Mobile cleaning platform for glass roof, type KB-DW-WB, span width 20 m
Structure: Office building, Deutsche Bundesbahn (German Federal Railway), Duisburg
Light aluminium structures of this type greatly enhance the reach of cleaning platforms while simultaneously adapting to the contour of the glass roof structures. The mechanical drive is provided over a manual lever in the centre of the platform over a special cardan shaft universal joint system that engages with the traverses of both the access equipments. The traverses are equipped with self-acting spring pressure brake operated by a foot pedal. A cleaning platform, based on the same design principle as the outer access equipment has also been provided, for cleaning the glass roof from the inside.
