Floor surfacing machine
First Claim
1. A floor surfacing machine comprising:
- a frame carried by a first wheel and a second wheel, the first wheel configured to be driven by a first wheel drive motor and the second wheel configured to be driven by a second wheel drive motor;
a first motor and a second motor carried by the frame;
a handle arrangement carried by the frame;
a planetary head rotatably mounted to the frame and configured to be driven by the first motor;
at least one satellite surfacing head rotatably mounted to the planetary head and configured to be driven by the second motor and treat a floor surface;
a first control unit coupled to a portion of the floor surfacing machine and configured to enable independent operation of each of the planetary head, the at least one satellite surfacing head, the first wheel, and the second wheel; and
a remote control panel configured to enable an operator to independently operate each of the planetary head, the at least one satellite surfacing head, the first wheel, and the second wheel remotely, the remote control panel comprising a second control unit configured to communicate with the first control unit to enable remote, independent control of each of the planetary head, the at least one satellite surfacing head, the first wheel, and the second wheel.

Abstract
The present invention relates to a floor surfacing machine (1) comprising a frame (2) that is carried by a first wheel (3) and a second wheel (4). The floor surfacing machine (1) further comprises a first motor (6), a handle arrangement (7), at least one planetary head (15) that is rotatably mounted to the frame (2) and at least one satellite surfacing head (19, 20, 21) that is rotatably mounted to the planetary head (15), where the first motor (6) is arranged to propel the planetary head (15). The floor surfacing machine (1) comprises a first control unit (10), and a remote control panel (11) which in turn comprises a second control unit (12) that is arranged to communicate with the first control unit (10). The floor surfacing machine (1) also comprises a second motor (22) that is arranged to propel the satellite surfacing heads (19, 20, 21) such that the planetary head (15) and the satellite surfacing heads (19, 20, 21) are independently operable.
