Abstract: The vehicle snow removal system is a drive-through station for clearing snow, ice, or other debris from a flat surface of a vehicle, such as the vehicle's roof, for example. The vehicle snow removal system includes a pair of vertical supports, each having an upper end and a lower end. The lower ends thereof are adapted for mounting on a support surface. The pair of vertical supports are laterally spaced apart from one another such that the vehicle may drive therebetween. Opposed ends of a horizontal support are mounted on respective upper ends of the vertical supports. At least one blower is mounted substantially centrally on the horizontal support, and the vertical supports each have sufficient height to provide clearance for the roof of the vehicle. The at least one blower may be actuated either automatically or manually to blow accumulated snow from the flat surface of the vehicle.

Abstract: The system for removing snow from vehicles removes snow, ice and other debris from the roof of a vehicle, such as a truck, trailer, van or the like, as the vehicle drives therethrough. The system includes a frame defining an open inner region dimensioned and configured for passage of the vehicle. The frame includes a pair of laterally opposed posts and an upper crossbeam extending between upper ends of the posts. A pair of arms are pivotally attached to the posts, the pair of arms extending orthogonal to the plane of the frame. A pivotally mounted forward crossbar extends between forward ends of the pair of arms. A blade is mounted on the forward crossbar so that the blade removes the snow, ice and other debris from the roof of the vehicle as it passes through the frame.

Abstract: The solar power system includes one or more solar panels removably installed atop the roof or upper surface of a motor vehicle or non-motorized vehicle (e.g., a trailer). In one embodiment, the vehicles (semi-trailers, passenger buses, vans, etc.) are parked in a yard or terminal, and the electrical power produced by the solar panels atop the vehicles is delivered to a fixed local distribution system in the yard or terminal area. The power produced may be used for the normal electrical needs of the operation, and any excess power may be sold to the local municipal electric company or other relatively wide area electrical grid. In another embodiment, the solar panels generate electrical power while the vehicles are traveling, and the electrical power is stored aboard the vehicles until the vehicles reach a destination where the power can be transferred to the fixed local distribution system for use.
