PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve a snow removal capacity by heating snow collected by a rotor provided at the front of a vehicle body and liquifying it and further, heating the water by a heating section and scattering it. SOLUTION: A rotor 2 collecting snow onto a vehicle body and a snow cover 3 covering the collected snow and the rotor 2 are provided at the front of the vehicle body 1. A tank 4 is arranged at the rear end in the snow cover 3 and a heating burner 5 for the tank 4 is equipped at the underside of the tank 4 to melt snow. A pump 6 sucking the water in the tank is installed and connected to a heat transfer tube 7 to heat the sucked water. The heat transfer tube 7 is heated by the burner 8 and the heated high temperature water is sprinkled from a sprinkling part 9 connected to the rear end of the heat transfer tube 7. In this way, snow can be rapidly removed and the cost is more inexpensive than snow removal by a snow thawing pipe. Further, since it is transferable, snow in a spacious scope such as an aerodrome can be efficiently melted. Moreover, after snow removal, falling snow is hardly laid because of the action of the hot water.
