RU2493318C2 - Cleaner of ice-crusted road - Google Patents

Abstract

FIELD: transport.

SUBSTANCE: proposed device consists of housing, rotor with ice breaking working members It is to be used with vehicles as towed equipment. Ice-crust cleaners are ganged to sections subject to road surface coverage and vehicle power output. Aforesaid working tools are fixed at rotor and driven by rockers retuned to initial position by springs. Transfer of power from vehicle (power takeoff shaft, hydraulic system) drives the rotor with staggered working members for it to displace broken ice sideways.

EFFECT: higher efficiency and quality.

Description

The invention relates to mechanical engineering, utilities and can be used for cleaning compacted snow and ice from streets and roads.

There is a snow blower driven by an electric motor, which cuts the compacted snow and throws it to the side.

He is unable to clean the ice, has a manual movement of the mechanism, there is no autonomy in the work. [one]

Known ice-breaking machine, the working tools of which are spring-loaded crowbars driven by cams mounted on the chassis. There is an adjustment of the depth of immersion of scrap in ice. [2]

The use of this machine on city roads is inefficient. The current state of the art makes it possible to drive a mechanism from a power take-off shaft and vehicle hydraulics and there is no need to install a separate internal combustion engine.

A known machine for chipping ice from the bridge, consisting of a housing, a drive mechanism (engine), a frame, a lifting and lowering device, working tools mounted movably in a checkerboard pattern and receiving shock impulse with the possibility of returning to its original position using springs. [3]

The machine has a relatively large size and can not perform work on the roads of the city in conjunction with road equipment.

Closest to the claimed solution (adopted as a prototype) is the ice cleaner, in which the working tools are located in the rotor housing and are driven from the rocker arm. It consists of a housing and a rotor, the rotation of which is provided through the transmission. In the rotor are working elements - a bit with the possibility of reciprocating movement from the rocker arms and springs. [four]

The invention solves the issue of clearing icing only of local territories and sidewalks.

The problem to which the invention is directed, is to use an ice cleaner to clean roads from ice.

This is achieved by the fact that ice cleaners are combined into sections. The drive (power take-off shaft or hydraulics) and the lifting and lowering device are provided from the vehicle.

The invention is illustrated in Fig.1-4.

Figure 1 shows one section of an ice cleaner. Positions indicate: connecting bracket 1, housing 2, rotor shaft 3, rocker arm 4, chisel 5, spring 6.

Figure 2 presents a variant of the connection of ice cleaners in the section with the possibility of mechanical drive.

Positions indicate: ice cleaner 7, gearbox 8, gear (chain, belt, gear) 9, connecting beam 10.

Figure 3 shows the connection option of the ice cleaners in the section with the possibility of hydraulic drive.

Positions indicate: ice cleaner 7, connecting beam 10, hydraulic motor (for example, gerotor) 11, oil pipe 12.

Figure 4 shows a method for attaching sections of ice cleaners to a vehicle.

Positions indicate: lifting and lowering device 13, connection to the hydraulic system 14, connection of the power take-off shaft 15.

The proposed ice cleaner works as follows.

Sections of ice cleaners (Figs. 2, 3, 4) with the help of a lifting and lowering device 13 are reduced until the working part of the bit 5 (Fig. 1) touches the ice surface. The design of the lifting and lowering device 13 may be different (for example, as for agricultural trailed equipment).

The drive mechanism starts (power take-off shaft, hydraulic motor) (Figure 4). The gear 9 (FIG. 2) or the hydraulic motor 11 (FIG. 3) rotates the shaft of the rotor 3 (FIG. 1), while the rocker arms 4 give an impulse in a certain sequence to the chisel 5, which perform ice chipping work. The bit 5 is returned to its original position by the springs 6 (Figure 1).

Thus, the elimination of icy phenomena on roads without damaging the pavement, areas, airfields, etc. can be ensured. The quality of work and increased productivity are ensured.
