Abstract

527,625. Road-sweeping machines. HEATON, F. S., and SCAMMELL LORRIES, Ltd. Nov. 11, 1938, No. 32777. [Class 107] A road-sweeping machine comprises a wheeled chassis adapted to be connected to a towing vehicle, inclined front and transverse rear brushes, a receiving receptacle into which the refuse is delivered by the rear brush, and an independent motor or engine to drive the road brushes, the front inclined one being adjustable laterally in the direction of its axis. The inclined brush c is mounted in pivoted links d carried by the chassis frame and is adjusted endwise by ropes d<SP>1</SP> and a handle g so that its position between the chassis and the kerb can be controlled. It is rotated through a universally mounted flexible link r' by chain gearing r, r' from a change-speed gear box n<SP>1</SP> driven by an independent motive unit n on the chassis. The transverse brush h, j is driven by chain gearing o, p, h<SP>2</SP>, h<SP>3</SP> from the motor, the same gearing also driving the elevating brushes j, k which rotate in a casing and deliver the refuse to the tank m. The transverse brush may be provided with an inclined portion h' at one end and the first elevating brush j may be provided with a helical termination j' at one end. The brushes may be raised and lowered to adjust their pressures on the road by a lever wand links v, u, and all the controls are handled by an operator riding on the chassis.
