lhisinvention relates to improvementsin carpet sweepers, particularly to the type which are self-adjusting to various thicknesses of nap and to the means for suspending the wheels of such sweepers.
A- self-adjusting type of sweeper is described in the application for Carpet Sweepers of Robert S. Wagner, Albert J. Duwe, and John M. Himes, Ser. No. 59,792, filed November 13, 1948. However, the wheel suspension of such sweeper may be somewhat noisy in operation and in the manufacture thereof requires (ct) fairly close tolerances to provide freedom of movement with out sloppy alinement and (b) considerable skill in assembly for proper adjustment.
It is an"objct of" this invention, therefore, to prance" a" self-adjusting "carpet sweeper which will be less'n'oisy in operation" and have a long usefu1'life.'-
'A'nother'object'of the invention is to provide a self-adjusting carpet sweeper which may be manufactured-without cliiiicult close tolerances anu -have freedom of movement withoutdestroyingstab'ility and proper'alin'ement o'fthe wheel axles.
Another object of theinvention is to provide a self-adjusting carpet sweeper which is easily assembled and adjusted and may be manufactured by-usingsimple and relatively inexpensive tools.
These objects are obtained by individually mounting each wheel on astud axle rigidly secured to a mounting member having a: circular peripheral portion the opposite surfaces of which are guided between two opposed surfacesto controllateral movement thereof and the circular edge of which contacts a ring of resilient noiseabsorbing material to control and limit the planar movement thereof. The opposed surfaces may consist of the end plate of the sweeper and a cover plate having an aperture accommodating the stud axle. Because of the relatively large area of the guiding surfaces totally surrounding the stud axle the tolerances need not be close in order to provide freedom of movement while maintaining stability and proper alinement of the axle. By so limiting the planar movement of the mounting member the noise of constant contact between it and the control member is eliminated. The action of a simply formed spring in urging the wheel toward driving engagement with the brush pulley is easily supplemented by the horizontal component of force created as such ring engages the periphery of the mounting member at a point above and outwardly of the axis of rotation of the wheel.

*such view showing the relative position of the The novel features, which are considered characteristic of the invention, are set forth with particularity in the appended claims. The inven tion itself, however, both as to its organization andits method of operation, together with additional objects andadvantages thereof, will best be understood from the following description of specific embodiments when read in connection with the accompanying drawings, inwhichz I Fig. l is a view in elevation of one end of a carpetsweeper embodying the present invention, with the end bell removed and with the left hand" wheel removed and its outline position shown in dotted line forthe sake of clarity i'nillustration,

Reference may be had to Patent No. 2,228,528, issued J anuary 14, 1941, toSwift Miller, for the description and co-' operative relationship of the standard parts of a" complete carpet sweeper; Reference mayalso be had to the a'forernentioned application for a" complete description of the self-adjusting er the carpet sweeper as it is used on thick or thin pile i carpets. For the purposes of this descriptiorl'it is only necessary to know that the pulley-engag ing force generated by the'wheel spring"issup-' plemented by a horizontal component of'force' created by the positive engagement between the Curved' peripheryon the axle mounting member and the resilient ringon the sweeper casing.
Referring tothe drawings by reference numerals;'the'carpetsweeper has an end plate l0 secured to a cover l2. The end plate may be covered by an end bell 14 (see Figs. 3 and 4) whichpartially encloses the floor wheels and 7 their supporting mechanism. Dust pans. l6 and rotatable brush l 8, with'its driving pulley 20, are
Each stud axle is secured to the central portion of a mounting member 26 in substantially the same way as the stud axle of said patent is secured to its stud axle supporting arm, such support including an annular groove in which the inner end of the wheel spring seats.
The mounting member 26 has a flat circular peripheral portion 28 offset from its central portion. The surfaces of such peripheral portion are guided between a surface on end plate i and the inner surface of a cover plate 30 to control the lateral movement of the member 26 and restrain it to substantially planar movement. The cover plate has a central opening 32 through which the central portion of the member 26 extends and in the confines of which it is freely movable. In the modification shown in Figs. 1 to 3, the outer surface of the end plate i0 is recessed as shown in Fig. 3 to accommodate both the peripheral portion 28 and the cover plate 30 so that when assembled the outer surface of such plate is substantially in the plane of the outer surface of the end plate I0. The cover plate 30 fits snugly within the edge of the recess to prevent planar movement thereof and is held against lateral displacement by rivets 34 secured to the end plate In with their heads overlapping and engaging the edges of the cover plate 30 at spaced places. It is desirable to have a smooth surface on the bottom of the recess to engage the surface of the peripheral portion 28. The depth of that part of the recess in which the cover plate 30 seats is proportioned to the depth of the recess which guides the portion 28 to provide suflicient clearance to allow the member 26 to have free planar movement. As the member 26 is guided bya relatively large surface surrounding and spaced from the central portion thereof, the tendency for it to cant or tilt and thus bind and let the axle become misaligned is effectively eliminated without holding a close tolerance.
The planar movement of the mounting member 26 is constrained in all directions by a ring 36 preferably made of oil-resistant, synthetic rubber, or other type of resilient, noise-absorbing material. The ring 36 is partly mounted in a recessed annular groove in the wall of the end plate It between the bottom of the groove and the cover plate 30 and is thicker than the peripheral portion 28. This assures a good surface contact between such ring and the edge of such portion. The internal diameter of the ring 36 is sufficiently larger than the external diameter of the peripheral portion 28 to provide enough planar motion to allow the member 26 to shift far enough with respect to the casing and brush to accommodate normal operation. The diameter of the central opening 32 is large enough so that its edge will not contact the central portion of the mounting member 26 as such member shifts in normal operation. Hence, all contacts limiting the planar movement of member 26 are made between such member and ring 36 and thus noise is avoided.
The center of the ring 36 is positioned inwardly of the arcuate path defined by the axis of the stud axles 24 as the wheels move up and down in contact with the pulley 20 from high to low position. Hence, when the casing is moved downwardly with respect to the wheels to the position shown in Fig. 2, the contact between the peripheral portion 28 and the inner surface of ring 36 is established substantially at the point marked T in Fig. 2. As shown in Fig. 2, if a vertical force of the magnitude indicated by the vector line V were exerted on the ring 36 at point T, it would produce on the peripheral portion 28 a horizontal force substantially equal to the magnitude indicated by the vector line H. This occurs because the line joining the point T and the center of the axle 24 slopes downwardly and inwardly to the vertical about an angle of approximately 15". Thus the contact between the ring and the mounting member provides a pulleyengaging force supplemental to that of the wheel spring during operation of the sweeper. Relatively simple jigs may be used to form the groove for the ring 36 in the predetermined place for obtaining the foregoing relationship and no mistakes will thereafter result during assembly and the use of skill in assembly and adjustment is not required.
Each wheel 22 is urged in a downward and inward direction by a simplified curved spring 38 having one end resting in the annular groove on mounting member 26 and the other end secured by a pivot 46 to the end plate (0 at the place indicated in Figs. 1 and 2. Because of the planetary floating wheel movement and the supplemental pulley-engaging force, such spring may be relatively light and of the simplified design shown.
In the modification shown in Fig. 4, the cover plate 42 is formed with an annular groove 44 which accommodates the ring 46 in substantially the same way that ring 36 is accommodated in the groove in the end plate. The cover plate 42 like the cover plate 30 also has a central opening All which provides ample operating space for the central portion of the wheel mounting member 26. This type of construction eliminates the necessity of grooving and recessing the end plate l0. However, a jig must be provided to properly position the cover plate 42 at the time it is secured by suitable means to the end plate. The configuration of the cover plate 42 also predetermines and provides the necessary clearance to let the circular peripheral portions 48 have free planar movement.
Although only several embodiments of the invention are shown and described herein, it will be understood that this application is intended to cover such other changes or modifications as come within the spirit of the invention or scope of the following claims.
