Abstract: A plow blade float attachment for preventing damage to a side deflector on a plow blade. The plow blade float attachment includes an arm member pivotally attached to a deflector member of a plow blade, a contact member attached to the arm member, a guide member attached to the deflector member for slidably receiving a distal portion of the arm member, and a bias member attached between the deflector member and the arm member for applying a downward bias force to the arm member.

Abstract: A plow blade deflector system for reducing the size of windrows thrown to the side of a plow blade. The inventive device includes a first bracket and a second bracket attachable to the upper edge of a plow blade, a pivot structure attached to the brackets, an arm member pivotally attached to the pivot structure, an actuator attached to the plow blade and to a distal end of the arm member, an upper member attached to the arm member, and a deflector member vertically attached to the upper member. The deflector member preferably includes a plurality of brace members extending from the upper member to the deflector member for providing additional support during usage. The deflector member preferably extends at an acute angle with respect to the deflector member so as to be substantially parallel to a curb during usage. The actuator allows the operator of the snowplow to elevate the deflector member during normal usage thereby allowing the snow to be diverted to the side of the snowplow.
