Definitions
- the present invention relates to a machine for cleaning floors and stairs, particularly suitable for large areas such as in public buildings, common parts of buildings etc ...
- the devices commonly used by cleaning companies generally fulfill only one insufficient function for the floor to be considered as cleaned after the agent and its device have passed through. Correct cleaning indeed requires a certain number of operations.
- the cleaning action requires that the liquid be uniformly distributed over the surface of the soil, because the dirt from the solid medium constituted by the soil is eliminated at the interface with the aqueous medium constituted by the liquid widespread maintenance by the machine, the solid particles of dirt being dissolved there or settling therein.
- the overall external functionality of the device in light of its purpose thus exposed, reveals two main functions, the distribution of the liquid and its uniform distribution in thin film, as well as a third secondary function of cleaning aid, brushing.
- a brush can also be passed between the two above operations, in order to increase the cleaning efficiency.
- this document is aimed at a device intended for the stripping of fibrous residues (mosses, corks) and organic residues (natural foams) fixed to the floors and walls, by kneading, scraping, crushing and stripping under the combined action of a sharp steel blade or brush and multiple microjets disposed behind the blade and delivering a chemical solvent.
- This device is heavy by its design and its field of use: its solvent tank has a capacity of 12 liters and it is therefore planned to equip it with wheels to avoid crushing the brush under the weight exercised. Its handling is therefore quite painful, and it is in fact intended exclusively for large areas such as sports tracks or tennis courts (elimination of mosses) or garages or factories whose soil is cluttered with heavy deposits such as grease and sludge.
- the whole design is consistent with a heavy and complex structure, even when it comes to control systems.
- the liquid supply is managed by an extremely complex system, controlled by a tap whose quarter-turn opening and closing is ensured by a metal rod which fits into the head of the tap and which is connected by through the handle to a handle pivotally mounted on said handle.
- the device according to the invention fills the gaps mentioned by combining several operations, distributing the cleaning product, brushing and drying by spreading, either simultaneously or sequentially, at the discretion of the user.
- This device maintains the floors by the joint action of a cleaning liquid distributed by a horizontal ramp supplied from a reservoir and at least one scraper blade or brush disposed parallel to said ramp, the tank-spreading ramp assembly- blade or brush being mounted on a handling handle.
- the blade is a rubber squeegee, and said ramp is located in front of said squeegee and associated with at least one brush driven by a reciprocating linear movement by an electric motor powered by a battery carried by the handle and serving at the same time to actuate the minus a mini-pump supplying the boom with liquid.
- the handle is composed of an inclined upper portion on which said reservoir is mounted and of a less inclined and A-shaped lower part, the bar of A carrying said electric motor and the lower ends carrying the squeegee in rubber, the liquid spreading boom and the brush fitted with these reciprocating drive means.
- the upper portion of the handle ends with an operating handle on which are placed triggers for controlling the finger supply of the ramp with liquid and the movement of the brushes.
- the reciprocating movement of the brushes results from the transformation of a circular movement of a disc carried on the axis of the electric motor into a reciprocating linear movement by means of a lever pivoting on an axis fixedly mounted on a transverse bar disposed at the end of the branches of A, one end of this lever being articulated at the periphery of said disc, and the other end being articulated on a fixed point of said brush.
- the cleaning apparatus of the invention consists of a handle (1) whose upper end is reinforced with a handle allowing easy handling of the machine by a single user, said handle being moreover fitted with a trigger (2) to allow the agent to control the flow of maintenance liquid, and very generally to modify the cleaning characteristics.
- a reservoir (10) of maintenance liquid is attached to the upper part of the handle, under the handle.
- the trigger (2) controls for example the opening of small valves by means of a mechanical system with cables and springs (3), thus releasing a certain amount of water added with cleaning product proportional to the duration of the pressure exerted on the trigger. According to an improvement, it can be connected to an electrical circuit triggering the actuation of mini-pumps whose function is also to distribute the cleaning liquid.
- the lower part (4) in contact with the ground, substituted for the brush of a conventional broom, is presented as a piece of sheet metal, for example of aluminum, of great length compared to a usual broom.
- the volume enclosed by the part lower (4) is delimited by a squeegee (8) in rubber, or in a material whose flexibility properties are equivalent, and which also makes its entire length.
- this row of brushes ( 9) can advantageously be actuated by an electric motor of reduced size operating on batteries or battery and capable of communicating to them an alternating rectilinear movement back and forth.
- FIG. 4 A second configuration of the present invention is shown in Figure 4. It is a heavier structure than the previous one incorporating additional improvements.
- this structure (10) takes the form of an A to which a wider base and a protrusion starting from its top have been added.
- the latter materializes the handle (11) also comprising a control device actuating an electric motor (12) placed in the upper part of the A, powered by a rechargeable battery (13), the function of which is to vibrate the row of brushes ( 9).
- This variant also meets the main characteristics developed for the first configuration.
