The steam supply pipe 300 is a moving passage of steam generated by the steam generator 200, one end of which is connected to the steam generator 200 and the other end thereof extends in the horizontal direction of the frame part 100.

On the other hand, it is more preferable to add a preliminary steam generating unit 200 'connected to the other end of the steam supply pipe 300 in case the steam generating unit 200 does not operate normally.

As shown in FIG. 4, the condensate discharge part 400 includes a discharge pipe 410, a discharge valve 420, a control valve 430, and an operation handle 440.

The discharge pipe 410 is a passage for discharging the condensed water when the steam filled in the steam supply pipe 300 is condensed.

The discharge valve 420 is for forcibly discharging the condensed water stored in the discharge pipe 410 and the residual steam in the steam supply pipe 300 to the outside, and is preferably formed at the end of the discharge pipe 410.

The control valve 430 is formed in a pipe coupled to one side of the discharge pipe 410 as a separate valve for discharging the condensed water stored in the discharge pipe 410.

Unlike the discharge valve 410 for forcibly discharging condensate and steam, the control valve 430 is preferably made of a check valve that can prevent condensate passing through the control valve 430 from flowing back to the discharge pipe 410. Do.

The operation handle 440 is installed at the end of a separate pipe in which the control valve 430 is located and opens and closes the separate pipe so that condensed water and steam passing through the control valve 430 can be discharged to the outside.

As shown in FIG. 5, the valve part 500 includes steam filled in the steam supply pipe 300 according to an electrical signal of a coin injecting part 700 to be described later as a steam injecting part 600 to be described later for a predetermined time. It is preferable that the solenoid valve 510 is formed as a part that opens and closes to be moved.

On the other hand, the valve unit 500 is preferably configured to be electrically connected to the operation switch 621 of the steam gun 620 can be opened and closed by the operation signal of the operation switch 621.

In addition, a manual opening / closing valve 530 capable of manually opening / closing the valve unit 500 may be further added to the valve unit 500.

In addition, the valve unit 500 may be provided with a plurality of steam hose connector 520 so that a plurality of steam injection unit 600 can be connected.

As illustrated in FIG. 5, the steam injection unit 600 includes a steam hose 610 connected to the valve unit 500, and a steam gun 620 connected to the steam hose 610.

The steam gun 620 is further provided with a control switch 621 that can send an electrical signal to the valve unit 500, the electrical signal is coupled between the steam gun 620 and the valve unit 500 as shown Is transmitted by wires.

As illustrated in FIG. 7, the coin injector 700 includes a coin inlet through which a user inserts a coin, and a controller that generates an electrical signal according to the coin to be opened to open the valve unit 500 for a predetermined time. The controller is preferably built in the coin inlet 700.

Of course, the coin input unit 700 and the valve unit 500 are electrically connected.

The power supply unit 1000 supplies power to each of the coin input unit 700, the steam generator 200, the steam injection unit 600, and the valve unit 500.

On the other hand, the coin input unit 700 is a coin input unit power source 710 consisting of a power plug and an outlet so that only the coin input unit 700 can be connected and cut off, of course, can be installed separately.

In addition, the present invention may be operated by separating the device from the external environment by adding a cover 800 in winter as shown in FIG.

The cover 800 includes upper, side, and rear covers 810, 820, and 830, respectively.

The upper cover 810 is preferably configured to slide forward and backward along the guide rails 840 formed on the upper ends of the first vertical frames 150, and between the first vertical frames 150 facing each other. More preferably, one lid is configured to slide.

Each of the side and rear covers 820 and 830 is preferably made of a removable type that can be easily installed and dismantled.

Removable configuration is not limited to a specific method can be used to select from a variety of methods, such as zipper or button type, the material is also not limited to any one specific material is obvious.

On the other hand, a plurality of air outlets 910 is formed on the front upper portion of the steam car wash, it is preferable to extend the air supply pipe 900, one end is connected to the steam generating unit 200 horizontally.

The plurality of air outlets 910 formed in the air supply pipe 900 may spray the air supplied from the steam generator 200 vertically downward to prevent foreign substances such as dust from being introduced into the car wash apparatus. .

Briefly look at the operation of the self-steam car wash device according to the present invention as described above.

First, when a user positions the vehicle at an arbitrary compartment inside the frame and then inputs a coin or more into a coin input unit 700, the controller embedded in the coin input unit 700 corresponds to the input amount. The signal is transmitted to the valve unit 500 so that the valve unit 500 can be opened.

When the signal is transmitted from the controller, the steam supply pipe 300 primarily opens the corresponding valve unit 500 to prepare for steam supply, and the user aims the steam gun 620 at a specific part of the vehicle to operate the steam gun ( When the operation switch 621 mounted on the 620 is operated, the valve part 500 is secondarily opened until steam is injected to the outside through the steam supply pipe 300, the valve part 500, and the steam hose 610. Car wash by steam is performed.

When the steam filled in the steam supply pipe 300 is condensed while the car wash is in progress, condensed water may be injected through the steam gun 620 so that it is difficult to clean the steam smoothly, so that the control valve 430 and the operation handle 440 may be removed. Properly adjusted, the condensate is naturally discharged through the discharge pipe 410.

On the other hand, when a time corresponding to the input amount of time elapses, the controller transmits a signal for closing the valve unit 500 to prevent further steam from being supplied to the steam injection unit 600 through the valve unit 500. .

The specific embodiments described above are merely illustrative of the self-steam car wash apparatus according to the present invention, it is obvious that the present invention is not limited thereto.

The present invention as described above has the advantage of excellent washing power by washing the steam by spraying high-temperature, high-pressure steam, it is possible to wash with a small amount of water, there is an advantage that can reduce the environmental pollution.

In addition, the present invention can significantly reduce the washing time than the existing water washing method due to the excellent washing power, there is an advantage that can be washed without fear of water freezing even in winter.

In addition, the present invention has the advantage that the user who wants to wash the car can be directly put into the coin and the car wash can be reduced by the labor cost.

In addition, the present invention has the advantage that the user can conveniently wash the car even without the influence of the external environment in winter.
