If it is this structure, since an air hose and a water hose can be connected and piped in the vicinity of both panels, compressed air and water can be taken in with a short simple piping path.

  Since the tank housing portion 60A is provided on the front surface of the opposite side portion 1a, not the side portion 1b on which the control panel PA3 and the operation panel 7 are provided, the liquid agent can be easily replenished or replaced. . Moreover, since the air panel PA1 and the water panel PA2 are provided on the same side, the tube piping disposed between them may be short, and the piping work is facilitated. Furthermore, in the case of cold district specifications and the like, these can be kept warm at the same time, so that the apparatus configuration can be simplified and made compact.

  As described above, the air panel PA1, the water panel PA2, and the tank storage portion 60A are provided on one side of the gate shape across the vehicle to be cleaned, and the control panel PA3 and the operation panel 7 are provided on the other side of the gate shape. If it is the structure which provides the intake port 17 (17A, 17B) above each side part, it will be the structure provided with intake ports, such as a hose and a cable, in each of the left and right sides of the portal-type car wash machine main body 1. Therefore, it is possible to easily perform piping and wiring for panels and equipment mounted on the respective side portions.

  Moreover, in the overseas specification different from the Japanese specification, when the operation panel 7 is provided on the left side 1a, if possible, a member provided on the side 1a and a member provided on the side 1b are provided. It is preferable to replace all of them, attach the attachment plate PL2 to the intake on the side 1a side, and attach the attachment plate PL1 to the intake on the side 1b side.

  If all members and panels can be arranged on one side, the mounting plate PL3 is attached to the intake on the one side, and attached to the intake on the other side. A plate PL4 may be attached.

Compared with the prior art example arranged in the rear portion of the longitudinal direction 1, the front-rear width of the installation space can be reduced. That is, the efficiency of the car wash machine installation space can be improved.

  This is because, even if the tilting pole 9 is disposed on the side of the car wash machine body 1, the tube bundle K is predetermined between the intake port provided on the top surface on the front side of the car wash machine body 1 and the tube bundle support part 94. This is because it is possible to form a space region that can be drooped greatly by bending B. Moreover, since the intake port is provided on the top surface of the car wash machine, even if the tilt pole 9 tilts at the side of the car wash machine body 1, the pole body and the tube bundle K do not interfere with each other, and the tilt operation is disturbed. Because it does not.

  Thus, in this embodiment in which the intake port 17 is provided on the top surface of the front side of the car wash machine body 1 (corresponding to a portion close to the front surface side of the top surface), the position of the tilt pole 9 is set at the position of the car wash. Since it can arrange | position in the side part of the car-washing machine main body 1 without limiting to the back of the machine main body 1, the efficiency of installation space and the variation of an installation style can be exhibited.

  As described above, according to the present invention, the car washing machine main body is provided with an intake hose for supplying compressed air, a water hose for supplying cleaning water, a wiring cable, and the like at a plurality of locations. A mounting plate that can be interchanged with each other is attached to each of the ports, and a first piping joint that connects an air hose, a second piping joint that connects a water hose, and a wiring member that allows a wiring cable to be inserted into the mounting plate. (E.g., grommet) is installed, so a car wash machine that can change the intake port of hoses, cables, etc., by changing the mounting plate with the desired joint or grommet is obtained. be able to.

  In addition, the car washer body is a gate type straddling the vehicle to be cleaned, and an air panel for branching control of the introduced compressed air and water for controlling the distribution of the introduced water on one side of the gate type. A panel and a tank storage section for storing a liquid storage tank for storing a liquid agent, and a control panel and an operation panel are provided on the other side of the portal, and the intake port is located above each side. The left and right sides of the main body of the gate-type car wash machine are equipped with intakes such as hoses and cables, and the panels attached to the side parts Piping and wiring can be easily performed on the equipment.

  The predetermined portion where the intake port is provided may be the upper side of the left and right side portions or a portion close to the front side of the top surface of the car wash machine body. Further, the configuration provided on the top surface is preferable even if the tilting pole is provided on the side portion of the car wash machine main body because interference between the tilting pole main body and the introduced tube bundle does not occur.

  The mounting plate attached to the intake port includes both a first piping joint that connects the air hose, a second piping joint that connects the water hose, and a wiring member (for example, a grommet) that supports the wiring cable so that it can be inserted. May be.

  As described above, according to the present invention, according to the location condition or installation condition of the car wash machine, the intake port such as a hose or cable can be appropriately changed, and the piping work or wiring of an air hose, a water hose, or a wiring cable is possible.
