ball screw to rotate via a coupling, which in turn drives the rear sliding connecting rod. This connecting rod, through its slide rail II, engages with the slide rail I of the wedge-shaped nozzle mounting plate, converting the rotational motion into linear motion, thereby driving the rear telescopic rod connected to the rear sliding connecting rod to move up and down. During this process, the rear telescopic rod is guided by the rear slider sliding within slide rail III. Finally, the rear connecting ring and the rear sliding connecting rod are hinged together via connecting hole I and connecting rod I, and simultaneously, the rear connecting ring and the rear telescopic rod are hinged together via connecting rod II and connecting hole II, converting the aforementioned vertical motion into adjustment of the angle of the wedge-shaped spray mounting plate relative to the ground.
[0030] S4: Adjust the distance between the hydraulic adaptive de-icing mechanism I and the hydraulic adaptive de-icing mechanism II and the ground. Power is provided by the snowplow hydraulic rod and snowplow hydraulic cylinder. Adjust the different extension lengths of the two hydraulic mechanisms to make the hydraulic adaptive de-icing mechanism I and the hydraulic adaptive de-icing mechanism II present a certain angle with the vehicle's direction of travel, so as to clear the broken ice and snow to one side of the road.
[0031] S5: Start the screw conveyor salt storage tank unit and salt spreading mechanism;
[0032] S51: The structural feature of the screw conveyor salt storage box unit is that it is inclined from both sides of the inner wall of the box towards the center, and in the same direction as the conveying screw, it is inclined from high to low. The conveying motor drives the conveying screw to rotate through the coupling, so that the medium in the box continuously approaches the conveying port and enters the conveying pipe. The salt from the conveying pipe enters the salt inlet of the salt spreading mechanism, and is spread onto the cleaned road surface under the high-speed rotation of the spraying impeller driven by the salt spreading motor through the coupling to prevent secondary icing.
[0033] The beneficial effects of this invention are:
[0034] 1. Achieving resource collection and utilization significantly improves operational sustainability and environmental friendliness. Addressing the problems of existing technologies such as heavy reliance on external water sources, easy freezing of stored water, and limited operating time, this invention utilizes a real-time snow and ice collection and conversion system to process road snow into a sustainably usable jet medium, achieving self-sufficiency in jet sources. This not only significantly extends continuous operating time and reduces dependence on external water supplies and de-icing agents, but also reduces operating costs and environmental burden.
[0035] 2. It possesses intelligent identification and adaptive breaking capabilities, improving removal accuracy and efficiency. Addressing the problems of traditional equipment with fixed jet angles, which easily lead to "missed breaking" or "over-breaking," this invention utilizes a road surface ice layer intelligent identification system to dynamically detect residual ice areas and automatically adjust the jet path, angle, and target distance to achieve precise secondary breaking. This design effectively avoids repetitive operations and energy waste, and enhances adaptability to different ice layers and road surfaces.
[0036] 3. A modular, independent control architecture enhances system flexibility and scenario adaptability. Addressing the issues of rigid functional integration and poor coordination in traditional snowplows, this invention designs snow collection, jet crushing, snowplowing, and salt spreading mechanisms as independently controllable and adjustable modules. Users can flexibly start, stop, and combine various functions according to actual road conditions and operational stages, thereby achieving efficient and economical operational configurations in complex icy and snowy scenarios.
[0037] 4. Forming an environmentally friendly closed-loop operation reduces the overall impact on roads and the environment. Based on the aforementioned self-circulating and precise operation capabilities, this invention only requires preventative salting in the final stage, significantly reducing the amount of de-icing agent used, minimizing damage to the road structure and surrounding environment, and effectively preventing secondary icing, thus achieving a combination of efficient de-icing and long-term protection.

[0063] S11: Select the start-up mode according to the jet content in the jet storage box 1201. If the jet content is sufficient, directly lower the collectable front shovel mechanism 15 and jump directly to step S3.
[0064] S12: If the jet content is insufficient, the retractable front shovel mechanism 15 is retracted, and the collection shovel motion connecting rod 103 drives the self-circulating ice and snow collection system 1 to be lowered to a suitable position.
[0065] S13: The front shovel connection hole Ⅲ10201 rotates around the front shovel connection hole Ⅳ1503 to a suitable position, and the snow is shoveled in through the collection shovel inlet 10202, and is crushed by the initial rotation of the screw rod 101 and conveyed to the collection shovel conveyor belt 1405 to enter the ice and snow conveying unit 14.
[0066] S2: Start the ice and snow conveying unit 14 and the ice particle abrasive solution preparation unit 12 respectively through the electrical control cabinet 10;
[0067] S21: The collected ice and snow are conveyed into the carriage via the ice and snow conveying unit 14, and then enter the ice particle abrasive solution preparation unit 12 through the inlet inclined block 1206. The ice and snow first fall onto the vibrating screen 1205, which vibrates along the inclined vibrating screen base 120104, gradually breaking the ice and snow into fine particles. During this process, the heated vibrating screen baffle 1204 helps to melt large ice blocks that are difficult to break, while impurities such as stones that cannot pass through the screen slide down the inclined surface from the residue discharge outlet 120102 into the debris temporary storage area 120103. Finally, the screened ice and snow form a jet mixing solution in the jet storage tank, and is stirred regularly by the longitudinal stirrer 1202 and the mixing stirrer 1203 to ensure that the solution density is uniform.
[0068] S3: Start and control the front motor 302 and the rear motor 605 to lower the front high-speed jet breaking mechanism 3 and the adaptive high-speed jet breaking mechanism 6 to the appropriate positions respectively. The road surface ice layer intelligent recognition system 16 identifies the position of the untreated ice surface on the road surface and transmits the signal to the spray nozzle of the adaptive high-speed jet breaking mechanism 6 in the corresponding direction of travel, dynamically adjusts the angle of the jet nozzle and performs secondary jet breaking.
[0069] S31: The front motor 302 rotates the front ball screw 306 through the coupling, which further drives the front slider 303 to move linearly in the front telescopic slider slide 30104, thereby driving the front telescopic rod 304 to move up and down to adjust the distance between the front high-speed jet crushing mechanism 3 and the ground.
[0070] S32: The rear motor 605 drives the rear ball screw 608 to rotate via a coupling, which in turn drives the rear sliding connecting rod 606 to move. This connecting rod, through its slide rail II 60303, engages with slide rail I 60404 of the wedge-shaped nozzle mounting plate 604, converting rotational motion into linear motion. This drives the rear telescopic rod 602, connected to the rear sliding connecting rod 606, to move up and down. During this process, the rear telescopic rod 602 is guided by sliding within slide rail III 60101 via the rear slider 607. Finally, the rear connecting ring 603 and the rear sliding connecting rod 606 are hinged together via connecting hole I 60301 and connecting rod I 60601. Simultaneously, the rear connecting ring 603 and the rear telescopic rod 602 are hinged together via connecting rod II 60302 and connecting hole II 60201, converting the aforementioned vertical motion into adjustment of the angle of the wedge-shaped spray mounting plate 604 relative to the ground.
[0071] S4: Adjust the distance between the hydraulic adaptive de-icing mechanism I4 and the hydraulic adaptive de-icing mechanism II7 and the ground. Power is provided by the snowplow hydraulic rod 403 and the snowplow hydraulic cylinder 404. Adjust the different extension lengths of the two hydraulic mechanisms to make the hydraulic adaptive de-icing mechanism I4 and the hydraulic adaptive de-icing mechanism II7 present a certain angle with the vehicle's direction of travel, so as to clear the broken ice and snow to one side of the road.
[0072] S5: Start the screw conveyor salt storage tank unit 11 and the salt spreading mechanism 8;
[0073] S51: The spiral conveyor salt storage box unit 11 is characterized by its inclination from both sides of the inner wall of the box towards the center, and its inclination from high to low in the same direction as the conveying spiral rod 1103. The conveying motor 1102 drives the conveying spiral rod 1103 to rotate through the coupling, so that the medium in the box continuously approaches the conveying port 110102 and enters the conveying pipe. The salt from the conveying pipe enters the salt inlet 80101 of the salt spreading mechanism 8, and is spread onto the cleaned road surface under the high-speed rotation of the spraying impeller 804 driven by the salt spreading motor 803 through the coupling to prevent secondary icing.
