APPARATUS AND SYSTEM FOR CLEARING A ROADWAY SURFACE

摘要

Longitudinally extending nozzles are formed along a leading edge of the scraper blade of snow removal equipment to direct planar jets of air at a road surface to lift snow and ice from the surface of a roadway. A plate, in which pockets have been machined, is mounted on the ground engagement tool of the scraper blade to create the nozzles. The nozzles are connected to a source o f compressed air mounted on the snow removal equipment.
