The present invention relates to a car wash apparatus, and more particularly, to a knob-type car wash apparatus in which automatic car washing is performed by spraying detergent water and washing water at a high pressure without a brush that is physically operated during car washing.

In general, the car washing device is a device for washing the vehicle while automatically or semi-automatically spraying detergent water and washing water. Conventional car washes have mostly been used in tunnels or mobile automatic car washes to perform the car wash while the rotary brush rotates along the surface of the vehicle body.

Conventional tunnel or mobile automatic car washes require a relatively large space for washing a car. That is, because the car wash is made while moving the vehicle to a certain length on the moving table is required for this space. In addition, the installation cost is increased due to the complicated composition for spraying detergent water and washing water, and in particular, a factor causing the user to be reluctant to clean the car due to a scratch on the surface of the vehicle due to the rotating brush during car wash (by brush wiping). Factor due to the generation of adsorption).

On the other hand, in the related art, in order to improve the problem of the brush-type automatic car wash device has been disclosed a knob-type automatic car wash device for performing a car wash by spraying high-pressure washing water and detergent water. However, such a nouveau type automatic car wash is automatically washed for cars of various shapes, and water injection is performed while the injection module rotates along the exterior shape of the target vehicle. In other words, the closer the nozzle is to the nozzle, the greater the jet nozzle is to the exterior of the vehicle.

However, this conventional nozzle type automatic car wash is sprayed while the injection module is rotated while the nozzle is placed close to the vehicle. When the nozzle block rotates due to a malfunction or a control error, the vehicle loses a great economic loss. This raises the issue that arises.

Accordingly, the present invention is not limited to the drawings presented below and may be embodied in other forms. Also, like reference numerals denote like elements throughout the specification. It should be noted that the same elements in the figures are denoted by the same numerals wherever possible.

Referring to FIG. 1, the present invention includes a structure 22 on both sides and an upper structure 21 supported by the structure 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 to cross the structure 22 and positioned below the upper structure 21. Here, the first injection module 30 is installed to enable its own rotation while lifting up and down by the elevating module 38. In addition, the structure 22 is provided with a second injection module 40 to move in the left and right directions. In addition, the upper structure 21 is provided with a controller 80 and a third injection module 50 for controlling each module.

According to the present invention having the above configuration, the front and upper surfaces of the vehicle are washed by the first injection module 30, and the side of the vehicle is washed by the second injection module 40.

Specifically, the first injection module 30 is moved up and down in the structure 22 by the elevating module 38, and is rotated in the elevating module 38. In addition, the first injection module 30 is provided with a plurality of injection nozzles are 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 a collision preventing means 100 so as not to cause a collision or scratch on the vehicle while approaching the outer surface of the vehicle at the time of washing.

Referring to FIG. 4, the anti-collision means 100 of the present invention includes a support portion 110 ′ extending inwardly from the edge portion 120 ′ and the edge portion 120 ′ exposed to the outside of the injection module body 30 f. Include. The edge 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 rotation direction of the injection module main body 30f which rotates to inject.

In addition, the support 110 is associated with the approximately '+' shape at the edge portion 120 '. In addition, the center frame portion 150 is formed in the shape of a rectangle in the center of the support (110).

Meanwhile, referring to FIGS. 5 and 6, the injection module main body 30f has a moving hole 30a through which the support 110 passes. The moving holes 30a and 30b are formed on four outer sides of the injection module main body 30f so that the support 110 passes therethrough. In addition, fixing pieces 31a, 31b, 31c, and 31d are respectively fixed to corners inside the injection module main body 30f.

One end of the springs S1 to S4 is fixed to the fixing pieces 31a, 31b, 31c, and 31d, respectively. On the other hand, the other end of each of the spring (S1 ~ S4) is fixed to the corner of the central frame portion 150.

Accordingly, the collision avoidance means 100 is installed in the state in which the injection module main body 30f is elastically supported by the springs S1 to S4. Accordingly, when the circular ring-shaped edge portion 120 ′ hits the object (vehicle exterior), the entire guide portion 120a is moved in one direction, and when the collision object is removed, the springs S1 to. It returns to the original state by S4).

11 to 14, 23, and 24, a fixing plate 300 is mounted on the center frame portion 150, and a sensing target member 350 is installed at the center of the fixing plate 300. At this time, the sensing object member 350 may be made of a material (iron component) in response to the magnetic. In contrast, the fixing plate 300 may be made of a transparent plastic material which is a nonmagnetic material.

10 and 15, a bracket member 250 is installed inside the injection module main body 30f. The bracket member 250 has an approximately 'L' shape. The long groove 251 is formed in the horizontal region of the bracket member 250 and the long hole 250h is formed in the vertical region. Here, the sensing member 200 is mounted in the long hole 250h of the bracket member 250. The sensing member 200 is disposed close to the sensing target member 350 as a proximity sensor so as to sense a magnetic material of the sensing target member 350. Meanwhile, as the proximity sensor, various sensors such as a photo sensor and a tact switch may be applied in addition to the magnetic sensor.

Meanwhile, referring to FIG. 20, the sensing member 200 may be disposed in the long hole 250h through the fixing member 200a to adjust the height up and down. Therefore, it is possible to easily implement the arrangement of the proximity sensor by adjusting the height of the sensing member 200 to be close to the sensing target member 350 during installation.

In addition, the installation may be made while flowing in the front and rear direction in the injection module main body 30f through the long groove 251 formed in the horizontal region of the bracket member 250. Accordingly, the installation can be made while easily adjusting the interval 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 the washing water or detergent water close to the exterior of the vehicle while the first injection module 30 rotates When the edge portion 120 ′ of the prevention means 100 strikes the outer surface of the vehicle, the guide parts 120a and 120b flow to one side.

As such, when the guide part 120a flows due to the impact lamp, the guide member 120a may be outside the limit of the detection area of the sensing member 200 in a state in which the sensing target member 350 installed in the center of the fixing plate 300 of the central frame part 150 is in close proximity. do. In other words, in the fine flow (flow during normal operation, not collision), the spring (S1 to S4) fixed to the corners to maintain the original state (flow state in the sensing area). On the other hand, when directly hit the outer surface of the vehicle, as described above the proximity to the sensing object member 350 is released, the sensing member 200 is out of the sensing area of the sensing object member 350, the non-magnetic of the fixed plate 300 The material regions are in close 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, it is returned to its original state by the spring (S1 ~ S4) respectively installed at the corner, in this state, the sensing member 200 recognizes that the collision state is released.

As described above, the present invention operates while the collision preventing means in the injection module main body is finely flowed by a plurality of springs installed therein during the general car wash. It works by maintaining a certain interval between them.

On the other hand, when the injection module hits the outer surface of the vehicle during the car wash due to some cause, the guide portion is moved in one direction, and the sensing target member 350 installed in the center frame portion 150 moves the sensing area of the sensing member 200. You get out. In this case, the sensing member recognizes the collision as well as stops the injection operation of the injection module 30, and can recognize the collision alarm to the operator, thereby further improving the stability of the device.

Meanwhile, referring to FIG. 22, in another embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of collision preventing modules 100a, 100b, and 100c are installed in the injection module 30. In addition, 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 anti-collision modules 100a, 100b, and 100c are disposed 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. Anti-collision module (100a, 100b) is included.

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, the outer diameter of the edge portion 120 'applied to the central collision preventing module is smaller than the outer diameter of the edge portion 120' applied to the peripheral collision preventing modules 100a and 100b as shown in FIGS. 23 and 24.

Through such a configuration, the present invention can arrange a plurality of anti-collision modules 100a, 100b, and 100c in the injection module 30 at regular intervals to fit the appearance of various vehicles, thereby increasing collision safety during car washing.

In addition, the present invention can be applied by varying the outer diameter of the edge portion 120 'applied to the collision avoidance module, so that the collision avoidance module is sprayed as close as possible to the vehicle depending on the appearance of the vehicle during the car wash. By doing so, collision safety can be further increased.

For example, if a relatively large peripheral collision avoidance module (for example, 100a and 100b of FIG. 22) hits the exterior of a vehicle during washing, stops spraying the washing water, and furthermore, a central collision prevention module having a relatively small diameter ( 100c) can be configured to completely stop the drive of the car wash device when hitting the vortex of the vehicle. In this embodiment, the spraying module rotates during the spraying process so that the spraying is performed in a state as close as possible to the exterior of the vehicle, thereby increasing the cleaning efficiency, and through the plurality of anti-collision modules 100a, 100b, and 100b. Stability can be increased.
