Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of car wash machine technology, specifically relating to a car wash machine anti-fall protection mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] A car wash machine is a machine that uses computer-controlled brushes and high-pressure water to automatically clean cars. It can be divided into: automatic car wash machines, self-service car wash machines, and coin-operated car wash machines. It mainly consists of a control system, electrical circuits, air circuits, water circuits, and mechanical structures. Car wash machines are characterized by simple operation, attractive appearance, and minimal damage to car paint. In recent years, they have been widely used in the automotive service industry.

[0003] Chinese patent application number 201920060090.1 discloses a car wash machine anti-fall mechanism. When the car wash machine blower system is in normal use, the sling pulls up the locking plate, causing the locking plate to disengage from the locking slot. When the sling breaks, under the action of the tension spring, the locking plate quickly locks into the locking slot, thereby locking the car wash machine blower system and fixing it to the column, preventing the car wash machine blower system from falling and being damaged, and preventing the car wash machine blower system from falling and damaging the vehicle, thus preventing the occurrence of safety accidents.

[0004] However, in existing car wash machines, the overhead crane travels along the track via a lateral moving mechanism. If the moving mechanism or the track becomes misaligned, there is a risk that the overhead crane may fall off the track, causing a major accident. To address these shortcomings, this invention focuses on improving and optimizing the aforementioned structure, greatly reducing the risk of accidents. Utility Model Content

[0030] Working principle: All electrical components mentioned in this application are connected to an external power supply and control switch during use. After the utility model is installed, first check the installation, fixation, and safety protection of the utility model, and then it can be used. During use, the car to be washed is driven into the frame 1. The motor 42 drives the rotating shaft 43 to rotate, which in turn drives the synchronous pulley 44 to rotate. The synchronous pulley 44 meshes with the synchronous belt 45, driving the overhead crane 3 to move on the track 2. During the movement of the overhead crane 3, the roller 48 moves within the track 2. During the movement, the water spray plate 12 is activated to wash the car. If the overhead crane 3 deviates and falls during the movement, it will land on the safety track 7. The mounting plate 6 will land on the safety track 7. The base plate 61 and the limit bolt 11 are located on both sides of the safety track 7 to ensure that the safety plate 6 will not fall off the safety track 7 and will not hit the car being washed, thus avoiding major losses.
