Abstract

This invention provides a floor cleaning method that can shorten the construction period and reduce the number of workers required for floor cleaning work, while also improving cleaning quality and extending the lifespan of cleaning vehicles. [Solution] The method includes the steps of: rotating the side brushes 8 in opposite directions to sweep debris from the floor surface F towards the inside and rear of the cleaning vehicle 2; rotating the horizontal brush 16 to sweep the debris swept out by the side brushes 8 back towards the front of the cleaning vehicle 2; a dry separation step of sucking up the debris swept back by the horizontal brush 16 and separating it through a filter 20; rotating a plurality of scrub brushes 26 to polish the floor surface F; applying water or cleaning solution to the floor surface F or the scrub brushes 26 themselves between the horizontal brushes 16 and the scrub brushes 26; and a wet separation step of using a squeegee 36 positioned behind the scrub brushes 26 to block and suck up the sludge water 38 agitated by the scrub brushes 26 and separating it through a filter 42.
