I. BONlC Aug. 31, 1965 DEVICE FOR CLEARING SNOW FROM THE PATH OF AN AUTOMOBILE Filed Feb. 6
BY Add, My m ATTOFNEYf United States Patent 3,203,118 DEVICE FOR CLEARING SNOW FROM THE PATH 0F AN AUTOMOBILE Isaac Bonic, 3000 N. 54th St., Milwaukee, Wis. Filed Feb. 6, 1963, Ser. No. 256,768 4 Claims. (Cl. 37-53) This invention relates to a device tor clearing snow trom the path of an automobile .wheeL- The device herein disclosed is an improvement upon the device disclosed in my companion application Serial No. 54,-519 filed Sept. 7, 1960 now Patent No. 3,088,230.
As in the companion application above identified, the broad objective of the present device is to provide a simple and effective means of clearing snow and ice trom in :tiront of a vehicle wheel to provide a short, snowtree path to facilitate getting the vehicle into motion. For clearing sofit snow or unfrozen slush, the device operates as a scraper and is formed to extend beneath the curve of the tire casing nearly to the area of road contact. For removing frozen or semi-frozen material, the device operates as a chisel whose blade may be swung in an arc to which the handle is radial or which may be pushed forward in the plane of the handle.
To facilitate scraping action, as well as to stiiien the blade longitudinally, chisel shoes are transversely aligned with each other at opposite faces of the blade and they extend reauwardly from the chisel edges. These shoes are .fabricatcd of sheet metal in the instant device and the sheet metal iorms concave scrapers at each side of the lower margin of the blade, portions of the sheet metal shoes being bent toward each other at the blade margin to produce the desired chisel edges.
The blade handle is adjustable to project laterally to either side or rearwardly from its connection with the top of the blade. A special bracket is tolded from sheet material to provide a generally fiat bed spanning the top of the blade. the margins of the bracket being secured to each other through the bed.
Mounted in the bed portion of the bracket is an upwardly extending bolt equipped with a wing nut. The handle has a terminal head which is preferably designed so that it may also serve as a chisel for removing ice. It has a broad flat surface complementary to the bed provided by the bracket and it is notched from its chisel edge to receive the upstanding bolt. Protu-berances embossed upwardly in the bed portion of the bracket at regular angular intervals are received into corresponding sockets. When the protuberances are engaged in the sockets in a selected angular adjustment of the handle respecting the blade, the tightening of the wing not on the bolt will hold the chisel head of the handle securely engaged with the bracket in the desired handle position.
in the drawings:
FIG. 1 is a view in perspective showing a device embodying the invention.
FIG. 2 is a somewhat enlarged side elevation of the device shown in FIG. 1, portions of the handle being broken away.
FIG. 3 is a view taken in section on the line 3-6 of FIG. 2.
FIG. 4 is a plan view of the device shown in FIG. 3.
FIG. 5 is a greatly enlarged tragmentary perspective view of the handle mounting bracket.
FIG. '6 is a view on the scale of FIG. 5 showing the inverted chisel head terminus of the handle, the rest of the handle being broken away.
FIG. 7 is a fragmentary detail view in perspective showing a modified embodiment of the invention.
A scraper embodying the invention comprises a blade 10 having a substantially horizontal lower edge reenforced by connect-ion therewith of the concave shoeice torming strips 12 and 14 which are held by rivets '16 or otherwise laminated at their upper edges in face contact with the blade and which have laterally directed and preferably sharpened lower edges 18.
At its front end the blade extends forwardly with an upper margin '20 at a sharply acute angle to the bottom of the blade so that it is capable of extending beneath the periphery of an automobile tire. Generally triangular portions 22 of the scrapers 12 and 14 are preferably turned inwardly as best shown in FIG. 4 and constitute transversely disposed flanges convergent toward each other and the intervening blade and welded at 24 to the blade margin to form chisel shoes. There may be spaced at 2-6 between these shoes, since the scrapers 12 and 14 are partially below the level oi blade 10 and the chisel edges are, therefore, found in a zone in which no portion of the blade 10 intervenes.
In the embodiment shown in FIG. 7, the front end portions 220 and 221 of the scraper blades 120 and 140 are simply pressed together upon the blade margin 20 to torm a point at 300 rather than a chisel edge such as is shown at 30 in FIG. 1. In all constructions, the chisel edges 30 have a very substantial horizontal extent transversely of the blade.
The generally horizontal top margin 32 of the scraper blade 10 is spanned by the bed portion 34 of a bracket 36 which has its terminal portions 38 and 40 brought together at opposite sides of the blade 10 and connected as by rivets 42. It will, of course, be understood that the invention is not concerned with the question as to whether rivets or spot welding connects the parts.
Before the bracket is attached to the blade, a bolt 44 is mounted therein to project upwardly from the bed portion 34 and to receive a fastening device such as the wing nut 46. At equal radial distances from the bolt and preferably at equal angular spacing from each other, there are protuberances 48 stamped to project upwardly from the bed :34 of the bracket. The handle 50 has a terminal head 52 which desirably is also provided with a chisel edge '54 intersected by a slot 56 of such dimensions as to receive the bolt 44. in order to receive the several protuberances 48, the terminal head 52 of handle 50 is provided with sockets 58, the arrangement being such that when the handle is turned right side up (it is shown inverted in FIG. 6), it may be engaged with blade 10 to project laterally at either side of the blade or to extend rearwardly in alignment with the plane of the blade, as in FIG. 4.
Because of the slot 56 and the relatively slight projection of protubcrances 48, it is not necessary to remove the wing nut 46 for the purpose of attaching or dismantling the blade. If the nut is turned to raise it to the position of FIG. 5 from the position of FIG. 1, the handle may readily be removed or replaced. A relatively slight manipulation of the nut will either lock the handle securely as in FIGS. 1, 2 and 4 or will release it tor storage or for independent use as a chisel, the parts being shown in separated positions in FIGS 5 and 6.
In using the device to dislodge snow or slush from the path of a vehicle wheel, the sharpened scraping edges 18 of the reinforcing shoes or scrapers 12 and 14 will be found very advantageous. If the device is carried knocked down in a tool kit, .only a moments time is required to assemble the handle to the blade in the desired position tor use.
If it be desired to employ a short chisel tor removing ice, the terminal head 52 of the handle will provide such a chisel without necessitating assembly of the handle to the blade. For a longer chisel or one which may be swung from side to side, the handle is assembled to the 3 blade and the chisel surfaces 30 of the shoe portions 22 of the device are employed.
It is particularly to be noted that in the preferred :01- ganization of the parts, the chisel edge 54 of the terminal head 52 of the handle will normally lie behind the margin :of bracket 36 as best shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 4.
I claim:
