Problems solved by technology

However the Mayer system is limited by its drive controls because the operator still has two machine controls, those are the steering member and the adjustments used to control the machine
Also, the maneuverability / maneuverability of the machine is limited by the pivoting of the wheels about a single axis

Abstract

A floor cleaning or burnishing machine has at least one motor controller that is electrically connected to an analog joystick control, right and left potentiometers, an electrical power source, and right and left electrical drive motors. The right motor is mechanically connected to a right rear steering drive wheel and the left motor is mechanically connected to a left rear steering drive wheel. Rotational speed and direction of each rear wheel is independently controlled, by way of the joystick in cooperation with respective potentiometers, in either a forward or reverse direction. At any given time, each potentiometer controls a respective motor controller which individually controls the rotational speed and direction of a respective wheel, thereby each wheel is capable of rotating in an opposite direction at a different speed to the other wheel. To slow the floor cleaning or burnishing machine down, regenerative braking is utilized by operating the motors as generators.

Description

[0001] related application [0002] Pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 119(e), this application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application Serial No. 61 / 641,932, filed May 3, 2012, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety middle. technical field [0003] The present invention relates to a floor cleaning or polishing machine and more particularly to precise control of a floor cleaning or polishing machine using a joystick. Background technique [0004] Currently, floor cleaning machines and especially battery powered automatic floor cleaning machines are walk-behind or ride-on machines. Floor cleaning machines perform many functions, including vacuuming, sweeping, sanding, stripping, scrubbing, and carpet cleaning. In general, battery powered automatic floor cleaning machines employed in the floor care industry are typically used to maintain larger areas of the floor. [0005] Although this type of machine is used to maintain a large floor area, these ...
