The present invention provides a vehicle
body position detection method for washing vehicles. The vehicle
body position detection method comprises the following steps: a measurer (1) measures the height of a vehicle body, a
detector (3) measures the position of a tire (71), the
contour line of the vehicle body is measured through an
image processor, the measurer (1) and the
detector (3) are connected with the
image processor through a line and an
electrical control module (4), the measurer (1), the
detector (3) and a camera (2) in the
image processor are fixed on a frame body (5), the frame body (5) is arranged on a vehicle washing frame (8) and can move back and forth by means of a driving mechanism, and the driving mechanism is connected with the
electrical control module (4). The vehicle
body position detection method for washing vehicles can measure the position values of the projecting portions such as retroreflectors, a baggage holder and the like on the vehicle
body contour, and the measurement is rapidly performed in a non-contact and
automation mode. Besides, the vehicle body position detection method for washing vehicles measures the tire orientation and the
wheelbase so as to perform special cleaning of tires, determine the head and
tail and in-out position condition of the vehicle and assist to determine the type of the vehicle.
