Abstract

Advanced snow plow. The system is equipped with a snow removal system, with a new device, which consists of some collectors adapted to each side of the blades that collect the snow they dislodge, and transport it to the inside of the truck or machine box urban said collectors in their internal part, are equipped with a coil (electric action), which transforms the snow into water, raising it to the desired temperature, and determined by the installed software, once heated, it causes the opening of the salt deposit or of any flux, causing a brine or mixture, using the exact amount of salt or flux that is needed at that moment. Said brine or mixture, will be launched on the road, urban or sidewalk, through a telescopic lance with diffusers that will be installed in the rear of the vehicle, and may launch product, in the vicinity of the area to be cleared of snow, getting to clean more area.

Description

Advanced Snowplow

Technical sector

The invention falls within the technical sector of snow plows and salt spreaders or other antifreeze products, as well as the method for their use.

State of the art

The current state of the art is based on snowplow machines adapted to trucks or expressly manufactured for this purpose, either to remove snow on the roads, in the streets of the cities or on the sidewalks, having spreaders adapted in turn of salt or other antifreeze products, to reduce the freezing point of water and prevent ice sheets from occurring in transit areas, whether of vehicles or humans.

In the successive patent documents the alternative to this type of machines is proposed, as well as its use.

5 Description of the invention

Snow plows are currently used to remove roads, both urban and inter-urban, as well as for sidewalks, which use several systems,

1 Or such as bevel-shaped blades, which throws the evicted snow into the gutters, or use an auger, which similarly clears the area that covers the length of the auger, throwing the snow out of the transit zones, in both cases, clear snow accumulates on the margins of the busy areas.

15 Similarly, in some of these machines, a salt spreader or any antifreeze product is included, which is distributed, usually from the rear of the machine, being two different methods for two different problems, one is remove the snow and another is to spread any product that lowers the freezing point of the water, to prevent the formation of ice sheets by

0 low temperatures.

These systems pose several problems, the first the accumulation of snow on the margins where the snow has been removed, secondly, the width of the snow clearing area is very limited, having the blades or the

5 certain measures, which in many cases do not allow clearing the entire road, third and very important, is the use of salt or other antifreeze products in an uncontrolled way, since it is manually operated by the operator, with the damage that entails for the environment and for vehicles, being generally corrosive products, such as

0 salt, which affect metals, vegetation and fauna in the long term.

It would therefore be desirable to obtain a device that is capable of avoiding current problems together or separately, depending on weather conditions and the effects they cause on roads and sidewalks.

For this purpose, the present invention focuses on a new electromechanical device controlled by software developed for this purpose.

The system is equipped with a traditional snow removal system, whether

40 blades with interchangeable blades, worm, etc. With the novelty of the new device, which consists of collectors adapted to each side of the blades that collect the snow that they dislodge, (avoiding depositing it in the gutters), and transporting it inside the truck's box (in the case of roads or urban roads) or the urban machine (in the case of sidewalks); said collectors in

5 its internal part, are equipped with a coil (of electric action or taking advantage of the temperature generated by the combustion engine, in the case of road trucks), which transforms snow into water, raising it to the desired temperature, marked by the climate and temperature sensors, and determined by the installed software, once heated to the temperature determined by the

0 software, this causes the opening of the salt deposit or any antifreeze, invented or by

Invent in the future, causing a brine or mixture, suitable for weather conditions, using the exact amount of salt or antifreeze required at that time, and taking into account the immediate forecasts of meteorological changes, which the software will determine, once that the forecast data of the authorities in the matter of each zone have been introduced.

Said brine or mixture, if it is another antifreeze product, already invented or to be invented, will be launched on the road, urban or sidewalk, through a lance with diffusers that will be installed in the back of the vehicle and as much next to the track, this spear will be telescopic (to adapt it to the width of the track to be cleared) and may throw brine or mixture, even in the vicinity of the area to clear snow, getting a wider area cleared of snow and ice, always using the quantity of indispensable product, avoiding massive spills and its consequences.

Detailed description of the invention

The new device is equipped with the traditional snow removal system, whether snow plows (9), with interchangeable blades (10), endless, etc. With the novelty of the new device, which consists of collectors (11), adapted on each side of the blades that collect the snow that they dislodge, (avoiding depositing it in the gutters), and transporting it inside the mixing box
