Definitions

  • the invention relates to a cleaning device for a facade with the features in the preamble of claim 1.
  • the invention is also implemented on a cleaning system.
  • Glass and facade cleaning is often carried out manually by means of one located on a work basket of a facade exterior access system
  • a facade exterior access system can be, for example, a lifting platform or telescopic forklift, whose telescopic arm lifts the work basket attached to it to a height of approx. 60 meters.
  • a facade exterior access system in the form of a gondola system permanently installed on the building, the work basket of which is lowered from the roof on ropes directly in front of the facade to be cleaned.
  • WO 97/33509 describes an automatic cleaning device with convertible support legs.
  • a manipulator with a cleaning head is arranged on a frame suspended on ropes, with which a
  • Confirmation copy Window pane is scanned line by line and cleaned.
  • the frame is suspended from a crane or trolley, which can be moved laterally on rails which are attached to the roof of the building.
  • the frame is supported by means of the at least two convertible support legs via holders that can be detachably attached to the facade surface.
  • WO 95/29620 also discloses an automatic cleaning device for a facade with a movable along the building facade
  • the work cage carries a frame with a pivot arm attached to it, at one end of which a cleaning head is attached. There is also a on the work basket
  • Cantilever arm attached with a rope pulley on which a rope engaging the cleaning head is positioned for positioning the cleaning head.
  • the cleaning head is mechanically decoupled from the work basket and contains an electromagnet which interacts with a ferromagnetic slide guided behind the pane to be cleaned, as a result of which the
  • Cleaning head is held securely on the disc. This is to prevent a pendulum movement of the work cage caused by wind power from being transmitted to the cleaning head.
  • the main disadvantage of the known cleaning devices is that the glass and facade cleaning is often only carried out once or twice a year and therefore permanently installed, fully automatic systems can hardly be operated economically.
  • the invention was therefore based on the object of providing a cleaning device which changes with as little effort as possible
  • the object is achieved with the features of claim 1.
  • the robot arm is attached to the work cage exclusively via the connecting plate.
  • the connecting plate has, in particular, a one-part or multi-part flat surface which bears against the work cage in the assembled position and preferably contacts it on one side.
  • the connecting plate is advantageously detachably attached to an outside of the work cage facing the facade. This has the advantage that the interior of the work basket can be walked on by an operator almost without restrictions. In addition, the cleaning device does not need to be lifted over the walls of the work basket during assembly and disassembly, as a result of which set-up times are reduced considerably.
  • the connecting plate In its assembled position, the connecting plate is typically oriented essentially vertically and thus regularly parallel to the facade.
  • the robot arm also only acts on the connecting plate, so that when the cleaning device changes location, only the
  • the cleaning process is not fully automatic, but in one
  • the cleaning can be carried out by a single person who is also able to use the cleaning device on the existing facade exterior access system, typically a gondola system permanently installed on the building, or a rented facade.
  • External access system typically a mobile lifting platform.
  • a single cleaning device can be installed on different facade exterior access systems, whereby a high economic profitability is achieved.
  • the work basket In the case of surfaces to be cleaned on the facade that are not within the reach of the cleaning device, the work basket is moved over the facade exterior access system. The quality control of the
  • the cleaning result is achieved by the one in the work basket
  • a form-locking means is preferably formed on the connecting plate, with which the cleaning device can be hung on the work cage.
  • the term “hook in” is understood in particular to mean a releasable fastening for absorbing forces acting in the direction of the normal force.
  • the form-locking means is typically hung on a single wall of the work basket.
  • a form-fit means means one or more components that protrude but are firmly connected to the connecting plate and that can be brought into active engagement with the work cage. If the form-fitting means comprises several components, these should be arranged on a common side of the connecting plate.
  • the one or more form-fitting means at least partially encompass parts of the work basket and thereby hold the cleaning device in position. This makes it possible for a single person to install the cleaning device by hanging it on the work basket without additional help from outside. Additional clamping elements can be used to further fix the connection plate to the work cage, which hold the already aligned connection plate free of play on the work cage.
  • the robot arm is a vertical articulated arm robot.
  • Vertical articulated arm robots also known as vertical articulated arm robots, are robots with serial kinematics consisting of several axes, which enable any movement including tilting movements in all directions.
  • a first horizontal axis of rotation serves to rotate a first one
  • the end effector for attaching the cleaning head is attached, which can be moved in any orientation via up to three axes.

  • the robot foot expediently comprises a stationary on the
  • the base flange and rotary flange enable the articulated arms following in the direction of the cleaning head to rotate about a horizontal axis.
  • a third swivel joint with a third bearing axis can be arranged between the first articulated arm and a second articulated arm, the third bearing axis always being aligned parallel to the second bearing axis.
  • a fourth swivel joint with a fourth bearing axis can also be arranged between the second articulated arm and a third articulated arm, the fourth bearing axis always being aligned parallel to the second and third bearing axis.
  • the third articulated arm has
  • the receiving element via which the cleaning head is connected to the robot arm.
  • the receiving element can be donated around a further three axes and enable any spatial orientation of the end effector.
  • the cleaning head preferably has a base plate.
  • the base plate serves as an abutment for all components on the cleaning head and is also located in the power flow to the robot arm.
  • An adapter plate which is connected to the robot arm, in particular to its receiving element, is advantageously arranged on the base plate.
  • the mechanical connection of the cleaning head to the robot arm takes place exclusively via the adapter plate and the receiving element, which can be designed as a mechanical quick coupling.
  • a measuring plate with a force-torque sensor is advantageously arranged between the base plate and the adapter plate.
  • the force-torque sensor can include, for example, strain gauges and detects the resulting operating forces acting on the cleaning head.
  • the force-torque sensor is used to adjust the spatial orientation of the cleaning head.
  • operating forces growing above a predetermined threshold value can be an indication of excessive pressure on the cleaning head on the facade to be cleaned. In this case it would depend on the sensitivity of the facade to be cleaned
  • a distance sensor is attached to the base plate.
  • the distance sensor should be arranged such that its measuring lobe is directed towards the facade in the working position of the cleaning head. In this way, projecting building contours can be identified and, if necessary, the distance of the cleaning head can be adapted to the actual course of the facade.
  • a boom rocker is preferably arranged on the base plate.
  • the cantilever rocker arm is only attached to the base plate with one end section and swings relative to the base plate in a spatial plane oriented at right angles to the base plate.
  • the mobility of the cantilever rocker with respect to the base plate can be realized by designing the cantilever rocker arm as a leaf spring which, under the operational forces to be expected, causes a reversible deformation in the spatial plane.
  • the boom rocker engages the base plate by means of a pivot bearing. This results in a defined pivoting movement of the boom rocker around the pivot bearing.
  • the liquid injection nozzle is advantageously fastened to the boom rocker, preferably to the end of the boom rocker which is distal with respect to the base plate. In this way, a relatively constant distance between the liquid injection nozzle and the facade is achieved in the working area, regardless of the distance of the base plate to the facade and the
  • Base plate recognized and, if necessary, by a method of
  • Robot arm a greater distance from the base plate to the facade
  • the base plate of the cleaning head is thus kept at a constant distance from the facade and a constant contact pressure is regulated by querying the angle sensor.
  • the boom rocker may be supported on the base plate by means of a spring element.
  • the spring element ensures a defined pressing force of the cantilever arm against the facade and, on the other hand, for sufficient spring travel in the case of smaller, protruding building contours. It also starts
  • the spring element is typically a passive spring-damper system.
  • the spring element is preferably interchangeable with the aid of quick-release fasteners in order to be able to react to different facade surfaces and contamination intensities via different spring elements with different spring characteristics.
  • the brush is preferably a cleaning roller, the axis of rotation of which is always aligned parallel to the base plate.
  • the cleaning roller contacts the facade to be cleaned in a line.
  • the cleaning roller has one
  • Diameter is selected.
  • the removal device is advantageously arranged parallel to the axis of rotation of the brush. Because of this, the pulling device is at a constant distance from the cleaning roller and the liquid to be removed from the pulling device runs to the lower end of the pulling device due to gravity when the pulling device is in a vertical position. With a cell-shaped cleaning of the facade from top to bottom, the risk of the liquid escaping onto the already cleaned facade is minimized even when the cleaning head is turned and the direction of work is inverted.
  • the puller is advantageously attached to the boom rocker. This results in the advantage that the cantilever swing arm that is present anyway is also used functionally for the pulling device and for others
  • the brush and the pull-off device are kinematically coupled on account of their common cantilever arm and are thus aligned essentially equidistant from the facade in the working position of the cleaning device.
  • the pull-off device is fastened to the boom rocker by means of a movable bearing, which permits a relative movement between the brush and the pull-off device.
  • the resultant advantage lies in the possibility of liquid contaminated with dirt particles behind the brush up to the corner of a building contour projecting with respect to the facade with the movably mounted one
  • the cleaning head As soon as the brush hits a protruding building contour in the working direction, the cleaning head is moved away from the facade via the robot arm and the brush is thereby lifted off the protruding building contour. Due to the movable and spring-preloaded mounting of the puller, the puller continues to contact the facade and can be brought up to the projecting building contour in the working direction, so that any liquid remaining on the facade is completely removed.
  • the movable bearing can be a linear unit, for example.
  • a linear unit is understood to be a straight guide equipped with rolling elements or plain bearings.
  • the linear unit enables an exclusively translatory movement of the pulling device relative to the
  • the linear unit is able to absorb transverse and torsional forces and the boom arm in one with respect to the
  • the intended distance between the brush and the pull-off device is kept constant except in the direction of movement of the linear unit, so that a complete removal of the liquid in the area of the above building contours is possible.
  • a suction device expediently acts on the pulling device.

  • Lateral distance sensors can be seen protruding building contours, which protrude transversely to the working direction on the facade and on which the cleaning head is as precise as possible, either manually or automatically, based on the measurement signals provided by the lateral distance sensors
  • the cleaning head can approach the protruding building contour as precisely as possible, so that the facade is cleaned as comprehensively as possible, without however colliding with the protruding building contour and sometimes damaging it.
  • the distance sensor and / or the first and second side distance sensors is an ultrasonic sensor.
  • the main advantage of this configuration is that there is no camera system, which is often susceptible to changing light conditions and reflections on reflecting surfaces.
  • the use of ultrasonic sensors does not cause any problems with regard to any personal rights of persons located inside the building and visible through glazed facades, since these cannot be identified when using ultrasonic sensors as with a camera system.
  • the invention can also be implemented in connection with a cleaning system, in which there is additionally a liquid reservoir which is connected to the cleaning head via an inlet line.
