SNOW THROWER
A snow thrower includes a motor, an auger driven by the motor to rotate, a handle device for a user to operate, an auger housing for containing the auger and a frame for connecting the handle device and the auger housing. The auger housing is made of at least two different materials.
WORK MACHINE FOR HANDLING WORK OBJECT
A work machine includes a motive portion, a work portion driven by the motive portion, a discharge path for discharging a work object obtained as a result of the work portion rotating, and a control portion for controlling the motive portion. The control portion includes a detection portion for detecting that the discharge path is clogged with the work object, and a work control portion for, upon the detection portion detecting that the discharge path is clogged with the work object, controlling the work portion and performing an elimination operation for eliminating the clogging with the work object in the discharge path.
ENDLESS SCREW ROTOR SYSTEM, SNOWBLOWER PROVIDED WITH SUCH A SYSTEM, KIT FOR ASSEMBLING THE SAME, AND CORRESPONDING METHODS OF MANUFACTURING, ASSEMBLING AND OPERATING ASSOCIATED THERETO
A snowblower for blowing snow, the snowblower comprising a propulsion assembly being operatively disposed about a fluid passage for propelling the snow. The snowblower also comprises a pallet assembly being operatively connected to the propulsion assembly for assisting in the propelling of the snow to be blown, the pallet assembly comprising at least one pallet component being rotatable about a main pivot axis, said at least one pallet component comprising base and distal components, the base component being mountable about the main pivot axis of the pallet assembly, and the distal component being made of a flexible material capable of elastic deformation, said distal component being further positioned, shaped and sized for allowing the passage of debris to pass by between a distal edge of the distal component and a complementary component of the fluid passage.
SNOW THROWER
A snow thrower includes a motor, an auger driven by the motor to rotate, a handle device for a user to operate, an auger housing for containing the auger and a frame for connecting the handle device and the auger housing. The auger housing is made of at least two different materials.
EXTENSIBLE SNOWBLOWER
The present disclosure concerns a snowblower, comprising an auger housing configurable in a compacted configuration and in an extended configuration wherein a length of the auger housing is greater in the extended configuration than in the compacted configuration; and an auger assembly mounted to the auger housing and comprising a telescopic drive shaft assembly including first and second shaft sections slidably mounted to each other to substantially conform to the length of the auger housing in each configuration; and snow-gathering devices mounted to the first and second shaft sections and rotatable therewith. It also concerns a walk-behind snowblower assembly and a motorized snowblower assembly comprising such a snowblower.
AUTOMATIC SNOW REMOVAL DEVICE AND SAFE SNOW THROWING METHOD THEREOF
A self-moving snow removal device and a safe snow throwing method protecting a human or an object from damage by snow or miscellaneous matter. The snow removal device includes: a moving module, driving the snow removal device to move; a working module, including a working motor and a snow throwing mechanism, where the snow throwing mechanism is driven by the working motor to collect accumulated snow and miscellaneous matter on the ground and throw the accumulated snow and miscellaneous matter out of the snow throwing mechanism, and a maximum height of a thrown object in the air from the ground is referred to as a snow throwing height; and a control module, configured to control the working module or the moving module to enable the snow throwing height to be less than a predetermined snow throwing height threshold.
SNOW BLOWER IMPLEMENT
Implements, such as snow blower implements and buckets, have a frame forming a housing with at least one aperture arranged to provide improved visibility for an operator of a power machine on which the implement is mounted.
Auger for a snow thrower
A snow thrower and an auger. The snow thrower includes the auger. The auger includes a supporting shaft having a central axis, a snow throwing bracket configured to throw snow, a left snow scraper configured to push snow to the right towards a region where the snow throwing bracket is located, a right snow scraper configured to push snow to the left towards the region where the snow throwing bracket is located, a left supporting plate secured to a left end of the supporting shaft, and a right supporting plate secured to a right end of the supporting shaft. The left snow scraper and the right snow scraper are symmetrical about a plane perpendicular to the central axis. An angle of the left snow scraper around the central axis is greater than 180 degrees and smaller than 360 degrees.
Driving system for at least one auger, kit and method for the installation of same, and snow removal device provided with same
A driving system for driving at least one auger of a snow removing device comprising at least one at least one self-adjusting chain tensioner. A first portion of the driving system is positioned within an auger housing and a second portion of the driving system is positioned outside the auger housing. The roller chain is adapted to move across a third opening provided in the auger housing. The first portion is covered by a front guard to prevent snow or debris contained in the auger housing to contact said first portion. The front guard is provided with an opening adapted to surround a portion of a shaft element of the auger with a play between periphery of the opening and the periphery of a corresponding portion the shaft element. The play is either small enough to prevent water and or debris to enter the first casing, or filled with a filling element and/or covered with a sealing element secured to the front guard or the corresponding portion of the shaft element of the at least one auger, to have the play small enough to prevent water and/or debris to enter the first casing. The second portion prevent snow or debris present around the snow removing device to contact the said second portion. A snow blower provided with the driving system, a kit comprising parts and/or components of the driving system, a method for assembling the driving system, and a method for manufacturing some components or parts of the driving system.
METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SAFELY AND QUICKLY REMOVING SNOW FROM NARROW PEDESTRIAN AND VEHICULAR PATHS
A method and system is disclosed which provides for a zero turn stand-on snow blower with only two powered wheels and two free wheeling casters which provides for the ability to blow snow from narrow paths, turn around without leaving the sidewalk, automatically turn off the auger and present a shovel for performing quick detailed shoveling tasks when stepping off the snow blower.
