Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a rotary snow tiller for grooming ski slopes.
  • a rotary snow tiller for grooming ski slopes normally advances in a travelling direction, and comprises a frame; a shaft rotating about a first axis transverse to the travelling direction, and having teeth for breaking up the snow surface; and a protective casing surrounding the shaft.
  • a rotary snow tiller for grooming the snow surface of ski slopes and designed to advance in a travelling direction
  • the rotary snow tiller comprising a frame; a shaft rotating about a first axis transverse to the travelling direction, and having teeth for breaking up the snow surface; and a protective casing surrounding the shaft;
  • the rotary snow tiller being characterized by comprising an adjusting device for selectively adjusting the position of the shaft with respect to the frame.
  • Figure 1 shows a partly schematic side view, with parts removed for clarity, of a rotary snow tiller, for grooming ski slopes, in accordance with the present invention
  • Figure 2 shows a perspective view, with parts removed for clarity, of a variation of the Figure 1 rotary snow tiller.
  • rotary snow tiller 1 provides for tilling a surface layer of snow surface M of ski slopes, and comprises a frame 2; a shaft 3 mounted to rotate with respect to frame 2 about an axis Al, and extending transverse to travelling direction D; a protective casing 4 surrounding shaft 3; a normally flexible finish mat 5 which is connected to casing 4, extends behind shaft 3, and is drawn over the surface of the tilled snow surface M; and an adjusting device 6 for adjusting the position of shaft 3 with respect to frame 2 and casing 4.
  • Frame 2 comprises a bar 7 parallel to axis Al; a hitch device 8 fixed to bar 7 and for connecting rotary snow tiller 1 to the snow groomer vehicle (not shown in the drawings) ; two arc-shaped segments 9 fixed to and transverse to bar 7; and two supporting bars 10 (only one shown in Figure 1) for supporting shaft 3.
  • Rotary snow tiller 1 comprises two adjustable panels 11 which have the purpose to protect casing 4 and finish mat 5 from the snow thrown up by the groomer vehicle not shown in the drawings.
  • Shaft 3 comprises a number of teeth 12 equally spaced about and along axis Al, and each of which projects radially from shaft 3 to penetrate snow surface M.
  • Adjusting device 6 comprises two slides 13 (only one shown in Figure 1), each connected in sliding manner to a respective supporting bar 10; two further supporting bars 14, each arranged transverse to supporting bars 10 and engaging in sliding manner a respective slide 13; and two blocks 15, each fitted to the end of a respective supporting bar 14 and connected in rotary manner to a respective end of shaft 3.
  • one of blocks 15 supports a hydraulic motor 16 for rotating shaft 3 about axis Al.
  • Each slide 13 is connected to respective supporting bar 10 by an actuator 17 - which, in the Figure 1 example, is a double-acting hydraulic cylinder - and is connected to the respective further supporting bar 14 by a further actuator 18 - which, in the Figure 1 example, is also a double-acting hydraulic cylinder.
  • rotary snow tiller 1 tills a surface layer of snow surface M by hydraulic motor 16 rotating shaft 3.
  • the depth of the tilled surface layer of snow surface M depends on the position of teeth 12 and shaft 3 with respect to snow surface M.
  • Adjusting device 6 provides for adjusting the tilling depth, without altering the position of frame 2 and casing 4, by simply activating actuators 18.
  • actuators 17 moves shaft 3 in a direction parallel to travelling direction D, and provides for increasing or reducing recirculation of the tilled snow between casing 4 and shaft 3 for a given tilling depth.
  • adjusting device 6 is replaced by an adjusting device 19, and supporting bars
  • Adjusting device 19 comprises two supporting plates 20 movable with respect to frame 2; and two arms 21 mounted to rotate with respect to frame 2 about an axis A2 parallel to axis Al.
  • Each arm 21 supports a respective supporting plate
  • actuator 22 is a double-acting hydraulic cylinder.
  • Supporting plate 20 is mounted to slide along arm
  • arm 21 engages a guide 23 formed in supporting plate 20, which is movable selectively with respect to arm 21 by an actuator 24 which, in the Figure 2 example, is a double-acting hydraulic cylinder connected to arm 21 and to supporting plate 20.
  • Figure 2 only shows one supporting plate 20, one arm 21, one actuator 22, one guide 23, and one actuator
  • a hydraulic motor 25 is connected to shaft 3 and fixed to one of supporting plates 20 to rotate shaft 3 about respective axis Al.
  • adjusting device 19 provides for adjusting the tilling depth, and for adjusting the position of shaft 3 in a direction parallel to travelling direction D, to reduce the distance between shaft 3 and casing 4 on the inlet side, depending on the rotation direction of shaft 3.
  • shaft 3 can be moved forward or back, for a given tilling depth of snow surface M, to adjust the distance between shaft 3 and casing 4 and so adjust the amount of snow recirculated between casing 4 and shaft 3.
  • This adjustment by adjusting device 19 is made possible by the system of polar coordinates centered about axis A2.
