Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung (01) zum Reinigen von großen Flächen, insbesondere Gebäudefassaden und/oder Gebäudeverglasungen, mit einem Bürstenschlitten (04), an dem zumindest eine um ihre Mittelachse rotatorisch antreibbare Walzenbürste (02, 03) drehbar gelagert ist, und mit einer Halteeinrichtung, die eine Vorschubbewegung des Bürstenschlittens über die zu reinigende Fläche ermöglicht. An dem Bürstenschlitten (04) ist zumindest ein Ballastelement (11) befestigt, durch das das Gewicht des Bürstenschlittens (04) verändert werden kann.
