20120192464 | HIGH SPEED RUNWAY SNOWBLOWER - A snowblower for removing snow from a paved surface, such as roadways and airport runways. The snowblower includes a blower assembly having a blower housing that encloses a pair of rotating side augers and a rotating impeller. The blower housing includes an upper hood. The upper hood is angled from a trailing edge to a leading edge such that the angled upper hood provides enhanced visibility of the operator of the snowblower. Each of the side augers is driven by a hydrostatic drive motor that is positioned above the upper hood to remove the drive motors from within the open interior of the blower housing. The drive motors are driven from a power source separate from the power source used to rotate the impeller. The lower, leading edge of the blower housing includes a V-shaped lower edge to further enhance the direction of snow into the blower housing. | 08-02-2012 |
