Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a cleaning device for urban furniture and signs such as road crossing signal lights.
  • the present invention seeks to remedy these drawbacks and proposes a device which is particularly simple and easy to implement, while allowing economical cleaning which is done in complete safety.
  • the cleaning device in particular for road crossing signaling lights is of the type comprising a rotary brush connected to an electric motor as well as to a reservoir comprising a cleaning liquid, and is characterized in that the brush rotary is arranged at the end of a transverse arm secured to the upper part of a main mast formed by several tubular elements made of composite material, the lower element of which constitutes a cartridge for the batteries, while the cleaning fluid tank is an independent auxiliary tank comprising a manual pressurizing piston.
  • the rotary brush is circular, while in a preferred embodiment it comprises a series of peripheral bristles. Note also that it includes a series of frontal hairs and can include a series of corner hairs.
  • the diameter of the brush is substantially equal to the diameter of the lights.
  • the liquid arrives in the brush animated by a rotational movement, and the length of the transverse arm is slightly greater than the length of the fire hoods.
  • the transverse axis arm advantageously forms with the axis of the main mast an obtuse angle.
  • Figure 1 is a schematic view in longitudinal section of the device of the invention.
  • Figure 2 is a schematic exterior view showing the various elements of the device.
  • Figure 3 is a sectional view illustrating in more detail the upper part of the mast.
  • Figure 4 is an illustration of the use of the device.
  • Figure 5 is a partial view showing an execution detail.
  • Figure 6 shows an alternative embodiment of the brush.
  • FIGS 7, 8 and 9 are illustrations of alternative embodiments.
  • Figures 10 and 11 illustrate an alternative embodiment
  • Figure 10 is an overall schematic view
  • Figure 11 is an enlarged view of the transverse arm.
  • the device of the invention bearing in the figures the general reference (1) comprises a rotary brush (2) disposed on a transverse arm (3) integral with the upper part (4) of a main mast (5), and also includes a reservoir (60) containing a cleaning liquid (7).
  • the main mast (5) consists of a tube which can be formed from several elements which fit together, so that it can be disassembled and possibly transported in a small vehicle such as for example an urban vehicle. It includes for example, a lower element (6) comprising batteries (7a, 7b, 7c, 7d), extended by an intermediate element (8) comprising a control handle (9), an upper element (10) forming the arm transverse (3) in which is arranged a motor (11) intended to put the brush in rotation, said mast comprising, moreover, a tubular element (12) connecting the upper element (10) to the intermediate element (8) .
  • the various elements constituting the mast and its transverse arm can be made of any suitable material, but are advantageously made of composite material such as glass or carbon fibers impregnated with resin.
  • the device can advantageously also include means for recharging the batteries.
  • the lower element (6) is removable and constitutes a cartridge for the batteries, and the user can therefore have at his disposal several of these cartridges.
  • the upper element (10) comprises the transverse arm (3) which has a generally tubular shape with an axis (YY ') substantially perpendicular to the general axis (XX') of the mast, and an extension lower tubular (13) extending towards the tubular element (12) to be its extension by interlocking.
  • the transverse arm (3) comprises two pivot bearings (14, 15) for the axis (16) of the brush, while the lower tubular extension (13) comprises the electric motor (11), the motor shaft of which ( 17) is connected to the axis (16) of the brush (2) by means of two conical bevel gear gears (18, 19).
  • the electric motor (11) is supplied with electric current by batteries or cells (7a, 7b, 7c, 7d) housed in the lower part of the main mast (5) and more particularly in the internal lower part of its element. lower tubular (6), as can be seen clearly in FIG. 1.
  • the control handle (9) advantageously consists of a hoop (20) forming protection for a control lever (21) or trigger, the latter being intended to starting and stopping the brush motor (2) and / or the water supply.
  • the control lever being connected for this purpose to, on the one hand, a switch (22) disposed on the electrical circuit (23), and on the other hand, to a valve (24) disposed on the supply conduit ( 25).
  • a switch (22) disposed on the electrical circuit (23)
  • a valve (24) disposed on the supply conduit ( 25).
  • the tank (6) for cleaning liquid is an independent auxiliary tank comprising pressurizing means such as, for example, a manual piston (26) well known in sprayers currently on the market.
  • pressurizing means such as, for example, a manual piston (26) well known in sprayers currently on the market.
  • the liquid from the pressurized tank is brought to the mast (5) by a supply pipe (27), the latter being more precisely connected to the supply pipe (25) of the mast by means of an upstream connection (28) of the type compressed air allowing disconnection without leaking liquid.
  • the pivot axis (16) of the brush (2) is hollow and is connected to the supply conduit by a swivel connector (29).
  • the brush (2) includes a base (30) and that the axis (16) includes a central hole (31) opening outwards (EX) in the center of the base (30) in the area occupied by the bristles (32) of said brush.
  • the central hole (31) thus constitutes a liquid inlet conduit connected to the supply conduit (25).
  • the tank (60) comprises carrying means (33) which are, for example, constituted by two carrying straps (34a, 34b) and possibly a waist belt (35).
  • carrying means (33) which are, for example, constituted by two carrying straps (34a, 34b) and possibly a waist belt (35).
  • an elastic strap (36) intended to connect the user (37) to the mast.
  • the strap carries, for example, at each of its ends, a hooking carabiner (36a, 36b) one of which (36a) is intended to engage with a hooking member (38) disposed at the lower end of the mast, while the other of the carabiners (36b) is hooked to a hooking member (39) secured to the carrying means (33).
  • the length (L1) of the mast (5) and the width (L2) of the elastic strap (36) is such that in the neutral simple carrying position like that of FIG. 4, the brush (2) is naturally substantially at upper fire level (40).
  • the user will only have to provide an effort to switch to the lower light and this by urging the device downwards against the action of the traction of the elastic strap (36).
  • the carrying means could constitute a vest for the user.
  • the brush is circular and has a diameter (D1) substantially equal to the diameter (D2) of the lights.
  • the length (L3) of the transverse arm (3) is slightly greater than the length (L4) of the light covers (44), as can be seen more clearly in FIG. 5.
  • the brush comprises a series of bristles peripherals (320), a series of frontal hairs (321) and a series of corner hairs (322).
  • the brush can rotate at a speed of between 50 and 200 revolutions per minute and, for example, 120 revolutions per minute, and note that the cleaning liquid can be pure water or any other cleaning liquid.
  • the mast had several brushes instead of one, such as, for example, three brushes (2, 2 ', 2' ') as illustrated in the figure 7.
  • FIG. 8 represents a variant according to which the axis (YY ') is not strictly perpendicular to the axis (XX') but forms with the latter an obtuse angle B.
  • the cleaning device described by way of example is more particularly intended for cleaning traffic lights, but could just as easily be used for cleaning other articles such as traffic signs, billboards or street furniture.
  • FIGS 10 and 11 illustrate an alternative embodiment in which the transverse arm forms with the mast an obtuse angle B of about 110 ° while the motor (17) is housed inside the transverse arm (3).
  • the mast consists of two elements, allowing the user to dismantle the lower part, and thus be able to store the device in his vehicle during transport.
