Snow/ice melter for automotive vehicles

摘要

An improved ice and snow melting system employing motor vehicle hot exhaust gases includes a stub pipe for bolt-on clamping to the rear of a motor vehicle exhaust pipe in parallel-spaced realtion, in forward direction the stub pipe divides in a "Y" shaped configuration; from each arm of the "Y" a flexible tube leads forward and outward to a portion adjustable to heat a vehicle drive wheel and road surface traction area; for valving hot gases from the motor vehicle exhaust into the system a flexible tube is applied in "U" shape and through frictional fit to connect the rear of the vehicle exhaust pipe with the stub-tube; when not in use the flexible tube may be removed and stored in the trunk of the motor vehicle.
