Abstract (en)

The invention concerns a device for brushing a top surface. The device comprises a cylindrical body having brushing elements rotatable around an axis whereby the device is fastened such that the top surface and the device move relative to one another in a direction making a sharp pitch angle with the plane perpendicular to the axis. The brushing elements rotate the cylindrical body and have a wire tip length that extends outside the cylindrical body which wire tip length reduces springy by pressing the brushing elements against the top surface. The invention also concerns a train carriage and a vehicle provided with the device.
