ABSTRACT:
An apparatus, carried by a vehicle, for excavating packed snow or ice from a roadway in a swath equivalent to the width of the apparatus. A strong and unitary frame carries a transmission actuated by a vehicle PTO to power an axle shaft. The frame houses a hopper-like collector assembly with a chamber bisected by a paddle assembly on the axle shaft. The collector and paddle assemblies cooperate to slowly move snow or ice into a vertically oriented chute. Thereafter, the paddle assembly and vertical chute cooperate to rapidly propel snow or ice through a directional discharge chute. The apparatus may have one or more combinations of operative components to determine width of the snow or ice removal swath.
