The invention proposes a single-engine, truck-mounted sweeper machine that incorporates systems and devices for an improved power pack mounting mechanism. A propeller shaft mounted at the side of the engine is used to take power from a driven pulley. At the rear end of the propeller shaft a suitable capacity power pack driving the sweeping system is attached. A clutch is introduced between the engine-driven pulley and the power pack, which may be coupled or decoupled as required instead of driving the power pack all the time. The power pack may be activated or deactivated for better component life and to conserve energy. In place of hydraulic pump an electric generator may be substituted. The overall advantage of the invention is that higher power could be provided for effective sweeping function in truck-mounted sweepers, without change in engine capacity or environmental concerns such as emissions.
