Abstract

A mechanical sweeper attached to a carrier vehicle comprises a sweeping assembly (2) which is attached laterally to the frame of a carrier vehicle (1) between the front and rear wheels. The sweeping assembly is attached as one unit to a carrier frame (26) which is movably connected to the vehicle in order to shift the sweeping assembly (2) into a position outside the lateral profile outline of the vehicle (1). In the case of a mechanical sweeper having an interchangeable body (6), which, on a body frame (8), includes devices for picking up and storing the dirt and is arranged as a whole above the rear wheels (4) of the carrier vehicle (1), the carrier frame (26) is fastened to the body frame (8) of the interchangeable body (6) so that it can be pulled out laterally. The lateral pulling out movement is facilitated by a supporting device which comprises a leg (11) fastened to the carrier frame (26), this leg being supported on the ground (9) by means of a support roller (12), on the side of the sweeping assembly (2) opposite the vehicle.
