A vehicular sweeping machine includes a frame and a broom assembly that is mounted to the frame. The broom assembly includes a broom enclosure and a broom having a generally cylindrical tube with attached bristles that is mounted in the broom enclosure and adapted to rotate about a generally horizontal axis. The broom assembly also includes a material presentation system that is adapted to move material on the roadway into contact with the broom in the form of a windrow that is located generally in front of the center of the broom assembly. The sweeping machine also includes a broom conveyor having a lower end that is disposed within the broom enclosure.

A cantilevered debris plow comprising: a) A housing having a first end and a second end, wherein said first end is open for discharge of debris and said second end is closed for input of debris: b) A mounting plate configurable for attachment to a prime mover is attached to said housing, wherein said mounting plate is positioned between said first end and said second end of said housing and wherein the distance from said first end to said mounting plate is less than the distance from said second end to said mounting plate; and; c) A debris engager positioned in said housing to engage and convey debris from said first end to said second end of said housing for discharge.

A hydraulic system for a working machine includes first and second hydraulic actuators actuated by hydraulic fluid delivered by a hydraulic pump, a first flow rate controller to control a first supply flow rate of hydraulic fluid supplied to the first hydraulic actuator to match a first required flow rate, a second flow rate controller to control a second supply flow rate of hydraulic fluid supplied to the second hydraulic actuator to match a second required flow rate, and a special flow rate control system to, if a sum of the first and second required flow rates is greater than a maximum delivery flow rate of the hydraulic pump, reduce the first supply flow rate to allow the second supply flow rate to approach the second required flow rate.

A cold planer is disclosed. The cold planer includes a frame and a set of ground engaging members disposed adjacent to a rear end of the frame. The cold planer further includes a rotor disposed adjacent to the set of ground engaging members and configured to engage with a work surface. The cold planer further includes a rotary broom operatively coupled to the frame adjacent to the rear end thereof and disposed behind the rotor to sweep residual material from the work surface.

A working machine includes a work attachment connection arrangement configured to operationally connect to the working machine a work attachment provided with a work tool; and a control system configured to control the operation of the working machine and to control the operation of the work attachment. The working machine further includes: at least a first electric motor; a first rechargeable battery; an electric power circuit connecting the first electric motor and the first rechargeable battery, wherein the work attachment connection arrangement includes a first electrical connector, wherein the first electric connector is configured to be connected to a corresponding electrical connector connected to an auxiliary rechargeable battery.

A broom assembly for a vehicle includes a frame, a broom core axle rotatably coupled to the frame and defining an axis around which a broom rotates, an actuator coupled to the frame and positioned to raise and lower the axle relative to the frame, and a controller. The controller has an output for adjusting the actuator and an input for receiving information from a sensor. To account for the estimated wear, the controller is configured to use the received information to automatically lower the axle over a period of operation and use the sensor input to controllably adjust the actuator to a position setpoint changing over the period of operation. After operation, the controller is configured to use the sensor input to determine a current position, add an offset to the current position to achieve a new sensor target setpoint, and use the new setpoint to adjust the output.

Disclosed embodiments include implements with a linkage and suspension configured to provide downward pressure on tool to allow it to maintain a desired level of contact with a work surface. An adjustable biasing member such as an air bag provides upward pressure on the linkage to reduce downward pressure on the work surface from the tool. Shock absorbers can also be included to hold the linkage in place and limit bouncing of the tool when it is being transported.

A curb brush device for sweeping a newly formed curb includes a frame for attachment to a vehicle such that the frame extends forwardly from the vehicle. The frame includes a frame attachment bracket and a rail coupled to the frame attachment bracket. A brush arm is coupled to the rail and is extendable laterally from the rail. A brush is coupled to the brush arm. The brush is rotatable for sweeping a surface laterally offset from the vehicle.

An outdoor cleaning device configured to clean outdoor surfaces using a variety of fluids and techniques. The outdoor cleaning device includes a brush head, a motor and a transmission for providing a driving force to the brush head, a fluid tank for storing a fluid (e.g., a cleaning solution or detergent), and a controller for controlling mixing (or not mixing) the fluid stored in the fluid tank during operation of the outdoor cleaning device. The controller may enable fluid from the cleaning tank to be mixed with a second fluid (e.g., water) prior to being dispensed via at least one nozzle. The at least one nozzle may be secured to a guard cover via grooves on an inner guard cover and an outer guard cover. The nozzle(s) enables the distribution of cleaning fluids in various directions, enhancing the brush head's cleaning capability.
