Bike - Sweeping system

Designed by Gonzalo Ortiz Derpich
Degree project, 2009

The increase in urban pollution, its collection in a responsible way with the environment and an improvement in the working conditions of municipal sweepers were the inspiration for this system that seeks to combine the benefits of outdoor physical activity with a garbage collection faster, cleaner and more efficient at a low cost.
Any bicycle can be attached to the system, allowing people of different sizes to use it.
The front arm has a brush that rotates due to the movement of the vehicle and drags the waste towards the main collector, which is located at the rear of the system
The container has a large load capacity, to avoid unnecessary stops and to cover a larger area in the same amount of time. Also, it is very easy to remove so you can download it when necessary.
