Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0595007A1] In order, in the case of a floor cleaning device (10) having a mobile frame (12) and at least one cleaning tool (40), which engages on a floor surface, is rotatable, picks up dirt and/or rubbish from the floor surface (26) and transports it to a collecting container, and also having a drive element for rotating the cleaning tool, to achieve a cleaning of floor surfaces rendered unclean by coarse pieces of dirt or rubbish (64) which entails neither rapid wear of the cleaning tools nor high power consumption of the drive element, it is proposed that there be arranged, in the movement direction of the cleaning device in front of the first cleaning tool, a sweeping roller (52) which is held at a distance from the floor surface and sweeps coarse pieces of dirt and rubbish from the floor surface and whose axis of rotation is positioned substantially transversely to the movement direction of the cleaning device and approximately parallel to the floor surface. <IMAGE>
