Description

No-rush type washing apparatus for a car

The present invention relates to a car wash device, and more particularly, to a no-rush type car wash device in which automatic washing is performed by spraying detergent water and washing water at high pressure without a physically working brush when washing the car.

In general, a car washing device is a device that washes a vehicle while automatically or semi-automatically spraying detergent water and washing water. In a conventional car washing device, a tunnel type or a mobile automatic car washing machine is used in which most of the rotating brushes perform car washing while rotating and moving along the surface of the car body.

Conventional tunnel-type or mobile automatic car wash devices require a relatively large space for washing a car. That is, since the car is washed while moving the vehicle to a predetermined length and placed on a mobile table, space for this is required. In addition, the configuration for spraying detergent water and washing water is complicated, which increases the installation cost. Especially, when washing the car, the surface of the car is scratched by the rotating brush, causing the user to turn off the automatic car wash (due to brush wiping) Factor due to the occurrence of absorption.

On the other hand, in the related art, in order to improve the problem of the brush-type automatic car washing device, a no-brush type automatic car washing device is disclosed in which washing is performed by spraying high-pressure washing water and detergent water. However, in such a non-automatic type car wash devices, automatic car washes are performed for automobiles of various shapes, and water is sprayed while the injection module rotates along the external vehicle shape. In other words, the closer the nozzle is to the nozzle, the greater the closer the nozzle is to the exterior of the car. This is an important factor that determines the performance of the no-rush type automatic car wash device.

However, in such a conventional no-brush type automatic car wash device, injection is performed while the injection module rotates while the nozzle is positioned close to the vehicle, and when the nozzle block rotating due to a malfunction or control error hits the exterior of the vehicle, very large economic loss The problem that arises is raised.

Referring to FIG. 1, the present invention includes structures 22 on both sides and an upper structure 21 supported by the structures 22. The upper structure 21 is equipped with a blower module 60 for drying after washing. In addition, the first injection module 30 is installed across the structure 22 and located below the upper structure 21. Here, the first injection module 30 is installed to be self-rotating while elevating in the vertical direction by the elevating module 38. In addition, the structure 22 is provided with a second injection module 40 that is moved in the left and right directions. In addition, the upper structure 21 is provided with a control unit 80 and a third injection module 50 for controlling each module.

In the present invention having such a configuration, car washing is performed on the front and upper surfaces of the vehicle through the first injection module 30, and car washing is performed on the side surfaces of the vehicle through the second injection module 40.

Specifically, the first injection module 30 is moved up and down in the structure 22 by the lifting module 38 and rotates in the lifting module 38. In addition, the first injection module 30 is provided with a plurality of injection nozzles is configured to spray detergent water or washing water to the outside of the vehicle.

Meanwhile, referring to FIGS. 2 and 3, the first injection module 30 is provided with an anti-collision means 100 that does not generate a collision or a scratch on the vehicle while being close to the outer surface of the vehicle during washing.

Referring to FIG. 4, the collision prevention means 100 of the present invention includes an edge portion 120 ′ exposed to the outside of the injection module body 30f and a support 110 extending inward from the edge portion 120 ′. Includes. Here, the rim portion 120 'is formed in the form of a circular ring. This is because the shape of the circular ring is most suitable in the same direction as the rotational direction of the injection module main body 30f rotated and injected.

In addition, the support 110 is fixed in a substantially '+' shape at the edge portion 120 '. In addition, the center frame portion 150 is formed in a rectangular shape at the center of the support 110.

Meanwhile, referring to FIGS. 5 and 6, a moving hole 30a through which the support 110 penetrates is formed in the injection module main body 30f. The moving holes (30a, 30b) are formed on the outer side of each side of the injection module body (30f) so that the support 110 is penetrated. In addition, fixed pieces 31a, 31b, 31c, and 31d are respectively fixed to corners inside the injection module body 30f.

One end of the springs S1 to S4 is fixed to the fixing pieces 31a, 31b, 31c, and 31d, respectively. Meanwhile, the other ends of the springs S1 to S4 are fixed to the corners of the central frame portion 150, respectively.

Accordingly, the collision prevention means 100 is installed in a state elastically supported by springs S1 to S4 on the injection module body 30f. Accordingly, when the circular ring-shaped rim portion 120 'hits the object (outside of the vehicle), the entire guide portion 120a is moved in one direction, and when the collision object is removed, the spring S1 ~ S4) returns to the original state again.

11 to 14 and FIGS. 23 and 24, a fixing plate 300 is mounted to the central frame portion 150, and a sensing target member 350 is installed at the center of the fixing plate 300. At this time, the sensing target member 350 may be made of a material (iron component) that reacts with magnetism. Relatively, the fixed plate 300 may be made of a non-magnetic transparent plastic material.

10 and 15, a bracket member 250 is installed inside the injection module body 30f. The bracket member 250 is formed in an approximately 'L' shape. A long groove 251 is formed in a horizontal region of the bracket member 250 and a long hole 250h is formed in a vertical region. Here, the sensing member 200 is mounted to the long hole 250h of the bracket member 250. The sensing member 200 is a proximity sensor and is disposed close to the sensing target member 350 to detect the magnetic material of the sensing target member 350.

Meanwhile, referring to FIG. 20, the sensing member 200 may be disposed to enable vertical height adjustment through the fixing member 200a in the long hole 250h. Therefore, upon installation, the height of the sensing member 200 can be adjusted to be close to the sensing target member 350 to facilitate the placement of the proximity sensor.

In addition, through the long groove 251 formed in the horizontal region of the bracket member 250 may be installed while flowing in the front-rear direction from the injection module body (30f). Accordingly, the installation may be performed while easily adjusting the distance between the sensing member 200 and the sensing target member 350.

The present invention having such a configuration is a collision when the first injection module 30 hits the outer surface of the vehicle by a sudden impact while spraying washing water or detergent water in close proximity to the exterior of the vehicle while the first injection module 30 rotates When the rim portion 120 'of the prevention means 100 hits the outer surface of the vehicle, the guide portions 120a and 120b flow to one side.

As described above, when the guide portion 120a flows by an impact light, the detection target member 350 installed in the center of the fixed plate 300 of the central frame portion 150 is out of the limit of the detection area of the detection member 200 in the proximity state. do. That is, in a fine flow (flow condition during normal operation, not collision), the original state (flow state in the sensing region) is maintained by springs S1 to S4 fixed to the corners. On the other hand, when directly hitting the outer surface of the vehicle, as described above, the proximity of the sensing target member 350 is released and the sensing member 200 leaves the sensing area of the sensing target member 350 and the visa of the fixed plate 300 The material region is in a state of proximity.

At this time, the sensing member 200 stops the injection operation of the injection module by recognizing this as a collision situation. Then, when the collision object (vehicle) is removed, the springs S1 to S4 respectively installed at the corners return to the original state, and in this state, the sensing member 200 recognizes that the collision state is released.

As described above, the present invention operates during the general washing while the collision preventing means in the injection module body is finely flowed by a plurality of springs installed therein. In this case, the vehicle is driven according to the rotational direction of the injection module by a circular guide portion. It works while maintaining a certain interval.

On the other hand, when the injection module hits the outer surface of the vehicle during car washing for any reason, the guide portion is moved in one direction, and the detection target member 350 installed in the central frame portion 150 detects the detection area of the detection member 200. Will get out. At this time, by detecting this as a collision situation, the sensing member stops the injection operation of the injection module 30 and can recognize the collision warning to the operator, thereby improving the stability of the device.

Meanwhile, referring to FIG. 22, in another embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of collision prevention modules 100a, 100b, and 100c are installed in the injection module 30. Also, rotating shafts 30a and 30b are installed at both ends of the injection module 30. Accordingly, the injection module 30 may spray washing water or detergent water while rotating along the rotation shafts 30a and 30b.

Specifically, the plurality of collision prevention modules 100a, 100b, and 100c are arranged around the central collision prevention module 100c installed at the center of the injection module 30 and at both sides of the central collision prevention module 100c. Collision prevention modules (100a, 100b).

At this time, the outer diameter of the central collision prevention module (100c) is formed smaller than the outer diameter of the peripheral collision prevention module (100a, 100b). That is, as shown in FIGS. 23 and 24, the outer diameter of the edge portion 120 'applied to the central collision prevention module is smaller than the outer diameter of the edge portion 120' applied to the peripheral collision prevention modules 100a and 100b.

Through this configuration, the present invention can arrange a plurality of collision prevention modules (100a, 100b, 100c) in accordance with the external size of various vehicles at a predetermined interval in the injection module 30, it is possible to increase the collision safety during washing.

In addition, the present invention can be applied by varying the outer diameter of the edge portion 120 'applied to the collision prevention module, so that the collision prevention module is sprayed in the state as close as possible to the vehicle according to the shape or shape of the vehicle during washing. By doing so, collision safety can be further increased.

For example, when a relatively large diameter collision-prevention module (for example, 100a and 100b in FIG. 22) hits the exterior of a vehicle when washing, stop spraying of washing water, and furthermore, a central collision-prevention module having a relatively small diameter ( 100c) can be configured to completely stop driving of the car wash device when it hits the vortex of the vehicle. Through these embodiments, the injection module rotating during the injection process increases the cleaning efficiency by allowing the injection to occur in the state as close as possible to the exterior of the vehicle, and also for operation through a plurality of collision prevention modules 100a, 100b, and 100b. Stability can be increased.

In the above, although the present invention has been illustrated and described with respect to specific embodiments, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and those skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains may describe the present invention as set forth in the claims below.
