CAR CLEANING SYSTEM FOR CAR WASHES

摘要

CAR CLEANING SYSTEM FOR CAR WASHES In a car cleaning system for car washes having a car conveying device, a cleaning element which extends transversely to the direction of travel of the car. The cleaning element is held at its ends on a pair of lever arms which are swingable about a fixed swivel joint and can be changed in position in a manner corresponding to the contour of the car as viewed from the side of the car. The pair of lever arms is swingably guided in such a way that at the start of the cleaning process the lever arms are inclined obliquely downwardly in the direction opposite the direction of travel of the car and at the end of the cleaning process they are inclined obliquely downwardly in the same direction as the direction of travel of the car, terminating approximately in the region of the bottom of the car. The cleaning element is arranged for translation of the pair of lever arms along the lever path, and is movable in such a manner that both at the beginning and at the end of the cleaning process it is at the lower end of the lever arms.
