Definitions

  • the invention relates to a floor cleaning machine which can be moved over the floor to be cleaned and has a cleaning unit which has the chassis, the wheels, at least one drive arrangement, at least one container for cleaning fluid and a panel, a cleaning unit attached to the machine unit and having at least one brush which can be driven in rotation.
  • a device for applying cleaning fluid to the floor to be cleaned and a suction for sucking spent cleaning fluid from the floor which is hinged to at least one substantially perpendicular to the ground axis extending pivotally mounted on the machine unit, so that in its lowered suction position of the cornering following the floor cleaning machine about the at least one axis pivots, and which is movable in a raised transport position, wherein the squeegee in his resulting when driving straight with lowered Saugfauß center position protrudes on both sides of the machine unit on this and this supernatant is reduced when pivoting from the center position at least on one side, preferably on both sides of the machine unit, and wherein the pivoting of the squeegee from the center position can be made in both directions to a respective end position.
  • Floor cleaning machines with such a basic structure are both as Aufsitzmaschinen ( DE-A-102 21 353 ) as well as hand-operated machines ( EP-B-0 398 393 ) and are widely used in the floor cleaning of commercial premises. It happens that the floor cleaning machine must be moved from one room to another, for which it is moved through passages or door openings, the width of which, although larger than the machine unit, but significantly lower than that due to the center position Suction foot resulting maximum width of the floor cleaning machine is.
  • a floor cleaning machine of the type mentioned is inventively designed such that the squeegee can be locked in the transport position by pivoting from the center position at least in one direction in a maneuvering and lockable in this against pivoting about the at least one axis.
  • the operator can effect locking in a maneuvering position in which the lateral projection of the squeegee is significantly reduced over the machine unit at least on one side. while on the other side of the supernatant is not or only slightly increased or even reduced.
  • the floor cleaning machine can therefore be moved in this state through relatively narrow passages or door openings, without it being necessary to make further changes, in particular a removal of the squeegee of the machine unit.
  • the maneuvering position in which the squeegee can be locked, can coincide with an end position of the squeegee, but it can also be achieved during pivoting of the squeegee, before the squeegee reaches the end position.
  • the locking of the squeegee in the maneuvering can be done in different ways.
  • One possibility is, for example, to provide on the machine unit an electromagnet, which is then activated when the raised suction cup is pivoted into the maneuvering position, so that the suction cup is then held by magnetic force in this maneuvering position.
  • a preferred robust construction results when a locking engagement region is present on the linkage connecting the suction foot to the machine unit, with which a locking element provided on the machine unit can be releasably engaged in the maneuvering position. It is particularly advantageous if the locking element engages under the linkage in the engaged position with the locking engagement area, so as to keep the squeegee reliably in its raised transport position.
  • the latch engaging portion may be in the form of a latch recess which may be an elongated passage opening for effecting such support, while the latch member may be in the form of an at least partially rotatable, substantially perpendicularly bottomed plug which is retractable against spring force and one has laterally extending support projection.
  • This pin can then be depressed in the maneuvering by the user against the spring force, so that it passes through the elongated passage opening together with its support projection.
  • the support projection is then brought into a position in which it engages under the edge region of the passage opening and is held in this locking position by the acting spring force. He also causes a support of the linkage and thus the squeegee.
  • the illustrated floor cleaning machine has a unit 1 with a conventional chassis or conventional frame, which is not recognizable because of the existing panel.
  • the usual for such floor cleaning machines not shown assemblies are arranged, including electric motors, batteries for their drive, a container for cleaning fluid, a container for spent cleaning liquid, a means to apply cleaning liquid from the cleaning liquid container to the floor to be cleaned, and a Suction pump for absorbing used cleaning liquid and conveying this cleaning liquid into the container for used cleaning liquid.
  • On the chassis driven wheels 2, 3 and support wheels 4, 5 are mounted in the form of pivotable about vertical axes castors. These facilitate the operator to guide and control the floor cleaning machine using the arranged at the rear end of the unit 1 guide handle 11th
  • a cleaning unit 6 is arranged in a conventional manner on the chassis, which is shown schematically and two indicated, to vertical axes rotationally driven cleaning brushes 7, 8 has.
  • the cleaning brushes are driven by their associated electric motors 9, 10.
  • the cleaning unit is in a known manner on one side of the machine unit something in order to allow in this way cleaning very close to walls.
  • a known and customary suction foot 12 is furthermore articulated thereon, which between a lowered suction layer (FIG. Fig. 1 ) in which it is in contact with the ground and absorbs spent cleaning liquid, and a raised transport position ( Fig. 2 ) is displaceable.
  • Means for raising and lowering the squeegee 12 are well known and not shown for ease of illustration.
  • the squeegee 12 is pivotally mounted by means of a provided on it, centrally mounted on its top plate 13 and a trapezoidal linkage 14 with horizontal pivot axes on a perpendicular to the floor to be cleaned extending pin 15. This pin is fixedly mounted on the chassis and forms an axis about which the linkage 14 and thus the squeegee 12 can pivot.
  • the pivotability of the squeegee 12 in its lowered suction position causes the squeegee swings laterally when cornering in the usual way to run over the previously cleaned by means of the cleaning unit soil and absorb the spent cleaning fluid from this.
  • the squeegee automatically aligns itself so that the longitudinal axis of the linkage 14 extends in a plane parallel to the longitudinal center plane of the machine unit 1.
  • the pin 15 is arranged slightly eccentrically on the chassis, so that, as in Fig. 3 it can be seen, the lateral Supernatant of the located in its center position squeegee 12 on the machine unit 1 on the side of the supernatant of the cleaning unit 6 is slightly larger than on the opposite side. This difference in the supernatant serves to ensure that the entire floor area processed by the cleaning unit 6 is swept by the suction foot 12.
  • the operator causes the lifting of the suction foot 12 into the transport position (FIG. Fig. 2 ).
  • this usually acts by the lifting device, not shown, on the connecting the squeegee 12 to the chassis linkage 14, a restoring force, the squeegee in the middle position according to Fig. 3 holds, the squeegee can be pivoted against this restoring force.
  • This restoring force exerted by the lifting device is in the lowered suction layer (FIG. Fig. 1 )
  • significantly reduced so that the squeegee swivel laterally when cornering and, if necessary. Swivel to the existing in both Ausschwenkraumen end positions, which are usually determined by stops.
  • the end regions of the suction stand on opposite sides of the machine unit 1 are considerably in the process of floor cleaning machine with befindlichem in raised transport position squeegee 12 before, and beyond is a certain lateral projection of the cleaning unit 6 on one side of the machine unit 1 available. If the operator in this state by a relatively narrow door opening or similar. would like to drive to move the floor cleaning machine from one area to be cleaned in another, so she manages generally by appropriately oblique start the door opening to maneuver the protruding portion of the cleaning unit 6 therethrough, then in straight travel the method of floor cleaning machine continue.
  • the operator can manually located in the raised transport position suction and against the possibly. Actual restoring force in the direction away from the side projection of the cleaning unit 6 in a maneuvering ( Fig. 4 and 5 ) pivot.
  • Fig. 4 shows, thereby reduces the supernatant of the Saugfußes 12 on the side of the supernatant of the cleaning unit 6 considerably.
  • the operator can lock the squeegee.
  • a roughly L-shaped locking arm 16 is rigidly mounted on the rod 14, which in the end region of its laterally projecting leg a keyhole-shaped opening 17 (FIG. Fig. 7 ) having.
  • a locking pin 18 is supported on a support plate 21 attached to the chassis. This locking pin extends with its longitudinal axis substantially perpendicular to the floor to be cleaned and by the support plate 21, so that its lower end, on which a laterally projecting support projection 19 is formed, located below the support plate.
  • the locking pin 18, which is composed of two firmly interconnected parts in order to pass it through the support plate 21 before the connection can be made, above the support plate has an annular shoulder on which a compression spring 20 is supported, which also rests on the support plate , In this way, the locking pin 18 is normally held in a raised position, which is determined by an annular shoulder, not shown, located on the underside of the support plate 21 portion of the locking pin 18.
  • the operator pivots this in his raised suction position in the maneuvering position.
  • this aligns the locking pin by gripping at its upper handle portion and twisting about its longitudinal axis so that the support projection 19 is aligned with the narrower part of the keyhole-shaped opening 17, and then pushes down the locking pin against the force of the spring 20 to the support projection 19 to pass through the latch recess.
  • By rotating the locking pin 18 about its longitudinal axis of the support projection 19 is displaced below the edge region of the through hole 17 so that the upward movement of the locking pin 18 is limited and locked in this way, the suction 12 in the maneuvering.
  • the support projection 19 also causes an additional support of the suction against a lowering movement.
  • the operator After passing through the narrow door opening, the operator unlocks the squeegee 12 in that it by rotation of the locking pin 18, the support projection 19 again in alignment with the longitudinal extent of the keyhole-shaped Through opening 17 brings and releases the locking pin in this position.
  • the locking pin is then lifted due to the force of the spring 20 and from the passage opening in the position according to Fig. 7 emotional. Now, the squeegee located in the raised transport position can swing back into the middle position.
