Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Randsteinabweiser für den Schutz des seitlichen Endbereiches einer an einem Schneepflugräumschild befestigten Schneeräumleiste, der als einteiliges Guss- oder Schmiedestück ausgebildet ist, eine rund oder polygonal abgerundete Verschleißkante aufweist und mit einer den Endbereich der Schneeräumleiste umgreifenden Ausnehmung versehen ist, die eine von vorn an der Vorderseite der Schneeräumleiste abgestützte vordere Stützfläche und eine von der Seite her an der Seitenkante der Schneeräumleiste abgestützte seitliche Stützfläche aufweist, wobei die vordere Stützfläche mittels einer Schraubverbindung gegen die Vorderseite der Schneeräumleiste verspannbar ist.The invention relates to a Randsteinabweiser for the protection of the lateral end portion of a fixed to a Schneepflugräumschild snow removal strip, which is formed as a one-piece cast or forged, has a round or polygonal rounded wear edge and is provided with a the end of the snow removal strip encompassing recess, the one of Front supported on the front of the snow removal strip front support surface and supported from the side on the side edge of the snow removal strip lateral support surface, wherein the front support surface is clamped by a screw against the front of the snow removal strip.

Die Randsteinabweiser von Schneeräumleisten und deren Befestigung an der Schneeräumleiste und dem Schneepflugräumschild sind beim Betrieb des Schneepfluges außerordentlich großen Belastungen ausgesetzt, insbesondere wenn der Schneepflugräumschild eine große Masse hat und der Schneepflug schnell fährt. Die beim Betrieb unvermeidbar auftretenden Kräfte, die beim Auftreffen des seitlich vorstehenden Randsteinabweisers auf am Fahrbahnrand befindliche Hindernisse auftreten, überlasten bisweilen die Befestigungseinrichtung, was im ungünstigsten Fall dazu führen kann, dass der Randsteinabweiser sich von der Schneeräumleiste und dem Schneepflugräumschild löst, was insbesondere für den nachfolgenden Straßenverkehr extrem gefährlich ist.The curb deflectors of snow clearing bars and their attachment to the snow clearing bar and the snowplow clearing blade are subjected to extremely high loads during operation of the snow plow, especially if the snow plow blade has a large mass and the snow plow travels fast. The unavoidably occurring during operation forces that occur when hitting the laterally projecting Randsteinabweisers on the roadside obstacles sometimes overload the mounting device, which can lead to the worst case that the curb deflector separates from the snow clearing bar and the Schneepflugräumschild, which is especially for the subsequent road traffic is extremely dangerous.

Ein Randsteinabweiser der eingangs genannten Art ist beispielsweise aus der EP 2 496 770 B1 oder der US 8 782 930 B2 bekannt. Bei dem bekannten Randsteinabweiser erfolgt die Abstützung der auf die Verschleißkante einwirkenden Kräfte im Wesentlichen über die von vorne an der Vorderseite der Schneeräumleiste abgestützte vordere Stützfläche und die orthogonal dazu verlaufende, von der Seite her an der Seitenkante der Schneeräumleiste abgestützte seitliche Stützfläche. Damit die vordere Stützfläche und die seitliche Stützfläche ihre Position relativ zum seitlichen Endbereich der Schneeräumleiste beibehalten, ist eine Schraubverbindung vorgesehen, welche die vordere Stützfläche gegen die Vorderseite der Schneeräumleiste verspannt.A curb deflector of the type mentioned is for example from the EP 2 496 770 B1 or the US 8,782,930 B2 known. In the known Randsteinabweiser the support of the forces acting on the wear edge forces substantially via the supported from the front on the front of the snow removal strip front support surface and orthogonal thereto, supported from the side on the side edge of the snow removal strip lateral support surface. Thus, the front support surface and the lateral support surface maintain their position relative to the lateral end portion of the snow removal strip, a screw connection is provided, which braces the front support surface against the front of the snow removal strip.

Obwohl sich dieser Randsteinabweiser und dessen besonders ausgestaltete Befestigung sich im Prinzip bewährt haben, kommt es im praktischen Einsatz doch bisweilen zu unvorhersehbaren Lockerungen der Schraubverbindung, was im ungünstigsten Fall zum Ablösen des Randsteinabweisers während des Betriebes Schneepfluges führen kann.Although this curb deflector and its specially designed attachment have been proven in principle, it comes in practical use sometimes unpredictable loosening of the screw, which in the worst case can lead to detachment of the curb during snow plow operation.

Nach dem Stand der Technik (vergl. US-PS 5 636 458 ) ist weiterhin ein Randsteinabweiser bekannt, der einen zylindrischen Verschleißkörper aufweist, der entlang einer Längsseite mit einer rechteckigen Befestigungsplatte verschweißt ist, die ihrerseits über eine Schraubverbindung mit dem Endbereich einer am Schneepflugräumschild befestigten Schneeräumleiste verschraubt ist. Dabei stützt sich diese Befestigungsplatte nur an der Vorderseite der Schneeräumleiste, nicht aber an deren Seitenkante ab, sodass die Schraubverbindung durch von der Seite her einwirkende Kräfte ungünstig auf Scherung beansprucht wird. Außerdem wird durch von vorne auf den Verschleißkörper einwirkende Kräfte die Schweißnaht zwischen dem Verschleißkörper und der Befestigungsplatte extrem auf Biegung beansprucht, was zum Bruch der Schweißnaht führen kann.According to the prior art (see. U.S. Patent 5,636,458 Furthermore, a curb deflector is known, which has a cylindrical wear body, which is welded along a longitudinal side with a rectangular mounting plate, which in turn is screwed via a screw connection with the end portion of a snow blade attached to the Schneepflugräumschild. In this case, this mounting plate is based only on the front of the snow removal strip, but not on the side edge, so that the screw is stressed by acting from the side forces unfavorable to shear. In addition, by acting from the front of the wear body forces the weld between the wear body and the mounting plate extremely stressed to bending, which can lead to breakage of the weld.

Ebenfalls nach dem Stand der Technik ist in der US 4,899,472 eine als Randsteinabweiser dienende längliche Schutzplatte bekannt, die im Gegensatz zum Randsteinabweiser der eingangs genannten Art aber zumindest teilweise aus Polymer besteht und im Wesentlichen für den Schutz der äußeren Randbereiche der unteren Verschleißkante der Räumleiste vorgesehen ist.Also according to the state of the art is in the US 4,899,472 a serving as curb deflector elongated protective plate known, but in contrast to the curb deflector of the type mentioned at least partially made of polymer and is provided essentially for the protection of the outer edge regions of the lower wear edge of the scraper.

Diese Schutzplatte ist bis um den Seitenrand der Räumleiste herumgeführt, um die Räumleiste auch gegen Stöße von der Seite her zu schützen. Da etwaige Stöße durch Verformung des nachgiebigen Polymers abgefedert werden, sind hier die Schraubverbindungen zur Befestigung der Schutzplatte an der Räumleiste durch diese Stöße kaum beansprucht. Das Polymer ist allerdings gefährdet durch scharfkantige Hindernisse. Aus diesem Grund ist bei einem Ausführungsbeispiel dieses Standes der Technik die Polymerschicht durch eine dünne Metallschicht abgedeckt. Diese Ausbildung der seitlichen Schutzplatte ist allerdings aufwendig in der Herstellung. Außerdem kann die dünne Metallplatte beim Aufprall auf feststehende Hindernisse verbiegen. Insgesamt diese Schutzvorrichtung für den harten Einsatz im Winterdienst nicht ausreichend robust.This protective plate is led around to the side edge of the scraper to protect the scraper against shocks from the side. Since any shocks are cushioned by deformation of the compliant polymer, here are the screw for mounting the protective plate on the scraper barely stressed by these shocks. However, the polymer is endangered by sharp-edged obstacles. For this reason, in one embodiment of this prior art, the polymer layer is covered by a thin metal layer. However, this formation of the lateral protective plate is expensive to manufacture. In addition, the thin metal plate can bend on impact on fixed obstacles. Overall, this protective device for hard use in winter service not sufficiently robust.

Es ist Aufgabe der Erfindung, den Randsteinabweiser der eingangs genannten Art und dessen Befestigung im Hinblick auf die Haltbarkeit zu verbessern.It is an object of the invention to improve the Randsteinabweiser of the type mentioned and its attachment in terms of durability.

Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe schlägt die Erfindung ausgehend vom Randsteinabweiser der eingangs genannten Art vor, dass die Erstreckung der vorderen Stützfläche in Längsrichtung der Schneeräumleiste um mindestens das 1,2-fache größer ist als der Abstand zwischen der seitlichen Stützfläche und der Verschleißkante des Randsteinabweisers.To solve this problem, the invention proposes, starting from the curb deflector of the type mentioned above, that the extension of the front support surface in the longitudinal direction of the snow removal strip is at least 1.2 times greater than the distance between the lateral support surface and the wear edge of the curb repellent.

Eine zur Schaffung der Erfindung vorgenommene sorgfältige Analyse der im Stand der Technik auftretenden Probleme hat ergeben, dass die Dauerfestigkeit der bekannten Schraubverbindung insbesondere unter den Momenten leidet, die beim Aufprall der Verschleißkante des Randsteinabweiser auf feststehende Hindernisse auftreten. Diese Momente, die im Wesentlichen durch von vorne auf die Verschleißkante des Randsteinabweiser einwirkende Kräfte verursacht werden, wirken vor allem um eine entlang dem Eckbereich zwischen der vorderen Stützfläche und der seitlichen Stützfläche verlaufende Achse und erzeugen durch Hebelwirkung starke, auf die Schrauben der Schraubverbindung einwirkende Zugkräfte. Durch diese übergroßen Zugkräfte können die Schrauben der Schraubverbindung derart gedehnt werden, dass die Vorspannung der Schraubverbindung nachlässt und die Schrauben nachfolgend ungünstig auf Scherung beansprucht werden und abreißen. Durch die erfindungsgemäß vorgeschlagene Vergrößerung der vorderen Stützfläche werden die die Befestigungsvorrichtung ungünstig belastenden Momente mit ausreichend langem Hebelarm abgestützt. Im Ergebnis führt dies zu einer deutlichen Verbesserung der Dauerfestigkeit der Schraubverbindung.A careful analysis of the problems encountered in the prior art for the purpose of the invention has shown that the fatigue strength of the known screw connection suffers, in particular, from the moments which occur on fixed obstacles when the wear edge of the curb stone deflector strikes. These moments, which are essentially caused by forces acting on the wear edge of the curb deflector from above, mainly act around an axis extending along the corner area between the front support surface and the lateral support surface, and generate by leverage strong tensile forces acting on the screws of the screw connection , Due to this excessive tensile forces, the screws of the screw can be stretched so that the bias of the screw decreases and the screws are subsequently unfavorably subjected to shearing and tearing. By the According to the invention proposed enlargement of the front support surface which are unfavorably loaded the mounting device moments with sufficiently long lever arm. As a result, this leads to a significant improvement in the fatigue strength of the screw.

Eine zweckmäßige Weiterbildung der Erfindung sieht vor, dass die Erstreckung der vorderen Stützfläche in Längsrichtung der Schneeräumleiste um mehr als das 1,5-fache größer ist als der Abstand zwischen der seitlichen Stützfläche und der Verschleißkante des Randsteinabweisers. Durch diese Verlängerung des Hebelarmes wird der oben diskutierte Effekt noch weiter verbessert.An expedient development of the invention provides that the extent of the front support surface in the longitudinal direction of the snow removal strip is greater than 1.5 times greater than the distance between the lateral support surface and the wear edge of the curb repellent. This extension of the lever arm further improves the effect discussed above.

Weiterhin ist vorgesehen, dass die Schraubverbindung mindestens eine Schraube aufweist, die den größtmöglichen Abstand von der seitlichen Stützfläche des Randsteinabweisers hat, d.h. im von der seitlichen Stützfläche abgewandten Endbereich der vorderen Stützfläche angeordnet ist.Furthermore, it is provided that the screw connection has at least one screw which has the greatest possible distance from the lateral support surface of the curb deflector, i. is arranged in the side facing away from the lateral support surface end portion of the front support surface.

In Anbetracht der Tatsache, dass die feststehenden Hindernisse meistens am unteren Ende der Verschleißkante des Randsteinabweisers anstoßen, entstehen zusätzlich oft auch große Momente, die um eine entlang dem oberen Randbereich der vorderen Stützfläche verlaufende Achse wirken. Um auch diese Momente mit möglichst großem Hebelarm abfangen zu können, sieht eine besonders bevorzugte Ausführungsform der Erfindung vor, dass die vordere Stützfläche eine dreieckige Grundform hat und einen oberen Stützrand aufweist, der parallel zur Längsrichtung der Schneeräumleiste verläuft, sowie einen seitlichen Stützrand aufweist, der parallel zur Seitenkante der Schneeräumleiste verläuft, und dass die Schraubverbindung mindestens zwei Befestigungsschrauben aufweist, von denen die eine im Bereich des oberen Stützrandes der vorderen Stützfläche mit größtmöglichen Abstand zur seitlichen Stützfläche angeordnet ist, und die andere im Bereich des seitlichen Stützrandes der vorderen Stützfläche mit größtmöglichen Abstand zu deren oberem Stützrand angeordnet ist.In addition, given the fact that the stationary obstacles usually abut the lower edge of the edge of the curb, there are often large moments acting around an axis along the upper edge of the front support surface. In order to be able to intercept these moments with the largest possible lever arm, provides a particularly preferred embodiment of the invention that the front support surface has a triangular basic shape and has an upper support edge which is parallel to the longitudinal direction of the snow removal strip, and has a lateral support edge, the runs parallel to the side edge of the snow removal strip, and that the screw connection has at least two fastening screws, one of which is arranged in the region of the upper support edge of the front support surface with the greatest possible distance from the lateral support surface, and the other in the region of the lateral support edge of the front support surface with the greatest possible Distance to the upper support edge is arranged.

Eine weitere zweckmäßige Weiterbildung der Erfindung sieht vor, dass die im Bereich des oberen Stützrandes der vorderen Stützfläche angeordnete Befestigungsschraube durch den Randsteinabweiser, die Schneeräumleiste und den Schneepflugräumschild verläuft, während die im Bereich des seitlichen Stützrandes der vorderen Stützfläche angeordnete Befestigungsschraube nur durch den Randsteinabweiser und die Schneeräumleiste verläuft. Hierdurch wird die besonders stabile Befestigung des Randsteinabweisers mit einer stabilen Befestigung der Schneeräumleiste am Schneepflugräumschild kombiniert. Insgesamt ergibt sich somit ein Verbund dieser drei Teile, der allen Belastungen optimal standhält.Another expedient development of the invention provides that arranged in the region of the upper support edge of the front support surface fastening screw through the curb, the snow removal strip and the Schneepflugräumschild runs while the arranged in the region of the lateral support edge of the front support surface fastening screw extends only through the curb and the snow removal strip. As a result, the particularly stable attachment of the curb deflector is combined with a stable attachment of the snow removal strip on Schneepflugräumschild. Overall, this results in a composite of these three parts, which optimally withstands all loads.

Weiterhin ist vorgesehen, dass eine im Bereich des oberen Stützrandes der vorderen Stützfläche angeordnete Befestigungsschraube in Bezug auf den seitlichen Stützrand der vorderen Stützfläche dort angeordnet ist, wo sich die einander zugeordneten Schraubenlöcher in dem Schneepflugräumschild und der Schneeräumleiste befinden. Hierdurch ist es in vorteilhafter Weise möglich, die ohnehin in dem Schneepflugräumschild und der Schneeräumleiste vorhandenen Schraubenlöcher zur Befestigung des Randsteinabweisers zu nutzen.Furthermore, it is provided that a fastening screw arranged in the region of the upper support edge of the front support surface is arranged with respect to the lateral support edge of the front support surface where the mutually associated screw holes are located in the snow plow clearing blade and the snow clearing strip. This makes it possible in an advantageous manner to use the existing anyway in the Schneepflugräumschild and the Schneeräumleiste screw holes for fixing the curb deflector.

Für den Fall, dass die Position der Schraubenlöcher in Schneepflugräumschild und Schneeräumleiste bei verschiedenen Schneepflugtypen nicht mit der Position der Schraubenlöcher im Randsteinabweiser übereinstimmt, ist weiterhin vorgesehen, dass das im Bereich des oberen Stützrandes der vorderen Stützfläche des Randsteinabweisers vorgesehene Schraubenloch in Längsrichtung der Schneeräumleiste aufgeweitet ist und durch in dieses Schraubenloch einsetzbare Passstücke an die Lage der zugeordneten Schraubenlöcher im Schneepflugräumschild und der Schneeräumleiste anpassbar ist.In the event that the position of the screw holes in the snow plow blade and snow clearing bar does not match the position of the screw holes in the curb deflector, it is further contemplated that the bolt hole provided in the region of the upper support edge of the front support surface of the curb deflector is widened in the longitudinal direction of the snow plow and can be adapted to the position of the associated screw holes in the snow plow blade and the snow removal strip by insertable into this screw hole fittings.

Um die Köpfe der Befestigungsschrauben der Schraubverbindung gegen Verschleiß zu schützen, ist weiterhin vorgesehen, dass die Köpfe der Befestigungsschrauben der Schraubverbindung in der Oberfläche des Randsteinabweisers versenkt angeordnet sind.In order to protect the heads of the fastening screws of the screw against wear, it is further provided that the heads of the fastening screws of the screw are sunk in the surface of the curb.

In der Zeichnung sind die Hauptbestandteile wie folgt bezeichnet:

  • Der Schneepflugräumschild mit dem Bezugszeichen 1,
  • eine an dessen Unterkante auswechselbar befestigten Schneeräumleiste mit dem Bezugszeichen 2,
  • ein ebenfalls auswechselbar befestigter Randsteinabweiser mit dem Bezugszeichen 3 , mit einer Verschleißkante 3a, einer seitlichen Stützfläche 3b und einer vorderen Stützfläche 3c, und
  • Befestigungsschrauben für den Randsteinabweiser 3 mit den Bezugszeichen 4 und 5.
In the drawing, the main components are designated as follows:
  • The snow plow blade with the reference numeral 1,
  • a snow removal strip with the reference numeral 2 replaceably attached to the lower edge thereof;
  • a likewise replaceably mounted curb with the reference numeral 3, with a wear edge 3a, a lateral support surface 3b and a front support surface 3c, and
  • Fixing screws for the curb deflector 3 with the reference numerals 4 and 5.

Die Randsteinabweiser 3 gemäß der Erfindung sind einteilig ausgebildet und bestehen beispielsweise aus besonders verschleißfestem Hartguss. Sie haben etwa das Aussehen eines Boxhandschuhs, der den seitlichen Randbereich des Schneepflugräumschildes 1 und der daran befestigten Schneeräumleiste 2 umgreift. Außen haben die Randsteinabweiser 3 eine Verschleißkante 3a mit rund oder polygonal abgerundeter Kontur. Innen haben sie demgegenüber eine rechtwinklige Ausnehmung, die eine seitliche Stützfläche 3b aufweist, welche von der Seite her am Ende der Schneeräumleiste 2 anliegt, und eine vordere Stützfläche 3c aufweist, welche von vorne an der Schneeräumleiste 2 anliegt. Dabei wird die von vorne an der Schneeräumleiste 2 anliegende vordere Stützfläche 3c des Randsteinabweisers 3 mithilfe von Befestigungsschrauben 4 und 5 gegen die Vorderseite der Schneeräumleiste 2 verspannt und hält hierdurch den Randsteinabweiser 3 und dessen Stützflächen 3b und 3c in Position.The curb deflector 3 according to the invention are integrally formed and consist for example of particularly wear-resistant chilled cast iron. They have the appearance of a boxing glove, which surrounds the lateral edge region of the Schneepflugräumschildes 1 and the attached thereto Schneeräumleiste 2. Externally, the curb deflectors 3 have a wear edge 3a with a round or polygonal rounded contour. Inside they have in contrast a rectangular recess, which has a lateral support surface 3b, which rests from the side at the end of the snow removal strip 2, and has a front support surface 3c, which rests against the front of the snow removal strip 2. In this case, the front of the snow removal strip 2 fitting front support surface 3c of Curb 3 is clamped by means of fastening screws 4 and 5 against the front of the snow removal strip 2 and thereby holds the curb 3 and its support surfaces 3b and 3c in position.

Bei den beiden Ausführungsformen gemäß den Figuren 1-6 und 7-12 hat die vordere Stützfläche 3c des Randsteinabweisers 3 eine dreieckige Grundform mit einem oberen Stützrand, der parallel zur Längserstreckung der Schneeräumleiste 2 verläuft, und einen seitlich Stützrand der parallel zur Seitenkante der Schneeräumleiste 2 verläuft. Erfindungsgemäß ist die Erstreckung der vorderen Stützfläche 3c um mindestens das 1,2-fache, vorzugsweise um mindestens das 1,5-fache größer, als der Abstand zwischen der seitlichen Stützfläche 3b und der Verschleißkante 3a des Randsteinabweisers 3.In the two embodiments according to the Figures 1-6 and 7-12 the front support surface 3 c of the curb 3 has a triangular basic shape with an upper support edge, which runs parallel to the longitudinal extent of the snow removal strip 2, and a laterally supporting edge which runs parallel to the side edge of the snow removal strip 2. According to the invention, the extent of the front support surface 3c is at least 1.2 times, preferably at least 1.5 times, greater than the distance between the lateral support surface 3b and the wear edge 3a of the curb deflector 3.

Erfindungsgemäß sind weiterhin die die vordere Stützfläche 3c des Randsteinabweisers 3 gegen die Schneeräumleiste 2 verspannenden Befestigungsschrauben 4 und 5 der Schraubverbindung in spezieller Weise in Bezug auf die oben erläuterten Stützränder der vorderen Stützfläche 3c des Randsteinabweisers 3 angeordnet. Und zwar ist die Befestigungsschraube 4 im Bereich des oberen Stützrandes der vorderen Stützfläche 3c mit größtmöglichem Abstand zur seitlichen Stützfläche 3b angeordnet, während die Befestigungsschraube 5 im Bereich des seitlichen Stützrandes der vorderen Stützfläche 3c mit größtmöglichem Abstand zu deren oberen Stützrand angeordnet.According to the invention, the fastening screws 4 and 5 of the screw connection which brace the front support surface 3c of the curb block 3 against the snow removal strip 2 are furthermore arranged in a special way with respect to the support edges of the front support surface 3c of the curb block 3 explained above. Namely, the fixing screw 4 in the region of the upper support edge of the front support surface 3c is arranged as far as possible from the lateral support surface 3b, while the fixing screw 5 in the region of the lateral support edge of the front support surface 3c arranged as far as possible to the upper support edge.

Das bedeutet im Hinblick auf die Befestigungsschraube 4 dass diese in dem von der seitlichen Stützfläche 3b abgewandten Endbereich der vorderen Stützfläche 3c angeordnet ist.This means, with regard to the fastening screw 4, that it is arranged in the end region of the front support surface 3c facing away from the lateral support surface 3b.

Bei der Befestigungsschraube 5 ist der Abstand vom oberen Stützrand der vorderen Stützfläche 3c natürlich nur so groß, dass die Befestigungsschraube 5 bei Verschleiß von Schneeräumleiste 2 und Randsteinabweiser 3 nicht in deren Verschleißbereich gerät. Die im Bereich des seitlichen Stützrandes der vorderen Stützfläche 3c angeordnete Befestigungsschraube 5 hat also einen möglichst großen Abstand vom oberen Stützrand der vorderen Stützfläche 3c, ist aber oberhalb des Verschleißbereiches von Schneeräumleiste 2 und Randsteinabweiser 3 angeordnet.In the fastening screw 5, the distance from the upper support edge of the front support surface 3c, of course, only so large that the mounting screw 5 does not wear in the wear area of snow removal strip 2 and curb 3. The fastening screw 5 arranged in the region of the lateral support edge of the front support surface 3c therefore has the largest possible distance from the upper support edge of the front support surface 3c, but is arranged above the wear region of the snow removal strip 2 and curb deflector 3.

Im Ergebnis liegen die beiden Befestigungsschrauben 4 und 5 bei den Ausführungsbeispielen der Figuren 1-7 und 8-12 also nicht horizontal nebeneinander auf einer Linie parallel zur Längserstreckung der Schneeräumleiste 2, sondern in einer Linie, die geneigt zur Längserstreckung der Schneeräumleiste 2 verläuft. Erreicht wird hierdurch, dass alle auf den Randsteinabweiser einwirkenden Momente jeweils über verhältnismäßig lange Hebelarme abgestützt werden, wodurch die Befestigungsschrauben 4 und 5 weniger auf Zug beansprucht werden.As a result, the two mounting screws 4 and 5 are in the embodiments of Figures 1-7 and 8-12 ie not horizontally next to each other on a line parallel to the longitudinal extent of the snow removal strip 2, but in a line which is inclined to the longitudinal extent of the snow removal strip 2. This achieves this by virtue of the fact that all torques acting on the curb deflector are respectively supported by relatively long lever arms, as a result of which the fastening screws 4 and 5 are subjected to less tension.

Wie anhand der Zeichnung weiterhin zu sehen ist, verläuft die im Bereich des oberen Stützrandes der vorderen Stützfläche 3c angeordnete Befestigungsschraube 4 jeweils durch den Randsteinabweiser 3, die Schneeräumleiste 2 und den Schneepflugräumschild 1, während die im Bereich des seitlichen Stützrandes der vorderen Stützfläche 3c angeordnete Befestigungsschraube 5 nur durch den Randsteinabweiser 3 und die Schneeräumleiste 2 verläuft. Die in der Zeichnung weiterhin dargestellte Befestigungsschraube 6 dient lediglich zur Festlegung der Schneeräumleiste 2 am Schneepflugräumschild 1, wie im Stand der Technik üblich.As can also be seen from the drawing, the arranged in the region of the upper support edge of the front support surface 3 c runs Fixing screw 4 each by the curb 3, the snow removal strip 2 and the Schneepflugräumschild 1, while arranged in the region of the lateral support edge of the front support surface 3c fastening screw 5 extends only through the curb 3 and the snow removal strip 2. The fastening screw 6, which is furthermore shown in the drawing, merely serves to define the snow removing strip 2 on the snow plow blade 1, as usual in the prior art.

Beim Ausführungsbeispiel der Figuren 1-7 ist die Schneeräumleiste 2 als einfache Rechteckschiene aus verschleißfestem Stahl ausgebildet. Hier kann deshalb die Befestigungsschraube 5 auf einfache Weise mithilfe einer Schraubenmutter 5a fixiert werden, die von hinten auf die Befestigungsschraube 5 aufgeschraubt wird (vergleiche Figur 5).In the embodiment of Figures 1-7 the snow removal strip 2 is designed as a simple rectangular rail made of wear-resistant steel. Here, therefore, the fixing screw 5 can be fixed in a simple manner by means of a nut 5a, which is screwed from behind onto the fastening screw 5 (see FIG. 5 ).

Beim Ausführungsbeispiel der Figuren 7-12 ist die Schneeräumleiste 2 demgegenüber als handelsübliche Stahl-Gummi-Stahl-Sandwichleiste ausgebildet. Hier muss dafür gesorgt werden, dass die Befestigungsschraube 5 nur an der vorne liegenden Stahlplatte der Sandwichleiste abgestützt wird, um zu verhindern, dass die Federwirkung des Gummi ist die Festigkeit der Schraubverbindung beeinträchtigt. Hierzu ist in die Sandwich-Leiste ein Füllstück 5b eingesetzt, welches sich von hinten an die vordere Stahlplatte der Sandwich-Schneeräumleiste abstützt. Zu den Einzelheiten dieser Befestigung wird auf die ältere, aber nicht vorveröffentlichte deutsche Patentanmeldung Nr. 10 2012 025 114.9 der Anmelderin verwiesen.In the embodiment of Figures 7-12 is the snow removal strip 2 in contrast formed as a commercial steel-rubber-steel sandwich strip. Here it must be ensured that the fastening screw 5 is supported only on the front steel plate of the sandwich strip, in order to prevent the spring effect of the rubber is impaired the strength of the screw connection. For this purpose, a filler 5b is used in the sandwich bar, which is supported from behind to the front steel plate of the sandwich snow removal bar. For details of this attachment is on the older, but not pre-published German Patent Application No. 10 2012 025 114.9 referred to the applicant.

Beim Ausführungsbeispiel der Figuren 13 und 14 hat die vordere Stützfläche 3c des Randsteinabweisers 3 in etwa die Form eines schmalen Rechtecks. Dementsprechend sind hier die beiden Befestigungsschrauben 4 und 5 entlang einer Linie angeordnet, die etwa parallel zur Längserstreckung der Schneeräumleiste 2 verläuft. Auch hier ist erfindungsgemäß die Längserstreckung der vorderen Stützfläche 3c in Längsrichtung der Schneeräumleiste 2 um mindestens das 1,2-fache, vorzugsweise um mindestens das 1,5-fache größer als der Abstand zwischen der seitlichen Stützfläche 3b und der Verschleißkante 3a des Randsteinabweisers 3. Zugleich weist auch hier die Schraubverbindung eine Schraube 4 auf, die auch hier in größtmöglichem Abstand von der seitlichen Stützfläche 3b des Randsteinabweisers 3 angeordnet ist. Auch hier werden also die beim Auftreffen der Verschleißkante 3a auf ein feststehendes Hindernis auf den Randsteinabweiser ausgeübten Momente mit langem Hebelarm abgestützt.In the embodiment of FIGS. 13 and 14 The front support surface 3c of the curb deflector 3 has approximately the shape of a narrow rectangle. Accordingly, here the two fastening screws 4 and 5 are arranged along a line which runs approximately parallel to the longitudinal extent of the snow removal strip 2. Again, according to the invention, the longitudinal extent of the front support surface 3c in the longitudinal direction of the snow removal strip 2 by at least 1.2 times, preferably at least 1.5 times greater than the distance between the lateral support surface 3b and the wear edge 3a of the curb 3. At the same time, also here the screw on a screw 4, which also in here the greatest possible distance from the lateral support surface 3b of the Curb 3 is arranged. Here too, therefore, the moments exerted on the curb stone with a long lever arm are applied when the wear edge 3a impinges on a stationary obstacle.

Während beim Ausführungsbeispiel der Figuren 13 und 14 die Schneeräumleiste 2 als einfache, flache Rechteckschiene ausgebildet ist, die - wie beim Stand der Technik üblich - mit einfachen Befestigungsschrauben 6 an der Unterkante des Schneepflugräumschild des 1 angeschraubt ist, ist beim Ausführungsbeispiel der Figuren 15 und 16 die Schneeräumleiste 2 - ähnlich wie beim Ausführungsbeispiel der Figuren 7-12 - als handelsübliche Stahl-Gummi-Stahl-Sandwichleiste ausgebildet. Dementsprechend ist auch hier der Randsteinabweiser 3 so an der Schneeräumleiste 2 befestigt, wie oben anhand der Figuren 7-12 erläutert.While in the embodiment of FIGS. 13 and 14 the snow removal strip 2 is formed as a simple, flat rectangular rail, which - as usual in the prior art - is screwed with simple fastening screws 6 at the lower edge of the Schneepflugräumschild 1, is in the embodiment of FIGS. 15 and 16 the snow removal strip 2 - similar to the embodiment of the Figures 7-12 - Designed as a commercial steel-rubber-steel sandwich strip. Accordingly, here is the curb 3 is attached to the snow removal strip 2, as above with reference to the Figures 7-12 explained.

Falls die Anordnung der vorhandenen Schraubenlöcher im Schneepflugräumschild 1 und der Schneeräumleiste 2 an verschiedenen Schneepflugtypen nicht mit der Anordnung des Schraubenloches für die Befestigungsschraube 4 im Randsteinabweiser 3 übereinstimmt, ist weiterhin vorgesehen, dass das Schraubenloch für die Befestigungsschraube 4 im Randsteinabweiser 3 in Längsrichtung der Schneeräumleiste 2 aufgeweitet ist und durch in dieses aufgeweitet Schraubenloch einsetzbare Passstücke an die Lage der zugeordneten Schraubenlöcher im Schneepflugräumschild 1 Schneepfluges oder der Schneeräumleiste 2 anpassbar ist. Diese Anpassungsmaßnahme ist in der Zeichnung nicht im Detail dargestellt.If the arrangement of the existing screw holes in the snow plow blade 1 and the snow plow 2 does not match the arrangement of the screw hole for the fastening screw 4 in the cinder block 3, it is further provided that the screw hole for the fastening screw 4 in the curb stone 3 in the longitudinal direction of the snow removal strip. 2 is widened and can be adapted to the position of the associated screw holes in the Schneepflugräumschild 1 snow plow or the snow removal strip 2 by insertable in this expanded screw hole fittings. This adaptation measure is not shown in detail in the drawing.
