Abstract
1403860 Floor polishing machines F SCHOPPE 13 June 1973 [13 June 1972] 28113/73 Heading A4F [Also in Divisions B7 G3 and G4] An automatically controlled floor polisher has five polishing brushes 4 driven by motor 5 directly connected to the central brush and connected to the others through a belt drive. Adjacent polishing brushes are driven in opposite directions. The polisher is driven by wheels 8 whose direction can be altered to steer the polisher by chain 13 which is moved by a motor 22, Fig.1 (not shown). The wheels are driven by a chain 21 from a motor (10). The outside frame of the polisher is provided with a resilient shield 26 which operates contacts 27 when it hits an obstacle. In operation the polisher is controlled by programs (see Division G3) to map the area which is to be treated by running to a boundary wall and progressing around this boundary. The positioned information contained is stored in a memory as is the information of the areas treated. When it has completed the treatment the memory is scanned to see if any section of the total area remains untreated and the machine subsequently treats this remaining section.
