Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of intelligent car wash, specifically relating to an automated intelligent car wash machine. Background Technology

[0002] Most car wash machines on the market use a single crossbeam as a guide rail for their sliding side brushes. The brush's traveling mechanism is guided by multiple guide wheels that encircle the crossbeam. The translation drive motor is located on the upper part of the guide rail, and the brush rod rotation motor is located on the lower part. In existing technology, because the brush rod has a cantilever structure, its lower end is prone to centrifugal motion during rotation. The placement of the rotation motor on the lower part of the guide rail further increases the possibility of centrifugal motion. This centrifugal motion causes irregular changes in the amount of contact between the brush bristles and the car body, which affects the cleaning effect and the lifespan of the structure. In addition, the distance between the rotation motor and the brush bristles is too close, and the outer casing is exposed to the water spray environment, requiring extremely high protection levels for the motor casing. After long-term use, corrosion of the motor casing can easily lead to electrical leakage accidents. Furthermore, the brush rod flange shaft is directly installed in the hollow shaft of the motor, making disassembly and assembly difficult. Utility Model Content
