Detailed Implementation

[0017] Example 1

[0018] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, this utility model discloses a snow melting and de-icing device. The technical solution adopted includes a frame 1, with wheels 4 symmetrically mounted on the bottom of the front and rear sides of the frame 1. A push handle 7 is welded to the top left end of the frame 1. A hopper 2 is located in the middle of the frame 1, and the bottom discharge port of the hopper 2 is connected to a discharge pipe 9 located at the bottom of the frame 1. An electric valve 10 is located in the middle of the discharge pipe 9. A de-icing unit 5 is located at the bottom right end of the frame 1. The de-icing unit 5 includes a fixed rod 51, a first electric telescopic rod 52, a connecting frame 53, a connecting shaft 54, a fixed shaft 55, a de-icing roller 56, an ice-crushing chain 57, and a first motor 58. Two connecting frames 53 are provided, which are symmetrically arranged at the front and rear ends of the frame 1 inside the right end. Fixed shafts 55 are rotatably mounted on the middle part of the frame 53, and the fixed shafts 55 are fixedly connected to the inner side of the frame 1. A de-icing roller 56 is rotatably mounted on the right end between the connecting frames 53. Several sets of ice-crushing chains 57 are arranged in a circular array at equal intervals on the outer side of the de-icing roller 56. The front end of the roller shaft at the center of the de-icing roller 56 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the first motor 58 installed inside the connecting frame 53. A connecting shaft 54 ​​is fixedly mounted on the left end between the connecting frames 53. A first electric telescopic rod 52 is provided at the front and rear ends of the connecting shaft 54, respectively. Connectors are fixedly mounted on the telescopic end and the fixed end of the first electric telescopic rod 52, and the telescopic end of the first electric telescopic rod 52 is rotatably connected to the connecting shaft 54 ​​through the connectors. The fixed end of the first electric telescopic rod 52 is connected to the connecting shaft 54 ​​through the connectors. The de-icing roller 56 is rotatably connected to a fixed rod 51 located at the top right side of the inner side of the frame 1. A first motor 58 drives the de-icing roller 56 to rotate. As the de-icing roller 56 rotates, the ice-breaking chain 57 on its outer side contacts and breaks the ice. Simultaneously, the operator can control the extension and retraction of the first electric telescopic rod 52 according to the ice thickness. Since the telescopic end and fixed end of the first electric telescopic rod 52 are rotatably connected to the connecting shaft 54 ​​and the fixed rod 51 respectively via connectors, when the left end of the connecting frame 53 is raised, the middle part of the connecting frame 53 rotates along the fixed shaft 55, bringing one end of the de-icing roller 56 closer to the ground; conversely, it moves it away from the ground, preventing damage to road surfaces that do not require de-icing. The system also includes a guardrail 8, which is located above and to the right of the de-icing roller 56 and provides protection against damage. The guardrail 8 is fixedly connected to the right side of the frame 1. The guardrail 8 protects the rotating ice crushing chain 57, improving safety. A snow sweeping unit 6 is provided at the left end of the de-icing unit 5 and is fixedly installed at the bottom of the frame 1. The snow sweeping unit 6 includes a second electric telescopic rod 61, a lifting plate 62, a second motor 63, a snow sweeping disc 64, an arc-shaped guide strip 65, and nylon bristles 66. The lifting plate 62 is slidably installed in a groove provided at the center of the bottom of the inner side of the frame 1. The lifting plate 62 has a "T" shaped structure. The second motor 63 is fixedly installed at the center of the top left end of the lifting plate 62. The output shaft of the second motor 63 passes through a through hole provided on the lifting plate 62 and is fixedly connected to the center of the top of the snow sweeping disc 64 provided below the lifting plate 62.The top left end of the snow sweeping disc 64 is located directly below the discharge pipe 9. The top of the snow sweeping disc 64 is equidistantly arranged with arc-shaped guide strips 65, and the bottom of the snow sweeping disc 64 is arranged with nylon bristles 66. The height of the lifting plate 62 is adjusted by the second electric telescopic rod 61, allowing the snow sweeping disc 64 to be close to the ground. The second motor 63 drives the snow sweeping disc 64 to rotate, and the nylon bristles 66 at the bottom of the snow sweeping disc 64 contact the road surface to sweep away snow. Since the left end of the snow sweeping disc 64 is directly below the discharge pipe 9, opening the electric valve 10 allows the external de-icing agent filled in the hopper 2 to be discharged through the discharge pipe 9 onto the top of the snow sweeping disc 64. The continuous rotation of the snow sweeping disc 64 guides the de-icing agent with the arc-shaped guide strips 65 to evenly spread it in all directions, thereby accelerating the melting process of ice and snow. The de-icing unit 5 and the snow sweeping unit 6 are controlled by the controller 3 located at the top left end of the frame 1. The battery compartment 12 is located in the middle of the left end of the frame 1. A mobile power supply 13 is fixedly installed on the bottom inner side of the battery compartment 12. A maintenance plate 11 is located at the left end of the battery compartment 12. Connecting bolts are installed in the through holes at the four corners of the maintenance plate 11, and the maintenance plate 11 is threadedly connected to the screw holes on the left side of the frame 1 via these bolts. The maintenance plate 11 protects the mobile power supply 13 inside the battery compartment 12 and facilitates subsequent maintenance and / or replacement of the mobile power supply 13 by the operator. The mobile power supply 13 is electrically connected to the controller 3. The output of the controller 3 is electrically connected to the input of the first electric telescopic rod 52, the first motor 58, the second electric telescopic rod 61, the second motor 63, and the electric valve 10. The input of the controller 3 is electrically connected to the output of the mobile power supply 13. The controller 3 allows the operator to easily control the first electric telescopic rod 52, the first motor 58, the second electric telescopic rod 61, the second motor 63, and the electric valve 10.

[0019] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: First, the operator pushes the entire snow melting and de-icing device forward by holding the push handle 7 on the top of the frame 1. The wheels 4 are symmetrically installed on the bottom of the front and rear sides of the frame 1, allowing the device to move smoothly and flexibly. Then, when the device reaches the designated position, the operator starts the de-icing unit 5 through the controller 3 on the top left of the frame 1. The first motor 58 in the de-icing unit 5 starts working, driving the de-icing roller 56 to rotate. The ice-breaking chain 57 on the outside of the de-icing roller 56 rotates and contacts and breaks the ice layer. At the same time, the operator can extend and retract the first electric telescopic rod 52 according to the thickness of the ice layer. Since the telescopic end and the fixed end of the first electric telescopic rod 52 are rotatably connected to the connecting shaft 54 ​​and the fixed rod 51 respectively through the connecting parts, when the left end of the connecting frame 53 is lifted, the middle part of the connecting frame 53 moves along the fixed rod 51. The rotation of shaft 55 brings one end of the de-icing roller 56 closer to the ground, and conversely, moves it away from the ground to avoid damaging surfaces that do not require de-icing. Simultaneously, while the de-icing unit 5 is operating, the snow-sweeping unit 6 also begins operation. The height of the lifting plate 62 is adjusted via the second electric telescopic rod 61, allowing the snow-sweeping disc 64 to be close to the ground. The second motor 63 is activated, driving the snow-sweeping disc 64 to rotate. The nylon bristles 66 at the bottom of the snow-sweeping disc 64 contact the road surface, removing snow. During snow removal, since the left end of the snow-sweeping disc 64 is directly below the discharge pipe 9, the controller 3 opens the electric valve 10, allowing the de-icing agent, such as salt, in the hopper 2 to be discharged through the discharge pipe 9 onto the top of the snow-sweeping disc 64. The continuous rotation of the snow-sweeping disc 64 guides the de-icing agent to be evenly spread around the surface via the arc-shaped guide strip 65, ensuring full contact with the snow and accelerating the melting process.

Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of this utility model. Modifications or variations that do not involve creative labor are still within the protection scope of this utility model.
