Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of car washers, and in particular to a conveying and guiding device, method and system for an unmanned car washer. Background Art

[0002] An unmanned car wash is a type of intelligent and automated car wash that provides efficient and convenient car wash services without human intervention. Currently, unmanned tunnel car washes on the market generally use a double-sided chain plate track system to automatically complete car washing. In this system, the car must be in P gear to ensure the normal operation of the chain plate conveyor mechanism. In contrast, traditional tunnel-type manned car washes require the car to be in N gear. Due to the difference in operating modes, the user experience of unmanned and manned car washes differs significantly. Currently, due to the different conveyor track design of double-sided chain plate track equipment compared to manned equipment, its investment cost is significantly increased, approximately N times the cost of the original conveyor track (N value is between 3 and 6). In addition, the civil construction process is more complex, costing approximately M times the original cost (M value is between 2 and 4). More importantly, existing manned equipment cannot be directly converted to unmanned equipment through simple optimization and improvement to meet operational needs. In view of this, a new conveyor guidance device, method, and system for unmanned car washes is urgently needed.

[0003] After searching, the Chinese invention patent with announcement number "CN109131236A" discloses "an unattended car wash guidance device and system". The application sets up display devices on both sides of the car wash machine to output driving prompt information to the user, so that the user can clearly understand the vehicle's driving instructions through the display device when driving the vehicle into the designated car wash location, and can quickly adjust according to the driving instruction information.

[0004] In addition, the Chinese invention patent with announcement number "CN115179901A" discloses "an unmanned fully automatic car wash machine guiding device". This application adopts parallel and directional input and output to enter the range of the car wash machine, and drives the car to adjust to the center through the left and right tilt rollers, so that the car is centered when entering the conveyor belt. The conveyor belt is equipped with a detection unit at each process entry interface of the car wash machine, which can activate the corresponding control switch. The control switch controls the conveyor belt to perform retention, deceleration and other commands, and cooperates with various process mechanisms in the car wash machine to achieve efficient cleaning, so that the cleaning effect of the car wash machine is better than that of traditional uniform speed traction during the timed and long cleaning process.

[0005] However, the devices disclosed in the existing public technologies still have several technical limitations in actual application, mainly manifested as follows: the device is not equipped with a dynamic correction system for the vehicle wheel trajectory. When facing vehicles with different wheelbases and tire widths, its guidance accuracy is significantly reduced. When there is a deviation between the vehicle wheelbase parameters and the preset track parameters, the wheel and the guide components are prone to asymmetric contact, which to a certain extent causes the vehicle posture to shift during the cleaning process of the car wash. In addition, the above-mentioned disclosed device and the supporting system method need to lay extended tracks and configure multiple sets of guide components during the infrastructure implementation phase, which significantly increases the construction cost and generates a large space occupancy rate, which seriously restricts the modular deployment and multi-scenario application expansion of unmanned car washers. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The object of the present invention is to provide a conveying and guiding device, method and system for an unmanned car washing machine to solve the problems raised in the above background technology.

[0007] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0008] In the first aspect, a conveying and guiding device for an unmanned car washing machine is proposed, which is installed in a groove provided on the bottom surface of the unmanned car washing machine body, and includes:

[0009] The transverse track piece is fixedly installed horizontally in the groove at the entrance end of the unmanned car washing machine body;

[0010] The limiting track member is mechanically connected to the transverse track member by a sliding assembly method and is arranged in an adjustment groove connected to the entrance groove. The spatial positioning of the limiting track member is adjusted by the transverse track member according to the distance between the contours of the two sides of the vehicle;

[0011] The transport track is installed in the assembly groove on the side of the unattended car washing machine body away from the adjustment groove;

[0012] The working surfaces of the limiting rail parts, the transport rail parts and the vehicle wheels are all equipped with protective components. The protective components drive the chain to achieve synchronous displacement through the sprocket transmission mechanism. The protective components correct the direction of travel during the transmission process according to the tread width of the vehicle wheel body.

[0013] The protective component includes:

[0014] The sleeve has two ends respectively connected to the surfaces of the chains on both sides of the sprocket transmission mechanism. A primary sensing pedal is fixedly installed in the middle of the outer surface of the sleeve for forming contact with the tread. Two protective pedals that can slide along the axial direction of the sleeve are symmetrically arranged on the outside of the sleeve. The protective pedals are controlled by the driving device inside the sleeve. Secondary sensing pedals are integrated at the outer edges of the two protective pedals and are used to contact the sidewall curved surface. When the primary sensing pedal contacts the tread, the driving device is triggered to control the drive. After the secondary sensing pedal is fully in contact with the sidewall, the driving device control is terminated.

[0015] As a further preferred embodiment of the present technical solution, a number of guide guardrails designed based on the width of the transport track member are provided on both sides of the connection area between the transport track member and the transverse track member to guide the vehicle to transition from the transverse track member to the transport track member.

[0016] As a further preferred embodiment of the present technical solution, a screw-on cover is installed at the mouth of the sleeve through a threaded fit, wherein a telescopic screw-on rod threadedly fitted therewith is provided at the central axial position of the inner cavity of the screw-on cover and the central axial position of the bottom end of the outer tube of the sleeve, and the axial ends of each telescopic screw-on rod are respectively connected to the node surfaces of the chains on both sides of the sprocket transmission mechanism;

[0017] Assembly notches are symmetrically provided on both sides of the sleeve surface. The driving device is a micro bidirectional electric push rod with an integrated power supply module. Driving rods are fixed on the surfaces of both ends of the micro bidirectional electric push rod. One end of the driving rod passes through the assembly notch and forms a fixed connection with the protective pedal.

[0018] As a further preferred embodiment of the present technical solution, the transverse track member includes:

[0019] The coordinated track is fixedly installed inside the groove at the entrance end, and its surface is kept flush with the horizontal surface of the unmanned car washing machine body;

[0020] An electric damping telescopic machine is installed at the end of the cooperative track adjacent to the transport track member. The telescopic shaft of the electric damping telescopic machine is accommodated in the inner cavity of the cooperative track and is fixed to the transmission frame.

[0021] The cooperative track is provided with connection notches designed according to the adjustment groove width parameters on both sides of the end away from the electric damping telescopic machine. The transmission frame forms a sliding assembly with the cooperative track through the connection notches. The cooperative track forms a mechanical connection with one end of the transmission frame through the connection notch and one end of the surface of the limiting track member.

[0022] As a further preferred embodiment of the present technical solution, a restraining component is installed outside the cooperative track at a position adjacent to the electric damping telescopic machine for correcting the moving direction of the vehicle;

[0023] The restraining component includes:

[0024] Two transmission joints are evenly fixed at both ends of the side of the cooperative track away from the transport track member; the carrying frame is fixed on the other side of the cooperative track, and a threaded screw structure is installed in the carrying frame. The thread of the screw in the threaded screw structure consists of two opposite threads. A blocking plate fixed in the carrying frame is installed at the intersection of the two threads on the outside of the screw. The axial ends of the screw are respectively screwed with a connecting seat slidably connected to the carrying frame;

[0025] A transmission arm is hingedly installed between the connecting seat and the transmission joint at the same axial position, and a movable notch for allowing the transmission arm to move is provided at the contact position between the transmission arm and the transmission joint;

[0026] As the threaded screw structure operates, the screw changes the relative position between the two transmission arms by adjusting the position of the connecting seat. The two transmission arms form a guide clamping opening based on the relative position change, and the tire guides the steering based on the guide clamping opening to correct the direction of vehicle movement.

[0027] As a further preferred embodiment of the present technical solution, the position-limiting track member includes:

[0028] Rollers that can move along the width of the adjusting groove are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the bottom end of the load-bearing frame, and a contact plate for tire support is integrated in the middle end of the load-bearing frame. Sprocket grooves for installing the sprocket transmission mechanism are provided at the bottom of the inner walls on both sides of the load-bearing frame, and unit mounting grooves are symmetrically provided on the top of the load-bearing frame. Damping rods are fixed in the unit mounting grooves, and an electronic rotating joint with a reset function is fixedly connected to the surface of the damping rod, and a limit baffle in contact with the curved surface of the tire is fixedly connected in the electronic rotating joint.

[0029] As a further preferred embodiment of the present technical solution, the transport track member includes:

[0030] Two assembly plates are arranged parallel to the inner wall of the assembly groove. A tire contact bearing plate is fixed across the top of the assembly plates. A plurality of support reinforcement seats are provided on the side of the assembly plates adjacent to the inner wall of the assembly groove. An equal number of corresponding stabilizing seats are provided on the bottom of the assembly plates. The top surface of the stabilizing seats contacts the bottom surface of the bearing plate and is used to disperse the stress applied by the tire to the surface of the bearing plate.

[0031] The sprocket transmission mechanism arranged inside the transport track member is assembled and installed on the outer surfaces of the two groups of assembly plates and does not interfere with the reinforcement seat.

[0032] As a further preferred embodiment of the present technical solution, a limited height frame is provided outside the entrance area of the unmanned car washing machine body, and visual monitoring components and power supply control terminals are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the entrance of the unmanned car washing machine body, and the power supply control terminal and the visual monitoring components are orthogonally distributed along the axial direction of the limited height frame;

[0033] The multifunctional power supply control terminal is used to provide continuous energy supply for the transverse track parts, limit track parts and transport track parts, and the visual monitoring component is used to collect vehicle parameters in real time.

[0034] In the second aspect, in order to improve the above technical solution, the present invention also proposes an implementation method of an unmanned car washing machine conveying and guiding device, which is based on the above-disclosed unmanned car washing machine conveying and guiding device, and includes:

[0035] The vehicle parameters of the vehicle to be cleaned are obtained in real time based on the visual monitoring component. The vehicle parameters include tire tread width, sidewall curvature radius, vehicle wheelbase length, and the distance between the two sides of the vehicle;

[0036] According to the obtained parameters of the distance between the contours on both sides of the vehicle, the distance between the limit rail parts is adjusted to match the distance between the contours on both sides of the vehicle;

[0037] According to the obtained tire tread width parameters, the micro bidirectional electric push rod inside the protective component is driven to control the synchronous displacement of the two protective pedals along the axial direction of the sleeve until the secondary sensing pedal contacts the sidewall surface;

[0038] The electronic rotary joint dynamically adjusts the inclination angle of the internal limit baffle of the limit track based on the curvature radius data of the sidewall surface to ensure that the tire's travel trajectory and the center axis of the limit track remain dynamically aligned;

[0039] When the vehicle wheel enters the connection area between the transverse rail and the transport rail, the threaded screw structure of the restraining component is activated, and the two connecting seats on both sides move toward each other through the bidirectional thread of the screw, causing the transmission arm to deflect at an angle based on the movable notch, forming a guide clamping opening that matches the travel direction of the vehicle wheel;

[0040] When the vehicle moves along the transport track, the sprocket transmission mechanism drives the protective component to move synchronously with the chain, the primary sensing pedal fits the tread, and triggers the electric damping retractor to operate, so that the secondary sensing pedal fits the side of the tire, limiting the steering angle of the vehicle in the unmanned car washing machine body.

[0041] On the third aspect, in order to further improve the above technical solution, the present invention also proposes a conveying and guiding system for an unmanned car washing machine, which uses the implementation method of the above-disclosed conveying and guiding equipment for an unmanned car washing machine.

[0042] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0043] The conveying and guiding equipment, method, and system of the unmanned car washing machine utilizes protective components installed in the limiting track and the transport track to trigger the electric damping telescopic mechanism to start when the vehicle's tire contacts the primary sensing pedal in the protective component, and to cause the two secondary sensing pedals to move toward each other to limit the tire's position. This allows the vehicle to maintain a stable driving trajectory while being washed in the unmanned car washing machine, effectively avoiding the problem of poor washing results caused by tire shaking or deviation.

[0044] In addition, the visual monitoring component collects vehicle parameters in real time, driving the electric damping telescopic mechanism built into the transverse track to control the displacement of the transmission frame, so that the load-bearing frame can achieve synchronous displacement along the adjustment groove to match the tire spacing. The restraining component adopts a bidirectional threaded screw transmission structure to drive the connecting seats on both sides to produce opposite displacement. The movement of the transmission arm at the movable notch forms a guide clamping opening that precisely corresponds to the direction of travel of the wheel body, completing the real-time offset correction of the vehicle's moving axis.

[0045] It should also be added that by installing the transverse rail parts, limit rail parts and transport rail parts at the entrance of the unattended washing machine using an embedded groove assembly design, not only the installation steps are simplified, but also it is ensured that the various rail parts can remain tightly connected during long-term use, effectively improving the overall stability and durability of the car washing machine. At the same time, it also provides great convenience for possible equipment upgrades or repairs in the future, reducing the time and cost consumption caused by equipment disassembly and reinstallation, making the operation of the unattended car washing machine more efficient and reliable.

The design of keeping the surface of the cooperative track 101 flush with the horizontal plane of the unmanned car washing machine body 5 ensures the stability and smoothness of the wheels during the transportation process, and avoids vehicle deviation or jamming caused by contact between the wheels and the track.

[0059] The electric damping telescopic machine 110 is installed at the end of the cooperative track 101 adjacent to the transport track member 4 . The telescopic shaft of the electric damping telescopic machine 110 is accommodated in the inner cavity of the cooperative track 101 and is fixed to the transmission frame 102 .

The thread of the screw 105 in the threaded screw structure 104 consists of two opposite threads. At the intersection of the two threads outside the screw 105, a blocking plate 106 fixed in the carrying frame 108 is sleeved. The axial ends of the screw 105 are respectively screwed with a connecting seat 107 that is slidably connected to the carrying frame 108.

[0088] Step S200: Based on the obtained parameters of the distance between the contours on both sides of the vehicle, the distance between the limiting track members 2 is adjusted to match the distance between the contours on both sides of the vehicle.

[0089] Specifically, during actual operation of step S200, the linkage rod is first driven to rotate by the driving motor 208, and the linkage rod drives the two transmission sprockets 207 to rotate synchronously, and the transmission sprocket 207 drives the transmission chain 211 to move, and then drives the load-bearing frame 201 to move along the width direction of the adjustment groove until the spacing of the limiting track parts 2 matches the spacing of the contours on both sides of the vehicle.

[0090] Step S300: According to the acquired wheel tread width parameters, the micro bidirectional electric push rod 905 inside the protective component 9 is driven to control the two protective pedals 904 to synchronously displace along the axial direction of the sleeve 901 until the secondary sensing pedal 908 contacts the sidewall curved surface.

[0091] Specifically, during actual operation of step S300, the primary sensing pedal 906 first contacts the tire tread to trigger an electrical signal, and the electrical signal is transmitted to the integrated power supply module of the micro bidirectional electric push rod 905. After receiving the electrical signal, the integrated power supply module controls the micro bidirectional electric push rod 905 to start, and the micro bidirectional electric push rod 905 pushes the protective pedal 904 to move axially along the sleeve 901 through the driving rods 903 at both ends until the secondary sensing pedal 908 contacts the tire side surface. At this time, the micro bidirectional electric push rod 905 stops running and the displacement adjustment of the protective pedal 904 is completed. Through such a design, the protective component 9 can be adaptively adjusted according to the width of the tire to ensure the stability and safety of the tire during transmission.

[0092] Step S400: The electronic rotary joint 202 dynamically adjusts the inclination angle of the internal limiting baffle 203 of the limiting track member 2 based on the sidewall surface curvature radius data to ensure that the tire travel track and the central axis of the limiting track member 2 remain dynamically aligned.

[0093] Specifically, during the actual operation of step S400, the electronic rotating joint 202 receives the curvature radius data and adjusts the inclination angle of the limit baffle 203. When the vehicle tire moves onto the limit track member 2, the tire curved surface contacts the limit baffle 203, and the limit baffle 203 is subjected to force and rotates around the damping rod 210, while driving the electronic rotating joint 202. The electronic rotating joint 202 dynamically adjusts the inclination angle of the limit baffle 203 according to the preset curvature radius data to ensure that the tire travel trajectory and the central axis of the limit track member 2 remain dynamically aligned. Such a design can further improve the stability and safety of the vehicle during transmission.

[0094] Step S500: When the vehicle wheel enters the connection area between the transverse rail member 1 and the transport rail member 4, the threaded screw structure 104 of the constraint component is started, and the connecting seats 107 on both sides are driven to move toward each other through the bidirectional thread of the screw 105, causing the transmission arm 111 to produce an angular deflection based on the movable notch 109, thereby forming a guide clamping opening that matches the direction of travel of the vehicle wheel.

[0095] Specifically, during the actual operation of step S500, the motor starts, and the motor shaft drives the screw 105 to rotate. Since the screw 105 has two threads in opposite directions, the connecting seats 107 on the two threads will move toward the two ends of the screw 105 respectively during the screw 105 rotation. However, due to the presence of the blocking plate 106, the two connecting seats 107 actually move toward each other within the mounting frame 108. As the connecting seat 107 moves, the transmission arm 111 hinged to the connecting seat 107 will also undergo angular deflection. Since a movable notch 109 is hingedly installed between the transmission arm 111 and the transmission joint, the transmission arm 111 can move based on the movable notch 109, thereby forming a guide clamping opening. The shape and size of this guide clamping opening will be dynamically adjusted according to the direction and position of the vehicle wheel body, thereby ensuring that the vehicle wheel body can be accurately guided onto the transport track member 4 and maintain the correct direction of travel.

[0096] Step S600: When the vehicle moves along the transport track 4, the sprocket transmission mechanism drives the protective component 9 to move synchronously with the chain, the primary sensing pedal 906 fits the tread, and triggers the electric damping telescopic machine 110 to run, so that the secondary sensing pedal 908 fits the side of the tire, limiting the steering angle of the vehicle in the unmanned car washing machine body 5.

It should be noted that the conveying and guiding system for an unmanned car washing machine uses an implementation method of a conveying and guiding device for an unmanned car washing machine.
