Abstract (en)

Side brush assembly (54) for a sweeping machine comprising a generally cup-shaped brush member (50) and a roller (39) associated therewith, a friction drive means (64, 65) between the roller and the cup-shaped brush member whereby on translational movement, across the surface to be swept, rotation of the roller is transmitted via the friction drive means to the brush member thereby causing rotation of the brush member. The brush assembly is particularly suitable for use in connection with a manual sweeping machine and it may be constructed and arranged so that the side brush assembly can be moved between a sweeping position and a non-sweeping position.
