Abstract
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.
