Abstract
A snow blower implement for a power machine includes a power machine interface having a machine mount configured to engage the implement interface of the power machine. A tool of the implement is coupled to the power machine interface. The tool includes a frame forming an auger housing, and the auger housing includes apertures formed in the housing and arranged to proved an operator of the power machine with visibility, through the apertures, of an implement workspace within or in front of the auger housing while operating the power machine.
Claims19
A snow blower implement configured to be coupled to an implement interface of a power machine, the implement comprising:
- a power machine interface having a machine mount configured to engage the implement interface of the power machine;
- and
- a tool coupled to the power machine interface, the tool having a frame forming an auger housing and the tool including an auger positioned within the auger housing, wherein the auger housing includes at least one group of apertures formed in the housing in a laterally extending pattern with the apertures of the at least one group of apertures positioned laterally relative to each other and configured and arranged to provide an operator of the power machine with visibility, through the at least one group of apertures, of the auger within the auger housing while operating the power machine.
A snow blower implement configured to be coupled to an implement interface of a power machine, the snow blower implement comprising:
- a power machine interface having a machine mount configured to engage the implement interface of the power machine;
- and
- a rotary snow blowing tool coupled to the power machine interface, the rotary snow blowing tool having a frame forming an auger housing, wherein the auger housing comprises:
- first and second spaced apart side plates on outer sides of the auger housing;
- at least one laterally extending section between the first and second spaced apart side plates;
- and
- a plurality of diagonally oriented apertures arranged parallel to each other in the at least one laterally extending section to provide an operator of the power machine with visibility, through the plurality of diagonally oriented apertures, of an implement workspace in front of or within the auger housing.
A snow blower implement configured to be coupled to an implement interface of a power machine, the snow blower implement comprising:
- a power machine interface having a machine mount configured to engage the implement interface of the power machine;
- and
- a tool coupled to the power machine interface, the tool having a frame forming an auger housing, wherein the auger housing includes at least one group of apertures formed in the housing and configured and arranged in a laterally extending pattern to provide an operator of the power machine with visibility, through the at least one group of apertures, of operation of an auger within the auger housing while operating the power machine.
A snow blower implement configured to be coupled to an implement interface of a power machine, the snow blower implement comprising:
- a power machine interface having a machine mount configured to engage the implement interface of the power machine;
- a tool coupled to the power machine interface, the tool comprising:
- a frame forming an auger housing;
- an actuator configured to perform a work function;
- and
- at least one diagonally oriented slot formed in the auger housing and configured and arranged to provide an operator of the power machine with visibility, through the at least one diagonally oriented slot of an implement workspace in front of and within the auger housing while operating the power machine.
A snow blower implement configured to be coupled to an implement interface of a power machine, the implement comprising:
- a power machine interface having a machine mount configured to engage the implement interface of the power machine;
- and
- a tool coupled to the power machine interface, the tool having a frame forming an auger housing, wherein the auger housing includes at least one group of apertures formed in the housing and configured and arranged to provide an operator of the power machine with visibility, through the at least one group of apertures, of an implement workspace in front of or within the auger housing while operating the power machine, wherein the at least one group of apertures formed in the auger housing includes at least one diagonally oriented slot formed in the housing.
