FRONT MOUNT MAGNETIC SWEEPER APPARATUS
A front mount mechano-hydraulic magnetic sweeper apparatus having a debris collection and retention system. The magnetic sweeper apparatus addresses ferrous debris pickup with ground tracking capabilities ahead of its swept path. The magnetic sweeper apparatus features a large magnet hanging out-front of the vehicle or primary mover, which allows for ferrous debris pickup and retention utilizing complete wrap around technology. Objects as small as paperclips, up to large items like rail spikes and steel axles, are able to be safely retrieved and retained beneath the magnet. Obstructions such as sharp ramps, speedbumps, potholes, small curbs, ruts, and other rough terrain can be traversed without having to sacrifice lifting the magnet which reduces magnetic performance. A quadric cycle chain mechanism allows for magnet clean off and debris storage in a smooth and controlled motion.
