Abstract

PURPOSE:To effectively prevent the dispersion of car washing liquid by installing a curtain for shielding the opened part of a gate-shaped frame of a car washing machine, at said opened part. CONSTITUTION:A curtain 2 is suspended on the inlet side of the gate-shaped frame opened part of a car washer. Said curtain 2 is divided into two parts right and left in the direction of width and is accommodated into a frame 1 side, swung in the horizontal direction by an accommodation mechanism 3. The curtain 2 shields the opened part in ordinary state, and opens the opened part when the curtain is accommodated, and shielding is released. When a car is washed, the gate-shaped frame opened part is shielded by the curtain, and car washing liquid does not disperse outside from the frame opened part.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a car wash machine, and more particularly to a gate-type car wash machine having a gate-type frame.

A gate-type car wash machine has a structure in which the car wash machine is self-propelled or the object to be washed is moved, and the object to be washed moves forward and backward into an opening of a gate-shaped frame to perform washing. As for the cleaning method, it is common to use a car wash brush, but in recent years, a method that uses a high-pressure fountain has been developed. Even in these methods of washing chairs, since the washing water scatters outside from the frame opening, it is recommended to attach curtains made of vinyl or the like to the top and both sides of the opening to prevent splashing. is normal.

However, recently there have been many requests to wash various vehicles with different widths and heights using the same car wash machine, so the length and width of the banner must be shortened to match the maximum width and height of the vehicle to which it is applied. The effect of preventing water from scattering was not sufficient when washing a small vehicle that does not need to be washed.

The present invention was made in order to improve the above-mentioned drawbacks, and by providing a curtain that closes the opening, the effect of preventing p water from scattering is improved, and it is possible to make this 7-movement swing. The aim is to improve the cleaning effect as well.

That is, the present invention provides a gate-shaped frame that straddles a vehicle to be washed in the width direction, a curtain made of a soft material suspended to close an opening of the gate-shaped frame, and a rocker that swings the curtain. The basic feature is that it has a movement mechanism and a storage mechanism that stores the entire curtain and unlocks and closes the opening as required.

The present invention will be explained below based on examples.

FIG. 1 is a two-sided view, FIG. 2 is a plan view, and FIG. 3 is a side view.

(1) is a gate-shaped frame, and a curtain (2) is hung on the entrance side of this opening. The curtain (2) is divided into two pieces on the left and right sides in the width direction, and is swung horizontally by a storage mechanism (3) to be stored and pulled toward the frame (1) side.

The opening km of the curtain (2) is normally closed, and when it is stored, the opening is opened and the late closing is released. The material of the curtain (2) is a soft material, specifically, felt, 7-lannel, chamois-like material, etc.

The curtain (2) is suspended from a curtain bar, and this bar is pivotably supported horizontally on a pin (3J) protruding downward from the frame in the bosk 1). . As shown in Fig. 4, the broken boss Qυ is equipped with a lever (2), which is connected to an air cylinder (32) that is pivotally supported on the frame.
32) Deer-temper eA yb by driving;
By rotating about 90 times, the curtain (2) can be retracted to the frame (1) side, and the frame opening can be opened. This frame is ), bin (31)
, an air cylinder (32) constitutes a storage mechanism (3).

As shown in Figure 2, the frame holder has a mouth-shaped shape, and is swung by four supporting renocous (40) that are pivotally supported by this frame ① and the ceiling of the gate-shaped frame (1), respectively. Possibly supported. In this embodiment, it is swingable in the width direction.

Installed fL and connected to the guard motor (41).

It is oscillated by the drive of this motor (41). These support levers < - (40) Tochard motor (41), crank (42) and connecting rod (43)
It is composed of Toyoshi rocker #(4)'.

Note that the gate-shaped frame (1) is equipped with devices necessary for a car wash machine, such as a detergent jetting device, a fountain device, and a drying device, but the description thereof will be omitted because it is the same as the conventional one. Moreover, in the case of a mobile car wash machine, a traveling device is installed, and in the case of a brush type, a brush device, etc. are installed.

In the above configuration, since the opening of the gate-type frame (1) of the curtain (2) is closed late, splashing of washing water is effectively prevented. Furthermore, when this curtain (2) is not needed or when leaving the vehicle, it can be easily stored in the storage mechanism (3) so that it does not get in the way. Furthermore, curtains (2
) is brought into contact with the vehicle body and rocked by the rocking mechanism (4).
can clean the car body with a soft touch, which is more effective than brush cleaning.

As explained above, since the car wash machine of the present invention is provided with a curtain that closes the opening of the gate-shaped frame late, splashes can be effectively prevented. Additionally, the curtains can be retracted so they do not get in the way and there is no risk of damaging the vehicle body. Furthermore, by swinging the curtain using the swing mechanism, the vehicle body can also be washed.
