An attachment for a mobile handling device is configured for processing walls or ceilings. The attachment comprises a mounting unit that is arranged to be supported at a mounting interface of the handling device, a processing head that is arranged to be equipped with at least one tool for material-removing processing or smoothing processing, and a compensation arrangement that is arranged between the mounting unit and the processing head and that defines a longitudinal axis. The mounting unit provides at least two pivot positions for the attachment that are offset from one another. The processing head is movable relative to the mounting unit in a longitudinal direction along the longitudinal axis. The compensation arrangement is configured to provide a defined contact pressure force for the processing head in a defined operating range along the longitudinal axis towards the surface to be processed.

A rotational control structure of a pneumatic tool includes a housing provided with a cylinder unit. The cylinder unit has a bottom wall with two through holes and a guide post extending outwardly. The guide post has a gas passage and a gas outlet. The guide post is closely connected with a rotatable control ring leaning against the bottom wall. A sealing ring is provided between the bottom wall and the guide post. The control ring has a control passage therein. The control ring is rotatable for the control passage to communicate with one of the through holes of the bottom wall, thereby controlling the forward/reverse rotation of the pneumatic tool.

A method for breaking in the surface condition of an asphalt test track for vehicles, comprising: modifying the condition of the surface of the test track with a treatment machine; placement on the treatment machine (1) of at least one rotary abrasive disc (4); and moving the treatment machine on the test track so as to reduce the friction coefficient to achieve a friction level corresponding to that of a broken-in track.

A system for treating a surface of a structure includes a wheeled vehicle that is movable along a surface and includes at least one surface treatment device.

A portable rasping platform for rasping a top surface of a wall panel includes a plurality of adjustable leveling supports, a pair of support rails, and a drum rasp assembly. The drum rasp assembly includes a drum rasp, a motor coupled to the drum rasp and configured to rotate the drum rasp at a suitable speed, and a truss frame supporting the drum rasp and configured to roll along the pair of support rails. The pair of support rails are configured to be positioned on the plurality of adjustable leveling supports arranged in parallel a certain space apart, and the plurality of adjustable leveling supports are configured to support the wall panel. The drum rasp is configured to pass over and treat the top surface of the wall panel as the drum rasp assembly is displaced along the pair of support rails.

An apparatus for surface finishing includes a robot and an end effector. The end effector includes a compliance wrist having an axis of movement and coupled to the robot and a grinder tool coupled to the compliance wrist. The robot is configured to controllably position the end effector in three-dimensional space. The compliance wrist is configured to bias the grinder tool to a biased position relative to the robot and enable the grinder tool to move relative to the robot in response to an external force acting upon the grinder tool.

A surfacing apparatus supported adjacent a substantially vertical surface of a structure for applying an even and uniform texture to the surface of the structure using a selectively adjustable force exerted on a texturing means to engage the surface of the structure. The surfacing apparatus is suited for horizontal and vertical movement in controlled prescribed paths under controlled and prescribed pressure from the adjustable tensioning means.

A grinding machine, manually displaceable on a track in a longitudinal direction of the track, for grinding rails of the track. The grinding machine includes a support frame which is designed for rolling on the rails via guide rollers and which carries an energy module and a work module. The work module has a pivotable grinding unit. The grinding unit includes an electric motor and a grinding tool powered by the same. The grinding unit is supported in a motor frame for pivoting about a longitudinal axis, and the motor frame is adjustably mounted relative to the support frame.

A method and apparatus is provided for treating a floor surface with zero-tolerance edging. The apparatus includes a frame and wheels mounted to the frame so the frame can travel over the floor surface. The apparatus also includes a motor mounted to the frame and a head assembly including a bottom plate. The bottom plate is operatively coupled to the motor so that the bottom plate is configured to rotate about a first axis. The bottom plate is positioned such that a tooling plate mounted to the bottom plate is configured to treat the floor surface including an edge of the floor surface intersecting a wall surface.
