  2. Description of the Related Art A floor cleaning machine and a floor polishing machine are widely used in which a disk in which brush hair is implanted on one side is driven to rotate horizontally by a motor, and the floor surface is cleaned and polished at the tip of the brush hair. FIG. 8 is an external view of such a floor cleaning machine 50, and FIG. 9 is a sectional view. The mop or brush 53 attached to the tip of the rotating shaft 52 of the motor 51 performs cleaning, polishing, washing, etc. in contact with the floor surface. A disk-shaped pad, which is a non-woven abrasive that touches the surface, is used for cleaning and polishing small uneven surfaces, and a disk-shaped brush with nylon brush bristles used for polishing and cleaning that requires strong contact with the floor. Is used.

  Since the pad is light, it can be easily attached by sticking it to the disk-shaped pad base attached to the end of the motor rotation shaft. However, the disk-shaped brush is not as easy because it is heavier than the pad and has a strong reaction force from the floor. For this reason, for example, as shown in the example shown in FIG. 10, a disk-like brush substrate 55 is used, brush hairs 54 are implanted on one side, a mounting plate 56 is attached to the opposite side with screws, and the mounting plate 56 is attached to the end of the motor rotation shaft. It is fixed to the attached motor side attachment parts with screws or fittings and attached to the floor cleaner.

  In such an attachment method, since the motor-side attachment component has a specific structure, only a disk-like brush that employs an attachment plate having the structure can be adopted. For this reason, the disc-shaped brush sold by the manufacturer of the main body of the cleaner is inevitably used. Also, the disc-like brush is expensive because it requires a mounting plate. There is a method of removing the screwed mounting plate and replacing it with a new disc-shaped brush substrate having brush hairs implanted therein, but there is a problem that it takes time and effort to remove and mount.

  The present invention was made to solve these problems of the prior art, and the problem is that floor cleaning that does not require a special mounting plate on the disc-shaped brush side and can be easily installed on many commercial floor cleaners. It is to provide a rotating brush for a machine.

  The device according to claim 1 for solving the above-mentioned problem is a rotating brush used in a cleaning machine for cleaning and polishing a floor surface or the like by horizontally turning a disk-shaped rotating brush having brush bristles on one side by a motor. The rotating brush is formed by placing a bristles of a plurality of bristles on one side of a disc-like brush substrate having a hole in the center to form a brush, and by attaching a surface fastener to the entire opposite surface. In use, the hook-and-loop fastener on the opposite surface is attached to the needle-like protrusion formed on the lower surface side of the motor-side disk-shaped rotating body that is attached to the rotating shaft end of the motor of the floor cleaning machine and rotates horizontally. The rotating brush is configured to be driven to rotate by the rotation of the motor-side disk-shaped rotating body by engaging and attaching the.

  The rotating brush having such a configuration has an advantage that it can be used by being attached to the pad base of most commercial cleaners of the type that are used with the pad attached to the pad base. In addition, since a special metal mounting plate is not required for mounting, the mounting is inexpensive, and the mounting and removing can be easily performed.

  The invention described in claim 2 is the rotating brush according to claim 1, wherein the hook-and-loop fastener attached to the opposite side surface is a hook-and-loop hooked loop fastener, and hook and loop hooked hook-and-loop fasteners. It is either, The rotating brush characterized by the above-mentioned.

  According to such a configuration, there is an advantage that it can be easily attached to the pad base of most commercially available cleaning machines of the type in which the pad base is attached and used.

It is the external appearance perspective view seen from the lower surface side of the disk shaped rotating brush 1 which concerns on this invention. 1 is a plan view of a rotating brush 1. It is the end view which cut | disconnected the rotating brush 1 by the surface perpendicular | vertical to the upper surface which passes along the disk center. It is an example of sectional drawing of a commercial floor cleaning machine which attaches and uses a pad stand. It is an example of the perspective view by the side of the pad attachment surface of a commercial pad stand. It is the elements on larger scale of the surface of a commercial pad stand. It is sectional drawing of the state which attached the rotating brush 1 to the commercial floor cleaning machine. It is an example of the external appearance of a commercial floor cleaning machine.
