[0015] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0016] Example 1 like Figures 1-5As shown, the auger structure of the snow sweeper in this embodiment is one of the important components of the snow sweeper. It is mainly composed of the mounting shell 10 and the auger assembly rotatably disposed in the mounting shell 10. The mounting shell 10 is conventionally composed of an upper shell 11 and two side shells 12 disposed on both sides of the upper shell 11.

[0017] The auger assembly includes a snow sweeping module 20, an adapter shaft 30, a locking component 40, a bearing 50, a locking ring 60, and a protective housing 70.

[0018] Specifically, the snow sweeping module 20 includes a drive shaft 21 and a plurality of blades 22 disposed on the drive shaft 21. The two opposite ends of the drive shaft 21 in the axial direction form a connecting end 211. Here, the connecting end 211 has a flat head structure, that is, the two sides are cut off from the drive shaft 21 to form a square connecting end 211.

[0019] Furthermore, the adapter shaft 30 includes an intermediate section 31 and a first mating section 32 and a second mating section 33 disposed at both ends of the intermediate section 31. The first mating section 32, the intermediate section 31, and the second mating section 33 are coaxially arranged and their outer diameters gradually increase. The first mating section 32 is connected to the mounting housing 10, and the second mating section 33 is connected to the connecting end 211. The second mating section 33 has a recessed hole for the connecting end 211 to be inserted into the radial direction of the second mating section 33. At the same time, the second mating section 33 is provided with an external thread.

[0020] Correspondingly, the locking member 40 is screwed onto the second mating section 33, and when it moves to the connection position between the connecting end 211 and the second mating section 33, it can prevent the connecting end 211 from disengaging from the adapter shaft 30 radially.

[0021] Therefore, when the locking member 40 is in the locked state, the adapter shaft 30 and the connecting end 211 are at least partially covered by the locking member 40.

[0022] Additionally, the mounting housing 10 is provided with a mounting groove 101, the adapter shaft 30 passes through the mounting groove 101, a bearing 50 is sleeved on the intermediate section 31, and a locking ring 60 is sleeved on the first mating section 32, the locking ring 60 restricting the position of the bearing 50.

[0023] Additionally, a protective housing 70 is provided on the outer side of the mounting housing 10, the protective housing 70 surrounds the mounting groove 101, and the bearing 50 is confined between the protective housing 70 and the mounting groove 101.

[0024] It should be noted that the connecting end 211 can also be a concave hole structure, and a square flat head is formed on the corresponding second mating section 33, which can also achieve plug-in mating.

[0025] The preferred embodiments of this utility model disclosed above are merely illustrative of the present utility model. These preferred embodiments do not exhaustively describe all details, nor do they limit the utility model to the specific implementations described. Clearly, many modifications and variations can be made based on the content of this specification. This specification selects and specifically describes these embodiments to better explain the principles and practical applications of this utility model, thereby enabling those skilled in the art to better understand and utilize it. This utility model is limited only by the claims and their full scope and equivalents.
