Definitions

  • the present invention concerns a brush and a method for manufacturing such a brush.
  • the invention concerns a rotating brush for brushing a pavement surface, comprising bundles of fibres which are preferably formed of metal fibres provided in holders, and whereby these holders are fixed to a part of a brush body.
  • rotating brushes designed to be implemented when carrying out heavy brushing operations, for example for brushing loose, brushing away respectively, weeds growing from out of the road surface, as well as for brushing away grass and weeds growing rank as of a roadside or the like over the edge of a road surface.
  • the far ends of the above-mentioned holders are sawn off slantwise, and these holders are welded with their slanting far ends to the lower side of the above-mentioned part of the brush body.
  • the necessary welding work is rather difficult to accomplish, and the use of a welding robot is excluded.
  • the present invention aims a brush whose construction is easy to realise, with a minimum of working time and with a solid fastening of the bundles of fibres in the part of the brush body, whereby moreover one or several of the above-mentioned disadvantages of the known embodiments are excluded.
  • the invention consists of a brush, in particular a rotating brush for brushing a pavement surface, comprising bundles of fibres that are provided in holders, and whereby these holders are fixed to a part of a brush body, characterised in that the holders are not only provided in openings in the part of the brush body, but are also welded onto the part of the brush body.
  • the welding operations and/or the accompanying preparations can be considerably simplified.
  • the position of the holders is now automatically determined by the position of the above-mentioned openings, as a result of which the positioning of the holders, prior to the welding, is considerably simpler. Thanks to this automatic positioning, it is no longer necessary to make use of a jig.
  • the above-mentioned openings extend through the part of the brush body, and the holders provided in the openings are fixed by means of welding on the backside of the part of the brush body.
  • the holders are welded on the backside of the part of the brush body, all the spots where welded joints have to be realised to this end will be easily accessible, which also makes it possible for such welded joints to be realised with a welding robot.
  • the holders protrude though the above-mentioned openings, according to a preferred embodiment, they no longer have to be cut slantwise at their top end, not even when they have been inserted slantwise in relation to the part of the brush body.
  • the holders can always have a straight cut form at their top end, at right angles to their longitudinal direction, which makes them easier to manufacture.
  • the invention also concerns a method for manufacturing a brush, in particular a rotating brush as described above, characterised in that it at least consists in the formation of a part of a brush body; in providing openings in this part of the brush body; in fixing bundles of fibres in these holders; in providing the bundles of fibres to the part of the brush body by placing them with their holders in the aforesaid openings; and in connecting the holders with the part of the brush body by means of one or several welded joints.
  • This method allows for an efficient manufacturing of the brushes.
  • the welded joints are preferably realised by means of a welding robot.
  • Figures 1 and 2 represent a known rotating brush 1 for brushing a pavement surface.
  • This brush 1 can be fastened to a rotating part 3 provided under a vehicle by means of fasteners 2, which in the given example of the figures consist of bolts, such that the brush 1 can be moved in a rotating manner over a pavement surface or the like.
  • the brush 1 mainly consists of a part of a brush body 4 on the one hand, and of a number of bundles of fibres 6, fixed in bush-shaped holders 5 on the other hand, which, in the represented brush 1, stagger in relation to one another in two circular rows along the perimeter of the part of the brush body 4.
  • the bundles of fibres 6 consist of metal, in particular steel wire, and they are formed of pieces of twined or twisted steel cable, cut at the required length. Every bundle of fibres 6 is fixed in a holder 5 at its top end by clamping it.
  • the holders 5 are fixed under the part of the brush body 4 at a slanting angle. To this end, every holder 5 has a top end 7 that is cut slantwise, with which it is connected to the lower side of the part of the brush body 4 via a welded joint 8. This welded joint 8 extends over the entire perimeter of the holder 5.
  • a casing consisting of a case 9, which is fixed to the corresponding holder 5 by means of a straining ring 10.
  • These cases 9 prevent the bundles of fibres 6 from unravelling or deforming to an unwanted degree at their far ends while the brush 1 is in use. While in use, they will wear away together with the bundles of fibres 6.
  • the brush 1 according to the invention mainly consists of a part of a brush body 4 and bundles of fibres 6 which are fixed to the part of the brush body 4 by means of holders 5.
  • a case 9 is provided around every bundle of fibres 6, which is optional, however.
  • the invention is special in that the holders 5 are provided in openings 11 in the part of the brush body 4, in particular in continuous openings, and are also welded onto the part of the brush body 4.
  • the part of the brush body 4 consists of a metal disc.
  • this disc which is represented separately in figure 5, two rows of such openings 11 are provided along the perimeter, in such a manner that the successive openings stagger in relation to one another.
  • the openings 11, as represented, are preferably oval or elliptic, whereby they have a diameter D1 in the radial direction of the part of the brush body 4 which is larger than the diameter D2 of the holders 5.
  • the difference in diameter is hereby selected such that, when the holders 5 are provided in the openings 11 and have been tilted until they make contact with the edge 12 of the openings 11 concerned, as represented in figure 6, the required tilting of the holders 5 and the bundles of fibres 6 is obtained.
  • the openings 11 In the tangential direction, the openings 11 have a diameter D3 which is practically equal to the diameter D2 of the holders 5.
  • the holders 5 each time have a straight cut form at their far ends 13 situated on the part of the brush body 4, at right angles to the longitudinal direction of the holder 5 concerned. As opposed to the known embodiment from figures 1 and 2, the holders 5 are not cut slantwise on one far end here.
  • the holders 5 are fixed in the openings 11 in such a manner that the rear edge 14 of these holders 5, near its part 15 which is directed towards the centre of the brush 1, is situated at the height or almost at the height of the back side 16 of the part of the brush body 4, while the opposite part 17 then protrudes further from the back side 16.
  • Each holder 5 is connected to the part of the brush body 4 by means of welded joints 18-19.
  • These welded joints 18-19 are, as represented, preferably realised on the back side 16 of the part of the brush body 4, and they consist of local welded joints situated at the aforesaid two parts 15 and 17 respectively.
  • welded joints 18-19 are, as represented, preferably realised on the back side 16 of the part of the brush body 4, and they consist of local welded joints situated at the aforesaid two parts 15 and 17 respectively.
  • use can be made of welded joints situated elsewhere on the perimeter of the holders 5, or even of a single welded joint extending over the entire perimeter.
  • the holders 5 are not only welded onto the part of the brush body 4, but are also provided in openings therein, a particularly rigid structure is obtained. Moreover, the construction of the invention makes it possible for such brushes 1 to be realised according to a method which is considerably less time-consuming than the method applied for the aforesaid known embodiments.
  • a part of a brush body 4 is formed, whereby for example a round disc of steel is taken as a basis, in which openings 11, for example such as in figure 5, are then provided.
  • openings 11 can be realised in any way whatsoever, but preferably they are cut out by means of a laser, so that very precise openings 11 are obtained, which offers the advantage that the holders 5 provided in them later on always take up an accurate position.
  • each of the openings 11 is provided a bundle of fibres 6, as represented in figure 8, by sticking it with its holder 5 in the opening 11 concerned and by tilting the holder 5 with the bundle of fibres 6 provided in it, as represented in figure 9, until the edge 12 of the opening 11 functions as a stop.
  • the above-mentioned welded joints 18-19 are realised, preferably by means of a welding robot.
  • the holders 5 fit through the openings 11, they do not have to be cut off slantwise at their top ends, as a result of which they are easier to form.
  • the openings 11 automatically provide for the right positioning of the holders 5 in relation to the part of the brush body 4, such that the time-consuming use of a jig for positioning the holders 5 can be excluded.
  • the welded joints 18-19 can be realised on the backside 16 of the part of the brush body 4, the places where these welded joints 18-19 have to be provided for are easily accessible to a laser robot, as opposed to the known embodiment from figures 1 and 2, where the welded joints 8 have to be realised between the bundles of fibres 6.
  • the holders 5 are held in the openings 11, the welded joints 18-19 are loaded less heavily while the brush 1 is in use, and locally made welded joints 18-19 will suffice.
  • the holders 5 are preferably cut off crosswise to their longitudinal direction at their top ends in the brush 1 according to the invention, it is not excluded either to cut them slantwise, such that they do not protrude from the back side 16 of the part of the brush body 4.
  • the invention is particularly advantageous when bundles of fibres 6 are applied which are directly provided in holders 5, whereby these holders 5 are welded in turn in the openings 11.
  • this does not exclude that use can be made according to the invention of holders made of different parts, such that the bundles of fibres 6 can be dismounted.
  • a bundle of fibres 6 can for example be fixed in a first bush-shaped part, whereby this first bush-shaped part can be provided in a second bush-shaped part, such that it can be dismounted, and whereby this second bush-shaped part is then welded in an opening 11, as described above.
  • the holders 5 must not necessarily be embodied as a bush and must not necessarily be cylindrical.
