Definitions

  • This invention is related generally to apparatus for treatment of surfaces such as floors, roadways and the like which present at least surface segments that are generally planar. More particularly, the invention relates to an apparatus for determining an area of such a surface traversed and treated by an object per unit of time.
  • Various devices and methods have been developed in the past for the treatment of surfaces such as floors, roadways and the like where the surface to be treated, if not planar, has segments which are generally so. While a carpeted floor surface is obviously practically planar, a roadway or any other exemplary surface may be considered planar for the purpose of the invention if it has an axis lateral to the path traversed by the object which is generally straight and if the radius of curvature of the path traversed by the object is very large compared to the size of the object. Examples of the latter circumstances include street sweepers and road graders, both of which treat the travelled surface.
  • the rate at which a given apparatus can treat or otherwise prepare a particular surface per unit of time will depend in significant part upon the initial condition of the surface. Other factors such as the skill of the operator may also affect the rate at which a surface may be treated. When treating such surfaces, it is often useful for the operator to be able to readily ascertain the coverage rate at which the apparatus is proceeding across the surface and this information, coupled with personal observations of the operator, will permit the apparatus to be moved across the surface at the maximum speed consistent with satisfactory treatment.
  • an operator of a road grading machine may undertake to prepare and treat road surfaces, one of which has only sparsely distributed, small projecting imperfections and a second road surface on which such imperfections are both frequent and sizeable. Therefore, satisfactory treatment of the second road surface can only result if the machine is moved thereacross at a substantially lower rate compared to the first road surface.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide such an apparatus which can reduce labor costs in tasks involving the treatment of surfaces.
  • Still another object of the invention is to provide such an apparatus which permits the most rapid treatment of a surface consistent with acceptable quality. Yet another object of this invention is to provide such an apparatus which continuously displays to the operator the rate at which a machine is traversing and treating a surface area.
  • Still another object of the invention is to provide such an apparatus which may be readily adapted to a variety of types of surface treating machines.
  • An apparatus for determining an area of a surface which is traversed and treated by an object during a unit of time is configured for use with a oveable object that has a first axis of a known length.
  • the object is capable of movement along a second axis and the first and second axes define an angle between them which is other than 0° .
  • a signalling means includes a sensor which may be mounted in a motion-sensing relationship to the object for providing a motion signal when the object moves a distance along the second axis.
  • the motion signal has a predetermined relationship to that distance.
  • a timing means repetitively provides a plurality of timing signals, each sequential pair of which defines an interval of time of known duration.
  • a computing means is coupled to the timing means and to the signalling means for receiving at least one sequential pair of timing signals and at least one motion signal.
  • the computing means thereby initiates a display of the area of the surface which is traversed by the first axis per unit of time and therefore treated as the object moves along the second axis.
  • a carpet cleaning machine usually has its component which performs the cleaning operation, a brush or foam application nozzle, arranged along a first axis which is generally normal to the second axis of travel.
  • the surface treating component, a blade or a rotating brush are often disposed during use along a first axis which defines an angle less than 90° with respect to the second axis of travel.
  • the area of the surface traversed for each increment of distance travelled along the second axis may be readily computed. For example, if a carpet cleaning machine is equipped with a brush which is disposed generally normal to the second axis and which has a length of two feet, an area of six square feet will be treated for each three feet in linear distance that the machine moves along the second axis. Additionally, if the rate at which the machine is moved along the second axis can be measured or determined, the rate of treatment coverage, in area per unit time, can be determined. In the foregoing example, if the carpet cleaning machine moved along the second axis for a distance of three feet in two seconds, the machine will have treated carpet at the rate of 10,800 square feet per hour.
  • the apparatus of this invention may be used with an object that includes a carriage and a treating means, e.g. brush, mounted on the carriage to interact with the surface to be treated.
  • a treating means e.g. brush
  • the dimension of the exemplary brush will be the dimension of the part of the brush in contact with the carpet and projected to a plane normal to the second axis of travel.
  • the object will preferably be equipped with a rotating member, such as a wheel, which is mounted on the carriage.
  • the apparatus includes a sensor to be mounted in a motion detecting relationship to the wheel for providing input pulses as the carriage moves along the second axis. This sensor co-acts with other portions of the signalling means for providing a plurality of input pulses as the carriage moves along the second axis.
  • a timing section repetitively provides a plurality of timing signals, each sequential pair of which defines an interval of time of known duration. These timing signals are used to periodically update the display as described following, and the interval of time is selected in view of the application.
  • the interval of time may be selected to be 15-20 seconds since the speed of the machine is governed by engine throttle and is relatively constant.
  • an interval of 2-4 seconds is more appropriate for a carpet cleaning machine since this interval will "damp out” slight variations in the walking speed of the operator while yet providing a rate of coverage display which is sufficiently current in view of.the fact that a walking operator may change pace very quickly.
  • a computing section is coupled to the timing section and to the signalling section for receiving the timing signals and the output pulse strings, the latter being generated by the signalling section in response to the input pulses.
  • the computing section is arranged to count the number of individual pulses included in output pulse strings and received by the computing section during the interval of time as determined by the timing section.
  • the computing section initiates and periodically updates a display of the surface area being traversed by the first axis for the selected unit of time and as the machine is moved along the second axis.
  • the sensor may co-act to result in the generation of input signals.
  • small magnets may be mounted on the side of the wheel and at regularly spaced intervals in a circular pattern which is concentric with the wheel axis . These magnets could be used to operate a reed switch sensor.
  • Other approaches include the use of a proximity sensor capable of detecting projections similarly arranged on the wheel or a photo sensor may be used.
  • a Hall effect sensor is preferred. As the wheel rotates and each individual magnet comes into close proximity of the Hall sensor, an input signal is generated thereby and is directed to a pulse conditioner which generates an output pulse for each received input signal.
  • the output pulse actuates an output pulse string generator which generates a plurality of output pulses, a string of pulses, for each input signal received at the pulse conditioner.
  • the number of individual pulses which constitute each output pulse string is preferably adjustable for the reasons and in the manner described in detail following.
  • the individual pulses which make up each of the output pulse strings are directed to a computing section which registers each pulse and upon on the receipt of a reset signal from the timing section, the computer stores the pulse count and causes its display, by an LED panel for example, for reference by the operator. The operator may then adjust the speed of the machine along the second axis to provide desired treatment rate.
  • a lightly soiled short pile carpet may be capable of being cleaned at the rate of 12,000 square feet per hour while the same carpet which is heavily soiled should be cleaned at no more than about 7,000 square feet per hour.

Abstract

Un appareil (10) servant à déterminer la superficie d'une surface et traitée par un objet pendant une unité de temps est conçu pour être utilisé avec un objet mobile (11) qui possède un premier axe (17) d'une longueur connue. L'objet peut se déplacer le long d'un second axe (19) et les premier et second axes (17, 19) forment un angle qui est autre que 0°. Un dispositif de signalisation (28) comprend un détecteur (27) qui peut être monté de manière à établir un rapport de détection de mouvement avec l'objet (11) afin de produire un signal de mouvement lorsque l'objet (11) se déplace à une distance le long du second axe (19). Le signal de mouvement présente un rapport prédéterminé avec cette distance. Un dispositif à minuterie (45) produit de manière répétitive une multiplicité de signaux de temps dont chaque paire séquentielle définit un intervalle de temps d'une durée connue. Un dispositif de calcul (43) est couplé au dispositif à minuterie (45) et au dispositif de signalisation (28) afin de recevoir au moins une paire séquentielle de signaux de temps et au moins un signal de mouvement. Le dispositif de calcul (43) produit ainsi un affichage de la superficie de surface qui est parcourue par le premier axe (17) par unité de temps et par conséquent traitée alors que l'objet (11) se déplace le long du second axe (19).
