Description

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0017] FIGS. 1 to 4 are schematic and also sequential views indicating the arrangement and fitting out of a preferred embodiment of the accessory for a polishing machine of the present invention.

DESCRIPTION OF A PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

[0018] The accessory for a polishing machine of the present invention is designed and is suitable for the incorporation thereof in a polishing machine of those already known in the state of the art, and comprises a plurality of blades 1, as schematically shown in FIG. 1.

[0019] As is already known in the state of the art, said polishing machines are fitted out for polishing floor by means of a rotational movement of their blades 1.

[0020] According to the present invention, the accessory for a polishing machine of the invention comprises abrasive means and magnetic means, wherein the abrasive means and the magnetic means are mutually fitted out so as to be mutually fixable, and the magnetic means in turn being fitted out for the incorporation thereof in the blades 1.

[0021] In this preferred embodiment, as can be seen in FIGS. 2, 3, and 4, the abrasive means can be diamond-coated elements 2 and the magnetic means can be magnetized elements 3.

[0022] Furthermore, the magnetized elements 3 can be manually and reversibly incorporated and fixed as a result of the magnetic attraction thereof in the blades 1, so as to be finally incorporated and fixed in the blades 1 in the manner depicted in FIGS. 2 and 3, and before the fixing thereof with the diamond-coated elements 2.

[0023] After fixing the magnetized elements 3 in the blades 1, the diamond-coated elements 2 are manually fixed and positioned in the magnetized elements 3. This therefore results in the diamond-coated elements 2 being in turn incorporated in the blades 1 by means of said magnetized elements 3, as can be seen in FIG. 4.

[0024] To that end, in this depicted preferred embodiment, the magnetized elements 3 incorporate Velcro sheets 31, with the diamond-coated elements 2 in turn being fitted out for the connection thereof with said Velcro sheets 31.

[0025] According to the foregoing, as can be seen in FIG. 4, the diamond-coated elements 2 are fixed in the Velcro sheets 31 of the magnetized elements 3 already arranged previously in the blades 1.

[0026] In this way, the diamond-coated elements 2 are incorporated in the blades 1 by means of said magnetized elements 3.

[0027] As a result, the diamond-coated elements 2 are finally incorporated in the blades 1, as depicted in FIG. 4, so that the blades 1 are therefore finally fitted out and have suitable arrangement and movement capacity to allow floor polishing by means of the diamond-coated elements 2 which have been incorporated therein.

[0028] In other different preferred embodiments of the accessory for a polishing machine of the present invention, first, the magnetized elements 3 and diamond-coated elements 2 can be incorporated and fixed directly and mutually with respect to one another before the incorporation of the magnetized elements 3 in the blades 1, so as to thereby fix the magnetized elements 3 in the blades 1 thereafter, with the diamond-coated elements 2 thereby also being incorporated in the blades 1 by means of the magnetized elements 3.

[0029] Furthermore, in other preferred embodiments of the same accessory for a polishing machine of the invention, the magnetic means and the abrasive means can be and can come directly and mutually fixed, without having to fix them together manually, for example, both these means can come already mutually and directly fixed from their manufacture, distribution, and/or marketing.

[0030] In accordance with the foregoing, the accessory for a polishing machine of the present invention allows a simple, effective, and safe incorporation and/or replacement of abrasive means in a polishing machine for polishing floor.

[0031] The details, shapes, dimensions and other secondary elements, as well as the materials used in manufacturing the accessory for a polishing machine of the invention, may be suitably replaced with others that are technically equivalent and do not depart from the essential nature of the invention or from the scope defined by the claims included below.
