Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] "Field of Industrial Application" The present invention relates to improvement of automobile maintenance equipment.

``Prior Art'' Recently, a line-forming device has been proposed as an automobile maintenance device that intermittently moves a suspended automobile to various work sections such as a car wash work room, a wheel-related (suspension) maintenance room, and an engine-related maintenance room. ing.

``Problem that the invention seeks to solve'' However, in conventional automobile maintenance equipment that is line-based, this type of line-based automobile maintenance equipment suspends and moves automobiles, so there is no need to arrange support rails above the floor surface to suspend and guide the automobile. However, this support rail must be located at a predetermined height and must have the strength to support multiple cars, making it difficult to install it in an existing repair shop. Even if the existing maintenance shop has the space to install this support rail, it would be necessary to erect pillars to support the support rail, which would require major improvement work to be carried out on the building itself. It had shortcomings that needed to be overcome.

Therefore, the present invention was devised to solve the above-mentioned shortcomings.It uses an oil-type lift body that moves within a pit, and can be installed in the house of an existing repair shop without any modification. The purpose is to provide equipment.

Another object of the present invention is that if a pit is dug, the pit will move on the floor and become an obstacle to the movement of the lower car washing device that cleans the lower part of the car. The object of the present invention is to provide an automobile maintenance device that solves the problem and can easily perform lower car washing work.

``Means for Solving the Problems'' In line with the above-mentioned purpose, the structure of the present invention, whose gist is the scope of the above-mentioned utility model registration claims, is to solve the above-mentioned problems by reducing the total width of three automobiles. A pit 1 parallel to the frontage E is placed on the floor surface F of a work space R which has a long frontage E and is large enough to accommodate three cars that enter through the frontage E side by side and perform maintenance work. In the work space R, a pair of opening/closing partitions 2, 2 for partitioning the work space R into three rooms A, B, and C are arranged in a direction perpendicular to the pit 1, and in the pit 1, there is a frame. 30 movably stores two lifts 3, each of which has a pair of oil lift bodies 31, 31 facing each other in the longitudinal direction of the pit 1, and also has the opening/closing partitions 2, 2 on both left and right sides. On the floor F of room B,
The movement guide groove 1a of the lower car wash device 4 that moves while spouting washing water is arranged so as to be orthogonal to the pit 1,
Further, between the two oil lift bodies 31, 31 on the upper surfaces of the frames 30, 30, there is provided a connecting movement guide groove 32 which communicates with the movement guide groove 1a on the floor F when the lift 3 stops at a predetermined position in the room B. This is a technical measure that has been implemented in each case.

``Function'' Therefore, in the car maintenance device of the present invention, first, the car to be serviced enters the central room B, the car is raised by one of the lifts 3, and the opening/closing partitions 2, 2 and the necessary After closing the lifting curtain 2a, which will be described later, the lower car washing device 4
move. At this time, one of the lifts 3 is stopped at a position where the connecting movement guide groove 32 arranged on the upper surface of the pedestal 30 matches the position of the movement guide groove 1a.
The lower car washing device 4 moves while being guided by the movement guide groove 1a and the connecting movement guide groove 32, and sprays washing water to wash the lower surface of the automobile.

After the car has been washed, the lift 3 that lifts the car is moved to either room A or C, which is vacant, for maintenance. In addition,
Of course, at this time, both or one of the opening/closing partitions 2, 2 should be opened.

When another car is to be serviced, the car is moved into room B in the center, lifted up by the empty lift 3, and washed. Move to either room C and perform maintenance work in both rooms A and C.

In addition, when the maintenance that requires the use of lift 3 in either room A or C is completed, the car is lowered, the lift 3 is vacated, and this lift 3 is used.
Return to room B in the center and wash the third car in room B. This third car can be moved to either room A or C after the maintenance is completed in either room A or C, but even after the car wash is finished, it is still in both rooms A and C on the left and right. If it is in use, maintenance work can be carried out in this central room B.

``Example'' Next, an example of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

In the figure, F is a work space that has a frontage E that is longer than the total width of three cars, and is large enough to store three cars that entered through the frontage E side by side and to perform maintenance work. .

In the work space R, a pit 1 parallel to the frontage E is provided on the floor F, and a pair of opening/closing partitions 2, 2 that partition the work space R into three rooms A, B, and C are installed in a direction orthogonal to the pit 1. It is arranged in
That is, in the illustrated example, the opening/closing partitions 2, 2 are made up of lifting curtains that are raised and lowered by motors 21, 21, and when both opening/closing partitions 2, 2 are lowered, the center becomes a room B specializing in car washing, and on the left and right sides there are Rooms A and C dedicated to maintenance are separated. In addition, a lifting curtain 2a that is opened and closed by a motor 21a is also arranged on the frontage E side of the central room B, and a lifting curtain 2a that is opened and closed by a motor 21a is arranged on the frontage E side of the central room B. 2a to prevent washing water from scattering.

Inside the pit 1, two lifts 3 each having a pair of oil-type lift bodies 31, 31 disposed on a frame 30 facing each other in the longitudinal direction of the pit 1 are movably arranged. This lift 3 is called a two-post lift, and as most clearly shown in FIG. 3
0, a pair of oil-type lifting lift bodies 31, 31 are suspended, and both oil-type lifting lift bodies 31,
A pair of rotating arms 3 are mounted on the plunger 35 of 31.
