Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a guardrail cleaning device, and more particularly to a self-propelled guardrail cleaning device in which a traveling frame travels along a guardrail and cleaning is performed by rotating a cleaning brush attached to the guard frame.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Guardrails are provided on the shoulders and medians as a fence to prevent dangers on automobile roads, but since these guardrails are constantly exposed to wind and rain, dust, and even vehicle exhaust gas, their dirt is enormous. There is. However, in the past, there was no suitable device for cleaning the dirt on the guardrail, and if this guardrail cleaning was to be performed, it was unavoidable to resort to tedious and primitive manual work.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 In particular, on urban roads with heavy traffic, it is necessary to wash guardrails reasonably and efficiently from the viewpoint of beautifying the cityscape. Problems must be taken into consideration, and the workability of the guard rail cleaning work and the deterioration of work efficiency are unavoidable, which inevitably results in higher labor costs and work costs.

The present invention has been made in view of the above, and it is an object of the present invention to efficiently, safely and easily perform guardrail cleaning by labor saving of semi-unmanned work even on a road with heavy traffic. is there.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The gist of the present invention is to provide a running frame provided with a sliding trochanter engaged with the upper edge and the lower part of the guardrail and a drive trochanter directly connected to the motor as well as a guide trochanter, which is directly connected to the surface of the guardrail. A cleaning brush directly connected to the motor installed vertically on the frame, a cleaning water header having a plurality of cleaning nozzles corresponding to the cleaning brush, and a traveling vehicle loaded with a cleaning water pump unit connected to the cleaning water header. The guardrail cleaning device is characterized in that the traveling frame travels along the guardrail by the rotation of the driving trochanter and the cleaning brush rotates to perform cleaning. The present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings with reference to the following embodiments.

[0006]

【Example】

 First, 1 is a guardrail which is composed of upper and lower bulges 1a and 1b and a middle recess 1c, which are flanges 2a, 2c, 2e and 2g and webs 2b, 2d and 2f. It is provided for central separation. Next, 4 is a drive roller directly connected to the motor 8 which is in contact with the upper edge of the guard rail 1 and the lower web 2f, and the sliding rollers 5 and 5 and the guide roller 6 which are also in contact with the surface of the upper flange 2a. It is a running frame equipped with 7 respectively. Further, 10 is a cylindrical cleaning brush which is directly connected to a motor 11 which is vertically provided on the bracket 9 of the traveling frame 4. Further, reference numeral 13 is a washing water head having a plurality of (six) washing nozzles 12 corresponding to the washing brush 10, and is provided on the traveling frame 4 so as to be close to and parallel to the washing brush 10. In the embodiment, the guide trochanter 6 is attached to the wash water header 13 by the support plate 14. A traveling vehicle 15 is equipped with a washing water pump unit P including a washing water tank 16, a battery power source 17, and an electric pump 18, and can freely travel on a road 21. The electric pump 18 of the wash water pump unit P is connected to the wash water header 13 by a hose 20 via a cock 19. Then, the cleaning water is sprayed from the cleaning nozzles 12 to the cleaning brush 10 which is rotated by the motor 11, and the driving frame 7 rotates to cause the traveling frame 4 to travel along the guard rail 1 so that the cleaning brush 10 cleans the guard rail 1. It is supposed to be done.

[0007]

[Effect of device]

 As described above, the guardrail cleaning device of the present invention is a self-propelled system in which the traveling frame travels along the guardrail and the rotating cleaning brush faithfully cleans along the surface of the guardrail. In addition to contributing to labor saving, semi-unmanned cleaning work on roads with heavy traffic is possible, which helps prevent traffic accidents for workers, alleviates traffic congestion due to work, and improves the efficiency of cleaning work. Is large. And, by extension, it can greatly contribute to the beautification of the cityscape.
