, S P E C I F I C P~ T I O N

OBJECT OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a polishiny machine that is especially designed to polish floors, and in particular to polish the edges or marginal areas thereof, 1 10 which machine can also be used for polishing or cleaning ¦ ~ skirting boards and in any other like operation :~ whatsoever.

BA~KGROUND OF THE IP;~VENTION

Machines that are normally used for polishing floors 'I are known to have a vertical output shaft ending in an abrasive element or polishing element as such ac~ing upon the horizontal plane, that is the floor, with a turning movement.
~,~
;, This type of machines, albeit duly capable of executing their polishing function on most of the floor surface are primarily problematic in that they are unable ; 25 to adequately reach the edges thereof, viz. the areas .. closest to the walls, which means that such marginal areas are left with a sharp and considerable unevenness that is on the one hand unsightly and on the other impairs the placement of certain furniture, for instance bookshelves or other elements fitted to the walls.

Conventional polishing machines are moreover only capable of working on the floor and may not he used for cleaning skirting boards as well.
~' DESCRIPTION OF ~HE INVENTION
~`1 ~' -` 23L2~397 The polishing machine subject of the invention is '~ designed to be a complement to any conventional floor polishing machine, such that once the latter has ~ completed its task the edges of the floor may be suitably`~ 5 levelled in order to achieve an optimal surface homogenisation, and at the same time or complementarily ~ clean the skirting boards.

j More specifically and in order to achieve the above the polishing machine subject hereof comprises a small I - rolling platform having arms with a double bend for the establishment of wheels in order for the platform as such l to be positioned as closely as possible to the floor, which platform supports a frame holding a driving element through the respective support, which drive shall by means of an adequate transmission provide a horizontal shaft relatively close to the rolling platform with movement, which shaft has its free end outside the frame I fitted with a pollshing head capable of working radially on the floor edges, causing the same to have a perfect finish, and of working axially or frontally on the ~3 skirting boards, to clean the same.

,, .
,,¦ In accordance with another characteristic of the !'1 25 invention the said support for the operative elements is associated to the frame through height adjustment spindles that allow the position of the operative group and in particular the distance of the polishing shaft from the floor to be changed in order to adjust the same to the effective tool radius. In addition the polishing head can also be laterally displaced.
", More specifically, and in accordance with another ¦ characteristic of the invention, the tool shaft receives a movement from the driving shaft through a belt having ~ a mobile tensor that allows the spacing between the i~ driving shaft and the tool shaft to be absorbed, the ,~,.
,,,, ,~c ,`1 --` 2~2~3~7 latter, viz. the tool shaft, belng mounted upon cross guides and receiving movement by means of a suitable transmission from a small auxiliary motor that can be ? operated at will separately from the main motor.
~, 5 It has also been provided that the output shaft for :~ the tool be divided into two parts that are telescopically coupled to each other inserting a spring working under compression in order for this mechanism to allow the degree of pressure at which the machine works frontally on the sklrting boards to be adjusted at will, and at the same time afford a retractable effects for the tool when it comes across any obstacle, preventing the same from being damaged.
It has also been provided for the shaft at output of the motor to be coupled with a transmission ending in a power supply to which a flexible transmission element of considerable length can be optionally and voluntarily coupled, ending in a head that is manually held, having a gripping device for the attachment of several supplementary tools, which allows special tasks to be executed in particular circumstances, for instance : sanding or polishing floors and skirting boards behind or beneath heaters, or other places that are difficult to ~t' reach, almost impossible for a polishing machine, using . the main tool. It has also been provided that this transmission element shall have its own switch to turn on the main motor in the machine, so that it can be switched on without having to go near the same.
',':~ !
! In accordance with another characteristic of the ~ invention, the polishing machine, that can be hauled i~; directly, using a handle located on the bodywork, has an auxiliary detachable arm that allows the same to be moved in a more comfortable position, namely standing up, the l free end of the said arm being fitted with the ;
2~2s~397 appropriate double grip, i.e. for both hands, moreover ! having a small head that also carries controls for the `! driving elements of the machine, in particular in respect of both the main motor acting on the tool and the auxiliary motor transversely moving the said tool.

, .
Going back to the position of the tool shaft, it has moreover been provided that instead of the said shaft 1 being transversely dlsplaceable, the same be fixed in i3 lo position, which hence considerably simplifies the structure, albeit in a side or off-centre position, in order for the tool to project sufficiently from the frame or bodywork of the machine to one side, to be able to ~, reach into a corner located in such area. In addition the ;~ 15 drive shaEt shall have to project at the other end of the ~1 machine and the latter end must be fitted with another -~ operative end, so that in one position of the machine, it may be easy to reach into a corner at the right hand end of a wall, whereas inverting the position it will be just as easy to reach the other corner.
, ; I Nevertheless and because this solution requires a frequent positional change of the tool, that may be ~j~ inconvenient, an intermediate solution has been provided wherein the shaft is still transversely displaceable but instead of being so motorised, manually. To this end the tool shaft and in particular the body containing the same ~ is assembled upon a carriage that is transversely !~ displaceable along guides that are operatively ~ 30 established at the base of the machine, which carriage ....
I can be operated by means of a lever mounted to rotate on the motor support or any other suitable fixed element of the machine, acting at one of its ends on the body containing the tool-support shaft and which end projects ~ 35 to the outside as an operating handle, the said l~ver il having a locking mechanism stabilising the same, and that hence also stabilises the tool-support shaft, at the two '~1 s ~ 3 9 7 end working positions provided therefor, change from one position to another being extremely quick and easy.

Finally and in accordance with another characteristic of the invention, an extremely quick system of changing the tool is provided, so that whilst two tools may be used simultaneously coupled to both ends of the drlve shaft it will also be possible to use one only, so that in the operation for positional reversal of the machine it is also simple to change tools.

In this sense, and more specifically, the drive ¦ shaft ends in a plate, having sev~ral slotted holes for -~ the b~yonet coupling of a number of rods with a head in turn associated to the tool, the said holes have end expansions for the passage of the said heads located facing the normal direction of rotation of the shaft, in order for there to be a natural tendency for coupling, an internal plate working wlth this plate, fitted with a spring and acting as a stabilising or braking means tending to hold the tool coupled to the shaft.

PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION
,, ,,, v The figures show that the polishing machine subject hereof is structured with a rolling platform (1) having arms (2) on opposite sides that bend upwards first and then outwards, such that the free end of each such arm (2) is fitted with a wheel (3), preferably of the free-~i moving kind, that is largely fitted in the step defined in the respective arm, whereby the platform as such (1) stays very close to the floor (4) as shown in particular , in figure (2).
~ ...
~j, The said rolling platform (1) is fitted with a frame }ii (5) which holds inside the operating elements of the ~,~ 30 machine, in particular a motor (6~ with characteristics suited to provide ~he polishing tool with the appropriate turning speed, which motor (6) is mounted upon a support (7) so that the said motor uses the highest part of the frame (5), its drive shaft ending in a pulley (8) through which, working with a belt (9), movement is transmitted ~ to the other lower pulley (10) duly keyed to the drive i;'f' shaft (11) of the machine, which projects outside the ~' ',':, ,,,,~

2~2~397 frame (5) and ends in the appropriate polishing head (12) to which the polishing tool will in turn be attached.
s -~! The said support (7) for the operative machine unit ~' 5 is mounted upon the frame (5) and can be vertically adjusted, in particular with the assis~ance of spindles ~¦ (13) diagrammatically shown in the figures, driven from outside the said frame (5) by means of the respective control elements, that are not shown, so that through ~ 10 such spindles (13) the driving unit as a whole and hence ¦ the polishiny head (12) can rise or drop until it reaches ;~ the best position in respect of the floor (4) for the i machine to perform its polishing function, in particular -l with the perimetric area of the said polishing tool j 15 working on the floor. As aforesaid, the tool associated -~ to the polishing head (12) can however axially act upon a skirting board to clean the same and the drive shaft , (11) may not only be adjusted as to height, as aforesaid, but as to its side position.
.~ In the embodiment shown in figures 3 to 7, starting with the same basic structure, i.e. the same base platform (1) having wheels (3) of little diameter barely ,~ separating the same from the floor, upon which a support ~,~ 25 (5) is placed for the electric drive motor (6) of ,~!j, adjustable height through vertical whee.ls (13), the plate (12) for attachment of the tool (14) is fitted to an ; axial bush (15) that is telescopically coupled on the ¦ said drive shaft (11), a spring (16) being fitted betweenboth elements tending to project the said plate (13) outwards, towards a limiting position defined by a screw ¦ (17) playing within a slot (18) in the ~ush (15) and acting as a key-slot allowing the telescopic elongation ~33 of the tool shaft, holding the two sectors making up such ~ 35 shaft still angularly.

; The machine, in addition to the main motor (6), has il~
!~;

` 2~2~397 g a small auxiliary motor (19) the output shaft (20) of which has a spindle (21) through which movement is transmitted to a ring (22) the shaft of which in turn comprises a transverse spindle (23) in which a nut or threaded bush (24) plays coupled to a skid (25) that can move transversely along guides (26) and that is in turn the support for the tool (14) shaft (ll), transmitting a horizontal displacement movement to such shaft and hence to the tool as the operator shall see fit.
., 10 This transverse displacement of the tool (14) shaft (ll) clearly means that the pulley (lo) coupled to the said shaft (11) can be variably spaced from the pulley 9) coupled to the main motor (6) output shaft, to which ¦ 15 end it is provided that the belt (9) transmitting movement be moreover fitted with a tension pulley (27), in turn associated to a skid (28), that can move :'!. transversely and is fitted with a spring (29), so that this spring (29) tends to hold the auxiliary pulley (27) taught or pressed against the drive belt (9) and, hence, transmission is ensured in any relative position between the main motor (6) and the tool shaft (11), that ls laterally displaceable.

It has moreover been provided that the main motor ~; (6) shaft be fitted with an extension (30), ending in a power supply (30') that can be fitted with bearings (31), to which a flexible transmission element (32) can be , coupled, comprising a fixed casing inside which a 30 transmission cable ending in a small clip (33) plays, which plays within a head (34) held manually that caps ~;~ the said transmission element, which clip can be fitted `I with a small tool to execute tasks in places that are difficult to reach, this transmission element having a '.6l 35 considerable length ensuring for the same a wide scope ;~ for operations. In order to expedite handling of the 1l machine in this sense, the said flexible transmission ; :~
' 1 "1 . :
','',1 i;J
, ..

; 2~397 :' 10 ' element (32) is fitted with an electric cable (35) ending., in an operating push-button or switch (36) through which :~ the main motor (6) is controlled, which cable (35) is ' capped at its other end with a connector (37) that i-ian be ~:l 5 plugged to its matching connector duly established in the machine hodywork (38).
,~
. As shown in figure 6, the said bodywork (38) is, in addition to having a handle for the machine to be handled directly, fitted with a conslderably long arm (39) that can be removably coupled to such bodywork in order that it can be used at will, the same ending in a double grip (~0) to make it easier to hold by hand, a small head (41) being fitted at the said grip (40) in which a push~button (42) is located to drive the main motor (4), fitted with the respective signalling pilot (~3) and a switch (44) to ~:
;~ turn on the auxiliary motor in either direction, the said head (41) being moreover related to the machine through !~ another cable or electric conductor (45), ending in the relevant connector (46) that can be plugged into the matching connector (47) operatively fitted in the :. bodywork (38) of the machine, which shall moreover have the respective mains lead and other necessary fittings for the said motors such as condensers, fuses and so i,i forth.
~i In accordance with a different embodiment, as shown ~ in figures 8 to 12, to replace the system for transverse movement of the driving shaft (11) referred to hereinbefore, the said shaft (11) has been provided to ! ! have a considerably side or off-centre position, as shown ~ in particular in figure 8, and for both ends of this .~ shaft (11) to simultaneously project from the bodywork t!/i~ (38) of the machine, ending in two plates or operative . 35 heads (12-12').
,ij i~ The tool (14) can thus have absolute access to any ,1~'.'' . ,~
''`1 1 ~ 2:~2~7 corner, since it projects from the side of the machine bodywork (38) using either end of the shaft (11), depending on whether the corner is to the right or to the left, as can be inferred by observing figure 9, where the sald tool is shown with a broken line.
`1 , j To complement the solution shown in figures 8 and 9 ¦ or any of the previous two versions of the machine, it has also been provided that each plate or head (12) have several arched wide or slotted holes (48) with arcuation ¦ centre over the very shaft (11) and with expansions (48') at either end, through which respective heads or ~¦ expansions (49) of the same number of rods (50) stiffened to the core (51) of the brush or tool (14) can be coupled in such holes (48), such rods (50) being numerically and positionally coincldent with the holes (48) in order that the tool (14) may be fixed to the plate (15) by quick :,1 "bayonet" type coupling that tends to be stabilised by the direction of rotation of the tool itself. It is further provided that within each head (12) another plate (52) will be provided, moving axially, and fitted with a spring (53), permanently tending to be projected against the head (49) of the rods (5), acting as a braking element for the latter, or in other words as a stabilising means in coupling the tool to the head.
;,,~ "'~' Returning again to the problem of the tool (14) ~ having access to any corner, this can be solved with the ,~ embodiment shown in figures 12 to 15 in which the tool shaft (11), with its respective pulley (10) receiving the movement through the drive belt (9) is mounted with freedom of rotation through bearings that are not shown, ~¦ within a containing body (54) mounted upon a carriage (55) that can move trans~ersely with the assistance of ~' 35 guides (56~ such that the said carriage (55) is capable ii of taking up two end side positions within the context of ,~ the machine and hence of the tool (14) associated to the . : I
, ' ,, '. ',1 ~ ~ 2~5397 ~ .
. 12 shaft (11) accompanying the said carriage (55) in its ~ transverse displacements.

!'~ These transverse displacements are carried out by l 5 hand with the assis~ance of a lever (57) mounted with the .~ possibility of swinging freely and horizontally through ¦ a shaft (58) upon the support (59) of the motor (6), l which lever (57) converts through its inner end and ;~ through a bolt its own swinging movement into a 10 transverse movement for the body (54). This lever (57) extends to the outside as an operating handle (61) which crosses the machine bodywork through a horizontally wide l slot (62), the said lever (57) moreover having an L-,~ shaped arched expansion (63) the vertical branch of which ~-.15 is provided with two end holes (64) to lock a retractable :l cog (65) that can be operated by hand through a knob (66) ,.~ and through a spring working therewith which tends to '~ project it permanently against the curved and convex ~,i surface of the lever expansion (63), locking itself ~i20 automatically in one of the end holes (64) which define : the two stable positions provided for such lever and '~' hence the two stable positions also provided for the shaft (1) carrying the tool. :;

It only remains to be said that the general appearance of the machine shown in figures 14 and 15 is merely illustrative and the bodywork may vary in ~j accordance with any line of design without this in any gl event affecting the essence of the invention.
