- the release brushes 81 have a radial distance from one another and also an angular offset, so that via radially outer 82 dirty water corresponding to streams 91 can flow into the cleaning region 64 and can flow out via the suction inlets 65.
- release brushes 83 On the radial outer circumference of the plate-like cleaning head 60 are also still some semi-annular or ring segment-like release brushes 83, these release brushes 83 may be configured, for example, as a rubber lip or support contours.
- the release brush arrangement 80 projects further with its free ends or end faces in the direction of the surface to be cleaned or the surface O to be cleaned than the seal arrangement 55, namely, that the release brushes 81, 83 are in engagement with the surface O to be cleaned while the relatively fast-rotating seal assembly 55, ie Seal brush 57, preferably not in direct contact with the surface to be cleaned O passes.
- protrusions 77 designed in the manner of swords or chaff protrusions to be provided on the intake rotation body 51, which, as it were, revolve over the suction inlets 65 and there, if necessary, intercepting dirt collecting material.
- the Ansaugrotations Congress 151 has slightly fewer blades or contours 154 than the Ansaugrotations Congress 51, but is otherwise largely identical. Thus, therefore, the suction device 50 generates at the same speed usually slightly less suction than the suction 50th
- release brushes 181 are also in turn arranged at a rotational angle distance and a radial distance from each other.
- three rings of release brushes 181 are provided, which are each arranged like a fan one behind the other and radially next to each other.
- release brushes 183 Radially outside, i. on the outer circumference of the cleaning head 160, so-called entangled release brushes 183 are provided.
- the release brushes 183 are designed essentially in the manner of a circle segment. Free end faces of the release brushes 183 are crescent-shaped. The free end faces of the release brushes 183 have with respect to the top wall 88 continuously rising or falling distances.
- the release brushes 183 scoop dirt in the direction of the interior of the cleaning head 160, that is to say to the suction inlets 65.
- the suction unit 27 is driven via a gear so that it has a different rotational speed and / or direction of rotation than the suction device 50 or the intake rotational body 51.
