Typically, sweeping vehicles have a gutter brush that sweeps the debris that lies in the road gutter. As most of the debris is located in the gutter, the effective operation of the gutter brush is important. The aim of this work is to study the performance of a type of gutter brush, the cutting brush, through a 3D dynamic (transient), large deflection finite element model developed by the authors. In this brush model, the brush mounting board is… More >
