1. The difference between snow plow and snow thrower

1. Snow plow

Hand-pushed type The roller brush snowplow is a snow clearing equipment driven by a gasoline or diesel engine. Compared with a snow shovel, it does not require human power. You only need to hold the handle to control the direction to complete the snow clearing. No force is required, the engine will drive the snow clearing. The machine automatically walks or retreats. The engine of the hand-pushed roller brush snowplow is equipped with three forward gears and one reverse gear, which can reciprocate snow clearing operations. There is no need for manual pushing and pulling in the forward and backward directions, and the entire process is driven by the engine. The hand-pushed roller brush snow blower sweeps the snow on the road to the left and right sides by reversing the front roller brush. The specific direction of snow sweeping can be adjusted by adjusting the pressure rod to which side needs to be swept. It can sweep 3,600 square meters of snow in one hour, and it can be topped up. One tank of oil can work continuously for four hours, easily replacing more than 20 workers. However, the hand-pushed brush snowplow also has disadvantages. It is not suitable for snow with a thickness of more than 15 cm. If the snow is more than 15 cm thick, a hand-push snow blower must be used.

2. Snow thrower

The drive system of the snow thrower is the same as that of the snow blower. The difference is that the snow blower head is different from the snow blower head. The snow thrower head can eat thicker snow, eat the snow on the road into the bucket through the screw, and then blow the snow in the bucket out through the blower in the snow throw head above. The snow throw distance can be Up to 3-5 meters. There is also no need to push or pull manually, the engine can drive the snow thrower forward and backward by itself.

The engine provides power to the snow thrower when it is working, and the power is transmitted to the snow throw device and traveling system through gears or belts. The snow is collected into the cavity through the collection device. When the snow throwing impeller rotates at high speed, the snow is thrown away with the help of centrifugal force, thereby achieving the purpose of snow removal and throwing. The hand-pushed snow blower can remove 4,000 square meters of snow per hour, saving time, effort and labor. After the snow is removed by the snow thrower, there will be a little residual snow on the ground, but compared with the snow blower, the snow thrower has no limit on the thickness of the snow.

2. How much does a snowplow cost?

The price of a snowplow varies depending on factors such as model, brand, function, etc. Generally speaking, The price of a hand-pushed snowplow ranges from a few thousand yuan to tens of thousands of yuan, while the price of an electric or fuel-powered snowplow is relatively high and may cost hundreds of thousands of yuan or even more. It is recommended to carefully understand the market conditions and product information before purchasing so that you can choose a snowplow that suits you and get better value for money.
