Floor washing-drying machine
View Patent ↗A floor washing-drying machine includes a brush ( 2 ) adapted to scrub a floor ( 4 ) with a cleaning liquid in view of removing soil and dirt therefrom, and a wiping device ( 3 ) adapted to scrape the floor ( 4 ) in order to remove the dirty cleaning liquid therefrom. The wiping device ( 3 ) includes a front flap ( 5 ) and a rear flap ( 6 ) adapted to elastically and slidably engage the floor ( 4 ) so as to define a suction chamber ( 7 ) therebetween, with the suction chamber being fluidly connected with a suction device ( 8 ). A further elastic flap ( 10 ) is mounted to the wiping device behind the rear flap, and the width of the further flap is smaller than the width of the front and rear flaps ( 5, 6 ).
1. A floor washing-drying machine, comprising:
a brush adapted to scrub a floor with a cleaning liquid so as to remove soil and dirt therefrom; and
a wiping device adapted to scrape the floor in order to remove dirty cleaning liquid therefrom, said wiping device comprising a front flap and a rear flap adapted to elastically and slidably engage the floor so as to define a suction chamber therebetween, said suction chamber being fluidly connected with a suction device, said wiping device also comprising a further elastic flap arranged behind said rear flap and mounted on a support that is firmly joined to said wiping device, wherein a width of said further elastic flap is smaller than a width of said front and rear flaps, and wherein said further elastic flap is oriented obliquely relative to a forward moving direction of the machine.
2. A floor washing-drying machine according to claim 1 , wherein said further elastic flap forms a screen guarding a machine driver against splashes of detergent liquid.
3. A floor washing-drying machine, comprising:
a brush adapted to scrub a floor with a cleaning liquid so as to remove soil and dirt therefrom; and
a wiping device adapted to scrape the floor in order to remove dirty cleaning liquid therefrom, said wiping device comprising a front flap and a rear flap adapted to elastically and slidably engage the floor so as to define a suction chamber therebetween, said suction chamber being fluidly connected with a suction device, said wiping device also comprising a further elastic flap mounted to said wiping device and arranged behind said rear flap at a distance from said rear flap so as to spread a residual liquid into a film behind the machine, wherein a width of said further elastic flap is smaller than a width of said front and rear flaps,
wherein said further elastic flap is mounted on a support that is firmly joined to said wiping device, and said further elastic flap is oriented obliquely relative to a forward moving direction of the machine.
4. A floor washing-drying machine according to claim 3 , wherein said further elastic flap forms a screen guarding a machine driver against splashes of detergent liquid.
