ICE RINK RESURFACING MACHINE

摘要

The object of the invention is an ice-maintenance machine, which includes a steerable vehicule (2), a water tank (15, 16), a platform (4) for icy slush, an ice-maintenance unit (1) propelled by the vehicle, and a removal conveyor (3) for transferring the icy slush from the ice machining unit (1) to the platform (4) and in which the vehicle (2) includes a chassis (5), front and rear axles (8, 11) with wheels (27, 28), a motor (24), and transmission devices connected to the axles including a cardan axle (22) between them and a distribution gearbox (23). A low structure is achieved when the chassis (5) is formed of a box structure, which itself forms the water tank (15, 16), and that the centre of the chassis includes a longitudinal channel (7) for the cardan axle (22) and the distribution gearbox (23).
