  • a lateral displacement of the winch 8 on the rail 7 also causes a lateral displacement of the cleaning device 1 on the roof 3.
  • the figure 2 represents a partial view of three quarters in perspective of the cleaning device 1.
  • the cleaning device 1 is in the form of a casing of parallelepipedal general shape (not shown in FIG. figure 2 for readability).
  • the proximal portion 1a has a perforated plate 14 corresponding to the proximal face of the cleaning device 1 and through which are disposed the displacement means 10 and the cleaning means 11.
  • the displacement means 10 are in the form of four wheels (10a, 10b, 10c, 10d) advantageously arranged at the four corners of the plate 14 in order to allow the displacement of the cleaning device 1 on a roof 3.
  • the cleaning means 11 consist of a plurality of brushes 15 shaped to be held by the perforated plate 14 and able to brush and clean the roof 3 on which the cleaning device 1 moves.
  • each brush 15 is in the form of a cylindrical element 16 having at its proximal end 16a a horsehair assembly 17 of conical shape capable of brushing the roof 3, the horsehair assembly 17 being in contact with the roof 3 and its dirt.
  • the cylindrical element 16 is associated with a crenellated wheel 18 adapted to be rotated by the drive means 12, and more specifically by a drive belt 19, the cylindrical element 16 passing through the central axis of the wheel 18.
  • the cylindrical element 16 is shaped in such a way that a movement of the wheel 18 on itself causes a movement of the cylindrical element 16 on itself, the cylindrical element 16 being however able to move according to its longitudinal axis in order to adapt the brush 15 to any type of surface (flat, curved, inclined, ..) to be cleaned, that is to say, so that the set of horsehairs 17 is always in contact with the roof 3.
  • the drive belt 19 is in contact with all the castellated wheels 18 of the brushes 15, so that a movement of the drive belt 19 allows the rotation of the castellated wheels 18 about themselves about their central axis. , and therefore the rotation on themselves of the cylindrical elements 16 and horsehair assemblies 17 on the roof 3, thereby achieving the brushing and cleaning of the roof 3.
  • the distal portion 1b consists of the suction means 13 comprising a motor assembly 20, of a type known per se, capable of sucking the dirt picked up by two suction heads (21, 22) present on two opposite lateral faces of the cleaning 1.
  • Each suction head (21, 22) is of a known type and each has an internal volume (21a, 22a) delimited by two flanges (21b, 21c, 22b, 22c) and in which a suction pressure is exerted on the roof 3 thus allowing the brushed dirt to be sucked by the cleaning means 11.
  • the user must therefore using the remote control means 2, first of all, to clean an area of the roof 3 with the help of the brushes 15, to then suck up the brushed soils in this area at the same time. help of the aspirating heads (21, 22).
  • the suction heads (21, 22) are connected to the motor unit 20 via a suction pipe 23.
  • the dirt sucked by the motor 20 is then rejected by a discharge pipe 24 opening into a storage tank (not shown but of known type) disposed above the distal portion 1b.
  • the motor assembly 20 is also capable of grinding the dirt sucked by the suction heads (21, 22) so as to reduce their volume occupied in the storage tank.
  • the figure 4 is a schematic three-quarter view of the proximal portion 1a of the cleaning device 1.
  • the drive means 12 of the cleaning means 11 consist of a drive motor 25 adapted to drive the drive belt 19 and are remotely controlled by the remote control means 2.
  • the drive motor 25 is connected to the drive belt 19 as well as to a travel belt 26 which connects the wheels to each other (10a, 10b, 10c, 10d), the wheels (10a, 10b, 10c, 10d) also being constituted by a crenellated wheel 27 on which the displacement belt 26 bears, a displacement of the displacement belt 27 causing a displacement of the corresponding wheel (10a, 10b, 10c, 10d).
  • Each wheel (10a, 10b, 10c, 10d) also comprises a cylindrical element 28 of the same type and function as the cylindrical element 16 of the brushes 15.
  • the wheel (10a, 10b, 10c, 10d) also has a cylindrical element 28 capable of moving longitudinally and in association with a castellated wheel 27 in such a way that a rotation of the castellated wheel 27 causes a rotation of the cylindrical element around its longitudinal axis.
  • a rotational movement of the castellated wheels 27 of the wheels (10a, 10b, 10c, 10d) causes a displacement in rotation about its longitudinal axis of the cylindrical element 28 and thus a displacement in rotation of the corresponding wheel (10a, 10b, 10c, 10d).
  • a cross 29 connects the wheels (10a, 10b, 10c, 10d) in pairs by the distal ends of the cylindrical elements 27.
  • the figure 5 represents a top view of the proximal portion 1a of the device according to the invention.
  • the wheels (10a, 10b, 10c, 10d) are all connected to each other by a displacement belt 26 but two of them (10a, 10b) are also connected by wheel control means 30 able to direct and maintain the two wheels connected (10a, 10b) by the control means in parallel displacement 30-them .
