Description

Car tire self-cleaning device

The present invention relates to an automatic car tire cleaning apparatus, and more particularly, to an automobile tire cleaning apparatus capable of automatically cleaning a tire during an unpackaged workshop or a contaminated area.

For example, while a car is driving on a dirt road, the tire of the car may be contaminated by dirt or the like. In particular, after driving in an unpacked workshop, a large amount of soil may adhere to the tire, and when working in a contaminated area such as a dump, it may be contaminated by contaminants.

As such, if soil or contaminants stick to the tire and leave the area, it may contaminate other areas and cause serious environmental problems. Indeed, roads around construction sites or garbage dumps can easily witness contamination by dirt or waste by-products.

This is due to the inability to completely clean the tires when the car leaves the area.

Accordingly, the present invention has been made to solve the above problems and causes, it is an object of the present invention to provide a vehicle tire automatic cleaning device that can be cleaned by cleaning the tire completely before leaving the contaminated area.

According to another object of the present invention, to provide a car tire automatic cleaning device that can be automatically cleaned by spraying the washer liquid on the tire while driving a car,

Such objects are achieved by a preferred embodiment of the present invention. According to an aspect of the present invention, a cylindrical body is fixed to a wheel house panel or a mud protector of an automobile by a fixing plate, and includes a plurality of fastening holes and openings; A moving rod reciprocally inserted to adjust the distance to the main body, a fixing hole corresponding to each of the fastening holes, and a moving rod having cleaning means for cleaning the contaminants attached to the surface of the tire; And a supply hose extending through the main body and the moving rod to the cleaning means for supplying the washer fluid discharged from the washer fluid tank by the operation switch and the pump, and a plurality of fluid hoses connected to the supply hose to inject the washer fluid into the tire. It is provided with a vehicle tire automatic cleaning device comprising a; washer liquid supply means having a jet hole.

According to another aspect of the present invention, the cleaning means is provided with a car tire automatic cleaning device, characterized in that consisting of a plate fixed to the moving rod, and a brush which is formed in close contact with the plate and the injection hole is exposed.

According to another aspect of the present invention, the brush is provided with a vehicle tire automatic cleaning device, characterized in that formed of synthetic resin and / or metal.

Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Figure 1 is a side view of a van showing the installation state of the automatic car tire cleaning device according to the present invention, Figure 2 is an exploded perspective view of the automatic car tire cleaning device according to the present invention, Figure 3 A cross-sectional view of the tire auto washing device according to the present invention is shown.

According to FIGS. 1, 2 and 3, a tire automatic cleaning device 10 is installed in a wheel house or a mud protector P of an automobile, in particular, a freight vehicle.

In more detail, the auto tire auto washing apparatus 10 includes a main body 11 fixed to a wheel house panel or a mud protector P of a vehicle and a moving rod 12 inserted in a reciprocating manner to adjust a length of the main body 11. ). The main body 11 is drilled with a plurality of fastening holes 13 at regular intervals. An opening 14 is formed at one end of the main body 11, and a fixing plate 15 that is bolted to the wheel house panel or the mud protector P is formed at the other end. The opening rod 14 is reciprocally inserted so that the length of the movable rod 12 can be adjusted, and a fixing hole 16 corresponding to each of the fastening holes 13 is located near one end of the movable rod 12. ) Is perforated. The fixing hole 16 is matched to one of the fastening holes 13 so that the fastener 17 is fixed so that the moving rod 12 is fixed to the main body 11.

Of course, the cleaning means 18 is formed at the other end of the moving rod 12, the cleaning means 18 is a plate (18a) of similar size to the width of the tire and the brush (18b) densely provided on the plate It is composed. The brush 18b may be formed of synthetic resin and / or metal. In particular, according to the present invention, the washer fluid supply means 20 is provided, the washer fluid supply means 20 is the washer fluid tank 21, such as a general windshield washer fluid storage tank, the washer washer fluid tank 21 from the main body ( 11) and a supply hose 22 extending through the moving rod 12 to the cleaning means 17, and formed at the end of the supply hose 22 and exposed to the brush 18b to expose the tire T. One or more injection holes 23 for jetting the washer liquid. The washer fluid supply means 20 may include a feed pump 24 to inject the washer fluid into the tire through the injection hole 23 through the supply hose 22. Of course, the operation switch 25 is connected to the supply pump 24 so that the washer fluid may be continuously or intermittently sprayed on the tire similarly to the method of supplying the washer fluid to the windshield.

According to the installation method and the method of using the automobile tire automatic washing apparatus according to the present invention, first, the fastener 15 of the main body 11 is connected to the wheel house panel or the mud protector P of the vehicle using a fastening means such as a bolt. To fix it. Of course, at this time, the moving rod 12 which can be reciprocated through the opening 14 is inserted into the main body 11, and the washer fluid supply hose 22 is the wheel house panel or the mud protector P, It is a state connected to the cleaning means 18 via the fixing plate 15, the main body 11, and the moving rod 12. Therefore, when the driver wants to clean the tire T while driving, the moving rod 12 is pulled out so that the brush 18b of the cleaning means 18 formed on the moving rod 12 contacts the surface of the tire T. The fixing hole 16 of the movable rod 12 is matched with the corresponding fastening hole 13 of the main body 11, and then fixed using the fastener 17.

Accordingly, the brush 18b comes into contact with the tire T, and the washer fluid of the washer fluid tank 21 is sprayed onto the tire T by the washer fluid is injected into the tire through the injection hole 23 through the supply hose 22. The material is removed and the tire T is automatically cleaned and cleaned. At this time, the washer liquid may be sprayed continuously or intermittently by the operation of the operation switch (25). Then, when cleaning of the tire is completed or out of the contaminated area, the driver turns off the operation switch 25 and then retracts the moving rod 12 into the main body 11 so as to be spaced apart from the tire T. This is to prevent incomplete driving of the tire which may be caused by the friction between each other. In practice, however, such slight friction does not affect the rotation of the tire, so it is not necessary to retreat the moving rod 12 even in a normal state.

As a result, when the tire automatic washing apparatus according to the present invention is employed in an automobile, in particular a freight vehicle, it is possible to automatically wash and clean the mud or contaminants adhered to the tire during the operation of an unpackaged workshop or a contaminated area. As a result, the tires can be completely cleaned at the same time as leaving the workplace or the contaminated area, thereby effectively preventing road pollution and environmental pollution.

While preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described above, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various modifications and changes can be made without departing from the scope of the appended claims.
