ABSTRACT:
This disclosure pertains to a vehicular snow removal device which encloses a quantity of snow and ice into an openable container equipped with steam jackets, permitting the snow to be heated by the steam supplied to the jackets by a steam generating system mounted on the vehicle. While the melting process takes place the water produced thereby is pumped into a water receiving tank mounted on the vehicle. Hydraulic positioning devices move the container from the snow enclosing position to a position directly over the water tank where the container can be opened and any unmelted snow and ice remaining can be dropped into a hopper communicating to the top of the water tank. A cylinder provides end support to the vehicle prohibiting tilting due to the increased weight of the snow and ice in the cantilever supported container.
