  • Publication number: 20090320332
    Abstract: The present invention lies in the field of clearing bars (3) for the clearing blade (1) of a snow plough, which clearing bars are defined at least partially in cross section by a curved contour (10). They are based on the object of avoiding undesirable swirling of snow within the clearing blade (1). The invention is based on the finding that the snow is swirled on parts (7) of the fastening means (5) for fastening the clearing bar (3) to the clearing blade (1). To solve this problem, a design of the contour (10) that is optimized dynamically in terms of flow is described.
