Abstract

PURPOSE:To reduce the trouble of existence of an un-dried part as best as possible by blowing the dry air onto the side surface and upper surface of an automobile from a side nozzle and top nozzle and reversely traveling a car washing machine from the rear window part to the tail part. CONSTITUTION:When dry air is blown onto a roof part from a top nozzle 11, air stream intrudes into a groove in a trunk part along a rear window, and the residual water droplets flow to a rear bumper from the groove in the trunk part and stays in the bumper part. At this time, the residual water droplets are blown out from the higher place to the lower place by the reverse traveling once more. When the air stream travels on a car body 1 and reaches the uneven part of an automobile 5 where water droplets easily collect, the traveling of the body 1 is suspended temporarily, and the blowing time is prolonged. Thus, the draining-off of the water droplets adhering on the surface of the automobile in drying process is improved, and the trouble of the formation of un-dried part can be reduced as best as possible.

The present invention straddles the car to be washed and blows drying air from a blower installed in a gate-shaped car wash machine body that runs in the front and rear directions of the car, into the interior of the car wash machine body. The side nozzle installed on the side and the top nozzle installed on the top spray the air toward the sides and top of the car, and the top nozzle runs until it reaches the roof of the car, and then sprays from the roof to the rear window, trunk, The car wash machine runs in the opposite direction to the tail section, and after the main operation, the car wash machine temporarily stops running in areas where water droplets may remain, thereby extending the spraying time.

[Operation and Effect] Water droplets that adhere to the sides and top of the car during drying are
Drying is concentrated on the uneven parts of the car (including the rear window and front window), but if the driving direction is one direction, dry the uphill slope from the trunk of the car to the roof from the lowest slope to the highest slope. When this happens, the water droplets tend to flow from higher to lower, making it impossible to obtain a sufficient drying effect, and after drying, the remaining water droplets remain in the tail of the vehicle.
