METHOD OF FOOTWAY SWEEPING AND DEVICE TO THIS END Russian patent published in 2015 - IPC E01H1/02 

FIELD: process engineering.

SUBSTANCE: claimed process comprises feed of the brush (29) to garbage (28), grip thereof, heaving of garbage on endless belt (3) and conveying it to garbage collector (4). Complex motion is imparted to the brush (29) composed of the brush swinging about one and swinging of the latter about the second axis. Garbage is thrown by brush (29) onto endless belt (3) through the skew at belt end. Brush is driven to the garbage by said endless belt, garbage gripping being made in direction perpendicular to brush feed direction. Major garbage collection is performed with the help of trough with conveyor belt. In sweeping, the garbage is divided into coarse and fine fractions. Said fractions are separated by the web (24) in the garbage collector box (4). Claimed device comprises the motor mounted at the bed and articulated with brush (29) and endless belt (3) for transfer of garbage (28) into collector (4). Brush complex motion is realized by means of two swinging arms (10, 14), one (14) being coupled with brush (29) and provided with the crank. Pivot pin of said swinging pin and crank are arranged at the other swinging arm. Endless belt has recesses and the chamfer facing the brush. Endless belt (3) is placed on the pavement. Brush holder is shaped to a spade.

EFFECT: higher quality of cleaning, better performances.
