Sweeping device for working a track system
The invention relates to a sweeping device (8) for working a track (5) which is formed of rails (3) and sleepers (4), which sweeping device comprises a brush shaft (10) that consists of a plurality of shaft portions (11), is in the form of a hollow shaft, and has resilient sweeping elements (12) radially protruding from the shaft, the sweeping device being fastenable, via at least one adjustable vertical drive (23), to a vehicle (1) that can be driven on rails (3). According to the invention, at least one axis of rotation (24) of a shaft portion (11) can be adjusted via a control shaft (16) comprising control elements (17) that act externally on the shaft portion (11). This ensures an increase in sweeping power and thus economic efficiency of the machine together with an improvement in relation to the prior art in terms of quality of the sweeping pattern.
