Floor-cleaning machine

Abstract

A floor-cleaning machine comprising a support trolley ( 2 ), on which support trolley ( 2 ) at least a floor-cleaning group ( 7 ) is installed, which floor-cleaning group ( 7 ) is provided with at least a flexible blade ( 70 ) and is mobile on board the support trolley ( 2 ) between a work position, in which the flexible blade ( 70 ) is in contact with a floor, and a rest position, in which the flexible blade ( 70 ) is distanced from the floor, the floor-cleaning machine comprising magnetic means ( 26 ) which are destined to block the floor-cleaning group ( 7 ) in the rest position.

1 ). A floor-cleaning machine comprising a support trolley ( 2 ), on which support trolley ( 2 ) at least a floor-cleaning group ( 7 ) is installed, which floor-cleaning group ( 7 ) is provided with at least a flexible blade ( 70 ) and is mobile on board the support trolley ( 2 ) between a work position, in which the flexible blade ( 70 ) is in contact with a floor, and a rest position, in which the flexible blade ( 70 ) is distanced from the floor, characterised in that it comprises magnetic means ( 26 ) which are destined to block the floor-cleaning group ( 7 ) in the rest position. 
   
   
       2 ). The floor-cleaning machine of  claim 1 , characterised in that the magnetic means ( 26 ) comprise a permanent magnet or an electromagnet. 
   
   
       3 ). The floor-cleaning machine of  claim 1 , characterised in that the magnetic means ( 26 ) are fixed on the support trolley ( 2 ). 
   
   
       4 ). The floor-cleaning machine of  claim 1 , characterised in that the floor-cleaning group ( 7 ) is connected to the support trolley ( 2 ) by means of a four-bar hinge ( 76 ), and that the magnetic means ( 26 ) are destined to act on the four-bar hinge ( 76 ). 
   
   
       5 ). The floor-cleaning machine of  claim 1 , characterised in that the floor-cleaning group ( 7 ) comprises a pair of flexible blades ( 70 ) separated by a space ( 72 ). 
   
   
       6 ). The floor-cleaning machine of  claim 5 , characterised in that the space ( 72 ) is in communication with a suction group ( 6 ) via a collecting reservoir ( 61 ).
