for snow removal from roads used by different snow-clearing equipment. The efficiency of its use is determined by the road conditions. This is especially true for snow plows in settlements with elements of arrangement of road (curbs, sidewalks, road barriers, stopping points). In these circumstances widespread machine dumps. The ability to develop, manufacture and operation of dumps of snow plows on small and medium-sized enterprises defines their widespread use and a variety of designs. Promising to modernize the necessary conditions under heaps of snow removal from roads and sidewalks. The decision in this case take into account the comprehensive approach, comprising as an account of the influence of external factors - the operating conditions of the machine, and internal changes in the parameters of the machine. Analysis of the problem has allowed to hypothesize on the design of blade snow removal machines. In order to develop a scheme blade methodology for the study and design of experiments, the basic factors of influence on the resistance. The design blade for snowplows and virtual model to assess performance.

The article summarizes the purification schemes of roads from snow and used in this machine. Depending on the various possible ways and means of snow removal. In the majority of methods used machines with blade. The analysis of dumps of snow plows and the tendencies of development of the working bodies. Promising to modernize dumps under the conditions necessary snow removal from roads and sidewalks, stopping pockets that are height above the roads. The decision in this case take into account the general trends of development of designs dumps. The most important of which is to increase the mobility of the blade and its division into elements. The use of hydraulic drive allows to simplify the structure of the working body of a snowplow. The effect of the implementation of research results is determined by reducing the number of passes and the number of snow plows used machinery

An analysis of snowplows in urban environments. Determined that the efficiency of snow removal from roads, sidewalks areas affected humps (bumps), borders, etc. In line with this analysis of structures working bodies (dumps), used in Russia and abroad, as well as analysis of patents. In accordance with the foregoing, all decisions on the management of blade can be divided: extra lever systems; modernization of hydraulic drive; use microprocessors; the combination of these approaches. Obviously, the use of processor technology is justified for high-tech machines, as a consequence has disadvantages in price, qualification of operators and maintenance personnel. For the modernization of existing equipment, at the moment, it is advisable to use the combined system using the lever and hydraulic drive systems. It is necessary to take into account the energy-saving technologies.
