Facing Ice and Snow, Let's Have a Look at the "Snow-Cooling Artifacts" across Nanjing

As snowstorms continued to increase, snow-sweeping work was also aggravated. In order to compete with Blizzard speed, Lukou Street in Jiangning District of Nanjing City used a number of “snow-sweeping artifacts”.

Grader: Flat squeaks, snow is lighter

A grader is a type of road machinery, and its working principle is to use a scraper to level the ground.

In this year's work on snow control, the Lukou Street Urban Management Department used its flexible and accurate movements, convenient operation, and high precision in the leveling of the site, opening it into snow-packed town streets. The urban management department also improved the grader and added special rubber strips to the blade to avoid machine wear on the road surface and ensure the speed and quality of cleaning.

Lukou Street used this machine as a tool for snow-sweeping for the first time. The efficiency of the motor grader was very high. It usually takes an hour or two to clear the snow. The grader only needs ten minutes to complete the task and work back and forth. On several occasions, stubborn ice was quickly eradicated.

Forest Fire Extinguisher: Self-made snow blower, high efficiency in removing snow

The forest fire extinguisher is a powerful blower used in forest fires to control the direction of fire with high wind speed and high wind speed.

Lukou Street’s agricultural department organized a 7-person squad, flexibly used a hair dryer for forest fire prevention, and turned it into a “snow blower” to remove snow from the sidewalks, bus stops, and sheds of farmers’ houses. The human-computer cooperation with the tacit agreement cleared a total of six sidewalks and seven bus stops within an hour. They have strong power and are very effective in blowing thin ice on the roads. Thin ice and snow are easily blown away.
