Abstract

PURPOSE:To suppress the running distance of a running frame to the minimum by smoothly moving a side brush to an opening position, in a car washing device which is constituted to wash the front of a vehicle by means of a pair of right and left side brushes arranged to a running frame running in the same direction as that of a conveyor as the vehicle is transferred by the conveyor. CONSTITUTION:When the front of a vehicle V transferred at a speed S1 with the vehicle pressed by the press roller 7 of a conveyor is brought into contact with side brushes 15 arranged to a running frame RF to incline the side brushes 15 (referring to (A)), a running frame RF is run at a speed S2 faster than the speed S1 for a given time and the side brushed 15 are brought into a vertical posture (referring to (B)). Thereafter, a speed is reduced from S2 to S1, and the front of the vehicle V is washed as the side brushes 15 are moved in the opening direction.

Thus, the side brushes 15 and 15 are connected to the vehicle V.
4 (a) inclining by contacting the front surface of the vehicle to the position (b) in FIG. 4 where the side brushes 15, 15 start to open, the traveling speed of the vehicle V by the conveyor VC is higher than the traveling speed S 1. Since the traveling frame RF is moved forward in S 2 , the postures of the side brushes 15 and 15 can be changed from the inclined position of FIG. 5A to the vertical position of FIG. 5B during that time. As a result, when the side brushes 15, 15 move from the position (b) to the position (c) in FIG. 4, the surface pressure of the side brushes 15, 15 for cleaning the front surface of the vehicle V becomes an appropriate amount, The bristles are prevented from being caught on the front surface of the vehicle V. As a result, the side brushes 15, 1
Since 5 can reach the open end position without delay, the length of the traveling rails 9 for guiding the traveling frame RF can be minimized to reduce the size of the car wash device.

In the second embodiment, the traveling speed S 2 of the traveling frame RF is fixed to a speed higher by a predetermined value than the maximum speed of the transfer speed S 1 of the conveyor VC determined by the operation of the operation input switch 30, The time t 1 according to the transfer speed S 1 of the conveyor VC (the time from the actuation of the shake detection switch 23 until the side brushes 15, 15 start to open)
Is what changes. Specifically, when the transfer speed S 1 of the conveyor VC is small, the time t 1 is shortened because the difference from the traveling speed S 2 of the traveling frame RF is large.
When the transfer speed S 1 of the conveyor VC is high, the difference between the transfer speed S 2 of the travel frame RF and the travel speed S 2 is small, so the time t 1 may be lengthened.
