    This really should have a quick mechanism to lift and drop the brush to reduce wear when not in use. A servo motor that actuates a cam or lever to adjust rear wheel height would likely be the simplest way to go. Would still only need one switch.

    Pretty great. But why do you have to collect what you brush? Most of the hazards I see is gravel, with a bit of car debris and tree branches. Why not just brush it to the shoulder?

      Yes. That’s what the model without a hopper does. See bikelanesweeper.com

      @@bermchasin hello. We are finalizing prototypes with different brush types and motors ( to avoid the chain). We’ll then settle on final version and build preproduction units. This should all happen in coming weeks.

    sadly the thing that often causes isssues is the small things you cant see. Not leaves or rocks, but tiny little metal slivers and thorns and glass. This is a great invention if more people rode with it, but dont switch it off even when clean - as there could be small metal you just cant see.

      Attach a bar magnet, problem solved. Goatheads? Ride Gatorskins, goat heads are powerless against them.

    Why, not powerless, make them like the old-school mowers. Where is the wheels are rotating the brush is rotating.

    • @ecobikelanesweeper1609
      @ecobikelanesweeper1609  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      This would imply the brush rotation speed would be driven by the wheels rotation. This may cause sweeping issues when going very slow to pick up a lot of debris.

    • @joshbobst1629
      @joshbobst1629 ปีที่แล้ว

      I suspect that would draw as much power from the bicycle's battery, and a rider without motor assist would be unable to keep up with the load. Ever seen one of those street sweepers working at night, or at construction sites? They are using a lot more power than your car normally uses to turn that brush.

    I was thinking of how i could make one of these, maybe using my cargo trailer as a body to build on then i see this! Im in Los Angeles and we need these badly! I currently carry a dustpan and broom for glass but id pull this thing everyday, maybe link it up with a solar panel and solar generator.

      Correct but the design complexity and cost would be much higher.

    Dumping MORE plastic bags into the garbage stream. Great, not very eco at all!

    • @bermchasin
      @bermchasin ปีที่แล้ว

      I thought the same thing, far better to empty a hopper into a bigger bag, instead of constantly replacing the bag.

    • @vannomanno1

      in their blog, they show them using a bin without a plastic bag that they just dump out. no plastic bags needed.
