Abstract: Provision is made for a rotating brush controlling apparatus (8) in a floor sweeping machine (1), comprising: a lifting device (15) suitable for applying a lifting force (15a) which is capable of lifting a rotating brush (8) to remove the same from a surface to be swept (7), and an actuating device-(16) which is suitable for applying a working force (16a) on command against the lifting force (15a), where the rotating brush (8) and the actuating device (16) are linked to each other and where moreover some adjusting devices (24) are provided, which are suitable both for optionally selecting the working force (16a) to selectively force the rotating brush (8) on the surface (7) to be swept, and for keeping the working force (16a) substantially constant in the presence of irregularities in the surface to be swept (7).

Abstract: A battery holding frame is provided for an electrically driven sweeping machine having one lower supporting face (4) for the battery (10), and lateral faces (5) to contain the same battery (10), which include a mobile lateral face (5a) rotatable between a first closed position across the first lower supporting face (4) and a second operating position substantially aligned with and adjacent to the lower supporting face (4) where rotatable elements (7) are provided on the mobile lateral face (5a), suitable for allowing the battery (10) to slide whenever the mobile lateral face (5a) is in an operating position.
