It has a connected structure that allows it to travel around curved areas, and this work trolley is equipped with a water spray mechanism and a wiper blade (14) to perform automatic cleaning all around the building. .

[Example] Hereinafter, one practical example of the present invention will be explained in detail with reference to the first page.

Figures 1 and 2 show the side view of this invention.
It is a right side view showing a city view and a mounting mechanism concerning one example of a 1m device.

A transverse rail 11 is placed at the upper limit of the window glass 10, which is the nameplate of the FM, and is integrated with the window frame, and several of them are installed in the building 12.
The cross section that opens laterally is shaped like a lip groove steel.

The traverse platform 0713 that traverses along the upper and lower pair of traverse rails 11 is composed of a main body vehicle 14 at the top of the traveling force surface and a work vehicle 15 connected to it.
It is in a vertical state facing the window glass 10.

These main body trolley 14 and bamboo trolley 15 each have a running gear Ω1G that travels on the lip portion 11a of the transverse rail 11, and a C; j: ? from the transverse rail 11 while engaging with the groove 11b. Two sets of guide wheels 17 are provided ('J') to guide the vehicle so that it does not move.

As shown in the enlarged view of FIG. 3(a), the running wheels 161 provided on the upper part of the main body truck 14 and the workbench R1715 have bearings mounted on the brackets 1 to 18 welded to the front surface of the truck 14.15. ( ), a horizontal rotating shaft 19 is supported, and a running wheel 1G is attached to the tip of this rotating shaft 19 (4(
There are at least one subblock 1 to 20 at the base end of one of the two rotating shafts 19. and,
Trolley 14. ．． A gear wheel 23 is applied between sprockets 1 to 22 of a running drive motor 21 mounted on the upper end of the wheel 15 to drive the running wheels 16.

Furthermore, horizontally protruding brackets 1 to 24 are welded to the 110th surface of the truck 1=1.15, and a guide ring 17 that rotates around a vertical axis is attached to this bracket 24.

On the other hand, running wheels 16 and guide wheels (Q17) provided at the bottom of the main body truck 14 and the work truck 15 are shown in FIG. 3(b).
), the suspension mechanism 25 is designed to accommodate slight changes in the spacing of the traversing rails 11 for smooth running, and the suspension mechanism 25 is designed to allow the carriages 14, . A vertical support shaft 27 is attached to a braut 26 protruding forward from the bracket 15 so as to be movable up and down, and a ]-shaped support frame 28 is removed to sandwich the upper and lower ends of the support shaft 27. A compression coil spring 29 is interposed between the support frame 26 and the support frame 28.

A running wheel 1 rotating around a horizontal axis is provided in front of this support frame 28.
6 is attached, while a guide wheel 17 that rotates vertically around fl'l11 is attached to a bracket 1-30 that projects horizontally from the support frame 28, and supports slight changes in the spacing of the transverse rails 11. The shaft 27 absorbs this by moving up and down against the compression coil spring 29 at an angle of 1.

In addition, the front of the main body truck 14 (the first
On the left side of the figure, rotary brushes 31 each having a size corresponding to the groove 11b of the upper and lower transverse rails 11 are arranged in order to remove lintels, etc. from the upper and lower transverse rails 11 and ensure smooth running. , a brush motor 32 mounted on the upper end of the main body truck 11 and a chain 33 are connected to each other so as to be driven.

Next, the water sprinkling mechanism 34 mounted on the work trolley 15 that is self-propelled laterally in this manner will be described.

The water sprinkling mechanisms 34 are arranged at equal intervals at four locations in the vertical direction of the work cart 15 so as to uniformly spray fresh water onto the surface of the window glass 10. Each watering mechanism 34 is provided with a rotary disk 36 which is directly connected to a water 35 and driven to rotate, as shown in FIG. 4 in its front state and in FIG. 5 in its plan view, respectively. Its axis of rotation is parallel to the window glass 10 and tilted slightly with respect to the horizontal so that the rotating disk 36 side is positioned downward. A water sprinkling pipe 38 with a flow rate regulating valve 37 is installed at the top of the rotating disk 36, and dripping fresh water is directed to an eccentric position above the center of the rotating disk 36 and further away from the window glass 10. It's starting to hit.

Therefore, when the fresh water adjusted to a predetermined level by the flow rate regulating valve 37 is dripped onto the rotating disk 36, it is scattered by the rotational force and spread evenly onto the -C window glass 10.

A wiper mechanism 39, which is installed at the rear of the water sprinkler 4vJ34 in the running direction and scrapes off dirty water and VJ dust that has settled on the surface of the window glass 10 along with the sprayed fresh water, is shown in its planar state in FIG. The right side is shown in Figure 6.
, a pair of upper and lower mounting plates 40 are provided at the vertical intermediate portion of the work trolley 15, and a mounting frame 1.1 is attached to the mounting frame 41. A screw jack 42 that moves toward and away from the shaft is attached, and is driven via an upper motor 43, a chain 44, and subrockets 1 to 45. The tip of the screw jack 42 is connected to the arm 4 via a pin.
6 are connected to each other, and a wiper member 47 made of a flexible material (for example, EPT rubber) and having a length corresponding to the height of the window glass 10 is attached to the intermediate portion of the arm 46. In addition, the tip portions of spring members 48 formed in an abbreviated shape are attached to multiple locations in the height direction h of the wiper member 47, and the base end portions are fixed to the side surface of the work cart 15 to elastically move the wiper member 47. I am starting to support it.

Further, a wiper mechanism 49 of the same structure is provided on the outside of the rear part of the work trolley 15 in the running direction, and is designed to clean the glass area. It is the length. This wiper member 50 is also driven by a screw jack 51 and a motor 52.

Therefore, both the wiper member 47 for cleaning the window glass 10 and the wiper member 50 for the louver portion drive the motor 43.52 to extend and retract the screw jack 42°51. It can be pushed against or evacuated.

In order to collect the wastewater cleaned by the wiper mechanism 39, a wastewater receiver IIJ53 is attached to the lower part of the work cart 15, and can be pumped up by the wastewater pump 5/I.

Next, a fresh water tank 55 containing live water for cleaning is mounted on the main body truck 14 that runs in front of the work truck 15, and the fresh water pump 5G supplies water to each water sprinkling mechanism 3/I of the work truck 15. It's like a monkey. Further, a sewage tank 57 is mounted at the bottom of the main body truck 1z to hold sewage sent by a sewage pump 54 from a sewage receiver 53 at the bottom of the work truck 15. Furthermore, a batch system 58 that supplies power to the motors of each mechanism provided on the main body truck 14 and the workbench *15 is mounted, and a control device 59 that controls the entire cleaning device including the traveling shade is mounted. It is equipped with radio control and can be operated by radio.

As mentioned above, in order to attach the transverse automatic external cleaning device (111) to the transverse rail 11 on a predetermined floor of a building, for example, a gondola suspended from the rooftop is used.
The mounting width in this case will be explained in FIG. 2.

Openings into which guide wheels 17 can be inserted are formed at predetermined locations on the traversing rail 11 in correspondence with the positions of the running wheels 16 and guide wheels 17 of the main body stand i:I'u 14 and the work cart 15. Yes, it must be installed to fit this opening.

For this purpose, a mounting machine fS61 is provided on a support stand 60 (not shown) protruding from the condoler, and the mounting machine fS61 is installed in the mounting hole of each trolley 14. The mounting frame 62 is configured such that an eccentric lever 65 is fitted into a fitting portion 64 at the center of the mounting frame 62 and can be rotated by an angle adjustment handle 66.

On the other hand, each mounting mechanism 61 is mounted on a support base 60 with a screw jack 6.
7, and is operated by a height adjustment handle 68.

In addition, the gondola is also provided with an extendable arm to fix its position, and is adapted to fit with a fixing pin or the like on the building side.

Therefore, the cleaning mount can be attached to the traversing rail by performing these height and angle adjustments.

In this way, the traversing type automatic outer surface W1 cleaning device was attached to the traversing rail 15, and the rotating brush 31 for cleaning the traversing rail 11
For those who drive the brush downstream 32, the running wheel 1
6 is driven by a travel drive motor 21, and the -12 main body truck 14 and work truck 15 are moved in a coupled state.

At the same time as this self-running, the fresh water pump 56 drips live water onto the rotary disk 36 via the flow rate adjustment valve 37 of each water sprinkling lever 34 to uniformly spray the window glass 10.

Further, a wiper member 47 for the window glass is pushed out from the wiper mechanism 39 to a predetermined position to wipe the window glass 10.

As a result, water is sprayed along with the self-propelled movement, and along with the water spray, dirt and dust on the surface of the window glass 10 are continuously scraped off by the wiper member 47 and collected in the dirty water receiver (no. 53), thereby performing automatic cleaning. .

Even if there is a slight change in the spacing of the traversing rail 11, since the lower running wheels 16 and guide wheels 17 are attached via the suspension mechanism 25, this can be absorbed and the vehicle can run smoothly.

In addition, if the building is equipped with side mullion window glass all around, it must pass through the curved corner part, but the cart must pass through the main cart 14 and the work cart 15.
Since the connection is 4:4, it can pass through without any support, and since the wiper member 47 is also arranged in the vertical direction, cleaning can be performed completely.

In the above embodiment, one traversing automatic cleaning device was used, and it was moved to a predetermined location using the gondola J3 and mounting mechanism, but multiple devices were prepared to clean each floor at once. It may be arranged so that rr+111 appears.

Moreover, the movement is not limited to the case where a gondola is used, but a dedicated elevating device may be provided for movement.

Furthermore, if the surface of the window glass shade to be cleaned is flat, the trolley should be integrated without a connected structure, so that it does not move reciprocatingly.
Wiper mechanisms are provided on both sides of the water spray mechanism, and the wiper mechanism at the rear in the running direction can be used while cleaning in either direction, allowing efficient cleaning.

In addition, the driving wheel drive i) J I14:4, water sprinkling mechanism, wiper mechanism, etc. are not limited to those mentioned above.
Or it should be something that can be wiped off.

Furthermore, the cleaning surface 91 is not limited to window glass, but may also be a wall surface, etc., and is not limited to a flat surface, but may have a protrusion such as a sash, and in this case, the surface of the protrusion may A linear transverse rail may be provided along the protrusion, and the wiper member may be moved away from the protrusion.

In addition, although each mechanism is driven by a battery and can be controlled wirelessly, it is also possible to supply power from a rooftop or the like via a power cord, or to operate via a control cable or the like.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As specifically explained above in conjunction with the embodiments, according to the present invention, even if the window glass is horizontally seated or mullioned, it can be continuously cleaned (hanged) while being horizontally oriented.

The cleaning equipment is self-propelled along the transverse rail with the top and bottom restricted, so it can be used at all times regardless of environmental conditions such as wind and weather. It is also safer than automatic machines or manual methods.

In addition, the speed is m +1 faster than when done manually, and -1
5 = Can be cleaned efficiently and completely without leaving any residue.

Furthermore, compared to conventional roof cars and fold-down type cleaning devices, the device itself does not require winding up wires, has a simpler structure, is smaller and lighter, and can be made at a lower cost.
Handling and maintenance inspection are also easier.

In addition, if the traversing trolley is divided into a main trolley and a work trolley, it can pass through curved parts and automatically clean while traveling around the entire circumference of the building, resulting in even more efficient cleaning.
