Abstract

See full text

The plowing of streets and roadways in areas with snowy climates is typically done with a labor intensive, manually operated snow removal apparatus mounted on a vehicle designed to push the snow off the roadway. A problem is that there may be areas near the roadway, such as, driveways, mailboxes, crosswalks, cross streets, and fire hydrants that should not be blocked or covered with discharged snow. The present inventions are an apparatus and a method by which the snow removal apparatus can be operated automatically without the need for manual intervention, to avoid throwing discharged snow on areas that would be undesirable to block or cover with snow.
