How This Machine Works

The Chariot® iVacuum 24 ATV™ is a battery powered,
self-propelled, vacuum intended for commercial use.
The appliance vacuums debris and dirt from the carpet
and collects it in a disposable bag.
The machine's primary systems are the brush system,
vacuum system, and operator control system.
The function of the brush system is to brush the carpet.
The brush system consists of two cylindrical type
brushes, side brush, motors, brush deck, and controls.
The right side brush is used to sweep debris from along
edges into the path of the brush deck.The front
cylindrical brush sweeps debris backwards. The rear
brush sweeps debris forwards. Both cylindrical brushes
work to agitate the carpet and to route the debris up
into the debris tray assembly.
The function of the vacuum system is to vacuum fine
dirt and debris into the vacuum bag. The recovery
system consists of the debris tray assembly, vacuum
motor, paper vacuum bag and post filter. The vacuum
draws the dirt off the floor as the machine moves
forward. The vacuum motor provides suction to draw
the fine dirt into the vacuum bag, and the debris tray
holds large debris. The vacuum bag holds the fine dirt.

The function of the operator control system is to control
the direction and speed of the machine. The directional
control system consists of the direction control switch,
throttle pedal, speed control switch, drive reset switch,
emergency stop/brake switch, steering wheel, propel
controller and drive wheel. The directional control
switch signals forward or reverse direction. The
controller interprets signals from the throttle pedal to
command the drive wheel to propel or slow the
machine. The drive reset switch is to make sure the
operator is on platform before machine will propel. The
steering wheel points the drive wheel in the direction
desired by the operator. The parking brake
automatically engages when the operator steps off the
platform. The emergency stop/brake can be used to
hold the machine on slopes.
