Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of de-icing and snow removal equipment, specifically to a de-icing and snow removal vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, snow and ice removal vehicles have very low snow removal and ice breaking effects and low operating efficiency. The main reasons are as follows: (1) Snow and ice removal operations are monotonous and inefficient. There are no preventive measures before freezing rain, and no prevention of secondary icing after the ice layer is removed. The de-icing roller does not take advantage of the snow removal vehicle as a whole, and its force is insufficient when breaking the ice surface. The snow removal vehicle has high power and high fuel consumption, and the snow removal efficiency is very low compared with the power of the vehicle itself; (2) The snow removal width and de-icing parameters are limited. The snow removal width is about 2.8 meters to 3.2 meters, and one snow removal device can only meet the cleaning of less than one lane (3.5 meters). Even if a platooning method is adopted, two devices can only meet the snow and ice removal of 1.5 lanes. The energy of the de-icer is not adjustable or the adjustment is limited. It cannot adapt to the de-icing of thin ice and thick ice, which may result in poor de-icing effect of thick ice, while thin ice may cause damage to the road surface or equipment. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of this, the present invention provides a snow and ice removal vehicle that integrates functions such as snow pushing, ice breaking, snow scraping, ice scraping, and snow sweeping, and has high snow and ice removal efficiency.

[0004] The technical solution adopted in this utility model is as follows:

[0005] A snow and ice removal vehicle includes a chassis, an auxiliary engine, a hydraulic pump station, an alternating vibratory icebreaker, a snowplow, an ice scraper, a snowplow, a high-speed roller brush, and a de-icing agent spreader.

[0006] The chassis is equipped with an interface at the front for connecting to an alternating vibratory icebreaker or snowplow; both the alternating vibratory icebreaker and snowplow use hydraulic quick couplings; snowplows are installed on both sides of the chassis, and ice scrapers are installed on the bottom of the middle of the chassis; the de-icing agent spreader is located at the rear of the chassis, and the high-speed roller brush is located at the bottom of the rear of the chassis; the auxiliary engine provides power to the hydraulic pump station and is used to control and drive the alternating vibratory icebreaker, snowplow, ice scraper, and snowplow.

[0007] Furthermore, the de-icing and snow removal vehicle adopts a load-sensitive hydraulic control system.

[0008] Furthermore, the snowplow is connected to the chassis vehicle via a trapezoidal four-bar linkage.

[0009] Furthermore, the snowplow is pointed.

[0010] Furthermore, the alternating vibration icebreaker employs multiple sets of hydraulically driven ice-breaking teeth, which vibrate independently in groups, with adjustable vibration frequency and impact energy for each group.

[0011] Furthermore, the high-speed roller brush rotation speed changes proportionally with the vehicle speed, which can automatically adjust the brush bristle pressure on the ground and the grounding chord length.

[0012] Furthermore, the chassis vehicle is a 6×4 chassis vehicle.

[0013] Furthermore, the snowplow is a segmented obstacle-avoiding snowplow, and the snowplow is a segmented obstacle-avoiding snowplow.

[0014] Beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. This utility model integrates snow pushing, ice breaking, snow scraping, ice scraping, and snow sweeping functions into one unit. It is versatile and multi-purpose, suitable for snow accumulation on ice surfaces. Each unit module can independently complete different forms of ice and snow removal functions, improving the efficiency of ice and snow removal operations. Moreover, the interface between the alternating vibrating icebreaker and the snowplow is unified. Both the alternating vibrating icebreaker and the snowplow 5 adopt hydraulic quick couplings, which can realize quick replacement and use.

[0016] Secondly, this utility model is equipped with double-sided snowplows 5, which increases the snow removal width in a single operation, from the original 1 lane to 2-3 lanes, thereby improving snow removal efficiency.

[0017] 2. The snow and ice removal vehicle of this utility model adopts a load-sensitive hydraulic control system, which can automatically adjust the displacement and working pressure to meet the system's requirements for different pressures and flow rates. This enables the entire hydraulic control system to provide the required pressure and flow rate according to the load conditions. The system has low power loss, low heat generation, and energy saving.

[0018] 3. This utility model utilizes the principle of an "icebreaker" for snow removal operations. The two side snowplows are symmetrical and have pointed shapes, which significantly reduces the resistance encountered by the snowplows when the vehicle pushes snow. Under the same power, the snow removal efficiency of the snow removal equipment can be significantly improved.

[0019] 4. The alternating vibration icebreaker of this utility model adopts multiple sets of hydraulically driven ice-breaking teeth, which vibrate independently in groups. The vibration frequency and impact energy of each group are adjustable, and the de-icing parameters are adjustable to adapt to the de-icing requirements of ice surfaces of different thicknesses.

[0020] 5. The high-speed roller brush of this utility model changes its rotation speed proportionally to the vehicle speed, and can automatically adjust the pressure of the brush bristles on the ground and the ground chord length, thus ensuring the best snow removal effect through intelligent control.

[0022] Figure 2 This is a top view of the present invention.

[0023] Among them, 1-chassis vehicle, 2-auxiliary engine, 4-alternating vibration icebreaker, 5-snowplow, 6-ice scraper, 7-snowplow, 8-high-speed roller brush, 9-snow melting agent spreader. Detailed Implementation

[0024] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0025] This utility model provides a de-icing and snow removal vehicle, such as Figure 1 As shown, the vehicle includes a chassis 1, an auxiliary engine 2, a hydraulic pump station, an alternating vibration icebreaker 4, a snowplow 5, an ice scraper 6, a snowplow 7, a high-speed roller brush 8, and a de-icing agent spreader 9. In this embodiment, the chassis 1 is a 6×4 chassis, which forms the basis for a multi-functional snow and ice removal vehicle that integrates snow pushing, ice breaking, snow scraping, ice scraping, and snow sweeping functions.

[0026] The front end of the chassis vehicle 1 is equipped with an interface for connecting to the alternating vibratory icebreaker 4 or the snowplow 5, which can be interchanged. Both the alternating vibratory icebreaker 4 and the snowplow 5 use hydraulic quick couplings for rapid connection. Snowplows 7 are provided on both sides of the chassis vehicle 1, and ice scrapers 6 are located on the bottom of the middle of the chassis vehicle 1. The de-icing agent spreader 9 is located at the rear end of the chassis vehicle 1, and the high-speed roller brush 8 is located at the bottom of the rear end of the chassis vehicle 1. The auxiliary engine 2 provides power to the hydraulic pump station and is used to control and drive the alternating vibratory icebreaker 4, snowplow 5, ice scraper 6, and snowplow 7.

[0027] The de-icing and snow removal vehicle adopts a load-sensitive hydraulic control system. The combination of a load-sensitive plunger pump and an electro-hydraulic proportional multi-way valve can automatically adjust the displacement and working pressure to meet the system's requirements for different pressures and flow rates. This gives the entire hydraulic control system the characteristic of providing the required pressure and flow rate according to the load conditions. The system has low power loss, low heat generation, and energy saving.

[0028] Specifically, the snowplow 5 is connected to the chassis vehicle 1 through a trapezoidal four-bar linkage mechanism and a frame swing adaptive system. When the blade of the snowplow 5 encounters road spikes, speed bumps, seams, or foreign objects, the snowplow 5 is a segmented obstacle-avoiding snowplow that can automatically segment and vertically avoid obstacles under external force and automatically reset, adapting to uneven road conditions and maintaining a stable working state in various terrains. This improves snow removal efficiency and effectively prevents the blade from being damaged when encountering obstacles, providing a reliable guarantee for the safety of the equipment.

[0029] like Figure 2As shown, the side snowplow 7 is angled, which significantly reduces the resistance encountered by the snowplow 7 when the vehicle is pushing snow. When the side snowplow 7 is in operation, it unfolds, increasing the working width to 2-3 lanes and improving snow removal efficiency. When the snow removal vehicle is moving between locations, the snowplow 7 folds to the side of the chassis 1, shortening the width of the shovel and ensuring the vehicle's passability during movement. Under the action of the deflection cylinder, the snowplow 7 swings to the left (right), thus pushing the snow to the left (or right). The snowplow 7 is a segmented obstacle-avoiding snowplow, which can automatically segment and vertically avoid obstacles under external force and automatically reset, adapting to uneven road conditions. It can maintain a stable working state in various terrains, thereby improving snow removal efficiency and effectively preventing damage to the blade when encountering obstacles, providing reliable protection for the safety of the equipment.

[0030] The alternating vibration icebreaker 4 employs multiple sets of hydraulically driven ice-breaking teeth, which vibrate independently in groups. The vibration frequency and impact energy of each group are adjustable to adapt to the de-icing requirements of ice surfaces of different thicknesses. The constant amplitude ensures that excessive impact from the icebreaker will not damage the road surface.

[0031] The ice scraper with 6 teeth has a forced snow removal and ice breaking function. During the operation of the snow and ice removal vehicle, the direction of the ice scraper 6 can be adjusted to throw snow or ice in different directions of the vehicle body. At the same time, the ice scraper 6 can be pressed down in place and rotated left and right to break up the compacted snow and ice surface.

[0032] The high-speed roller brush rotates at 8 speeds proportionally to the vehicle speed, automatically adjusting the pressure of the bristles on the ground and the grounding chord length.

[0033] The de-icing agent spreader 9 is mainly used to spread de-icing agents and de-icing agents to lower the melting point of ice and snow, thereby melting the ice and snow and clearing the road surface. Spreading de-icing agents can effectively clear ice and snow to a certain extent, which plays a role in traffic speed and safety.

[0034] In summary, the above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
