ABSTRACT:
A Light Weight Portable Snow Plow for a vehicle having a bumper. The single piece blade is mounted on top of two tubular U-hooks. Each U-hook is inserted into molded pockets on the back of the blade. The U-hooks, in turn, are attached through hubs to a lower tubular U-support. The lower U-support extends downward and rests on the vehicle bumper. An upper U-support is also attached to the hubs. The upper support extends over and rests on the vehicle hood or trunk lid. Support straps are also attached to the hubs. At the distal end of the support straps are hooks to attach the straps to the vehicle wheel well and in turn the tubular supports and the blade to the front or rear of the vehicle. The vehicle bumper engages the rear of the bottom U-support to push the supports and thus the blade. The width of the U-hooks are different causing the blade to sit at an angle to the vehicle. The angle of the blade forces snow to one side as the vehicle moves.
