Definitions
- the present invention relates to a tillage machine with a chassis and at least one position-changeable tillage unit which is suspended on the chassis so as to be pivotable about a substantially vertical axis in order to change the working width.
- variable working width is intended to increase the flexibility with regard to the use of the soil working machine in question, as compared to tillage machines with a constant working width, since it can be used equally for processing large areas and narrow areas.
- a disadvantage of conventional generic tillage machines with a variable working width is that in the area of obstacles where the working width is temporarily reduced, areas remain unprocessed which are not covered by the position-changing tillage unit. Furthermore, the handling of known tillage machines in tillage in "dead ends", which require a reversal of the working direction, is difficult, especially if a change in the working width is necessary due to obstacles.
- the present invention has for its object to a generic tillage machine create, which does not have the disadvantages indicated above.
- this object is achieved in that the at least one position-adaptable tillage unit can be pivoted in two directions from its position corresponding to the maximum working width in order to reduce the working width. While in known tillage machines of the generic type the at least one position-changeable tillage unit can only be pivoted forwards or else only backwards from its position corresponding to the maximum working width to reduce the working width, the construction of the tillage machine according to the invention allows the at least one position-changing tillage unit to be pivoted from its position corresponding to the maximum working width in two directions, in particular both forwards and backwards.
- the position-adaptable tillage unit can automatically pivot backwards or forwards (depending on the tillage machine) to an obstacle restricting the working width regardless of the current working direction of the tillage machine, depending on whether the tillage machine is currently in or against the main direction of work is moved.
- the suspension according to the invention of the at least one position-changeable tillage unit allows tillage largely without dead spaces.
- the position-changing tillage unit extends in its maximum working width corresponding position across the working direction. This allows a particularly simple technical construction of the suspension.
- the at least one position-adaptable tillage unit is pretensioned into its position corresponding to the maximum working width by means of a spring device and can be deflected from this position in both directions against the force of the spring device. This further development is particularly advantageous in that it enables the working width to be automatically adjusted to the prevailing local conditions, regardless of the current working direction of the tillage machine.
- the at least one position-adaptable tillage unit is suspended on the chassis so as to be linearly displaceable in addition to its pivotability.
- the linear displacement of the at least one position-changeable tillage unit is particularly preferably carried out transversely to the working direction.
- Such a design of the suspension of the position-changing tillage unit further reduces the dead space during tillage around obstacles, in particular with a particularly complex design of the area to be worked.
- the variable-length tillage unit can be used in narrow niches and the like, in that it is laterally extended and retracted from the chassis.
- the arrangement of the at least one position-adaptable tillage unit on the (related to the main working direction) front edge of the chassis because in this case, the position-adaptable tillage unit can also be used for front-side tillage, especially in "dead ends”.
- a drive unit is advantageously provided, for example of a hydraulic or pneumatic type, for the linear displacement of the position-changing tillage unit used in the above-described development of the invention.
- automatic control is also possible in such a way that in the front area of the tillage machine a proximity or Push button switch is provided, which acts on the control of the drive unit for the at least one position-changeable tillage unit, in such a way that when the proximity or button switch is actuated, in particular when the tillage machine runs against the end wall of a "dead end", the position-changeable tillage units to reduce the working width.
- the soil tillage machine according to the invention is a floor cleaning machine whose sweeping unit, which can be changed in position, comprises a rotating endless belt
- the direction of rotation of the endless belt is reversible.
- Such reversibility of the direction of rotation of the endless Sweeping belt proves to be particularly advantageous in connection with the equivalence of floor cleaning in and against the main direction of work made possible by the invention.
- the floor around obstacles can be cleaned particularly effectively with the help of the circulating endless sweeping belt.
- a particularly preferred development of the invention in this context is characterized in that the direction of rotation of the endless return belt reverses automatically when the working direction is reversed.
- a further advantageous development of the invention also relates to floor cultivation machines designed as floor cleaning machines, in that a position-changing sweeping unit in the form of a roller brush is provided here.
- the bristle stock can extend helically around a central roller body in the form of a helix. With an appropriate direction of rotation of the roller brush, this results in an inward conveying movement of the sweepings. This favors a constant cleaning effect even when the roller brush is swiveled forwards or backwards - within certain limits.
- the field of application of the present invention is extremely wide.
- Floor cleaning machines of any kind in particular can be constructed in accordance with the present invention, for example sweepers, scrubbing machines, suction machines, suction and blowing machines and machines for pushing or clearing solid, liquid and pasty contaminants.
- the present invention can be used regardless of whether the length-adjustable sweeping unit is a rotating endless belt, one or comprises a plurality of roller brushes, one or more plate brushes, a sweeping auger or another driven sweeping element.
- the present invention can also be used in floor grinding machines. The same applies to machines for spraying the floor with water, disinfectants or the like.
- the present invention can be used in the same way in the indoor area and in the outdoor area.
- FIG. 1 is a plan view of a sweeping unit which can be changed in position and is arranged at the front right corner of a sweeper which is conventionally constructed and therefore not shown.
- Fig. 2 is a partial bottom view corresponding to Fig. 1;
- FIG 3 shows schematically in a view from below a particularly advantageous embodiment of a sweeping unit designed as a roller brush.
- the sweeper comprises, in a manner known as such, a chassis 1 which is supported on the floor by wheels. Of those wheels, the wheel 2, which is arranged in the center of the front area, is shown, which comprises a roller 5, which is mounted in a swivel castor support 4 which is pivotably mounted about a vertical axis 3.
- a sweeping roller 7 is rotatably driven about a horizontal axis 6.
- the structure of the sweeper corresponds to the state of the art, so that no further explanation is given.
- a carrier 10 for a position-changing sweeping unit 11 is provided.
- This carrier 10 consists of two sections which are connected to one another in an articulated manner, namely an inner section 12 which is rigidly connected to the chassis 1 and an outer section 13, the latter being pivotable in an articulated manner with the inner section 12 of the carrier about a horizontal axis 14 running parallel to the main working direction A. 10 is connected.
- the position-changing sweeping unit 11 is mounted on the outer section 13 of the carrier 10, so that the inclination of the sweeping unit 11 can be varied as a result of the above-mentioned articulated linkage, for example for cleaning ramps.
- the position-changing sweeping unit 11 comprises an endless sweeping belt 15 in the form of a link chain, the individual chain links having bristle trimmings 16.
- the link chain 15 is guided around two deflection wheels 17 and 18, which in turn are rotatably mounted in a reversible belt carrier 19.
- the Kehrbandzi 19 is pivotally mounted on the outer portion 13 of the carrier 10 about the axis 20, in such a way that a pivoting of the Kehrbandany 19 around the axis 20 around both forward (arrow B) and backward (arrow C) possible is.
- a spring device (not shown) the Kehrbandzi is biased into its position shown in the drawing, extending transversely to the working direction A, which corresponds to the maximum working width. A deflection of the sweeping unit 11 out of this position both towards the front (arrow B) and towards the rear (arrow C) is possible against a restoring force provided by that spring device.
- the Kehrbandffy 19 is provided on its top with a linear guide 21.
- a counterpart which is part of the suspension of the sweeping unit 11 on the carrier 10, is connected to this linear guide.
- the sweeping unit 11 By linearly moving the sweeping belt carrier 19 in that counterpart, the sweeping unit 11 can be moved linearly inwards in addition to its pivotability (arrow D).
- An intermediate position is illustrated with broken lines.
- the drive can be designed in any manner known as such, in particular by means of a separate motor arranged on the conveyor belt support 19, as well as by transmission by means of conventional transmission means from a central drive. That central drive can be a motor in the same way as a friction wheel driven by the movement of the sweeper.
- a proximity sensor 22 is arranged on the end face of the chassis 1. This responds as soon as the sweeper has moved so close to a wall, step or the like that the front run of the sweeping direction 11 turns directly on the wall or step.
- the proximity switch 22 acts on a drive unit (not shown) which linearly moves the sweeping unit 11 inwards (arrow D). In this way, the strip between the front wall of the sweeper and the opposite wall or step is swept.
- the direction of rotation of the sweeping belt 15 can be changed (double arrow E). In this way it can be ensured that when sweeping in the main working direction A, the front run of the sweeping belt 15 turns inwards and feeds the dirt to the main broom 7; when operating the sweeper against the main sweeping direction A, reversing the direction of rotation of the sweeping belt 15 returns its rear run inward and guides the dirt inward, where it can be picked up by the main sweeping roller 7 when the relevant strip is passed over again.
- FIG. 3 illustrates in a view from below the configuration of the position-changing sweeping unit 11 as a roller brush 24, which is rotatable about the axis 25 (arrow
- the roller brush 24 comprises a cylindrical central roller body 26 and a bristle stock 27 which extends in the form of a helix around the central roller body 26 in a helical manner.
- the helical bristle stock 27 exerts an inwardly directed conveying component on the debris 28 located in the working direction A in front of the roller brush 24 (arrow F).
- the roller brush 24 is suspended on the chassis 1 so as to be pivotable about the axis 29. It can be swiveled both forwards (arrow B) and backwards (arrow C) from its position perpendicular to the working direction A.
