Description

MAQUINA PARA LA LIMPIEZA DE FACHADAS OBJETO DE LA INVENCIÓN. La siguiente invención, según se expresa en el enunciado de la presente memoria descriptiva, consiste en una máquina para la limpieza de fachadas, la cual es de utilidad preferentemente para la limpieza de fachadas de edificios construidas en materiales tales como vidrio y mármol, aunque también es de utilidad para otros tipos de materiales, de forma que la máquina realiza la limpieza de la fachada desde la calzada, siendo manejada por un único operario que se encuentra al lado de la máquina, con la gran ventaja que ello representa. MACHINE FOR CLEANING FAÇADES OBJECT OF THE INVENTION. The following invention, as expressed in the statement of the present specification, consists of a machine for cleaning facades, which is preferably useful for cleaning facades of buildings constructed of materials such as glass and marble, but also It is useful for other types of materials, so that the machine performs the cleaning of the facade from the roadway, being managed by a single operator that is next to the machine, with the great advantage that this represents.
Así, se evita que el operario que controla la limpieza de la fachada deba realizarla manualmente, desplazándose por toda la superficie de la misma, por los medios convencionales, y realizando la limpieza manualmente.Thus, it is avoided that the operator who controls the cleaning of the facade must do it manually, moving through the entire surface of the facade, by conventional means, and performing the cleaning manually.
Otra importante ventaja viene dada por el hecho de que se obtiene una perfecta limpieza con un coste mínimo.Another important advantage is given by the fact that a perfect cleaning is obtained with a minimum cost.
La máquina para la limpieza de fachadas presenta un sistemas telescópico que se desplaza, en la operación de limpieza, preferentemente de arriba hacia abajo a lo largo de toda la fachada, de forma que el operario dirige y controla los movimientos de la máquina en la ejecución de la limpieza.The machine for cleaning facades has a telescopic system that moves, in the cleaning operation, preferably from top to bottom along the entire facade, so that the operator directs and controls the movements of the machine in execution of the Clean.
CAMPO DE APLICACIÓN. La máquina para la limpieza de fachadas que se presenta es de aplicación, preferentemente, para la limpieza de fachadas, construidas en materiales tales como vidrio y mármol, aunque es de aplicación para la limpieza de fachadas construidas en otros materiales, así como puede ser de aplicación en la limpieza de elementos ornamentales, como obeliscos, rótulos, vallas publicitarias y otro tipo de carteles. ANTECEDENTES DE LA INVENCIÓN.SCOPE. The machine for cleaning facades presented is preferably applicable for cleaning facades, built in materials such as glass and marble, although it is applicable for cleaning facades built in other materials, as well as it can be Application in the cleaning of ornamental elements, such as obelisks, signs, billboards and other posters. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Convencionalmente, las fachadas de los edificios construidos de materiales tales como vidrio, presentan la necesidad de efectuar su limpieza para mantenerlas con una estética apropiada, debiendo ejecutarse dicha limpieza con una cierta asiduidad. Así, dada la necesidad de efectuar la limpieza de las fachadas de los edificios construidos en vidrio con cierta asiduidad, los edificios así construidos arquitectónicamente, suelen disponer de las conocidas góndolas, en las que se monta el operario que debe realizar la limpieza de los cristales. De esta forma, las góndolas se constituyen por un habitáculo que queda colgado por unas sirgas respecto de unos brazos superiores que quedan montados en la parte superior del edificio con posibilidad de desplazarse a lo largo de la fachada a limpiar, de forma que el operario montado en la góndola desplaza la misma a lo largo y alto del edificio hasta limpiar toda la superficie.Conventionally, the facades of buildings constructed of materials such as glass, have the need for cleaning to maintain them with an appropriate aesthetic, such cleaning must be performed with a certain frequency. Thus, given the need to clean the facades of the buildings constructed in glass with certain assiduity, the buildings thus constructed architecturally, usually have the well-known gondolas, in which the operator who must clean the windows is mounted. In this way, the gondolas are constituted by a passenger compartment that is hung by some ropes with respect to some upper arms that are mounted on the upper part of the building with the possibility of moving along the facade to be cleaned, so that the operator mounted in the gondola it moves along the top and top of the building until the entire surface is cleaned.
Esta forma de limpieza presenta el inconveniente de que el coste económico de todo el sistema de la góndola es elevado por lo que la inversión económica es importante, a lo que se debe añadir el coste de mantenimiento. Así, dado que la limpieza se realiza manualmente, al ser grandes superficies acristaladas, el tiempo invertido y por lo tanto la mano de obra es grande, representando un importante coste económico, que debe añadirse a la inversión inicial y mantenimiento citado anteriormente. Además, con esta forma de limpieza se presenta el riesgo de accidentes laborales, de manera que con todos estos inconvenientes la estética arquitectónica se ve coartada ya que los profesionales que diseñan y proyectan las edificaciones pueden llegar a ser reacios a incorporar ciertos elementos estéticos en sus diseños. En definitiva, en el mercado no existe máquina alguna que facilite la tarea de limpieza de las fachadas acristaladas, y así el operario realiza, montado en la góndola, la limpieza de forma manual al aplicar agua con los correspondientes aditivos y eliminar el agua por medio de un cuerpo de goma solidario de un mango de asido. Además, con esta forma de limpieza se presenta también el inconveniente de que en las juntas de unión de los cristales se suele acumular suciedad, por ser difícil su limpieza convencional, llegando a provocar que el agua de lluvia arrastre dicha suciedad escurriéndose por los cristales, ensuciándolos considerablemente, perdiendo la fachada su estética, lo que si sucede recién limpiada la misma, debe volverse a limpiar con el incremento de coste que se produce en estos casos.This form of cleaning has the disadvantage that the economic cost of the entire gondola system is high, so that the economic investment is important, to which the maintenance cost must be added. Thus, since the cleaning is done manually, as large glazed surfaces are, the time invested and therefore the labor is large, representing an important economic cost, which must be added to the initial investment and maintenance mentioned above. In addition, with this form of cleaning the risk of occupational accidents is presented, so that with all these inconveniences the architectural aesthetic is curtailed since the professionals who design and project the buildings can become reluctant to incorporate certain aesthetic elements in their designs In short, there is no machine on the market that facilitates the task of cleaning the glass facades, and thus the operator performs, mounted on the gondola, cleaning manually by applying water with the corresponding additives and eliminating water by of a rubber body integral with a handle. In addition, with this way of cleaning there is also the disadvantage that dirt joints are usually accumulated in the junction joints of the crystals, since conventional cleaning is difficult, causing rainwater to drag said dirt through the crystals, dirtying them considerably, losing the aesthetic façade, which if it happens freshly cleaned, must be cleaned again with the increase in cost that occurs in these cases.

En la presente memoria se describe una máquina para la limpieza de fachadas, que comprende una estructura móvil manual o automáticamente, que incorpora un sistema telescópico de elevación, en el que se montan, en su extremo libre, los medios de limpieza controlados por un sistema de control, gobernado por el operario que dirige la operación de limpieza. La estructura móvil es susceptible de incorporar un depósito independiente de agua, provisto de una conducción hasta los medios de limpieza de la máquina, controlando el aporte y presión de agua por el sistema de control, de forma que se podrá controlar el caudal de agua aportado y la presión de la misma. Asimismo, la estructura móvil es susceptible de incorporar unos medios para permitir una conexión a la red general de conducción de agua para su suministro por medio de la correspondiente conducción hasta los medios de limpieza de la máquina, controlando el sistema de control el aporte de agua. La estructura móvil incorpora un compresor por una conducción que conduce aire a presión hasta los medios de limpieza de la máquina, controlando el aporte y presión del fluido por el sistema de control. Asimismo, la máquina puede incorporar una conexión a la fuente externa de suministro de aire a presión. El sistema de control permitirá en todo momento efectuar la operación de limpieza de la forma deseada, pudiendo controlar el aporte de agua y aire, así como el del propio sistema de elevación y descenso del sistema telescópico que monta los medios de limpieza.DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION This report describes a machine for cleaning facades, comprising a mobile structure manually or automatically, which incorporates a telescopic lifting system, in which the cleaning means controlled by a system are mounted at its free end of control, governed by the operator who directs the cleaning operation.

The control system will allow the cleaning operation to be carried out in the desired way at all times, being able to control the supply of water and air, as well as the lifting and lowering system itself of the telescopic system that mounts the cleaning means.
El elemento telescópico superior del sistema telescópico, presenta un eje de giro para su desplazamiento hacia la fachada a limpiar, aproximando, hasta contactar con ella, los medios de limpieza, de forma que con el descenso del sistema telescópico se va efectuando la limpieza de la franja correspondiente desde la parte superior a la inferior. También podrá ser posible ejecutar la limpieza en sentido ascendente, con tal solo adaptar los medios de limpieza a dicha ejecución, aunque la forma más práctica es de arriba hacia abajo.The upper telescopic element of the telescopic system, has a rotation axis for its movement towards the facade to be cleaned, approaching, until contacting it, the cleaning means, so that with the descent of the telescopic system the cleaning of the telescope is carried out. corresponding strip from the top to the bottom. It may also be possible to perform the upstream cleaning, by simply adapting the cleaning means to that execution, although the most practical way is from top to bottom.
Asimismo, el elemento telescópico superior del sistema telescópico, presenta un movimiento giratorio rotacional respecto de su eje axial de 90° a ambos lados, permitiendo limpiar pequeñas superficies de fachada, ortogonales a la fachada principal a limpiar, de forma que si la fachada presenta pequeños entrantes, su limpieza se realiza sin mayor dificultad al adaptar el elemento superior telescópico portador de los medios de limpieza sin necesidad de desplazar la estructura móvil, ya que si el entrante es de mayor longitud bastará posicionar la estructura móvil adecuadamente para limpiarlo normalmente, esto si sin que el elemento telescópico superior deba rotar.Likewise, the upper telescopic element of the telescopic system has a rotational rotational movement with respect to its axial axis of 90 ° on both sides, allowing small façade surfaces to be cleaned, orthogonal to the main façade to be cleaned, so that if the façade has small Incoming, its cleaning is carried out without major difficulty when adapting the telescopic upper element carrying the cleaning means without moving the mobile structure, since if the recess is longer, it will be enough to position the mobile structure properly to clean it normally, this if without the upper telescopic element having to rotate.
Los medios de limpieza que incorpora el elemento telescópico superior del sistema telescópico, se definen por un rodillo cuya superficie está recubierta de un material retenedor de agua al que se aporta agua con los correspondientes aditivos de limpieza, un cuerpo tubular paralelo y superior al rodillo, provisto de una serie de orificios en su superficie y un cuerpo superior a ambos de caucho de ligera mayor longitud. Asimismo, los medios de limpieza que incorpora el elemento telescópico superior del sistema telescópico, pueden definirse por un cepillo de fibra de acero, filamentos o púas de distintos materiales y texturas, en función de la fuerza de abrasión o presión necesaria, al que se aporta agua con los correspondientes aditivos de limpieza, un cuerpo tubular paralelo superior al cepillo de longitud semejante dotado de una serie de orificios y un cuerpo superior a ambos de caucho de ligera mayor longitud.The cleaning means incorporating the upper telescopic element of the telescopic system are defined by a roller whose surface is covered with a water-retaining material to which water is supplied with the corresponding cleaning additives, a tubular body parallel and superior to the roller, provided with a series of holes in its surface and a body superior to both of rubber of slightly greater length. Also, the cleaning means incorporated by the upper telescopic element of the telescopic system can be defined by a steel fiber brush, filaments or spikes of different materials and textures, depending on the abrasion force or pressure required, to which it is provided. water with the corresponding cleaning additives, a parallel tubular body superior to the brush of similar length endowed with a series of holes and a body superior to both of rubber of slightly longer length.
En la operación de limpieza, el elemento superior telescópico gira hasta contactar el rodillo con la fachada a limpiar y en el descenso del sistema telescópico impregna de agua a la correspondiente zona de fachada en su giro sobre ella, provocando el aire a presión impulsado por los orificios del cuerpo tubular superior contra la fachada el desprendimiento y arrastre de la suciedad con el agua, colaborando el cuerpo superior de caucho, que en su contacto con la fachada arrastra el agua y la suciedad, según el tramo correspondiente a toda la altura de fachada.In the cleaning operation, the telescopic upper element rotates until the roller is contacted with the facade to be cleaned and in the descent of the telescopic system impregnated with water to the corresponding facade area in its turn on it, causing the pressurized air driven by the holes of the upper tubular body against the facade the detachment and dragging of the dirt with the water, collaborating the upper body of rubber, which in its contact with the facade drags water and dirt, according to the section corresponding to the entire height of facade.
El rodillo que impregna de agua con los correspondientes aditivos la fachada, es susceptible de presentar en su superficie unas largas hebras retenedoras de agua, de forma que en su giro golpea la superficie de fachada a limpiar, incorporando, lógicamente, el correspondiente cuerpo tubular que impele aire a presión y el cuerpo de caucho que arrastra el agua y la suciedad.The roller that impregnates the façade with the corresponding additives is capable of presenting long water-retaining strands on its surface, so that in its turn it hits the façade surface to be cleaned, logically incorporating the corresponding tubular body that It impels air under pressure and the rubber body that drags water and dirt.
El sistema telescópico es susceptible de incorporar un eje de giro del elemento telescópico inferior permitiendo abatir el sistema telescópico que quedará paralelo y próximo a aquellas fachadas que presenten una cierta inclinación, de manera que así no solo se pueden limpiar fachadas de superficie vertical, sino aquellas que presenten una cierta inclinación.The telescopic system is capable of incorporating an axis of rotation of the lower telescopic element allowing the telescopic system to be folded down and close to those facades that have a certain inclination, so that not only vertical surface facades can be cleaned, but those that present a certain inclination.

In view of the aforementioned figures and according to the numbering adopted, we can observe how the machine 1 for cleaning facades 2, is in proximity to it, so that the machine 1 is constituted by a mobile structure 3 movable manually or automatically, which incorporates a telescopic system 4 in whose upper part it has the cleaning means of the facade 2 and also, it is capable of incorporating a tank 5 for water storage and the corresponding cleaning additives, and levelers 6 to keep it in position during the cleaning operation, as well as the control system, both for the displacement of the mobile structure, and for the execution of the different functions to be performed.
Las fachadas a limpiar, son preferentemente aquellas que están construidas de vidrio, aunque es de utilidad para la limpieza de fachadas, construidas en otros materiales tales como mármol, de forma que estando la estructura móvil 3 estática en la calzada, un único operario maneja la máquina para poder realizar la operación de limpieza, y así la limpieza se ejecutará preferentemente al desplegar el sistema telescópico hasta la parte superior de la fachada, y adosar los medios de limpieza a la misma, para que en el descenso del sistema telescópico lo medios de limpieza realicen esta según una franja a lo largo de toda su altura.The facades to be cleaned are preferably those that are constructed of glass, although it is useful for cleaning facades, constructed in other materials such as marble, so that the static mobile structure 3 is on the roadway, a single operator manages the machine to be able to carry out the cleaning operation, and thus the cleaning will be executed preferably when deploying the telescopic system to the top of the facade, and attaching the cleaning means to it, so that in the descent of the telescopic system the means of cleaning perform this according to a strip along its entire height.
De esta forma, la limpieza de la fachada se va realizando por franjas verticales desplazando la estructura móvil sucesivamente, conforme los tramos son limpiados hasta completar la limpieza de toda la superficie a limpiar, de manera que en cada una de dichas operaciones el sistema telescópico es desplegado hasta la parte superior, para descender hasta la parte inferior. Asimismo, la estructura móvil 3 es susceptible de incorporar un compresor o la toma al equipo correspondiente de aire como igualmente puede disponer de una toma a la conducción general de agua.In this way, the cleaning of the façade is carried out by vertical stripes moving the mobile structure successively, as the sections are cleaned until cleaning of the entire surface to be cleaned, so that in each of these operations the telescopic system is deployed to the top, to descend to the bottom. Likewise, the mobile structure 3 is capable of incorporating a compressor or the socket into the corresponding air equipment as it can also have a socket for the general conduction of water.
Los medios de limpieza, propiamente dichos, se encuentran montados en el elemento telescópico 12 superior, y los mismos se definen por un rodillo 7 provisto en su superficie de un material retenedor del agua que es conducida hacia él, por medio de un conducto 8 que le comunica con el depósito 5 o con la toma a la conducción general, a la que es susceptible de conectarse, así como por un cuerpo 9 tubular provisto de una serie de orificios en su superficie que queda conectado con el compresor, por un conducto 10 y un cuerpo 11 de caucho.The cleaning means, themselves, are mounted on the upper telescopic element 12, and they are defined by a roller 7 provided on its surface with a water-retaining material that is led thereto, by means of a conduit 8 which it communicates with the tank 5 or with the socket to the general conduit, to which it is susceptible to be connected, as well as by a tubular body 9 provided with a series of holes in its surface that is connected to the compressor, by a conduit 10 and a rubber body 11.
El elemento telescópico 12 superior, presenta un eje de giro 13 que permite su basculamiento hacia la fachada 2, con objeto de que el rodillo 7 y el cuerpo 11 de caucho contacten con ella, en tanto que el cuerpo 9 tubular queda próximo.The upper telescopic element 12 has a rotation axis 13 that allows it to swing towards the facade 2, so that the roller 7 and the rubber body 11 contact it, while the tubular body 9 is close.
De esta forma, para llevar a cabo la limpieza de la fachada 2 se procederá de la siguiente forma: Se desplegará el sistema telescópico 4 en proximidad a la fachada 2 a limpiar hasta la parte superior de la misma, y con el giro del elemento telescópico 12 respecto del eje 13, según la flecha A se adosará el rodillo 7 y el cuero 11 a la misma, quedando el cuerpo 9 tubular próximo a la fachada. A continuación bastará accionar el sistema de aporte de agua y aire, de forma que al impulsar el agua desde el depósito 5 o conducción general por el conducto 8 hasta el conducto 7 éste impregnará la superficie de fachada 12 correspondiente con el agua y aditivos que pueda incorporar, a la vez que por los orificios del cuerpo tubular 9 saldrá aire a presión contra la fachada 2, de manera que al plegar el sistema telescópico descenderá a lo largo de toda la fachada, materializando la limpieza de la franja correspondiente. Así, el aire que sale a presión del cuerpo tubular 9 arrastrará la suciedad y el agua en lo que colabora el cuerpo 11 de caucho que se desplaza por la fachada.In this way, to carry out the cleaning of the facade 2, the following procedure will be carried out: The telescopic system 4 will be deployed in proximity to the facade 2 to be cleaned up to the top of it, and with the rotation of the telescopic element 12 with respect to axis 13, according to arrow A, roller 7 and leather 11 will be attached thereto, the tubular body 9 being close to the facade. It will then be enough to operate the water and air supply system, so that when the water is boosted from the reservoir 5 or general conduit through the conduit 8 to the conduit 7 it will impregnate the corresponding facade surface 12 with the water and additives that may incorporate, at the same time that through the holes of the tubular body 9, pressurized air will escape against the facade 2, so that when folding the telescopic system it will descend along the entire facade, materializing the cleaning of the corresponding strip. Thus, the air exiting the tubular body 9 will drag the dirt and water in which the rubber body 11 that travels along the facade collaborates.
Al ejecutar la limpieza de la fachada 2 de la forma descrita, aunque en la fachada se presenten unas juntas 14 de unión entre los vidrios 15 en las citadas juntas no se acumulará la suciedad, dado que el aire a presión limpia las mismas, resultando un método de una total fiabilidad.When cleaning the facade 2 in the manner described, although in the facade there are joint joints 14 between the glasses 15 in said joints, dirt will not accumulate, since the pressurized air cleans them, resulting in Total reliability method.
Por otra parte, dado que la limpieza de la fachada 2 es ejecutada automáticamente manipulando la máquina un único operario desde la calzada, no hay riesgo alguno de accidente laboral, no resulta un trabajo penoso y además el mismo se desarrolla con una gran rapidez, en contraposición con los medios convencionales que precisan mucho tiempo y mano de obra. Lógicamente, el rodillo 7 recubierto de un material retenedor del agua, queda en posición horizontal y sobre él quedan sucesivamente el cuerpo 9 tubular de salida del aire a presión y el cuerpo 11 de caucho que por su contacto con la superficie a limpiar arrastra al agua y la suciedad. El rodillo 7 puede ser sustituido por otros útiles de limpieza tales como cepillos de fibra de acero, de filamentos o púas, de diferentes materiales y texturas de acuerdo con la superficie de fachada a limpiar. Asimismo, pueden incorporarse abrasivos para la limpieza de fachadas o elementos que así lo requieran. Por otra parte, el elemento telescópico 12 superior es susceptible de rotarse respecto de su eje axial según las flechas B 90° a ambos lados con objeto de poder limpiar pequeños entrantes de la fachada 2 sin ningún problema, tal como se observa en la figura 2 de ios diseños. Asimismo, el elemento telescópico 12 superior incorpora unos motores 16 y 17 para el accionamiento de los mecanismos correspondientes.On the other hand, since the cleaning of the façade 2 is automatically executed by manipulating the machine a single operator from the roadway, there is no risk of an accident at work, it is not a painful job and it also develops very quickly, in as opposed to conventional means that require a lot of time and labor. Logically, the roller 7, covered with a water-retaining material, remains in a horizontal position and on it the successively the tubular body 9 for exiting the pressurized air and the rubber body 11 are left, which, due to its contact with the surface to be cleaned, drags into the water. and dirt. The roller 7 can be replaced by other cleaning tools such as steel fiber brushes, filaments or spikes, of different materials and textures according to the facade surface to be cleaned. Also, abrasives can be incorporated for cleaning facades or elements that require it. On the other hand, the upper telescopic element 12 is capable of rotating with respect to its axial axis according to the arrows B 90 ° on both sides in order to be able to clean small recesses of the facade 2 without any problem, as seen in Figure 2 of the designs. Likewise, the upper telescopic element 12 incorporates motors 16 and 17 for actuating the corresponding mechanisms.
Mediante el sistema de control de la máquina se permite: a) desplazar automáticamente la estructura móvil para posicionarla a lo largo de toda la superficie de fachada 2 a limpiar. b) regular el aporte y caudal de agua hacia el rodillo 7. c) regular el aporte y presión de salida del aire desde el conducto 9 hacia la fachada, para arrastrar la suciedad y el agua en la limpieza. d) regular el giro del elemento telescópico 12 superior para que el rodillo 7 y el cuerpo 11 de caucho contacten con la fachada. e) regular el giro rotacional del elemento telescópico 12 superior. f) regular el giro del sistema telescópico según el eje de giro 18.The machine control system allows: a) to automatically move the mobile structure to position it along the entire facade surface 2 to be cleaned. b) regulate the supply and flow of water to the roller 7. c) regulate the supply and output pressure of the air from the conduit 9 towards the facade, to drag dirt and water in the cleaning. d) regulate the rotation of the upper telescopic element 12 so that the roller 7 and the rubber body 11 contact the facade. e) regulate the rotational rotation of the upper telescopic element 12. f) regulate the rotation of the telescopic system along the axis of rotation 18.
Tal como se observa en la figura 5 de los diseños, el rodillo 7 que impregna de agua la superficie de fachada a limpiar, puede disponer en su superficie unas largas hebras retenedoras de la agua, que en su giro topan contra la fachada, siendo los elementos restantes de los medios de limpieza, semejantes a los descritos.As can be seen in figure 5 of the designs, the roller 7 that impregnates the façade surface to be cleaned with water, can have long water-retaining strands on its surface, which in turn turn against the façade, being remaining elements of the cleaning means, similar to those described.
Una de las grandes ventajas que presenta la máquina descrita es que la limpieza de la fachada se realiza con una gran rapidez, ya que una vez desplegado el sistema telescópico y accionados los dispositivos precisos para la limpieza, bastará plegar el sistema telescópico para que con un movimiento continuo se desplace a lo largo de la fachada materializando la limpieza, repitiendo la operación a lo largo de toda la fachada. El sistema telescópico puede materializar por elementos desplegables verticalmente o por un sistema de tijera de manera que en el primer caso, las conducciones 8 y 10, así como los cables eléctricos, pueden quedar interiormente a los mismos.One of the great advantages of the described machine is that the cleaning of the façade is carried out very quickly, since once the telescopic system has been deployed and the precise cleaning devices are activated, it will be enough to fold the telescopic system so that with a Continuous movement moves along the facade materializing the cleaning, repeating the operation throughout the entire facade. The telescopic system can materialize by vertically deployable elements or by a scissor system so that in the first case, the conduits 8 and 10, as well as the electric cables, can be internally thereto.
Por otra parte, para permitir la limpieza de fachadas que presenten una cierta inclinación, el sistema telescópico presenta en su elemento inferior un eje de giro 18 que permite bascularlo para posicionarlo en paralelo a la fachada a limpiar actuando de la forma descrita. On the other hand, in order to allow the cleaning of facades that have a certain inclination, the telescopic system has in its lower element an axis of rotation 18 that allows it to be tilted to position it parallel to the facade to be cleaned acting in the manner described.
