Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a large vehicle (hereinafter referred to as a large vehicle) capable of automatically cleaning tires.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Originally, large vehicles, especially concrete mixer trucks and large dump trucks, often travel on unpaved roads for the purpose of use. Therefore, when running on a paved road, sludge adheres to the grooves of the tires when running, and not only does the sludge that adheres to the tires scatter on the road and become dirty, but also the sludge scatters on the following vehicles and oncoming vehicles, which hinders traffic. It will bother you. In some cases, it may lead to a traffic accident. Therefore, at a construction site where large vehicles come in and out frequently, when entering a general paved road from an unpaved road, wash the tires with a pre-installed car washing machine to remove sludge before running, or use a water supply source. In addition, at the site where a power source could not be secured and a car washing machine could not be installed, a cleaning staff had to be installed to remove the sludge adhering to the paved road, and the sludge scattered on the paved road had to be cleaned. For this reason, the driver had to get out of the driver's seat and wash the tires at a site where a car washer could be installed, and the time spent for this work was great. In addition, even at the site where the road cleaning staff was deployed, it was necessary to drive the vehicle at the slowest speed so as not to scatter sludge on the paved road, which hindered the transportation of cargo. In addition, the cost of installing car wash machines and deploying cleaning staff was enormous. For this reason, there is no labor-saving and efficient tire cleaning method that does not interfere with baggage transportation from construction site personnel who frequently come in and out of large vehicles, and transportation companies and construction companies that have a large number of large vehicles. There was a strong request.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 The problem to be solved by the present invention in view of the above is whether sludge adhering to the tires can be removed in a short time without manpower when traveling on an unpaved road.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The measures taken by the present invention to solve the problems are, in a large vehicle, an operation switch (7) provided at a predetermined position in the cab and a water tank (1) provided at a predetermined position on the vehicle body. And a tire cleaning device comprising a water pump (2) attached to the outlet of the water supply tank, solenoid valves (3) and (4), and sprinkler pipes arranged at predetermined positions in the front, rear, left and right wheel houses. By installing it, it has become possible to efficiently clean the tires without requiring human intervention.

[0005]

【Example】

 An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3 show a tire cleaning apparatus according to the present invention, in which (1) is a water tank arranged at a position outside and rear of a cabin of a large vehicle. A water pump (2) is attached to the water outlet of the water supply tank (1) in order to apply a constant pressure to the wash water to feed the wash water. Further, a T-shaped joint (8) is provided to divide the water flow direction into two parts, which are divided into a front wheel part and a rear wheel part. Solenoid valves (3) and (4) that can be operated by the operation switch (7) in the cab are attached to each of the water outlets divided into two directions. The water sprinkling pipe (6) is arranged in the rear wheel house, and the water sprinkling pipe (6) is attached to the rear tire so that the cleaning water is sprayed toward the rear tire. The sprinkler pipe (7) is arranged in the front wheel house and is attached so that the cleaning water is sprayed toward the front tire. Therefore, the tires can be easily washed by operating the operation switch (7) even while driving a large vehicle.

[0006]

[Effect of device]

 As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to wash away the sludge adhering to the tires by operating the switch from the driver's seat, so that it is possible to drive without getting off the driver's seat when entering a paved road from an unpaved road. Therefore, it is possible to shorten the time for carrying the luggage. Also, in the summer, when a large vehicle travels on an unpaved road, a large amount of dust is scattered, which causes trouble to nearby workers. Water can be sprayed and dust can be prevented from scattering.
