  • Patent number: 4125950
    Abstract: A device adapted to be attached to a vehicle for plowing snow on gravel covered roads while minimizing loss of gravel caused by plowing which employs a horizontally elongated blade having a concave plowing front surface and a convex rear surface.A horizontal foot is disposed below the blade and is adapted slidably to rest on the top of a gravel road covering. A mechanism secures said foot to said blade in such manner that the bottom edge of the blade is disposed above the foot. The mechanism is manually adjustable to adjust the vertical separation between the bottom edge of the blade and the bottom surface of the foot to a distance at which the gravel will not be removed and the snow can be suitably plowed when the device is used on a vehicle.
