The Important of Using Floor Sweepers

Table of Contents

Industrial floor sweeper is a machine used for cleaning the floors of industrial sites. It is mainly for sweeping away dust, debris, garbage and other debris. It sweeps the garbage on the ground to the vicinity of the main brush through the edge brush, and the main brush rotates to sweep up the garbage and roll it into the dust collection box. Some floor sweepers are also equipped with vacuum systems, which generate negative pressure through fans to suck dust and small particles into the dust collection box for better cleaning results.

The Principle of Industrial Floor Sweeper

Industrial floor sweeper is a machine used for cleaning the floors of industrial sites. It is mainly for sweeping away dust, debris, garbage and other debris. It sweeps the garbage on the ground to the vicinity of the main brush through the edge brush, and the main brush rotates to sweep up the garbage and roll it into the dust collection box. Some floor sweepers are also equipped with vacuum systems, which generate negative pressure through fans to suck dust and small particles into the dust collection box for better cleaning results.

Main Key Components

It mainly includes the drive motor, battery and engine. Firstly, the driving motor provides power for the movement of the sweeping machine. The power and torque of the driving motor may vary depending on the type and working requirements of the sweeping machine. Secondly, batteries or engines provide energy to drive motors and other components. Electric sweepers generally use rechargeable batteries like lithium batteries or lead-acid batteries, which have the advantages of cleanliness, quietness, and low maintenance costs.

In order to better understand the structure of the floor sweeping machine, taking the LVTONG 1950 floor sweeper as an example, its key components mainly include the following.

Control System

It mainly includes a controller and a power management system. The controller is mainly responsible for coordinating and controlling the operation of various components. It can receive information from sensors and control the walking route, cleaning mode, suction force of the sweeping machine according to preset programs and algorithms. Secondly, the power management system manages the power supply of the sweeping machine, including battery charging and discharging control, power monitoring. It ensures stable power support for the sweeping machine during operation.

Cleaning System

It mainly includes a sweeping brush and a vacuum system. The sweeping brush mainly includes a main brush and a side brush. The main brush is usually located in the center of the bottom of the sweeping machine and is a larger roller brush used to clean dust, garbage and other debris on the ground. The edge brush is installed on both sides or the front end of the sweeping machine. Moreover, its function is to clean the garbage at the corners of the wall, roadside and other edge positions into the working range of the main brush, which is improving the cleaning efficiency.

Secondly, the vacuum system mainly consists of a vacuum motor, a suction port, an air duct and a dust box. The vacuum motor generates strong suction force, which sucks dust, fine particles on the ground into the air duct through the suction port, and then collects the dust into the dustbin. Some high-end industrial vacuum cleaners may also be equipped with multi-stage filtration systems to improve the suction effect.

Power System

It mainly includes the drive motor, battery and engine. Firstly, the driving motor provides power for the movement of the sweeping machine. The power and torque of the driving motor may vary depending on the type and working requirements of the sweeping machine. Secondly, batteries or engines provide energy to drive motors and other components. Electric sweepers generally use rechargeable batteries like lithium batteries or lead-acid batteries, which have the advantages of cleanliness, quietness, and low maintenance costs.

Garbage Recycling Device

It mainly includes a dust box and a dust exhaust device. The dustbin is mainly used to collect garbage and dust during the cleaning process. Relatively speaking, the dust removal device is used to separate dust and air in the vacuum system and discharge clean air out of the sweeping machine. Dust removal devices typically include components such as cyclone separators, filter bags or filter cartridges.

Floor Sweepers Types

The same as floor scrubbers, sweeping machines are mainly divided into hand push sweepers and ride-on floor sweeper machines. The cleaning width also varies in size. In general, the cleaning area of a hand-held sweeper is relatively small, which is making it more suitable for small spaces. On the contrary, ride-on floor sweepers are suitable for cleaning large areas of ground, roads and streets.

There are also various power supply methods for floor sweepers, such as internal combustion engines, diesel engines, gasoline engines, liquefied petroleum gas, and battery power. In addition, there is a hybrid sweeping machine, which is powered by a combination of gasoline engine and battery.

Ride On Floor Sweeper

Industrial ride-on floor sweeper machine combines high performance and operational comfort. These machines are suitable for medium and large areas. It is typically used in commercial buildings, parking lots and large retail stores. Operators can comfortably sit and operate the machine, thereby improving productivity and reducing fatigue.
