Floor Cleaning Machine for Gardening Industry

Parks and gardens, as important components of urban ecosystems, not only provide leisure and entertainment places for citizens, but also play an important role in improving urban environmental quality, regulating climate, and other aspects. Maintaining the cleanliness and hygiene of parks and gardens is the key to improving their landscape quality and service functions. With the continuous technology advancement, modern cleaning equipment such as industrial floor scrubber machine and industrial street sweeper have gradually been widely used in the park and garden industries, which is bringing revolutionary changes to the cleaning work in this industry.

Environmental Characteristics and Challenges of Garden

Wide area, Complex terrain

The area of gardens is relatively large, ranging from tens of thousands of square meters to hundreds of thousands of square meters. At the same time, its terrain is rich and diverse, including flat squares, winding paths, undulating hills, and areas with varying slopes. This makes the coverage of cleaning work wide and is difficult to carry out cleaning operations on different terrains.

Various Types of Garbage

In gardens, the sources of garbage are extensive and diverse. Food packaging bags, beverage bottles, paper and other household waste generated by tourist activities can be seen everywhere. There are also a large number of fallen leaves, flowers, dead branches, and dust blown by the wind caused by natural factors. In some special seasons, such as the accumulation of large amounts of fallen leaves in autumn, pollen falling in spring, and muddy ground after rain, cleaning work brings additional challenges. Different types of garbage require different cleaning methods and tools, which increases the complexity of cleaning work.

Numerous Facilities

There are a large number of public facilities set up in parks and gardens, such as benches, streetlights, signs, flower beds, fountains, etc. These facilities are densely distributed and the surrounding areas are prone to accumulating garbage, but traditional cleaning methods are difficult to conduct comprehensive and in-depth cleaning around these facilities, which can easily form cleaning blind spots. At the same time, it is necessary to avoid damaging these facilities during the cleaning process, which places high demands on the flexibility and operational accuracy of the cleaning equipment.

Principles and Types of Floor Scrubbers

Industrial floor scrubber machine mainly scrubs the floor by rotating the brush disc. At the same time, a high-pressure water spray system is used to evenly spray clean water on the ground, softening stubborn stains. Then, the sewage and garbage are collected together into the sewage tank through water suction, thus achieving deep cleaning of the ground. 

In addition, floor scrubber machine industrial can be divided into manual floor scrubbers and driving floor scrubbers. The hand pushed floor scrubber is compact in size and flexible in operation, suitable for cleaning narrow sidewalks, paths, squares, and densely populated areas in parks and gardens. On the contrary, the driving floor scrubber has a larger cleaning width and water tank capacity, high work efficiency, and is suitable for use in large areas such as squares, parking lots, and open park roads.

Advantages

Deep Cleaning

The brush plate and high-pressure water spray system of industrial floor scrubbers work together to effectively remove various stains on park and garden floors, such as gum residue, oil stains, moss, etc. In addition, even stubborn stains can be thoroughly removed by the floor scrubber with powerful scrubbing and washing power, enhancing the overall landscape effect of parks and gardens.

Protect Ground and Floor

The brush disc material of a industrial floor scrubber machine is soft. During cleaning process, it can automatically adjust the brushing force according to the material and condition of the floor, which can avoid scratch and wear on the floor. For common stone floors, tile floors, and wooden walkways in parks and gardens, industrial floor scrubbers can ensure cleaning effectiveness while maximizing the protection of the integrity of the floor.

Environment Protection

Compared to the traditional method of manually washing the floor with water, industrial floor scrubber machine can accurately control the amount of water sprayed during the cleaning process, avoiding the waste of water resources. At the same time, the floor scrubber recycles sewage and garbage into the sewage tank, preventing secondary pollution caused by sewage cross flow to the environment. Some advanced industrial floor scrubbers are also equipped with sewage purification treatment systems, which can preliminarily treat the recycled sewage, achieve the recycling of water resources, and further improve the utilization rate of water resources, in line with modern environmental protection concepts.

Working Principle and Type

Industrial street sweeper machine mainly sweep garbage to the vicinity of the main brush through edge brushes, and then the main brush rolls the garbage into the garbage bin, thereby achieving the cleaning and collection of ground garbage. The main sources of power for electric sweepers are electricity and fuel. With the increasing demand for environmental protection, the application of electric sweepers in parks and landscaping industries is becoming more and more widespread. According to their different structures and functions, industrial floor sweepers can be divided into manual floor sweepers, ride on floor sweepers and unmanned floor sweepers. 

The hand push sweeping machine is easy to operate and suitable for cleaning small areas or narrow spaces in parks and gardens, such as small children’s play areas in parks and around pavilions. This type of street sweeper is compact in size, which is making it easy to flexibly shuttle between crowds and facilities, and is relatively inexpensive with low maintenance costs.  

The ride on street sweeper has a large cleaning width and garbage bin capacity, and has high work efficiency. It is usually equipped with multiple side brushes and a high-power main brush, which can quickly and effectively clean up large areas of ground garbage. The driving sweeper is suitable for use in open areas such as main roads, large squares, and parking lots in parks. 

Advantages

Large Scale Cleaning

The cleaning width of industrial sweeping machines is relatively large. In general, it can reach 1.5-3 meters with a cleaning area of tens of thousands of square meters per hour. This gives it a significant advantage in large-scale garbage cleaning work in parks and gardens, as it can quickly collect fallen leaves, dust, paper, plastic bottles, and other garbage on the ground, greatly reducing cleaning time and improving work efficiency.   

Adapt to Multiple Types of Garbage

The design of the side brush and main brush of the sweeping machine can effectively deal with various types of garbage commonly found in parks and gardens. The edge brush can sweep scattered garbage, such as leaves, paper to the vicinity of the main brush. The main brush can roll heavier garbage such as beverage bottles, stones into the garbage bin. At the same time, some sweeping machines are also equipped with special garbage separation devices, which can preliminarily classify and collect different types of garbage for subsequent processing and recycling.

Reduce Labor Costs and Intensity

Using an industrial street sweeper can greatly reduce reliance on manual labor and lower labor costs. The traditional manual cleaning method requires a large number of cleaning personnel, and has high labor intensity and low work efficiency. The use of floor sweepers allows cleaning personnel to complete large-scale cleaning tasks by simply operating the machine, greatly reducing labor intensity. At the same time, due to the ability of the sweeping machine to complete cleaning work in a shorter period of time, the number of cleaning personnel required is correspondingly reduced, thereby reducing the labor cost expenditure of the park and garden management departments.

Improve Cleaning Efficiency

The working efficiency of industrial floor scrubber machine and industrial street sweepers is much higher than that of manual cleaning. Taking driving floor scrubbers and sweepers as examples, their cleaning area per hour can reach thousands of square meters or even larger, which is several times or even dozens of times more efficient than manual cleaning. And when multiple devices are operating simultaneously, comprehensive cleaning of the entire park or garden area can be achieved in a short period of time, greatly improving the timeliness of cleaning work.

Improve Cleaning Quality

Industrial floor scrubbers and sweepers can thoroughly clean the floor and environment. The floor scrubber can remove stubborn stains on the ground and achieve higher cleaning standards by using high-pressure water spray and rotating the brush disc. The sweeping machine can clean up fine dust, small particles of garbage, etc. together, avoiding possible omissions in manual cleaning.

Saving Cost

In the long run, using industrial floor scrubbers and sweeping machines can save cleaning costs. Although purchasing equipment requires a certain amount of upfront investment, the equipment has a long service life and relatively low maintenance costs in the later stages. Compared with manual cleaning, equipment can reduce labor input and lower labor costs. With the continuous rise of labor costs, the cost advantage of equipment will become more apparent.

Challenges and Solutions

Challenge

There are numerous obstacles such as benches, flower beds, and trash cans in parks and gardens, which require high obstacle avoidance capabilities for floor scrubbers and sweepers. If the obstacle avoidance system of the device is not sensitive enough, it may frequently collide with these facilities, causing damage. In addition, the terrain within the park may not be completely flat, with certain slopes and potholes, which can affect the driving stability and cleaning effectiveness of the equipment, and may even lead to equipment being trapped or overturned.
