However, due to the slippery roof surface, workers must take appropriate protective measures. Manual snow removal is inefficient and has poor safety. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a metal roof drainage and snow removal structure to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a metal roof drainage and snow removal structure, characterized in that it includes a traveling track, a snow cutting plate, a snow shovel bracket, a flow guiding membrane, a traveling stabilizing shovel, and a structural reinforcing rod. The snow cutting plate is vertically positioned and installed on the inner side of the traveling track frame. The snow shovel bracket is positioned and installed at the front end of the traveling track. The flow guiding membrane is hung on the frame of the snow shovel bracket. The traveling stabilizing shovel is installed on the outer side of the rear end of the traveling track through a connecting rod.

[0005] Preferably, the snowplow bracket consists of a traction ring, a snowplow blade, a tilting shaft, a stabilizing bracket, a mounting frame, and a positioning rod. The mounting frame positions and installs the snowplow blade via the tilting shaft. Traction rings are welded and installed on both sides of the mounting frame. A stabilizing bracket is installed directly above the snowplow blade. A positioning rod is horizontally installed on the inner side of the mounting frame.

[0006] Preferably, the stabilizing bracket consists of mounting bolts, a support crossbar, and a shock-absorbing link. The mounting bolts fix the support crossbar to the mounting frame, and the shock-absorbing link is positioned and installed on the top of the support crossbar by bolts.

[0007] Preferably, the flow guiding membrane consists of an installation sleeve, a membrane body, and counterweight rods. The installation sleeve is bolted to the membrane body, and counterweight rods are installed on the membrane body at intervals.

[0008] Preferably, the traveling stabilizing shovel consists of a front shovel body, a mounting through hole, and a rear counterweight shovel. The front shovel body and the rear counterweight shovel are integrally welded, and the mounting through holes are machined at the axial positions of the front shovel body and the rear counterweight shovel.

[0009] Preferably, the snow cutting plate is composed of parallelogram-shaped stacked pieces, mounting rods, and mounting bolts. Multiple sets of parallelogram-shaped stacked pieces are assembled and fixedly installed by mounting rods, and the mounting bolts are designed to install the snow cutting plate.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: 1. The stabilizing bracket consists of mounting bolts, support crossbars, and shock-absorbing connecting rods. The mounting bolts fix the support crossbars to the mounting frame. The shock-absorbing connecting rods are installed at the top of the support crossbars by bolts. The shock-absorbing connecting rods provide elastic support for the snowplow, ensuring that the snowplow remains in contact with the roof during snow removal. 2: The diversion membrane consists of an installation sleeve, a membrane body, and counterweight rods. The installation sleeve is bolted to install the membrane body, and counterweight rods are installed at intervals on the membrane body. Blocky snow falls sequentially through the diversion membrane, and the counterweight rods on the membrane body ensure that the entire diversion membrane is stably attached to the roof. 3: The traveling stabilizing shovel consists of a front shovel body, mounting through holes, and a rear counterweight shovel. The front shovel body and the rear counterweight shovel are welded together as a whole. The traveling stabilizing shovel ensures the stability of the machine body during travel and avoids irregular swaying during travel. 4. The snow cutting plate consists of parallelogram-shaped laminated plates, mounting rods, and mounting bolts. Multiple sets of parallelogram-shaped laminated plates are combined and stacked together and then fixed in place by mounting rods. The mounting bolts are designed to install the snow cutting plate. The combination structure of multiple sets of parallelogram-shaped laminated plates ensures both narrow dimensions and structural strength. Attached Figure Description

The snow shovel bracket 3 is positioned and installed at the front end of the traveling track 1. The flow guiding membrane 4 is hung on the frame of the snow shovel bracket 3. The structural reinforcing rod 6 is connected and installed at the rear of the traveling track 1. The traveling stabilizing shovel 5 is installed on the outer rear end of the traveling track 1 via a connecting rod.

[0014] The snowplow support 3 consists of a traction ring 7, a snowplow 8, a tilting shaft 9, a stabilizing support 10, a mounting frame 11, and a positioning rod 12. The mounting frame 11 is positioned and installed on the snowplow 8 via the tilting shaft 9. The traction ring 7 is welded and installed on both sides of the mounting frame 11. The stabilizing support 10 is installed directly above the snowplow 8. The positioning rod 12 is horizontally installed on the inner side of the mounting frame 11. The snowplow 8 performs snow removal operations.

[0015] The stabilizing bracket 10 consists of mounting bolts 13, a support crossbar 14, and a shock-absorbing link 15. The mounting bolts 13 fix the support crossbar 14 to the frame of the mounting bracket 11. The shock-absorbing link 15 is installed on the top of the support crossbar 14 by bolts.
