Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of car wash equipment technology, and in particular to a brushing mechanism and a car wash machine having the same. Background Technology

[0002] Most car wash machine brushes currently on the market are rotating roller brushes or disc brushes. The brushes come into contact with the vehicle surface, and water is sprayed onto the brushes or the areas where the brushes come into contact with the vehicle surface. The brushes rotate and rub, and the water helps to clean the vehicle.

[0003] However, rotating brushes generate significant centrifugal force during rotation, resulting in a large amount of splashed wastewater during washing. This wastewater splashes onto the car wash machine, affecting its corrosion resistance and making it prone to mold growth. It also splashes onto already cleaned areas, reducing the cleaning effect. Furthermore, rotating brushes take up a lot of space when the bristles are spread out. To avoid interference between the brushes, the design of the car wash machine usually needs to take into account the space required for the bristles to spread out, resulting in a larger overall size and footprint for the car wash machine. Utility Model Content

[0004] This utility model aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, this utility model proposes a scrubbing mechanism that can prevent sewage splashing, ensure the corrosion resistance of the scrubbing mechanism, reduce mold growth, ensure cleaning effect, reduce the range of motion of the cleaning parts, and reduce the space occupied by the scrubbing mechanism.

[0007] According to the present invention, the scrubbing mechanism is movably connected to the equipment support via a swing frame. The cleaning component is disposed on the swing frame and located on the side of the swing frame away from the equipment support. The driving component is used to drive the swing frame to move relative to the equipment support along the length direction of the equipment support, so that the cleaning component can move along the length direction of the equipment support with the swing frame, realizing the swinging motion of the cleaning component. Friction is generated between the cleaning component and the surface of the part to be cleaned, thus cleaning the surface of the part to be cleaned. Compared with the rotary brush in the prior art, it does not generate centrifugal force that causes a large amount of sewage to splash, thus avoiding sewage splashing onto the scrubbing mechanism, ensuring the anti-corrosion performance of the scrubbing mechanism, reducing the possibility of mold growth in the scrubbing mechanism, and minimizing sewage splashing onto the already cleaned area. No additional water shield is required, ensuring the cleaning effect of the scrubbing mechanism on the surface of the part to be cleaned, and relatively reducing the cost of the scrubbing mechanism.

[0013] In some embodiments, there are multiple second connecting plates, which are spaced apart along the length of the swing frame.

[0014] In some embodiments, the cleaning component is a strip brush extending along the length of the frame.

[0019] According to the embodiment of the present invention, the car wash machine is equipped with the aforementioned brushing mechanism, which is movably connected to the equipment support via a swing frame. The cleaning component is disposed on the swing frame and located on the side of the swing frame away from the equipment support. The driving component is used to drive the swing frame to move relative to the equipment support along the length direction of the equipment support, so that the cleaning component can move along the length direction of the equipment support with the swing frame, realizing the swinging motion of the cleaning component. Friction is generated between the cleaning component and the surface of the part to be cleaned, thus cleaning the surface of the part to be cleaned. Compared with the rotating brush in the prior art, it does not generate centrifugal force that causes a large amount of sewage to splash, thus avoiding sewage splashing onto the brushing mechanism, ensuring the anti-corrosion performance of the brushing mechanism, reducing the possibility of mold growth in the brushing mechanism, and minimizing sewage splashing onto the already cleaned area.

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0040] The brushing mechanism 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0041] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the brushing mechanism 100 according to an embodiment of the present utility model includes a device support 1, a swing frame 2, a cleaning component 3, and a drive assembly 4.

[0042] Specifically, see the attached document. Figure 1 and attached Figure 6 As shown, the equipment bracket 1 is along the first direction (e.g.) Figure 1 As shown, the equipment support 1 includes a column 11, a base plate 12, and a top plate 13. The column 11 extends along a first direction, and the base plate 12 and top plate 13 respectively cover the column 11 along its length (see attached diagram). Figure 1At both ends of the first direction shown, the column 11 is welded to the floor and the top plate 13. The bottom plate 12 is used to fix the entire equipment bracket 1 to the ground. The top plate 13 is used to close the end of the column 11 away from the bottom plate 12. When the brushing mechanism 100 is working, it can prevent sewage from splashing into the inside of the column 11, avoid affecting the anti-corrosion performance, reduce the possibility of mold growth, and prevent dust and debris from falling into the inside of the column 11 when the brushing mechanism 100 is stopped, thus preventing the accumulation of dust and debris inside the equipment bracket 1.

[0043] Further, see attached document. Figure 1 and attached Figure 3 As shown, the swing frame 2 is movably connected to the equipment support 1, and the swing frame 2 extends along the length of the equipment support 1 (see attached diagram). Figure 1 Extending in the first direction shown, the cleaning component 3 is disposed on the swing frame 2 and located on the side of the swing frame 2 opposite to the equipment support 1. The cleaning component 3 can move relative to the equipment support 1 along with the swing frame 2. The cleaning component 3 is adapted to contact the surface of the part to be cleaned. Through the movement of the cleaning component 3, friction can be generated with the surface of the part to be cleaned, thereby cleaning the surface of the part to be cleaned. Optionally, the cleaning component 3 is fixed to the swing frame 2 by adhesive bonding.

[0044] Furthermore, see the attached document. Figure 1 and attached Figure 2 As shown, the drive assembly 4 is mounted on the equipment bracket 1 and is used to drive the swing frame 2 to move relative to the equipment bracket 1 along the length direction of the equipment bracket 1. This allows the cleaning component 3 to move along the length direction of the equipment bracket 1 along with the swing frame 2, realizing the swinging motion of the cleaning component 3. Friction is generated between the cleaning component 3 and the surface of the part to be cleaned, thus cleaning the surface of the part. Compared with the rotary brush in the prior art, it does not generate centrifugal force that causes a large amount of sewage to splash, avoiding sewage splashing onto the brushing mechanism 100, ensuring the anti-corrosion performance of the brushing mechanism 100, reducing the possibility of mold growth on the brushing mechanism 100, and minimizing sewage splashing onto the already cleaned area. There is no need to add an additional water shield, ensuring the cleaning effect of the brushing mechanism 100 on the surface of the part to be cleaned, and relatively reducing the cost of brushing. At the same time, it can reduce the range of motion of the cleaning component 3 and reduce the space occupied by the brushing mechanism 100. For example, the part to be cleaned can be a vehicle, and the brushing mechanism 100 is used to clean the surface of the vehicle.

[0045] Preferably, such as Figure 1 As shown, the drive assembly 4 is located at one end of the length direction of the equipment bracket 1, so that the drive assembly 4 is located in the length direction of the swing frame 2 (see attached figure). Figure 1 The first direction shown is to one side, so that the drive component 4 can better drive the swing frame 2 to move relative to the equipment bracket 1 along the length direction of the equipment bracket 1, and avoid mutual interference between the drive component 4 and the swing frame 2.

[0046] According to the present invention, the scrubbing mechanism 100 is movably connected to the equipment support 1 via a swing frame 2. The cleaning component 3 is disposed on the swing frame 2 and located on the side of the swing frame 2 away from the equipment support 1. The driving component 4 is used to drive the swing frame 2 to move relative to the equipment support 1 along the length direction of the equipment support 1, so that the cleaning component 3 can move along the length direction of the equipment support 1 together with the swing frame 2, realizing the swinging motion of the cleaning component 3, generating friction between it and the surface of the part to be cleaned, and cleaning the surface of the part to be cleaned. Compared with the rotary brush in the prior art, it does not generate centrifugal force that causes a large amount of sewage to splash, which can prevent sewage from splashing onto the scrubbing mechanism 100, ensuring the anti-corrosion performance of the scrubbing mechanism 100, reducing the possibility of mold growth in the scrubbing mechanism 100, and can minimize the splashing of sewage onto the already cleaned area, eliminating the need for an additional water shield, ensuring the cleaning effect of the scrubbing mechanism 100 on the surface of the part to be cleaned, and relatively reducing the cost of the scrubbing mechanism 100. At the same time, it can reduce the range of motion of the cleaning component 3 and reduce the space occupied by the scrubbing mechanism 100.

[0047] In some embodiments of this utility model, reference is made to the appendix. Figure 2 As shown, the drive assembly 4 includes a transmission assembly 41 and a drive motor 42. The transmission assembly 41 is movably connected to the swing frame 2. The drive motor 42 is mounted on the equipment support 1 and connected to the transmission assembly 41, and is used to drive the transmission assembly 41 to move the swing frame 2. The axial direction of the motor shaft of the drive motor 42 is shown in the attached diagram. Figure 2 The second direction shown is perpendicular to the arrangement direction of the equipment bracket 1 and the swing frame 2 (see attached diagram). Figure 2 As shown in the third direction) and the length direction of the equipment bracket 1, the drive motor 42 has the advantages of strong power, fast response speed and convenient maintenance. It can drive the transmission component 41 to move more stably, so as to drive the swing frame 2 to move relative to the equipment bracket 1 along the length direction of the equipment bracket 1, realize the swing motion of the cleaning part 3, generate friction between it and the surface of the part to be cleaned, and clean the surface of the part to be cleaned.

[0048] In a further embodiment of this utility model, reference is made to the appendix. Figure 2 As shown, the transmission assembly 41 includes a reciprocating wheel 411 and a first connecting plate 412. The reciprocating wheel 411 is sleeved on the motor shaft of the drive motor 42 and rotates synchronously with the motor shaft. The two ends of the first connecting plate 412 are rotatably connected to the swing frame 2 and the reciprocating wheel 411, respectively, in a direction perpendicular to the axis of the reciprocating wheel 411 (see attached diagram). Figure 2In the cross-section of the second direction shown, the connection point between the first connecting plate 412 and the reciprocating wheel 411 is spaced apart from the center of the reciprocating wheel 411. When the brushing mechanism 100 is working, the drive motor 42 runs, and the motor shaft drives the reciprocating wheel 411 to rotate. Because the first connecting plate 412 is rotatably connected to the reciprocating wheel 411, and the connection point between the first connecting plate 412 and the reciprocating wheel 411 is spaced apart from the center of the reciprocating wheel 411, the first connecting plate 412 can be driven to move, thereby enabling the first connecting plate 412 to drive the swing frame 2 to reciprocate along the length direction of the equipment support 1, realizing the small-range swing of the cleaning part 3 to clean the surface of the part being cleaned.

[0049] like Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, a first mounting plate 21 is provided on the side surface of the swing frame 2 facing away from the cleaning component 3. The hinge shaft passes through both the first mounting plate 21 and the first connecting plate 412, thereby realizing the rotational connection between the first connecting plate 412 and the first mounting plate 21, and thus realizing the rotational connection between the first connecting plate 412 and the swing frame 2.

[0050] In a further embodiment of this utility model, reference is made to the appendix. Figure 2 and attached Figure 6 As shown, a motor mounting plate 14 is provided on the side of the equipment bracket 1 facing the swing frame 2. The motor mounting plate 14 is welded to the equipment bracket 1. The motor mounting plate 14 has mounting holes 141. The drive motor 42 is fixed on the motor mounting plate 14, and the motor shaft passes through the mounting hole 141 to connect with the reciprocating wheel 411. The reciprocating wheel 411 and the motor mounting plate 14 are stacked. The motor mounting plate 14 can fix the drive motor 42 on the equipment bracket 1 to ensure the reliability of the connection between the motor shaft and the reciprocating wheel 411.

[0051] It should be noted that the drive motor 42 is detachably connected to the motor mounting plate 14, which facilitates the assembly and disassembly of the drive motor 42, as well as its maintenance and replacement, thereby reducing the overall assembly and maintenance difficulty of the brushing mechanism 100. Preferably, the drive motor 42 and the motor mounting plate 14 are connected by fasteners, which ensures the connection between the drive motor 42 and the motor mounting plate 14, guarantees the stability and safety of the drive motor 42 assembly, facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the drive motor 42, facilitates its maintenance and replacement, and improves the assembly efficiency of the brushing mechanism 100.

[0052] In some embodiments of this utility model, reference is made to the appendix. Figure 1 and attached Figure 2As shown, the transmission assembly 41 also includes a second connecting plate 413. The second connecting plate 413 is disposed between the swing frame 2 and the equipment support 1, and both ends of the second connecting plate 413 are rotatably connected to the swing frame 2 and the equipment support 1, respectively. The second connecting plate 413 is drively connected to the first connecting plate 412. When the first connecting plate 412 drives the swing frame 2 to move, the second connecting plate 413 rotates relative to the swing frame 2 and the equipment support 1. The setting of the second connecting plate 413 can separate the swing frame 2 and the equipment support 1, avoiding mutual interference between the swing frame 2 and the equipment support 1. The presence of the second connecting plate 413 can indirectly connect the swing frame 2 and the equipment support 1. When the first connecting plate 412 drives the swing frame 2 to move, the second connecting plate 413 moves accordingly, realizing that the swing frame 2 moves relative to the equipment support 1 along the length direction of the equipment support 1, driving the cleaning component 3 to clean the surface of the component to be cleaned.

[0053] like Figure 2 As shown, the surfaces of the swing frame 2 and the equipment bracket 1 facing each other are respectively provided with a second mounting plate 22 and a third mounting plate 15. The two ends of the second connecting plate 413 are respectively hinged to the second mounting plate 22 and the third mounting plate 15, thereby realizing that the two ends of the second connecting plate 413 are respectively rotatably connected to the swing frame 2 and the equipment bracket 1.

[0054] In a further embodiment of this utility model, reference is made to the appendix. Figure 1 and attached Figure 6 As shown, there are multiple second connecting plates 413, which extend along the length of the swing frame 2 (see attached diagram). Figure 1 The first direction shown is spaced apart, and the pendulum 2 is connected to the equipment support 1 through multiple second connecting plates 413. This can improve the reliability and stability of the connection between the pendulum 2 and the equipment support 1, prevent the pendulum 2 from moving randomly relative to the equipment support 1, and prevent the drive component 4 from failing to drive the pendulum 2.

[0055] In a specific example, see Appendix Figure 1 and attached Figure 6 As shown, there are two second connecting plates 413. The two second connecting plates 413 are spaced apart along the length direction of the swing frame 2, and the two connecting plates are respectively connected to the two ends of the length direction of the swing frame 2. The swing frame 2 can be connected to the equipment support 1 from the two ends of the length direction of the swing frame 2, ensuring the reliability and stability of the connection between the swing frame 2 and the equipment support 1, and preventing the swing frame 2 from moving arbitrarily relative to the equipment support 1.

[0056] In some embodiments of this utility model, reference is made to the appendix. Figure 1 and attached Figure 3As shown, the cleaning component 3 is a strip brush extending along the length of the swing frame 2. It can increase the contact area between the cleaning component 3 and the cleaned item, increase the cleaning range of the cleaning component 3, improve the cleaning efficiency of the brushing mechanism, relatively reduce the distance that the cleaning component 3 needs to move along the length of the swing frame 2, reduce the difficulty of the drive component 4 driving the swing frame 2 to move along the length of the equipment support 1, and realize the swing frame 2 and the cleaning component 3 swinging slightly along the equipment support 1.

[0057] In some embodiments of this utility model, the cleaning component 3 is a fiber component or a foam component. When the cleaning component 3 is a fiber component, it is easy to clean and maintain, has a strong scrubbing ability, and can effectively remove stubborn stains from the surface of the item being cleaned. It extends into the tiny grooves and pores on the surface of the item being cleaned to thoroughly remove stains and avoid the problem of residue, achieving thorough cleaning. Furthermore, the fiber material of the cleaning component 3 is gentle and does not damage the surface, avoiding scratches or wear on the surface of the item being cleaned. Specifically, the cleaning component 3 includes multiple cleaning groups, which are spaced apart along the length of the frame 2. Each cleaning group includes multiple sub-cleaning components spaced apart along a second direction, and each sub-cleaning component is a fiber component.

[0058] When the cleaning component 3 is a foam cotton component, it is easy to clean and maintain, has good water absorption and moisture absorption, can quickly absorb liquid stains, reduce residue, keep the cleaning area dry, and improve cleaning efficiency. Furthermore, the foam cotton material of the cleaning component 3 is soft and gentle, ensuring that it effectively removes stains while protecting the surface of the cleaned item from damage. It should be noted that the cleaning component 3 can be a single piece of foam cotton extending along the length of the frame 2, which simplifies the connection process between the cleaning component 3 and the frame 2, and simplifies the assembly process of the brushing mechanism 100. Alternatively, the cleaning component 3 can be multiple separate foam cotton components arranged sequentially along the length of the frame 2, reducing the difficulty of connecting individual foam cotton components to the frame 2 and facilitating the assembly of the cleaning component 3 with the frame 2.

[0059] It should be noted that the cleaning component 3 is bonded to the frame 2, which is simple to operate and low in cost. This can reduce the overall production and processing cost of the brushing mechanism 100, ensure the connection strength between the cleaning component 3 and the frame 2, prevent the cleaning component 3 from falling off the frame 2, and ensure the stability and durability of the brushing mechanism 100.

[0060] In some embodiments of this utility model, the equipment support 1 and / or the swing frame 2 are made of steel, which ensures convenient installation of the equipment support 1 and / or the swing frame 2, guarantees the strength and rigidity of the equipment support 1 and / or the swing frame 2, ensures the safety and stability of the brushing mechanism 100, and also gives the equipment support 1 and / or the swing frame 2 a certain degree of corrosion resistance. It is understood that it is permissible for only the equipment support 1 to be made of steel, while the swing frame 2 is not; or it is permissible for only the swing frame 2 to be made of steel, while the equipment support 1 is not; or it is permissible for both the equipment support 1 and the swing frame 2 to be made of steel. For example, both the equipment support 1 and the swing frame 2 are welded from structural steel and ordinary steel plates.

[0061] In some embodiments of this utility model, the scrubbing mechanism 100 is used to scrub rail vehicles. By having the cleaning component 3 in large-area contact with the rail vehicle, the cleaning efficiency of the scrubbing mechanism 100 on the rail vehicle is improved. For example, the rail vehicle can be a traditional train, high-speed train, subway vehicle, light rail vehicle, maglev vehicle, etc.

[0062] This utility model also proposes a car wash machine having the brushing mechanism 100 of the above embodiments.

[0063] According to the embodiment of the present invention, the car wash machine is equipped with the aforementioned brushing mechanism 100. A swing frame 2 is movably connected to the equipment support 1. A cleaning component 3 is disposed on the swing frame 2 and located on the side of the swing frame 2 facing away from the equipment support 1. A driving assembly 4 drives the swing frame 2 to move relative to the equipment support 1 along the length of the equipment support 1, allowing the cleaning component 3 to move along the length of the equipment support 1 along with the swing frame 2. This achieves a swinging motion of the cleaning component 3, generating friction with the surface of the object being cleaned, thus cleaning the surface. Compared to the rotating brushes in the prior art, this design does not produce friction. The centrifugal force generates a large amount of wastewater splashing, which can prevent wastewater from splashing onto the scrubbing mechanism 100, ensuring the corrosion resistance of the scrubbing mechanism 100, reducing the possibility of mold growth on the scrubbing mechanism 100, and minimizing wastewater splashing onto already cleaned areas. This eliminates the need for an additional water shield, ensuring the cleaning effect of the scrubbing mechanism 100 on the surface of the cleaned parts, and relatively reducing the cost of the scrubbing mechanism 100. At the same time, it can reduce the range of motion of the cleaning parts 3, reduce the space occupied by the scrubbing mechanism 100, and thus reduce the overall size of the car wash machine and the floor space occupied by the car wash machine.

[0064] It should be noted that the scrubbing mechanism 100 can be installed on the side wall or the top wall of the car wash machine. When the scrubbing mechanism 100 is installed on the side wall of the car wash machine, when the equipment support 1 extends in the vertical direction, the swing frame 2 drives the cleaning component 3 to swing back and forth in the vertical direction. When the equipment support 1 extends in the front and back direction, the swing frame 2 drives the cleaning component 3 to swing back and forth in the front and back direction. When the scrubbing mechanism 100 is installed on the top wall of the car wash machine, when the equipment support 1 extends in the horizontal direction, the swing frame 2 drives the cleaning component 3 to swing back and forth in the horizontal direction. When the equipment support 1 extends in the front and back direction, the swing frame 2 drives the cleaning component 3 to swing back and forth in the front and back direction.

[0065] In some embodiments of this utility model, the device bracket 1 is positioned along the vertical direction (see attached diagram). Figure 1 Extending in the first direction shown, the swing frame 2 drives the cleaning component 3 to swing back and forth in the up and down direction. There are multiple brushing mechanisms 100, including multiple first brushing mechanisms and multiple second brushing mechanisms. The first brushing mechanisms and the second brushing mechanisms are located on opposite sides of the car wash machine, and the cleaning components 3 of the first brushing mechanism and the second brushing mechanism are located on opposite sides of the swing frame 2 of the first brushing mechanism and the swing frame 2 of the second brushing mechanism. The first brushing mechanism and the second brushing mechanism can clean the surface of the vehicle from opposite sides of the vehicle at the same time, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency and cleaning effect of the car wash machine, and further reducing the footprint of the car wash machine.

[0066] Specifically, the first and second brushing mechanisms are located on the left and right sides of the car wash machine, respectively.
