Description

An apparatus for cleaning

The present invention relates to a washing apparatus, and more particularly, to a technique for increasing the washing efficiency when the vehicle is installed outside the car wash system.

In recent years, the number of automobiles has become explosive as daily necessities, and accordingly, various technologies related to vehicle maintenance, especially car wash, have been suggested.

Conventional steam car washes have been used by hand washing method using a simple tool, and recently, an automatic car wash apparatus combining a chemical detergent, a machine, and a mechanical configuration has been widely used.

Although not shown, the above-described automatic car wash apparatus generally includes a tunnel type for releasing water after sequential spraying, rinsing, rinsing, and drying by strong wind while moving the entered vehicle at a low speed, and entering the vehicle in a proper position. It is divided into the door type which stops and the car washing device moves forward and backward and releases after spraying, washing by the rotation of the brush, drying by rinsing and strong wind. The efficiency is improved.

However, such a conventional automatic car wash device effectively removes the oily contaminants accumulated on the surface of a vehicle when driving on a road, and thus uses a large amount of chemical detergents, thereby providing a major cause of environmental pollution. These problems, in turn, lead to other problems, such as burdening operators with excessive material resource consumption and high wash water reprocessing costs and users with high car wash costs and expressing car wash quality complaints due to excessive surface friction. To provide a fundamental factor.

The present invention has been made to solve the above-described problems according to the prior art, and an object of the present invention is to provide a cleaning device capable of removing foreign substances with an operating principle of smoothly and evenly rubbing a vehicle surface while injecting steam.

In order to achieve the above object, the cleaning device according to an embodiment of the present invention, the cleaning device installed in the car wash system, the rotating body having a cylindrical shape with a through hole in the center; A rotating motor for rotating the rotating body; And a spiral washing tool coupled to the rotating body through a connecting member and having a spiral shape.

In this embodiment, the steam pipe is coupled through the through hole of the rotating body, the steam injection port is formed toward one side; may further include.

In this embodiment, the hot water pipe is coupled to surround the steam pipe, the hot water pipe is formed toward one side; may further include.

In this embodiment, the helical washing tool: may be a hollow spiral washing tool having a rectangular cross section.

In this embodiment, the spiral washing tool: a mesh of cylindrical shape; And washing wings coupled in a spiral shape along the outer circumference of the mesh.

In this embodiment, the spiral washing tool is: a spiral support of the spiral shape; And a cleaning brush coupled along the helical support.

In this embodiment, the rotating body may be respectively coupled to both ends of the spiral washing port.

In the present embodiment, a distance sensor for measuring the distance to the vehicle further includes, and can operate when the distance measured by the distance sensor is less than a predetermined distance.

According to the present invention, the cleaning holes are formed in a spiral shape, and thus, foreign substances can be removed while rubbing evenly on the vehicle surface.

In addition, according to the present invention it is possible to increase the washing efficiency while reducing the amount of water by steam injection. In other words, by mixing steam and some water to wash the most optimal conditions and the minimum water to save the water resources of increasing importance. In addition, due to the small amount of water used, there is no need to install water reuse facilities for existing automatic car wash systems.

In addition, the hermetic structure that blocks heat and steam enables saving of thermal energy and operation in all seasons regardless of freezing of winter water.

In the following, embodiments of the present invention are described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

In the following description of the present invention, if it is determined that detailed descriptions of related known functions or configurations may unnecessarily obscure the subject matter of the present invention, the detailed description will be omitted. In addition, the terms to be described later are terms set in consideration of functions in the present invention, and these terms may vary according to the intention or custom of the producer producing the product, and the definition of the terms should be made based on the contents throughout the present specification. .

(First embodiment)

First, with reference to the accompanying drawings Figures 1 to 3 will be described a washing apparatus according to a first embodiment of the present invention.

FIG. 1 is a side view of a car washing system provided with a cleaning device according to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a front view of FIG. 1, and FIG. 3 is a side view of a main portion of the cleaning device according to the first embodiment of the present invention.

As shown, the washing apparatus (100,150) according to the first embodiment includes a car wash preparation room (3), a car wash room (4) and a car wash completion room (5), and a mobile car wash provided with a rail (2) at the bottom. It is installed and used in the system (1). However, it should be noted that the present invention is not particularly limited thereto, and may be applied to a fixed car wash system.

The washing apparatuses 100 and 150 may include ones in which the spiral washing holes 120 are installed vertically in the car wash system 1 and ones installed in the horizontal direction, and 150 may be installed horizontally. It will be described with reference to the cleaning device 100 installed. On the other hand, it is noted that the washing apparatus may be used to be installed inclined rather than vertical or horizontal.

The rotating body 110 of the cleaning device 100 has a cylindrical shape with a through hole formed in the center thereof. Rotating body 110 may be present in the upper and / or lower portion of the spiral washing port 120.

A rotating motor (not shown) rotates the rotating body 110. Note that the rotating motor may apply the rotational force to the rotating body 110 via the gear box as necessary.

The spiral washing tool is coupled to the rotating body 110 through the connecting member 111, and has a spiral shape. In the first embodiment, the spiral washing tool has a rectangular cross section, and a hollow spiral cleaning device 120 is used.

The steam pipe 112 is coupled through the through-hole of the rotating body 110, the steam injection port 114 is formed toward one side, and injects steam toward the vehicle surface. Compared to the use of liquid water and detergent, steam has the advantage of high washing efficiency and low amount of waste water while using a small amount of water.

A distance sensor (not shown) measures the distance to the vehicle. The cleaning device 100 may operate when the distance measured by the distance sensor is less than or equal to a predetermined distance to reduce energy waste due to unnecessary operation, and maintain the minimum working distance so that the device does not damage the vehicle surface.

In the washing apparatuses 100 and 150 having such a configuration, when the vehicle approaches the washing apparatus 100, the distance sensor detects the washing apparatus 100 and 150 so that the washing apparatuses 100 and 150 operate.

The washing apparatuses 100 and 150 rotate the washing machine 120 by the rotation of the rotating bodies 110 and 130, thereby removing foreign substances on the surface of the vehicle body by friction and steam between the vehicle body and the washing machine washing machine 120. . At this time, since the cleaning hole is formed in a spiral, it is possible to rub evenly on the surface of the vehicle body.
