Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model application relates to the field of snow removal device technology, specifically a nozzle guide flow adjustment device for a hot blowing snow removal vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] The nozzle guide system of a hot air snowplow is primarily used to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of hot air snow removal. Its design aims to control the direction of the hot air flow, ensuring that the hot air acts evenly and stably on the snow surface, thereby accelerating snow melting and removal. Through specially designed nozzle shapes and guide devices, the nozzle guide system effectively adjusts the direction, speed, and distribution of the hot air. The key to the system lies in the nozzle structure, which directs the hot air to the target area, ensuring that the hot air fully covers the snow surface and improves the contact effect between the hot air and the snow.

[0003] However, the nozzle guide system of existing hot air snowplows lacks adjustment capabilities, leading to a series of problems. These drawbacks mainly manifest in snow removal efficiency, flexibility, and adaptability. The following is a detailed description: the inability to adjust the nozzle angle and height means that the direction and coverage of the hot air are fixed. This may result in the hot air not being able to directly and effectively act on the snow surface. In different snow removal environments, the thickness, humidity, type, and accumulation pattern of snow vary greatly. If the hot air flow cannot be flexibly adjusted, it cannot be ensured that each area receives sufficient hot air coverage. Furthermore, because the nozzle angle and height are not adjustable, hot air may be unnecessarily blown into the air or beyond the target snow area, resulting in energy waste. Therefore, a nozzle guide adjustment device for a hot air snowplow is provided to solve the aforementioned problems. Utility Model Content

[0024] To make the purpose, features, and advantages of this application more apparent and understandable, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the embodiments described below are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0025] Reference Figure 1-5 A nozzle guide adjustment device for a hot air snowplow includes a snowplow body 1 and a handle 2. The handle 2 is installed on the snowplow body 1. The snowplow body 1 is also equipped with a hot air supply device 3. A snowplow roller 4 is installed at the front end of the snowplow body 1. A height adjustment mechanism 6 is installed on the snowplow body 1. An angle adjustment mechanism 7 is connected to the height adjustment mechanism 6. A hot air nozzle 5 is installed at the end of the angle adjustment mechanism 7. The hot air nozzle 5 is connected to the hot air supply device 3 through a pipe. The height adjustment mechanism 6 adjusts the height of the hot air nozzle 5, and the angle adjustment mechanism 7 adjusts the angle of the hot air nozzle 5.

[0026] The height adjustment mechanism 6 includes a base 61 mounted on the snowplow body 1, a mounting post 62 connected to the base 61, a sleeve rod 63 sleeved on the outer wall of the mounting post 62, a threaded hole 64 opened in the sleeve rod 63, and a fixing bolt 65 threadedly connected in the threaded hole 64.

[0027] The hot air nozzle 5 is connected to the hot air supply device 3 via a pipe, forming a stable connection. Specifically, the pipe delivers hot air from the heater inside the hot air supply device 3 to the hot air nozzle 5, ensuring the hot air is guided out onto the snow. When adjusting the height of the hot air nozzle 5, simply turn the fixing bolt 65 outwards, causing it to engage with the threaded hole 64 and rotate outwards. Ultimately, the inner end of the fixing bolt 65 separates from the outer wall of the mounting post 62, releasing the restriction on the position of the sleeve rod 63. This allows the sleeve rod 63 to be moved, adjusting the height of the hot air nozzle 5. After adjustment, turn the fixing bolt 65 in the opposite direction, causing the inner end of the fixing bolt 65 to fit and clamp against the outer wall of the mounting post 62, thus securing it.

[0028] It is worth noting that the sleeve 63 is slidably connected along the vertical direction of the mounting post 62, and the outer wall of the sleeve 63 is movably connected to the angle adjustment mechanism 7.

[0029] The outer wall of the fixing bolt 65 is provided with anti-slip texture, which increases the friction between the hand and the fixing bolt 65, making it easier to grip when rotating the fixing bolt 65 and reducing the risk of slipping or slipping. The inner end of the fixing bolt 65 is provided with a rubber pad to reduce wear and ensure that the fixing bolt 65 will not loosen after being tightened, thus improving the safety of operation.

[0030] The angle adjustment mechanism 7 includes a movable upper plate 71 hinged to the outer wall of the sleeve rod 63, a movable lower plate 72 hinged to the outer wall of the sleeve rod 63 and placed inside the movable upper plate 71, a pin 73 inserted into the outer wall of the movable upper plate 71, a nut 74 threaded to the pin 73, a first hinge block 75 with its upper end hinged to the pin 73 and its lower end hinged to the movable lower plate 72, a hinge rod 76 connected to the first hinge block 75, a second hinge block 77 hinged to the hinge rod 76, a mounting sleeve 78 connected to the second hinge block 77, a threaded groove 79 formed in the mounting sleeve 78, and a threaded rod 710 threadedly fixed to the threaded groove 79, wherein a hot air nozzle 5 is installed on the threaded rod 710;

[0031] When the angle of the hot air nozzle 5 needs to be adjusted, the vertical angle is adjusted by turning the two sets of nuts 74 outward to separate the nuts 74 from the outer wall of the movable upper plate 71, releasing the fixed state between the movable upper plate 71 and the movable lower plate 72. Then, rotate the first hinge block 75, which drives the movable upper plate 71 and the movable lower plate 72 to rotate synchronously on the sleeve rod 63, thereby driving the hot air nozzle 5 to adjust the vertical angle. After adjustment, tighten the two sets of nuts 74. The horizontal angle is adjusted by turning the hot air nozzle 5, which drives the second hinge block 77 to rotate on the hinge rod 76. The friction pad makes the second hinge block 77 rotate to any position to form a static fixation effect. When the hot air nozzle 5 needs to be disassembled and replaced, simply turn the hot air nozzle 5 to make the threaded rod 710 and the threaded groove 79 cooperate to rotate outward, and unscrew it for replacement.

[0032] It is worth noting that the outer walls of both ends of the pin 73 are provided with external threads, and the outer walls of both sides of the pin 73 are connected to the nut 74 by the external threads. The inner end wall of the nut 74 is provided with a rubber pad. This threaded connection method ensures a stable connection between the pin 73 and the nut 74, can withstand greater forces, and prevents loosening due to operational vibration or external force.

[0033] A friction pad is provided between the hinge rod 76 and the second hinge block 77. The friction pad can provide moderate resistance, making the angle adjustment more stable and preventing adjustments that are too fast or too slow, thus ensuring the accuracy and stability of the equipment during use.

[0034] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this application is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that this application can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this application. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this application is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, all variations falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims are intended to be included within this application. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.

[0035] The above-described embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this application, and are not intended to limit them. Although this application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features.
