OP patents are hot!

[Mikey P]

Guerks has a patent on his 9/16s travel. Mytee is going to test the validity next week when they show their version at ICE.

Now I see this on the Vibe site..

By incorporating our patented dual-action orbital system

The Vibe will be at ICE so I'm thinking Dewey, Screwem & Howe should snag a booth to just cut to the chase..

Everybody steals. Its actually a good thing.

 

[Nomad74]

I'm lost. so companies are trying to patent the amount of rotation in an orbital?

Don't let him drag you too deeply into this uninteresting subject.

Just know that the padders are looney all the way from the top to the bottom of the pile.

My calculations indicate that 9/16" travel is so aggressive it would likely result in bent handles.....

That's because you dont know any better Dan. You have to be experienced in OP cleaning to know how to strip the fibers of all soil. Look at my ATP test slide. NASA level proof that OP carpets cleaned with my 9'16's machines clean deeper than any other method.

I actually own a vintage Geurkink (way pre-9/16") machine and a pretty huge pile of glads and tuways...... but was never truly indoctrinated into the fold..... thank goodness.

ATP is reading less with OP not because its cleaner but because its not cleaning as deep and its dry faster.

Carpets that are HWE are going to show a higher reading.

Cleaner?? Reading less organic material through the meter. You can say cleaner but that's a stretch.

I'm thinking of doing a counter rotating cylinder machine that sprays through a slot in the beater brush bar.

It would spray from below rather than from above and I'm patenting the four-sided "Curtain of Suction." Both original concepts.

I got dibs.

Ricky G is very confident that his newly improved Vario will give the Vibe a run for its money at MFStP

That couldn't possibly be the truth.
Any claim made by Ricky is sure to be followed by Jimmy's.

Try again.

All of this because of Trump! Obama didn't do shit for OP users ( Loozers)

Any word on claims of superior "Pad Extraction"

Have you looked into Orbot's new Ultra pad? Claims it will clean 300 to 900 sq ft. Pretty big margin but they are saying its the one to use when nothing else works. It's kind of like a magic eraser made into a pad. I really want to try this out.

 

[ruff]

I stand corrected

You are NOT lost, you just have common sense and YEP that is what it's all about. Next thing you know they will be litigating over a piece of teflon on a wand and the SOVC / vac release module. Maybe even the rotoBULLSHIT duct cleaning knock offs.

Can't you see a bunch of carpet cleaners turned op manufactorers dragging their machines into federal court to demo and prove the size of their"out of balance rotary" cleaning footprint . I can just hear a judge humbling under their breath, " these guys are batshit crazy I'M buying a bissel so they are never in my house.

Just for flat hard floors, not carpet

Yes, I didn't think for a second it should be used on carpet. sorry if I wasn't clear.

I don't know...........used the old Vario with 21" micro pads on Sunday. I don't know what the hell size orbit it has, but it worked fine............felt like I could have done 26,000 sf in a couple hours like old "what's his name Tim?" from Utah???
Nah.........4 hours to do 8000 sf along with the Cimex. A few coffee breaks, a few drags on the oxygen canister, back to work. Ya know.........somebody gotta fetch water for these machines, and it was a floor down. I'm too old to run.
