Definitions
- the invention relates generally to clearing devices and in particular an improvement of a clearing device and similar devices to clear snow and other fillings, roads, Because of and similar surfaces.
- the invention is particularly applicable to snow plows, whereby an improved plow or clearing device is created.
- the invention will hereinafter be described with reference to a snow removal device described.
- the invention can also be used with other clearing devices or plowing, e.g. used in agriculture will find application.
- a plow as a snow removal device for clearing or removing the Road snow has a shovel that rolls up the snow and then moved across the front surface of the bucket.
- the clearing device has a clearing board with a curved structure on the bottom in a lower clearing edge or a scratch sheet ends.
- the scratch sheet stretches usually forward in the direction of travel to get into the snow digging in and squeezing the snow into the curved snow plow.
- the contour of the clearing board guides a swirl into the moving up snow and overwhelming the snow the front of the clearing board across to the side of the clearing device.
- a typical snow plow construction is one Low carbon steel plate, usually thick about 3.2 mm (1/8 ") into an arc shape to make the Training clearing board.
- the frame construction the usual is constructed from angle profile components, is then welded to the back of the clearing board to support it and to prevent the scraper from breaking or kinking when it does meets stones or other piles on the street, whereby the frame construction also for fastening the for operation necessary components of the clearing device. Examples of such Constructions can be found in patents US 3,432,947 and US 3,465,456, which have been assigned to the applicant.
- a clearing board is made of steel not desirable.
- a steel clearing board requires higher loads the vehicle to which it is attached, and in particular it requires a stronger broach attachment and larger ones Lifting systems than would otherwise be possible.
- the snow plows have been significantly improved as a polyethylene material with a high molecular weight used as a clearing board was made to be durable, lightweight and to significantly improve snow clearing plow, as in the patents US 4,803,790 and US 4,845,866. Also these patents are intended to form part of the present disclosure form.
- the reamer disclosed in U.S. Patent 4,803,790 has a conventional frame, the top and bottom extending mounting elements with approximately the same Length as the plow shovel and a variety of vertical ones extending, transversely spaced cross struts.
- Each The cross strut has one end on the upper mounting element and attached with its other end to the lower mounting element and has a concave (inward) curved front End face, which is between the upper and lower mounting element extends.
- a substantially rectangular and concave curved clearing board made of high molecular weight polyethylene is by means of screw fasteners on the upper and lower mounting element in a curved or prestressed manner attached.
- the back of the attached clearing board has from the front end faces of the cross struts pointing in the direction of travel a fixed distance, so that between the scraper and cross strut a space remains free.
- This distance or space one contact is sufficient in normal operation of the clearing device between the dozer board or dozer blade and the cross struts to prevent during extreme impact impacts from fillings contact with the struts becomes possible.
- the clearing board bends springily into the space or out when heavy or wet snow needs to be cleared, and this Bending improves the lateral movement and rolling movement of the Snow over the front surface of the clearing board. So far they worry Frame / clearing board mounting arrangements for a cross support of the Clearing boards to prevent breakage of the clearing board when the clearing board is impacted by heavy fillings. Therefore, this construction has for a significant improvement of the state of the art.
- U.S. Patent 5,088,215 the disclosure of which is disclosed herein is also included.
- the dozer board made of high molecular weight polyethylene with a desired Preformed curvature and the upper and lower mounting strips were changed so that the clearing board in or on the Frame clamped and secured using standard fasteners can be. While in this patent the arrangement of the Frame attachment is improved, the gap remains between the Get the clearing board and the cross struts so that the clearing board also maintains its improved snow clearing characteristics.
- Snow plows are usually in inhospitable environments used and are low temperatures, moisture, freezing rain, Ice, salt and violent blows like solid protrusions Curbs, boulders and rubble exposed. While the continuous or continued operation of the clearing device can rubble into the gap between the scraper and the road Arrive cross braces and get stuck in them. If the operator not cleaning the gaps regularly, they can completely filled with solid rubble, which results in that the spring travel of the clearing board created by the gap the frame is lost or reduced. Even more significant is that the operating temperature of the clearing device is such Temperature ranges show that there is water in the space collect and to ice, ice blocks or ice inclusions in the gaps can freeze.
- the object of the invention is a clearing device with a fastening arrangement for a clearing board or clearing blade made of plastic to create that allows the scraper board to be independent on the operating conditions to which the clearing device is exposed is its desired resilient or elastic bendability maintains.
- This task is invented together with further advantages with a broaching device that can be attached to a vehicle (Plow) for clearing snow, piles and the like from roads and similar surfaces solved that a clearing board or dozer blade made of plastic and one with a side on a vehicle attachable solid frame, on the opposite Side the clearing board is mounted.
- the frame has at least an essentially vertically extending cross strut, that of the scraper at least over a partial area its height keeps a distance and so between itself and the Clearing board forms a vertically extending space.
- the space is at least partially resilient or elastically deformable material, so that it Is possible to bend resiliently even then, if foreign material such as Pieces of ice, with ice inclusions staggered foreign material or solid rubble in that Area of the gap that is not elastic with the deformable material is filled.
- elastic deformable material any solid-like, elastic Material to be understood, even at temperatures, to which the clearing device or plow is normally exposed maintains a degree of elasticity. With elasticity is the property of the material meant to act under force to deform and its original shape and dimensions to resume when the force ceases.
- the upper and lower frames are longitudinal extending mounting elements on each other by means of several Cross struts are arranged at a vertical distance.
- the cross braces are spaced side by side along the mounting elements arranged from each other, the one inserted into the frame Clearing board is connected to the mounting elements.
- the clearing board and the areas of each cross strut facing it are concavely curved forward or inward around the space limit arched. The curvature can be even or uneven be over the height of the plow.
- the elastically deformable material can essentially fill in every space, whereby an accumulation of foreign matter that the resilient bending of the clearing board in the intermediate space would be avoided becomes.
- the clearing board by means of fasteners on the mounting elements mounted and the elastically deformable material extends over a distance or a length section that essentially same size as the vertical length of the space (or even larger than the space), so that's elastic deformable material touches (or even touches) the dozer board is slightly compressed) when the fasteners are tightened are.
- This can ensure that a space is present when the clearing board is inserted into the frame causing any accumulation of material in the space is prevented while the resilient installation of the clearing board is maintained in the frame.
- this is Clearing board by means of fastening elements on the assembly elements attached and the elastically deformable material extends over a length that is smaller or shorter than the space is when the scraper board is built into the frame, whereby even a collection of foreign material in the open rest room the only partially filled space is not the resilient one Prevents the clearing board from bending into the space.
- a clearing device with a plastic clearing board built into a frame is created that is independent of one Accumulation of foreign material such as Ice formations between the Scraper board and the frame, can bend resiliently.
- Another advantage achieved is that a clearing device with a plastic clearing board inserted in a frame in a resilient manner is created, on the one hand, a collection foreign material between the clearing board and the frame is prevented and on the other hand it enables the clearing board is to be able to perform the desired resilient deflections.
- An important advantage achievable with the invention is that a device and a method for retrofitting existing, a resiliently integrated plastic clearing board in a frame Plows or clearers is created, the fastening arrangement on its own ensures that this Dozer regardless of the operation of the snowplough unfavorable resulting in harsh environmental conditions Resiliently bend environmental influences.
- the embodiments according to the invention also offer the advantage that a clearing device with a clearing board or clearing blade Plastic is created that all of the previously described Can have properties, the reamer simply assembled and can be repaired if necessary.
- Another advantage of the invention is that a Clearing device is created with a plastic clearing board, which has previously described properties and that comparatively is inexpensive.
- a clearing device 10 is shown, the for clearing snow, snow drifts and the like. of snow covered Driveways, parking bays etc. as an attachment to motor trucks, Pickup vehicles, four-wheel drive vehicles and the like. used and is usually about 2 m (78 inches) wide.
- the wider, heavier plows from municipalities or government agencies Road authorities responsible for clearing snow and debris from Motorways are usually wide of approximately 2.30 m (90 inch) and can be a frame construction have, which differs from that shown.
- the expert will recognize that the invention works equally well on large plows as with small plows shown here can.
- the clearing device 10 shown in FIGS. 1, 2 and 3 has in generally a frame structure 14, one at the bottom of the frame 14 attached scraper blade 16 and a concave to the front and inwardly curved scraper 18.
- the concave curve Clearing board 18 has a front end pointing in the direction of travel or clearing Surface 19 and a rear facing the frame 14 Area 17 (back).
- the definitions used here are to be understood as follows: With “scraper blade” is the interchangeable, lower edge section of the clearing device meant while “Leaf” is the concavely curved frontal surface 19 of the clearing board 18 and the scratch sheet 16. Under plow or clearing device 10 are the frame 14, the clearing board 18 and the scraper blade 16 to understand.
- auxiliary elements include a support cross member 20, which with Suspensions 21 is provided on a vehicle, not shown are attached. Extend from the support crossbeam 20 struts 23 that pivot at 25 on a box-shaped Frame 26 are articulated.
- the box-shaped frame 26 is by means of a pivot connection 28 pivotable on the bottom portion the frame structure 14 attached.
- the pivot connection 28 allows forward or backward tilting of the Clearing device 10 about a horizontal axis.
- Cylinder 30, the side are mounted on the struts 23, allow a horizontal Swiveling the plow 10 about the swivel suspension 25, so that the angle of inclination of the plow 10 relative to Vehicle (or the direction of travel) can be adjusted to Snow to one side or to the other side of the plow 10 to be able to leave.
- a first mounting arm 33 attached to the box-like frame 26 is attached, and a second mounting arm 34, the attached to the upper end of the frame structure 14 serve for mounting one or more springs 36, which the clearing device 10 keep in an upright position. If the scratch sheet 16 on a Hitting an obstacle on the road, etc., the plow 10 swings the pivot 28 against the force of the springs 36 that the clearing device or the plow 10 after passing the obstacle in his Move the normal position back. The tension of the springs 36 is shown in in a known manner by means of screwed into the mounting arms 34 Adjustment arms 38 set.
- auxiliary elements described above are for generic Plows are known and therefore need no further explanation become. However, it should be noted that it is lightweight Clearing board 18 is made possible, the auxiliary elements as well to construct the frame 14 in a manner that the Weight and manufacturing costs compared to building this Components in conventional steel clearing boards can be reduced can.
- the frame 14 shown in Figs. 1, 2 and 3 is similar constructed like a conventional frame for a snow clearing plow with steel clearing board.
- the scope of the invention but should not exclusively be based on a special frame construction be limited.
- the frame 14 a longitudinally extending upper mounting member 40 that A lower mounting element extends across the full width of the plow 41, which extends accordingly across the width of the plow, as well as several spaced apart and over the Width of the plow side by side, concave curved Cross struts 44 located between the upper mounting member 40 and the lower mounting element 41 and extend to this are attached.
- the upper mounting element is usually an angle profile with a mounting leg 47 and one in the right Angle to this essentially radially extending Leg 48.
- the cross struts 44 are also here, as shown in the drawings to make angle profiles with a V-shaped Cross-section.
- the legs 49 of the "V" end in concave curved front end faces 50, the curvature of the Cross struts or the end faces similar to the curvature of the concave curved clearing board 18 is executed.
- the end faces 50 of the cross struts 44 are curved in an arc and have a radius of curvature that matches the radius of curvature of the Clearing boards 18 is adapted.
- Each cross strut 44 has an upper angle profile end 52, the cut along a radial line or a radial plane is through the center of the curvature of the front face 50 goes.
- the radially extending leg 48 of the Upper mounting element 40 is aligned with the upper end of the angle 52 created and welded to this, so that with this coplanar contact line the position of the mounting leg 47 is ensured relative to the clearing board 18.
- each cross strut 44 is cut in a similar manner, preferably along a radial plane through the Center of the radius of curvature of the front face 50 goes through.
- the lower mounting member 41 has in the preferred Embodiment a lower angle profile 56 and a flat Mounting plate 57, which is preferably on the radially extending leg 60 of the angle profile 56 abuts so that the mounting leg 59 of the angle profile 56 and the mounting plate 57 are essentially coplanar.
- the frame 14 is composed in that the angle profiles be cut precisely so that the cross struts 44th bent with the desired radius of curvature and that, using conventional stops or fittings to keep the elements in their exact assignment to each other, the elements are welded together.
- FIGS. 1, 2 and 3 Frame around a conventional frame As I said, it is the one shown in FIGS. 1, 2 and 3 Frame around a conventional frame.
- the general structure of all frames is in some Points similar. So are preferably at least four cross struts 44 on at least one, but preferably on two (upper and lower) mounting plates (longitudinal struts) attached.
- the profile shapes of the mounting plates and cross struts can vary.
- the clearing board 18 is preferably made of a polyethylene plastic with ultra high molecular weight (UHMW: ultra high molecular weight) and is usually 9.55 mm thick (3/8 ").
- UHMW ultra high molecular weight
- a suitable UHMW plastic is among the registered Brand names HOSTALEN GUR412LS and GUR422 distributed and is available from Hoechst (in America).
- the UHMW polyethylene material has a very low coefficient of friction, a relatively high abrasion resistance and a sufficient flexural strength and thermal stretch limit to Snow clearance conditions to work. With the preferred Embodiment, the material is initially flat Sheet material into the curved one shown in the drawings Arrangement rolled or rolled. The material would be without a support this curved shape does not last for an extended period of time maintained.
- FIGS. 1 to 3 Frame 14 the clearing board 18 on the upper fastening leg 47 and on the lower mounting plate 57 by means of Fasteners 61 mounted, which preferably a Have square shank, preferably through square holes fits in the clearing board 18.
- cross struts 44 for a curved support of the clearing board 18 care when the plow is in use, taking the scraper the opportunity is open to himself during his deployment bend or "jump" to the operation of the plow to improve.
- gap X in the preferred embodiment expediently designed such that it is between a minimal Distance near the top portion of the clearing board 18 and one maximum distance near the lower portion of the clearing board 18 varies, i.e. resembles half a sickle.
- Gap can jump or bend the clearing board over one wide area of the clearing board can be controlled, resulting in a improved application behavior of the clearing board when rolling up and lateral removal of the snow with the front Surface 19 leads.
- FIGS. 21 and 22 The features of the plow described so far are known as also shown in FIGS. 21 and 22, in which the described Arrangement from the prior art is shown.
- the vertically extending gap i.e. the space between the clearing board 18 and the section thereof facing the Cross strut 44 can be clearly seen in FIG. 21 as distance X. 22 is shown even more clearly in the cross-sectional view, that the gap X is the distance between the Back 17 of the clearing board 18 and the curved front face 50 of the leg 49 of the cross strut 44 is. That gap X starts bending the clearing board 18 during operation.
- Foreign material which is provided with the reference symbol 62 in FIG. 21, collects in gap X and fills it up. This foreign material gets between the legs 49 of the cross strut 44 and is jammed there.
- the foreign material can not only street dirt, but also ice formations or chunks of ice, when operating the plow in severe weather conditions may occur.
- the foreign particles prevent the desired one Deflection of the clearing board 18 or leave the desired one Deflection only partially.
- the plow 10 is therefore due to the low friction properties of the clearing board 18 made of polyethylene even with the jammed foreign material work and work better than plows with conventional ones Steel sheets are equipped.
- clearing boards are thwarted or reduced.
- FIGS. 1 to 6 provided according to the invention that a body made of elastic or elastically deformable material 70 between the cross strut 44 and the clearing board 18 is inserted such that at least one Section of the gap X filled with the elastic material is.
- any block or solid-like, elastic or flexible material be understood, even at the temperatures that the clearing device or plow 10 is normally exposed, maintains a degree of elasticity. With elasticity is the property of the material meant to act under force deform and resume the original shape, when the force ceases. The elastically deformable material "springs" back to its original shape.
- Elastic deformable material includes natural elastic materials, thermosetting materials and thermoplastics, in particular those characterized as natural or synthetic elastomers are or the natural or synthetic elastomers contain as constituents, polymers or composite materials thereof, including but not limited to natural rubber, Fluorine elastomers, polyurethane elastomers, styrene-butadiene rubber, CIS-1,4-polybutaties, CIS-1,4, polyisoprene, butyl rubber, Ethylene propylene polymer, ethylene butyl polymer, neoprene, Nitrile rubber, silicone rubber, polysulfide rubber, Polyacrylate rubber and thermoplastic polyolefins.
- natural rubber Fluorine elastomers, polyurethane elastomers, styrene-butadiene rubber, CIS-1,4-polybutaties, CIS-1,4, polyisoprene, butyl rubber, Ethylene propylene polymer
- Elastic deformable material should also include liquid Foams and sprays that become flexible, elastically deformable solid-like materials in dried or hardened Solidify condition, as well as polymer foams and in particular one- or two-component, flexible polyurethane foams understood that are particularly suitable for retrofitting.
- the elastically deformable Material a thermoplastic elastomer, which is under the brand name Santoprene 101-64 available from Mile Rubber & Packaging Co. is. This material has a degree of compression of approximately 23% at 25 ° C and an elongation limit of about 400%.
- the Test hardness is about 50 (the usable hardness range is between 20 and 80, preferably between 40 to 60) and the material shows no brittle fracture at low temperatures.
- the elastically deformable material 70 has a triangular shape Blocks 72 with one extending through the block central, cylindrical opening 73.
- the triangular block is dimensioned such that it is between the legs 49 of the Cross strut 44 fits into it.
- the triangular block 72 extends in the idle state of the Plow 10 beyond the curved front faces 50, to completely fill the gap X and the back or rear surface 17 of the clearing board 18 touch.
- Fig. 6 it can be clearly seen that the outer surfaces of the triangular block 72 are straight.
- the length dimension of the triangular Blocks 72 are larger than the vertically extending curved one Length over which the clearing board 18 bends, and this The length of the block is designated by the reference symbol Y in FIG. 6.
- Reference character "Y" is used throughout the description, around the vertical longitudinal extent of the elastically deformable To designate material 70 in the gap X.
- the excess material or the end regions 74 (only one end region 74 is shown in FIG.
- FIGS. 1 to 6 shows the triangular block 72 in contact with the back 17 of the Clearing boards over the vertical length Y of the gap X. This is only for drawing and illustration purposes. Indeed the triangular block 72 does not or need not necessarily the back 17 of the clearing board 18 over the Touch the vertical length Y of the gap X.
- FIGS. 4A and 5A show an alternative embodiment the invention in a representation that corresponds to FIGS. 4 and 5.
- the triangular block 72 is all over itself vertically extending longitudinal dimension Y changed to smaller To have outer surface dimensions. Even the modified block 72A has a central cylindrical passage 73A.
- the end sections 74 of the modified block 72A are like the triangular one Block 72 is formed for the aforementioned purposes.
- There the changed block 72A expands in the gap X, the Gap X reduced by an amount that in the drawing with the reference symbol A is designated in FIGS. 4A and 5A, this Distance A between the back 17 of the clearing board and one front outer surface 75 formed on the modified block 72A is.
- Gap A can get foreign material like road debris, here with Reference numeral 62 denotes, or ice plates, here with reference numerals 64 designated, collect.
- the gap X is consequently thereby completely filled in that foreign material 62, 64 before modified block 72A protrudes. If the by means of the arrow in Fig. 5A shown snow force on the front surface 19 of the Clearing board 18 acts, the clearing board 18 can still bend resiliently and the gap X to the dimension X ', as shown downsize.
- the reduced gap X 'in FIG. 5A is larger than the reduced gap X 'in Fig.
- the scraper board is further able to bend and as a result suitable the roll-up and lateral removal movement of the Improve snow over its area. Accordingly, the invention is therefore not necessarily limited to that elastically deformable material fills the gap X, because that Clearing board is still according to its design advantages will bend or jump if elastically deformable material 70 the gap X as shown in FIGS. 4A and 5A only partially filled. It is understood that the suspension quality of the clearing board 18 is optimized when the elastically deformable Material 70 essentially completely fills the gap.
- FIG. 6 Another modification of the triangular block 72 is with the triangular block 72B shown in FIG.
- the additional Change is the removal of the end portions 74 of the triangular block 72 which, as with reference to FIG 1 to 6 has been explained, between the cross strut 44 and the upper fastening leg 47 on the one hand and between the cross strut 44 and the lower mounting plate 57 is clamped.
- the modified block 72B therefore only extends over the length Y as shown in Fig. 6. Hold the legs 49 of the cross strut 44 the modified triangular block 72B within the Cross strut 44 fixed.
- a rectangular block made of elastically deformable Material 70 has.
- the rectangular block is 77 dimensioned such that it extends over a length Y or alternatively extends over a greater length to the one hand the radial extending leg 48 of the upper mounting element 40 and on the other hand the radially extending lower leg 60 of the lower mounting element 41 in the assembled rest position to touch.
- the cross section of the rectangular block 77 is dimensioned such that the two rear edges 78 touch the V-leg 49 of the cross strut 44, while doing so a sealed cavity 79 between the rectangular Release block 77 and the crown of the cross strut in the Foreign material cannot enter.
- the vertex cavity 79 enables a deformation of the elastically deformable material of the rectangular block 77 when the scraper 18, such as shown in Fig. 9 bends regardless of the presence of any Foreign material between the leg end faces 50, the clearing board 18 and the rectangular block 77.
- Embodiments has the elastically deformable material Form of an elastically deformable strip 80.
- the elastic deformable strip 80 is on one side of a double-sided Adhesive tape 81 attached, which is preferably a elastically deformable coated on both sides with an adhesive or damping material.
- the other side of the double-sided Band 81 is attached to the back 17 of the clearing board 18.
- the band 81 and the one have elastically deformable Strips 80 together a thickness slightly larger than the gap is X, so that in the assembled idle state, like it is shown in Fig. 12, the front curved end faces 50 of the cross strut 44 touch the strip 80 firmly.
- the double-sided Band 81 allows precise positioning of the elastic deformable strip 80 for the installation of the clearing board 18 in the frame 14. Depending on the assembly technology, this can double-sided adhesive tape 81 replaced by other assembly techniques become. Alternatively, the elastically deformable material of the double-sided adhesive tape 81 alone the elastically deformable Form material 70 and a separate or additional damping Strip 81 (with an adhesive coating on only one side) can replace the elastically deformable strip 80. The elastic deformable strips 80 can also simply instead with an adhesive layer for attachment to the back 17 of the Clearing boards can be coated. From Fig. 11 it is clear that the Length Y of the elastically deformable strip 80 is not greater can be as the distance between the exposed edge of the upper mounting leg 47 and the exposed edge of the lower mounting plate 57.
- FIGS. 1 to 17 Another embodiment of the invention is in 13 to 17 shown.
- the one shown in Figs. 13 and 14 Frame 14A has one of frame 14 of FIGS. 1 through 12 different structure, but is in the essential elements like the frame described above, so that the Description of the frame 14A shown in Figs. 13 and 14 for same components same reference numerals as in the description of the frame 14 can be used in FIGS. 1 to 3.
- the cross strut 44A has no V-shape, but is included as a flat plate executed only one leg 49A, the front or front End face 50A is curved.
- the cross strut 44A is on one locked lower mounting member 41, which, as described, has an angle profile 56 and a flat lower mounting plate 57.
- the upper mounting element 40A (now in the form of segments between adjacent cross struts 44A) is approximately in the middle, i.e. halfway through the Cross brace 44A, positioned with its mounting leg 47A and its radially extending leg 48A with the Leg 49A of the cross strut 44A are welded, as with Reference numeral 83 in Fig. 14 is indicated.
- the cross strut 44A therefore differs from the previously described cross strut 44 through an upper end region 84, which extends radially extending leg 48A protrudes. It is more important that the cross strut 44A of that described in FIGS.
- Cross strut 44 differs in that the front curved Face 50A a progressively increasing gap X between itself and the rear surface 17 of the clearing board 18. This is in Fig. 13 by the gap dimensions X-1, X-2, X-3. . . X-N shown extending from the top of the clearing board 18 change increasing towards its lower end. Preferably vary the gap dimensions such that a gap in the form of a Semi-crescent (moon-shaped) is produced, with other configurations possible are.
- the progressive gap X is in that assembled hibernation right from the start in the frame construction constructed in, so that the clearing board 18 a little Bounce back or bend at its top section and a significantly greater bending at its lower, transversely extending Section can have.
- the intentional one Gap improves the property of the plow, the snow in roll up the curvature of the clearing board 18.
- Providing one increasing gap is known in itself. According to the invention However, it is ensured that the increasing gap X serves its intended purpose. It is understood that the Gap X intentionally (as in this embodiment) or at random (as in the embodiments in FIGS. 1 to 12) due to of manufacturing tolerances, the assembly process etc. non-uniform can be.
- the elastically deformable material 70 is in the form of a grooved Strip 85 with a formed on one of its sides, extending groove or channel 86.
- the Groove 86 has side walls 87 which define the leg 49A of the cross strut 44A, and a groove base 88 which is in contact with the front curved end surface 50A of the cross strut 44A.
- the Grooved strip 85 is preferably dimensioned such that its thickness between an outer strip back 89, which the back surface 17 of the clearing board 18 is opposite, and the Groove bottom 88 varies progressively according to the gap X. An important difference is that that shown as dimension Y in FIG.
- the length of the grooved strip 85 in the gap X is not the vertical length of the clearing board 18 as in the previously described Embodiments must correspond.
- the trained as an increasing gap ensures Gap X bending the clearing board 18 over its lower itself transversely extending section. Accordingly, the grooved needs Strip 85 only over the lower section of the cross strut 44A to accommodate the bending of the clearing board this scraper section, as shown in Figs. 13 and 14, ensure.
- a collection of foreign material in the section of the gap X, which is not partially or completely with elastically deformable material 70 is filled, the desired Do not negatively affect the operation of the plow 10.
- 17 is a modification of the grooved strip 85 shown, which to that explained with reference to FIGS. 11 and 12 and described embodiment is based. In which 17, the groove is omitted.
- the argument 85A can be attached to the rear surface 17 of the clearing board 18 a double-sided adhesive tape 81 (not shown) or by means of an adhesive coating on the outer back of the strip 89A be attached.
- FIGS. 1 to 12 the frame in Fig. 18 is with the frame 14 according to FIGS. 1 to 12 almost identical. Extends differently the fastening leg 47 of the upper mounting element 40 vertically upwards and not, as in FIGS. 1 to 12, in the vertical direction downward. This is only intended to illustrate that 14 variations are possible with the frame. It is not for any of them in both embodiments, the alignment of the top Mounting element 40 to change to an elastically deformable material in a deliberately constructed, varying gap X, as shown in Fig. 13 apply. With Fig. 18 clarifies that the concave, i.e.
- the triangular block 72A shown in Fig. 19 has a thickness which preferably extends from its upper end 89 to its lower End 90, adapted to the increasing change in gap X, decreased. This dimensional coordination is preferred for functionality as shown in the 4A and 5A, this is not necessary and the width of the triangular blocks 72A could be constant.
- Fig. 19 shows also that the triangular block is an extending inside may have central opening 73A.
- 20A, 20B, 20C and 20D are alternative embodiments of the elastically deformable material 70 in shape of modified triangular blocks 72.
- a solid triangular block 72B is shown. If the scraper 18 bends, the elastically deformable Material spread on both sides of the cross strut 44, wherein the elastically deformable material behind the front curved end face 50 bulges.
- the dimensionally stable shown in Fig. 20 C. triangular block 72C has one in its apex trained semicircular extending over its entire length Throat 91.
- triangular block 72D is a combination of the triangular blocks 72A and 72C.
- 20C is a triangular block 72E shown which is a central triangular Has recess 93, the outer surfaces of the triangular Blocks 72E as wall sections with substantially the same Thicknesses are formed.
- the recess 93 is not complete triangular, as optional a semicircular throat 91A may be provided in the apex, as is related to FIG 20C has been explained, so that a semicircular wall section is formed in the recess 93.
- the selection of the special construction depends on various factors, including the dimensions of the elastically deformable mass and the properties of the selected elastically deformable Materials.
- the elastically deformable material should be of its Hardness and bending stiffness should not be such that bending of the clearing board 18 is prevented, but the elastically deformable Material should preferably allow that Bend the clearing board 18 in the same or approximately the same dimensions as if there was no foreign material in gap X.
- the elastically deformable material 70 must be sufficient Have stability that is a build-up of foreign material completely prevented in gap X or prevented as far as that the gap X is only to a certain extent with foreign material fills.
- the construction of the body of the elastically deformable Material as through the numerous embodiments was disclosed taking these considerations into account.
- the 23 and 23A, 24 and 24A and 25 are embodiments shown for retrofit applications of the invention.
