ice resurfacer
Frozen floor groomer
An ice resurfacer is a vehicle that smooths and restores the surface of an ice rink.
It shaves off a thin layer of roughened ice, collects the shavings, and lays down a fresh film of hot water that freezes into a smooth skating surface.
Zamboni, the dominant brand, has become nearly synonymous with the machine: The Zamboni came out between periods.
