Abstract:
A roadway clearing device includes a plurality of rotatable members for dislodging material (snow or ice) from a roadway and a conveyer disposed rearward of the rotatable members to collect and laterally discharge material from the roadway. The device may include a plurality of shovel members disposed rearward of the conveyor to divert material from the roadway to the conveyor for lateral discharge. The rotatable members and/or shovel members may be disposed for separate movement from corresponding downward positions to upward positions relative to an interconnected support frame. Spring-loaded, extensible members may be provided to bias the rotatable members and/or shovel members to their corresponding downward positions. The rotatable members and/or shovel members are supportably and pivotably interconnected to a common support frame so as to separately pivot upward relative to the support frame from their respective downward positions, facilitating dislodgement, diversion, collection and discharge of material from a roadway.

Claim (Index 5):
A device as recited in  claim 4 , wherein said device further comprises a frame, and wherein for each rotatable member of said plurality of rotatable members the device further comprises:\n a corresponding support member supportably and pivotably interconnected to the frame, wherein the corresponding axle is supportably interconnected to the support member; and, a corresponding spring-loaded, extensible member supportably and pivotably interconnected to said frame, and pivotably interconnected to said corresponding support member, for biasing the rotatable member to the corresponding downward position.
