Hello,
I have a patent pending design for changing the angle of a snow blade by tilting the FEL. You can see it in the supplied link
I am looking for feedback as I look to market the design.
Target customer:
1) Has an FEL that has a float function for the arms
2) Does not have auxiliary hydraulics plumbed to the front of the tractor, maybe no auxiliary hydraulics at all.
3) Wants a simple way to connect the FEL to a plow
4) Wants control over the angle of the plow from the driver's seat without adding hydraulics
This design lets you sit on the tractor and utilize the tilt function of your FEL to change the angle of the snow blade. To make it work the loader has to be in float mode which is why the rig has a tail wheel.
There are a couple of limitations to the implementation that I would like to hear your opinions on:
1) The angle adjustment can only be performed while the tractor is stopped.
2) Transitions possible are: Left to right, right to left, right to center, center to right. You can't go from left to center nor center to left.
This prototype, clearly, is based on a Land Pride quick attach plow. My design will also support a bucket clamp approach.
Regards,
Steven
