Patent attributes
A mailbox protection device is provided. The device may include an angular deflection surface. The angular deflection surface may include a first planar deflection panel and a second planar deflection panel contiguous along a linear vertex. The linear vertex may be directed toward, for example, oncoming traffic to deflect impacting snow away from a mailbox. The impacting snow may come from passing snowplows, for instance. The device may also include a receiving channel. The receiving channel can be defined in the linear vertex extending through the device from an opening at a top end of the linear vertex to an opening at a bottom end of the linear vertex. The receiving channel may receivably cooperate with a known fence post to anchor the device in the ground.
