Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of snowplows, and more particularly to a snowplow front shovel. Background Technology
[0002] A snowplow is a type of engineering machinery specifically designed for clearing snow from roads. It is widely used in urban roads, airport runways, highways, and other locations. When a snowplow is in motion, its bucket inserts into the snow, and the vehicle's forward propulsion shovels up the snow and pushes it to the side of the road or a designated collection area.
[0003] However, the current bucket structure is basically a pusher plate structure. During the pushing process, the amount of snow pushed (the amount of snow pushed) depends on its own width and height. At the same time, the pushing amount also needs to be matched with the forward power (small mobile equipment is equipped with small buckets to avoid insufficient power). Therefore, the single pushing amount of the bucket structure is limited, which leads to the snowplow increasing the reciprocating stroke during the snow removal process, which consumes more energy.
[0004] In conclusion, the existing technology obviously has inconveniences and defects in practical use, so it is necessary to improve it. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the aforementioned shortcomings, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a snowplow front blade that can construct a dual storage space through an external hopper in different working states, thereby increasing the snow pushing capacity of the front blade in a single trip and reducing the reciprocating travel of the snowplow.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a snow-rolling front shovel, including a bucket body and an external incremental mechanism installed at its working end; the external incremental mechanism includes an external material bin installed on the bucket body and having an opening, and a drive structure for driving the external material bin to tilt upwards; in the first working state, the external material bin covers the working front end of the bucket body; in the second working state, the drive structure drives the external material bin to tilt upwards around a fixed point by a predetermined angle.
[0007] According to the snow-rolling front shovel of this utility model, the bucket body includes a main push plate connected to the push plate adjustment structure and an auxiliary push plate disposed on the side end of the main push plate and arranged at an angle to it, forming a partial surrounding structure.
[0008] According to the snow-rolling front shovel of this utility model, the external material bin is a flexible hopper structure; the side end of the bucket body is provided with an upward-tilting bracket for connecting to and supporting the external material bin, and a driver for driving the upward-tilting bracket.
[0009] According to the snow-rolling front shovel of this utility model, the external material bin is a mesh structure; the upward-flipping bracket is provided with hooks for connecting the external material bin.
[0010] According to the snow-rolling front shovel of this utility model, a flexible serrated plate is installed at the lower end of the bucket body along the bottom edge direction.
[0011] According to the snow-rolling front shovel of this utility model, a filter screen plate is installed at the upper end of the bucket body.
[0012] This utility model provides a snowplow front shovel, including a bucket body and an external incremental mechanism installed at its working end; the bucket body is installed at the front end of the machine body (snowplow); the external incremental mechanism includes an external auxiliary material bin installed on the bucket body and having an opening, and a drive structure for driving the external auxiliary material bin to tilt upwards; the bucket body includes a main push plate connected to a push plate adjustment structure and an auxiliary push plate disposed on the side end of the main push plate and arranged at an angle to it, forming a partial surrounding structure. During the forward movement of the machine body (snowplow), snow is accumulated in the space surrounded by the main push plate and the auxiliary push plate. In the first working state, the external auxiliary material bin covers the working front end of the bucket body; at this time, during the forward movement of the machine body (snowplow), the snow accumulated due to the advancement of the front shovel will preferentially enter the receiving space of the external auxiliary material bin. After the snowplow has advanced a certain distance (i.e., after a certain amount of snow has been stored in the external hopper's storage space), the front shovel enters its second working state. At this time, the drive structure drives the external hopper to tilt upwards at a predetermined angle around a fixed point. The external hopper then tilts upwards into a non-working state, exposing the space enclosed by the main and auxiliary push plates. As the snowplow continues to advance, snow continues to accumulate within the space enclosed by the main and auxiliary push plates. By constructing a dual storage space, the snow-pushing capacity of the front shovel in a single trip can be increased, reducing the reciprocating travel distance of the snowplow. This invention utilizes the external hopper in different working states to construct a dual storage space, thereby increasing the snow-pushing capacity of the front shovel in a single trip and reducing the reciprocating travel distance of the snowplow.

[0017] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely for explaining the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.
[0018] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 This utility model provides a snowplow front shovel, which includes a bucket body 1 and an external incremental mechanism installed at its working end; the bucket body 1 is installed at the front end of the machine body (snowplow);
[0019] The external incremental mechanism includes an external feed bin 2 with an opening installed on the bucket body 1 and a drive structure for driving the external feed bin 2 to tilt upwards; the bucket body 1 includes a main push plate 11 connected to the push plate adjustment structure and an auxiliary push plate 12 disposed on the side of the main push plate 11 and arranged at an angle to it, forming a partial surrounding structure. When the machine (snowplow) moves forward, the snow will be accumulated in the space surrounded by the main push plate 11 and the auxiliary push plate 12.
[0020] In the first working state, the front shovel and the external material bin 2 cover the working front end of the bucket body 1. At this time, as the machine (snowplow) moves forward, the snow accumulated due to the front shovel will preferentially enter the containment space of the external material bin 2.
[0021] After the snowplow has advanced a certain distance (i.e., after a certain amount of snow has been stored in the external hopper 2), the front shovel enters its second working state. At this time, the drive structure drives the external hopper 2 to tilt upwards at a predetermined angle around a fixed point. The external hopper 2 then tilts upwards into a non-working state, exposing the space enclosed by the main push plate 11 and the auxiliary push plate 12. As the snowplow continues to advance, snow continues to accumulate within the space enclosed by the main push plate 11 and the auxiliary push plate 12. By constructing a dual storage space, the snow-pushing capacity of the front shovel in a single trip can be increased, while reducing the reciprocating stroke of the snowplow.
[0022] Specifically, in this embodiment, to ensure the capacity of the external material bin 2 while reducing its load on the machine body (snowplow), the external material bin 2 adopts a flexible bag structure, such as a rubber bag, a nylon bag, or even a preferred mesh bag structure (lightweight); the side end of the bucket body 1 is provided with an upward-tilting bracket 21 for connecting to and supporting the external material bin 2, and a driver for driving the upward-tilting bracket 21; the upward-tilting bracket 21 is provided with a hook 23 for connecting the external material bin 2, and the end of the external material bin 2 can be hung on the hook 23; the driver is a rotary driver (such as a rotary motor or hydraulic motor, not shown in the figure), and a rotating shaft is provided at a predetermined position on the upward-tilting bracket 21, which is fixedly connected to the output end of the driver. During the upward-tilting operation, the driver drives the upward-tilting bracket 21 to change angle through the rotating shaft, thereby driving the external material bin 2 to tilt upward.
[0023] Preferably, a flexible serrated plate 4 (made of rubber) is installed at the lower end of the bucket body 1 along the bottom edge direction to reduce the impact on the components caused by the lower edge of the bucket body 1 contacting the uneven road surface protrusion during snow pushing.
[0024] In addition, in order to facilitate observation of the height of snow pushed by the bucket body 1 during the pushing process, a filter plate 5 is installed at the upper end of the bucket body 1 of this utility model. The filter holes of the filter plate 5 can be seen through the line of sight, which facilitates the observation work.
[0025] In summary, this utility model provides a snowplow front shovel, including a bucket body and an external incremental mechanism installed at its working end; the bucket body is installed at the front end of the machine body (snowplow); the external incremental mechanism includes an external auxiliary material bin installed on the bucket body and having an opening, and a drive structure for driving the external auxiliary material bin to tilt upwards; the bucket body includes a main push plate connected to a push plate adjustment structure and an auxiliary push plate disposed on the side end of the main push plate and arranged at an angle to it, forming a partial surrounding structure. During the forward movement of the machine body (snowplow), snow is accumulated in the space surrounded by the main push plate and the auxiliary push plate. In the first working state, the external auxiliary material bin covers the working front end of the bucket body; at this time, during the forward movement of the machine body (snowplow), the snow accumulated due to the advancement of the front shovel will preferentially enter the receiving space of the external auxiliary material bin. After the snowplow has advanced a certain distance (i.e., after a certain amount of snow has been stored in the external hopper's storage space), the front shovel enters its second working state. At this time, the drive structure drives the external hopper to tilt upwards at a predetermined angle around a fixed point. The external hopper then tilts upwards into a non-working state, exposing the space enclosed by the main and auxiliary push plates. As the snowplow continues to advance, snow continues to accumulate within the space enclosed by the main and auxiliary push plates. By constructing a dual storage space, the snow-pushing capacity of the front shovel in a single trip can be increased, reducing the reciprocating travel distance of the snowplow. This invention utilizes the external hopper in different working states to construct a dual storage space, thereby increasing the snow-pushing capacity of the front shovel in a single trip and reducing the reciprocating travel distance of the snowplow.
[0026] Of course, there may be other embodiments of this utility model.
