The present pull-type snow blower attachment comprises a housing, a auger and a snow blowing fan arrangement. The housing defines a longitudinally curved surface between two walls. A hitch protrudes away from the surface and is adapted for attachment behind a vehicle. The auger is rotatably secured to the walls of the housing. The auger defines two opposite sections and a middle section therebetween. Each opposite section is equipped with a spiral blade angled towards the middle section, and the middle section is equipped with at least two blades for lifting snow. The snow blowing fan arrangement includes a fan and a chute section above the fan. The fan is between the auger and the hitch. The fan is adapted for receiving snow lifted by the at least two blades of the auger and pushing the snow through the chute section.

A hitch for connecting an implement to a vehicle. The hitch comprises a first frame for attachment to the vehicle and a second frame for attachment to the implement. The hitch further comprises a mechanism for connecting the first frame to the second frame. The connection of the first frame to the second frame provides for connecting the implement to the vehicle when the first frame is attached to the vehicle and the second frame is attached to the implement.

A hitch designed for facilitating the connection of the hitch to the vehicle. The hitch comprises a first frame for attachment to the vehicle and a second frame for attachment to the implement. The first frame includes L-shaped members, and the second frame a pair of complementary linkage members. An inclination of a third extremity of the L-shaped members provides lateral clearance between the lowered first frame with respect to the second frame. When in position, the operator of the tractor raises the first frame by use of a piston, into the second frame, thereby gradually reducing the lateral clearance between the first frame and the second frame and allowing smooth insertion of upper male connectors of the first frame 100 into upper female connectors of the second frame.
A method for safely assembling a snow blower comprising a rotating drum. The method comprises positioning a frame of the snow blower in a position where a front surface of the frame comprising an opening for receiving the rotating drum is facing upwards. The front surface is substantially perpendicular to the ground when the snow blower is operating. The method comprises positioning the rotating drum inside the opening in the front surface of the frame and securing the rotating drum to the frame. The method further comprises securing an impeller to the frame inside the rotating drum and securing an auger to the frame. The method also comprises securing a scraper longitudinally to a lateral side of the front surface of the frame.

Snow blower with a securing mechanism for a rotating drum
A snow blower comprises a frame, an auger, a fan, a hydraulic system, a rotating drum, a securing mechanism and a disengagement mechanism. The auger is rotationally mounted to the frame, and is adapted for collecting snow. The fan is mounted upon the frame, behind the auger, and evacuates the collected snow in the rotating drum. The hydraulic system rotates the rotating drum with respect to the frame. The rotating drum defines a pair of teeth about a circumference thereof. The securing mechanism is affixed to the frame, and includes on one extremity a pair of complementary circular cams, and on a second extremity a pressure mechanism for applying pressure on the pair of complementary circular cams to keep the pair of complementary circular cams engaged. Upon pressure applied by the hydraulic system to rotate the rotating drum, the disengagement mechanism cooperates with the pair of teeth to counteract the pressure applied by the pressure mechanism and disengages the disengagement mechanism from the pair of teeth.
