Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device constructed as a specific extension part for weed mowers as a rotating sweep construction, for mainly removing plant remains, weeds, dirt and such from paved surfaces, in which the extension part consists of a disc (small brush disc) with pick-up elements or spaces, in which in each pick-up element a cover can be slided and fixed, which cover on its turn is clamped on a wire bundle for forming the mentioned rotating sweep construction and in which locking the mentioned cover can be done by means of a retaining pin mounted through a wall of the pick-up element or space and falling in a corresponding bore of the mentioned cover with wire bundle.
  • the extension part consists of a disc (small brush disc) with pick-up elements or spaces, in which in each pick-up element a cover can be slided and fixed, which cover on its turn is clamped on a wire bundle for forming the mentioned rotating sweep construction and in which locking the mentioned cover can be done by means of a retaining pin mounted through a wall of the pick-up element or space
  • a large brush plate suitable for attachment underneath sweep machines which brush consists of a large disc of a welded construction, that, when used, is in a horizontal surface and is supplied with pick-up bushes divided along the circumference, making an angle with the surface of the disc.
  • the mentioned large brush plate has, complete including the brushes a weight of approximately 45 kg!
  • a cover with wire brush as sweeping part can be slided in.
  • Each pick-up bush has a socket against which the cover rests when sliding it in the pick-up bush, so that pushing the cover through the pick-up bush is avoided.
  • the pick-up bush On a distance of the socket the pick-up bush has a, to the inside pointed springy stop instrument, which locks the cover in the pick-up bush by means of a matching bore.
  • Weed mowers are provided with so-called small or compact brush plates.
  • Weed mower is a generic name for mowers with a long shank.
  • the present invention concerns a so-called extension part for this weed mower for removing plants and dirt on hard surfaces.
  • extension parts available provided with a single rotating thread for mowing grass, or a circular saw for removing bushes and such, or for working as a rotary cultivator and/or arrow the ground.
  • the aim of the present invention concerns to provide such a device or improved rotating disc-shaped sweep construction as extension part for mounting underneath weed mowers, in which the aforementioned disadvantages are solved and of which the working is better and especially the safety is guaranteed, the operating, mounting and such is much better and can be produced in an economically sound manner.
  • a device constructed as an improved rotating disc-shaped sweep construction for mounting underneath sweep machines is further developed on a very inventive way, characterized in that the mentioned disc with pick-up spaces is formed by milling out from a relatively thin cylindrical disc with outer diameter D1 and height Hi, also called small brush plate, in which as pick-up spaces almost quadrangular recesses are milled out for the receipt with little clearance of mentioned almost quadrangular cover with wire bundle in an angler ⁇ with the horizontal, in which the quadrangular recesses or pick-up spaces have a side of D2 and a depth H2, in which H2 ⁇ H1, in which the mentioned springy extendible retaining pin with bolt head is applied radially from a central polygonal recess with inscribed circle with diameter D3 and a depth H3 and with that is adjustable with regard to the insert length retaining pin, in which H3 ⁇ H2 ⁇ H1, and in which the mentioned central polygonal recess is provided with a central through bore with diameter D4 for mounting to the weed mower, in which
  • the device according to the invention is further developed in such a way, that the mentioned diameter D1 is approximately 130 mm and the height H1 approximately 35 mm, in which the further dimensions are D2 approximately 23 mm, H2 approximately 29 mm, D3 approximately 70 mm, D4 approximately 20 mm variable in connection with the thickness of the weed mowers' shaft and H3 approximately 24 mm.
  • the weight of the present small brush plate is, due to using aluminium approximately 950 grams, in which this is supplied with 3 covers with twisted steel wire ends.
  • the advantage is that a popular very useable disc is created for rotating sweeping work for weed control underneath weed mowers.
  • the device according to the invention is further developed in such a way, that the mentioned springy extendible retaining pin for operation with a special open-end spanner is provided with a bolt head, in which the mentioned springy extendible retaining pin is mounted springy and a bolt with larger diameter is screwed in threaded wire in the wall of the mentioned quadrangular recesses and fixed with a roughened safety plate, in which around the shank of the mentioned springy extendible retaining pin a compression spring is applied, in which the insert depth of the mentioned springy extendible retaining pin is adjustable from the central polygonal recess by means of a threaded slot, in which the special open-end spanner is flanged in a small angle ⁇ near the end.
  • the advantage is that the springy extendible retaining pin by means of mounting in a bolt with larger diameter locks the whole solidly to a wall towards the quadrangular recesses and in which also the insert depth of the locking pin is adjustable.
  • the device according to the invention is further developed in such a way, that the mentioned wire bundle is twisted steel wire of wire elements with an outer diameter of approximately 14 mm, in which the protruding length of the mentioned steel wire of the wire bundle is approximately 120 mm, and in which the mentioned cover is pushed from a round shape into the quadrangular shape, through which the mentioned steel wire is extremely solidly fixed.
  • the advantage is a very solid and wear-resistant wire bundle shaped as a twisted steel wire, which itself does not rotate in the small brush plate and is locked safely with little power in the retaining pin close-fitted in the pick-up elements.
  • the steel wire turns open so that each separate wire works as a knife on the weeds to be removed and this improves the working.
  • Figure 1 shows a front view of the disc 1 with an outer diameter D1 (approximately 130 mm) and a depth H1 (approximately 35 mm).
  • D1 outer diameter
  • H1 depth
  • Figure 2 shows this and that in cross-section for further explanation.
  • the inner milled out polygonal 5 which has an inscribed circle with a diameter D3 (approximately 70 mm) and depth H3 (approximately 24 mm), along the circumference six springy extendible retaining pins 6 with bolt head 7 are applied, which is placed springy (compression spring 8) in a larger bolt 9 which with a rough safety plate 10 in the wall 11.
  • the springy extendible retaining pin 6 locks the cover 3 with wire bundle 4.
  • the wire bundle 4 can preferably also be a twisted steel wire with protruding length of approximately 120 mm. Further, for weight-saving and decreasing the centrifugal force, several (six) recesses 12 are applied by means of milling out.
  • the material of the disc 1 is preferably aluminium alloy, but also a strong plastic such as polypropylene can be eligible.
  • a through bore 13 is applied with diameter D4 (approximately 20 mm) for mounting to the weed mower (not indicated).
  • the wire bundle 4 is positioned in an angle ⁇ of approximately 90 degrees in relation to the surface of the disc 1 (see figure 2).
  • Figures 2 and 4 also show that with the special open-end spanner 14, which is flanged near the end in an angle ⁇ , the springy extendible retaining pin 6 can be pulled out in direction A by a movement of the special open-end spanner in the direction B.
  • Figure 3 shows a front view similar to figure 1 of the disc with black quadrangular with a number of placement possibilities of wire bundles 4 with covers 3.
  • Figure 4 again shows in oblique projection the mounting of the cover 3 with wire bundle 4 in the disc 1 as small brush plate with help of the special open-end spanner. Adjustment of the insert length of the retaining pins 6 is done by means of screwing the shank of it, supplied with socket 15 into the head of the retaining pin 6.
  • figure 5 shows in oblique projection the complete extension part consisting of disc 1 with wire bundles 4 supplied with quadrangular cover 3.
