摘要

Device for mechanically removing weeds from fixed ground surfaces (6) has at least one tool (3) rotating about an approximately vertical tool shaft (1) and pressed against the ground surface. The tool is positioned on a tilting hinge having a horizontal tilting axis (10) perpendicular to the tool shaft so that it tilts relative to a support (2) fixed on the tool shaft. The height of the tilting hinge relative to the ground surface can be adjusted using a tilting arm (11) directly held in a drag bearing (12) fixed on the support. Independent claims are also included for alternative devices. Preferred Features: The tool is divided by the tilting axis into a brush arm (8) and a weight arm (9) which is preferably lighter than the brush arm.
