Abstract

A street sweeper has floating support apparatus for supporting both a pick-up broom and a pair of laterally and forwardly disposed gutter brushes beneath a sweeper framework and for providing controlled broom and brush pressures on the surface being swept. A ball bushing and vertical shaft provide gutter brush suspension and spherical bearings and support arms provide pick-up room suspen­ sion. The gutter brushes and pick-up broom are directly dri­ ven by hydraulic motors mounted on their respective sus­ pension structures. Debris is directed inwardly on the swept surface by the gutter brushes toward the path of the pick-up broom. Laterally disposed dirt shoes lie adjacent the ends of the pick-up broom to prevent debris from flowing around the ends of the broom, whereby debris is further guided in­ wardly toward the pick-up broom for propulsion toward an elevator for transfer into a framework mounted debris hopper.
