Definitions
- the present invention relates to a squeegee assembly for a floor cleaning machine for siphoning liquid from a floor surface to be cleaned with a central body having a central portion and first and second arms, the middle portion being adapted to be supported on a coupling member of the floor cleaning machine such the central portion is fixedly aligned with the coupling element, the arms extending away from the central portion on opposite sides in a suction foot plane, central sealing lips being disposed at the central portion between the arms, lateral sealing lips being attached to the arms on both sides of their extension direction , wherein the sealing lips extend toward the bottom surface to be cleaned, so that the central body and the sealing lips, when the free ends rest on the floor surface to be cleaned, define an interior, and wherein the M Ittelabites has a connection through which the interior can be connected to a dirt container of the floor cleaning machine. Furthermore, the invention relates to a floor cleaning machine with such a Saugfußan angel.
- Floor cleaning machines or scrubber-driers are known from the prior art, which have a scrubbing deck with driven brushes and a suction foot arranged behind the scrub deck when viewed in the direction of travel of the machine.
- liquid is first brought to the floor surface to be cleaned with the aid of the scrub deck, so that the dirt is released by the brushes from the floor surface to be cleaned and then absorbed by the cleaning fluid.
- the dirt-laden Liquid is sucked up again and transported via a suction pipe in a dirt container.
- a squeegee with a substantially elongated central body extending and bent transversely to the direction of travel is mounted on the chassis in a height-adjustable manner.
- the central body comprises two arms and a central portion, which are integrally formed with each other, and at the edges of the central body extending to the floor surface to be cleaned sealing lips made of rubber, so that between the sealing lips and the central body, an interior is formed, from which the dirt-laden liquid can be sucked up.
- a floor cleaning machine with such a suction foot is particularly suitable for cleaning large, flat floor surfaces, e.g. in pedestrian areas, on pedestrian and cycle paths or in underground garages.
- the EP 1 197 606 A1 discloses a squeegee having a central body having a center piece and arms hingedly hinged thereto.
- the centerpiece is provided with a spigot which goes directly into a pipe to a suction.
- the present invention has for its object to provide a floor cleaning machine and a designated Saugfußan extract that also allow to clean floor surfaces that have significant bumps.
- the arms are pivoted about pivotal connections to the central portion such that they can pivot away from the floor surface to be cleaned out of the suction cup plane.
- the central portion with the two arms of the central body is not configured in one piece or at least firmly connected thereto.
- the two arms are articulated rather pivoted at the central portion, so that they can each pivot freely from the Saugfußebene.
- the planes in which the two arms can be located may thus differ from the plane of the middle section. This occurs especially at the moment when the squeegee runs from a flat bottom surface to an inclined portion.
- the two arms can move independently of each other so that they pivot out of the Saugfußebene and are aligned at an inclined portion substantially parallel to this.
- the two arms can move independently of each other and so avoid any unevenness. Overall, it does not lead to unintentionally high forces that must be absorbed by the central body.
- the pivot connections are designed such that a pivoting movement of the arms out of the level of the suction base out towards the floor surface to be cleaned is limited to a pivot angle of less than 10 °, preferably less than 5 °.
- the pivotal connection is preferably mounted on the outside of the central portion facing away from the cleaning surface and the two arms. This allows pivoting of the two arms out of the Saugfußebene away from the floor surface to be cleaned, as soon as the squeegee hits a bump or a sloping portion.
- the limitation of the pivot angle down to the cleaning floor surface to an angle less than 10 ° is advantageous because then the entire squeegee can be lifted from the floor surface to be cleaned alone by lifting the central portion without the free ends of the arms specially supported Need to become.

- dirt-laden liquid is directed toward the central portion, where it passes through an opening mounted there in a forward facing central sealing lip into the interior and is sucked into the dirt container.
- first and the second pivot axis extend in the Saugfußebene. This allows the pivoting of the two arms in a plane perpendicular to the Saugfußebene.
- support wheels are attached to the ends of the arms remote from the central portion.
- the support wheels support the free ends of the arms. Because so that the sealing lips strip off water optimally, they must be in a predetermined position to the ground in order to move defined. The support rollers ensure that this position is reached.
