Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of snow blowing technology, specifically a snow removal vehicle with an adjustable snow blowing device. Background Technology

[0002] Snowfall covers a vast area of ​​my country, with snow quality exhibiting diverse forms such as compacted snow, frozen snow, and mixed snow. Furthermore, due to the intensifying impact of climate change, extreme snowstorms are becoming more frequent. Snow removal operations on airport runways, highways, and urban roads are directly related to public safety, making the demand for efficient snow removal equipment urgent.

[0003] Currently, mainstream snow removal equipment includes three categories: hot-blowing, cold-blowing, and manual snow removal. While existing hot-blowing equipment boasts high snow removal efficiency, the high-temperature gases generated by aircraft engines cause significant damage to road surfaces. Furthermore, hot-blowing snow removal vehicles have high fuel consumption and operating costs, and the noise level exceeds 100 decibels during operation, resulting in a poor working environment for workers. Manual snow removal is inefficient, requires high labor intensity for workers, and is difficult to handle severe snowfall exceeding 30mm per day. Existing cold-blowing equipment is mostly based on commercial chassis modifications, which suffer from drawbacks such as mismatch between chassis and superstructure power, limited modification space leading to difficulties in maintaining key components, and insufficient visibility from the driver's cab, resulting in low snow removal efficiency.

[0004] Furthermore, traditional snowplows have relatively limited functionality, and their procurement and maintenance costs are high, making them unable to meet the demands of complex and severe snow conditions and the ever-increasing user needs. Therefore, it is necessary to design corresponding technical solutions to address these issues. Utility Model Content
