Abstract

A snow plow includes a housing, an auger assembly and a driving assembly. The housing is provided with an opening. The auger assembly is installed in the housing. The driving assembly is installed on an outer side of the housing, and the driving assembly includes a motor and a planetary reducer. A power input end of the planetary reducer is connected with an output shaft of the motor, and a power output end of the planetary reducer is connected with the auger assembly through a transmission structure. The motor and the planetary reducer are integrated in a same outer housing.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
