Abstract
A method for cleaning the interior of pipes using a cleaning device and a cleaning device. The cleaning device has a tube and an advancing unit for moving the tube along a main axis (H) of the advancing unit. The advancing unit has a drive which is frictionally connected to the tube and by which the tube is moved in an axial direction along the main axis (H). The advancing unit is set into a rotational movement about the main axis (H) during the axial movement of the tube, and the drive transmits the rotational movement to the tube.
Claims14
A cleaning device for cleaning the interior of pipes, comprising:
- a tube,
- a post and
- an advancing unit for moving the tube along a main axis (H) of the advancing unit, wherein the advancing unit has a drive connected to the tube by a frictional connection in order to move the tube axially along the main axis (H),
- wherein the advancing unit is rotatably supported about the main axis (H) in the post,
- wherein the tube can be set into a pendulum movement by the frictional connection, and
- wherein a pendulum drive is provided, by which the advancing unit can be rotated.
