  • the snowplow accessory consists of a supporting frame 1 comprising a removal scraper 2, which preferably consists of polymeric plastic material, but may also be fabricated of other material.
  • the supporting frame 1 is rotatably fixed to the bracing tube 4 of the snowplow through a casing 3 in which a spindle 3' is adjustable by means of a handle 5 and the end of which is adjustable in a casing 1' of the supporting frame 1.
  • a pressure spring 14 is provided between the bottom of the casing 1' and the end of the spindle 3' mounted in the latter, in such manner that the spindle 3' is resiliently adjustable in the casing 1'; the clearance of the spindle 3' is given by the size of a slot 25 in the casing 1, in which a bolt 26 rigidly connected with the spindle 3' is guided, the latter preventing the spindle 3' from being completely withdrawn from the casing 1.
  • a runner 6 is swingably connected with the frame 1 by which the distance of the removal scraper 2 from the ground is determined. As the edge of the removal scraper 2 is continuously worn away during service, the axis 8 of the runner 6 may be set in different mountings 8' and may be adjusted according to the degree of wear of the removal scraper 2.
  • the mounting of the runner 6 is provided with a bearing 7 which is rotatable about a bearing pin rigidly connected with the frame 1.
  • the runner 6 may easily be adapted to each change of direction of the snowplow.
  • the removal scraper 2 must lie close against the scraper 9 of the frame 13.
  • the removal scraper 2 must be able to turn aside in order to prevent damage to the device.
  • This is attained by applying two resiliently mounted chains 10 or the like (FIG- URES 1 and 3), which are fastened to the supporting frame 1 are connected with the plow frame 13 through guide rollers 11 and draw the supporting frame 1 in the direction of the plowshare, firmly pressing the removal scraper 2 towards the scraper 9.
  • tightening screws 12 are inserted in the chains 10.
  • FIGURE 3 illustratesin rear view-two segments of a divided snowplow according to an an embodiment of the snowplow accessory as shown in FIGURE 1.
  • a device according to the invention is suspended on each segment on the continuous bracing tube 4 of the snowplow. It is important to emphasize that the resilient mounting permits lifting up of the removal scraper 2 by means of the pressure spring 14 in case of small obstacles. It is convenient to select the strength of the spring 14 and the tension of the chains 10 in such manner that, in case of small obstructions, the removal scraper 2 is lifted up to rest closely against the scraper 9, and is only moved away from the scraper 9 and swings back in case of severe obstructions.
  • the snowplow accessory If the snowplow accessory is to be put out of service, it is lifted by means of the spindle 3' driven by the handle 5, which is screwed up in the casing 3 by means of its thread. A rotation of the handle in opposite direction lowers the device, thus putting the latter into service.
  • FIGURES 6 and 7 show another embodiment which in principleis similar to that of FIGURES 1 and 3, wherein the device is lifted up and lowered by an impulse provided by the motor 21.
  • the motor 21 may for example be an electric, hydraulic or pneumatic motor.
  • a rack 19 is provided which is in mesh with a gear wheel 20 fixed on the bracing tube 4.
  • a reversible motor 21 drives the gear wheel 20 by means of a step-down gearing 22, thus lifting up or lowering the casing 3.
  • the removal scraper 2 connected with the casing 3 through the supporting frame 1 and the runner 6 through the rack 19 are thus lifted or lowered.
  • FIGURES 4 and 5 another embodiment is represented.
  • the supporting frame consists of two parts 1, 1a connected by a rotating bolt 29, the part 1a being swingably suspended on the bracing tube 4.
  • Resiliently mounted chains 10 or the like, acting on the part 1 of the supporting frame and on the upper part of the plow frame 13 press the slush removal scraper 2 against the rear side of the snow scraper 9 of the plowshare.
  • the material of the removal scraper 2 may be polymeric plastic material, which simultaneously presents the advantage that it is not corroded by chemical substances.
  • the latter may be provided with a steel lamination 17; in FIGURE 2 and in the corresponding FIGURE 8, which illustrate this embodiment in section along line II, said lamination is cast in the plastic material, openings 18 in the steel lamination 17 permitting the plastic material to pass through during the casting or pressing operation and firmly to embrace the lamination.
  • FIGURES 9 and 10 two removal scrapers 2 are represented in section, wherein the lamination 17' is arranged externally, covering only the front as shown in FIGURE 9, and partially embracing the plastic material as shown in FIGURE 10.
