摘要:
A system for modifying process data of a car wash based on captured evaluations of vehicle washes performed on the car wash, comprising: a set of mobile terminals, each adapted to perform an algorithmic evaluation process; and a control module, implemented on the car wash, for controlling and/or regulating the car wash based on the detected feedback signals encoding evaluations of vehicle washes performed on the car wash, and in data communication with the mobile terminals via the control interface.

A component for a vehicle wash system includes a frame and a hub portion rotatably secured to the frame. The hub portion includes an axis of rotation and an outer surface. A plurality of media elements are secured to the hub portion. The media elements include a flexible, self-supporting material such that the plurality of media elements can retain substantially the same shape when the hub portion is rotating at both high and low RPMs. The plurality of media elements are secured to the hub portion in a plurality of spaced apart rows that extend in a direction of the axis of rotation. Each of the plurality of spaced apart rows extending in a generally arcuate path along at least a portion of the hub portion.

A method and apparatus for removing foreign material from an upwardly oriented surface of a body-in-white. The apparatus includes a vacuum member mounted to a frame for removing foreign material from the associated upwardly oriented surface and a soft-material brush mounted to the frame rearward of the vacuum member as defined by the direction of forward travel of the vehicle. The apparatus may also vertical adjustment device(s) configured to adjust and maintain vertical distance between the apparatus relative to the associated vehicle. Also disclosed herein is a method for removing foreign material from an upwardly oriented surface of a body-in-white that comprises using bringing the apparatus defined herein in proximate contact with at least one surface of a body-in-white as it progresses down a vehicle assembly line.

A component for a vehicle wash system includes a frame and a hub portion that is rotatably connected to the frame. The hub portion has an inner surface, an outer surface and an axis of rotation. The hub portion includes a plurality of media elements secured thereto and arranged in a plurality of spaced apart rows that extend in a direction along the axis of rotation. The hub portion includes at least one translucent portion disposed on its outer surface. The translucent portion is disposed between a pair of adjacent rows of the plurality of spaced apart rows. The hub portion includes at least one illumination element for illuminating the at least one translucent portion such that said illuminated translucent portion is configured to be seen while the said hub portion rotates.

A rollover wash unit for a vehicle wash system includes interspaced lateral parts (2, 2′) fitted with guides (12, 12′), and a treatment device (7) that is received in the guide elements (8, 8′) via bearings (9, 9′), the guide elements being displaceable in the guides (12, 12′). In order to achieve an adaptation to the washing height, the guide elements (8, 8′) are configured to enable the bearings (9, 9′) to project beyond the guides (12, 12′) in a final position of the guide elements (8, 8′) in the guides (12, 12′), where the treatment device (7) projects upward beyond the lateral parts, (2, 2′) and/or an upper edge of a traverse (5) connecting the lateral parts (2, 2′), in an uppermost position of the guide elements (8, 8′).

The invention relates to a rollover wash unit for a vehicle wash system, comprising interspaced lateral parts (2, 2′) fitted with guides (12, 12′), and a treatment device (7) that is received in guide elements (8, 8′) via bearings (9, 9′), said guide elements being displaceable in the guides (12, 12′). In order to achieve an efficient, easy-to-implement and adequate adaptation to the washing height, the guide elements (8, 8′) are configured in such a manner that the bearings (9, 9′) project beyond the guides (12, 12′) in a final position (FIG. 4) of the guide elements (8, 8′) in the guides (12, 12′) and that the treatment device (7) projects upward beyond the lateral parts (2, 2′) and/or an upper edge of a traverse (5) connecting the lateral parts (2, 2′) in the final position (FIG. 4) of the guide elements (8, 8′).
摘要:
A rotary brush for vehicle washing systems comprising first, second and third sections of radially extending felt strips, the lengths of said strips being such that the overall outer diameter of the brush when rotating is uniform but the second or central section being mounted on a large diameter resilient cushion which reduces or eliminates the damaging effect of abrupt contact between the vehicle and a support shaft for the brush. In one preferred embodiment the cushion comprises a series of inflatable rubber inner tubes captured within a felt covering having a zipper and drawcords for installation and removal purposes. In a second preferred embodiment the cushion is comprised of open cell foam, which is cylindrical in nature and covered in the same manner as above.
