[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of vehicle cleaning equipment, specifically a tire cleaning device for engineering vehicles. Background Technology

[0002] Construction vehicles, such as excavators, dump trucks, and concrete mixer trucks, frequently operate in harsh environments such as construction sites and mines, and their tires easily accumulate large amounts of mud, sand, and other contaminants. Before leaving the construction site, the tires must be washed to prevent pollution of city roads.

[0003] Current tire cleaning methods mostly involve manual handheld high-pressure water gun washing. This method is not only inefficient and consumes a lot of water, but also results in uneven cleaning, especially in removing dirt deeply embedded in the tire treads. There are also some automatic cleaning devices, but most of them have complex structures and a single cleaning angle, making them ineffective at cleaning the tire sidewalls and treads.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for an automated cleaning device that is highly efficient, effective, and capable of thoroughly cleaning both the tire sidewalls and treads simultaneously, while also being stable and reliable in operation. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the above-mentioned technical defects and provide a tire cleaning device for engineering vehicles.

[0006] To solve the above problems, the technical solution of this utility model is: a tire cleaning device for engineering vehicles, including a base, and protective plates are installed on both sides of the base;

[0007] A fixing groove is provided in the middle of the top surface of the base, and cleaning grooves are symmetrically provided on both sides. Multiple grid plates are installed above the cleaning grooves. A water supply pipe is provided on one side of the base. Multiple branch pipes that pass through the base are fixed to the water supply pipe. An inner spray pipe and an outer spray pipe are respectively installed on both sides of each cleaning groove. A vertical pipe is fixed to the middle of the cleaning groove. A horizontal spray pipe is installed at the top of the vertical pipe in the grid groove of the grid plate. Several nozzles are provided on the inner spray pipe, the outer spray pipe and the horizontal spray pipe.

[0008] Multiple brush rollers are rotatably mounted inside the cleaning tank below the grid plate. The upper part of the brush roller is located in the grid groove of the grid plate, and the roller shaft at one end of the brush roller extends into the fixed groove. A drive assembly for driving the brush roller to rotate is installed in the fixed groove.

[0009] Furthermore, a pad is provided at both the inlet and outlet of the base, and the cross-section of the pad is triangular.

[0010] Furthermore, the bottom surface of the cleaning tank is inclined, and a drain pipe connected to the cleaning tank is provided on the side of the base.

[0011] Furthermore, the nozzle is a fan-shaped nozzle, and a control valve is installed on the vertical pipe.

[0012] Furthermore, the horizontal spray pipes and brush rollers are arranged in an alternating manner.

[0013] Furthermore, the drive includes pulleys mounted on the roller shaft of the brush roller, with adjacent pulleys connected by a belt, a motor installed inside the fixing groove, the output shaft of the motor connected to the roller shaft of a brush roller, and a cover plate installed on the top of the fixing groove.

[0014] Furthermore, the device also includes an electronic control system, which includes a control cabinet and sensors for detecting the position of the vehicle's tires. The controller inside the control cabinet controls the start and stop of the device based on the signals from the sensors.

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the present invention provides a tire cleaning device for engineering vehicles, which mainly includes a base 1, a water spraying system and a brushing system.

[0024] The base 1 serves as the main support structure, with protective plates 2 installed on both sides to prevent water splashing. A long, narrow mounting groove is located in the center of the top surface of the base 1 to accommodate the drive assembly. Two cleaning tanks are symmetrically positioned on either side of the mounting groove. Multiple grating plates 3 are laid above the cleaning tanks, allowing vehicle tires to rest on them. Triangular pads 11 are installed at the inlet and outlet of the base 1 to facilitate vehicle entry. The bottom surface of the cleaning tank is sloped, with a drain pipe 12 connected at the lowest point for discharging wastewater.

[0025] The water spray system includes a main water supply pipe 4, branch pipes 5, inner spray pipes 6, outer spray pipes 7, vertical pipes 8, and horizontal spray pipes 9. The water supply pipe 4 connects to an external water source, such as a water pump. Branch pipes 5 extend from the water supply pipe 4 and pass through the sidewall of the base 1. At each cleaning tank location, the branch pipe 5 is equipped with an inner spray pipe 6 facing the inside of the tire and an outer spray pipe 7 facing the outside. Simultaneously, the branch pipe 5 also connects to a vertical pipe 8 in the middle of the cleaning tank. A horizontal spray pipe 9 is installed at the top of the vertical pipe 8, located in the gaps of the grid bars of the grating plate 3, with the nozzle facing upwards and directly towards the tire tread. All nozzles on the spray pipes are preferably fan-shaped nozzles to maximize coverage. A control valve can be installed on the vertical pipe 8 to switch the water flow in the horizontal spray pipe 9 as needed.

[0026] The scrubbing system includes multiple brush rollers 10 and a drive assembly. The brush rollers 10 are rotatably mounted within the cleaning tank via bearings, with their upper parts extending through gaps in the grating plate 3, slightly above the surface of the grating plate 3 to contact the tires. The roller shaft at one end of each brush roller 10 extends into a central fixed groove. The drive assembly includes pulleys 13 mounted on each roller shaft, with adjacent pulleys 13 connected by belts 14. A motor 15 is mounted within the fixed groove, its output shaft connected to the roller shaft of one of the brush rollers 10. When the motor 15 operates, it drives all the brush rollers 10 to rotate synchronously via belt drive. The top of the fixed groove is enclosed by a cover plate 16 for safety and dust prevention.

[0027] In addition, the device is equipped with an electrical control system, including a control cabinet 17 and sensors 18. Sensors 18 are preferably through-beam photoelectric sensors, installed at the entrance and exit respectively, to detect vehicle entry and exit. The PLC or microcontroller controller inside the control cabinet 17 automatically controls the start and stop of the water pump and motor 15 based on the signals from the sensors 18. A touch screen can be installed on the cabinet door of the control cabinet 17 for setting parameters such as cleaning delay and displaying operating status.

[0028] Working principle: The vehicle slowly drives onto the cleaning device. When the inlet sensor detects the tire entering, a signal is transmitted to the controller, which then starts the water pump and motor 15. High-pressure water simultaneously washes the tire from the inside, outside, and top, while the brush roller 10 rotates at high speed to scrub the tire sidewalls and tread. The vehicle continues to move slowly forward, and all parts of the tire are thoroughly cleaned in sequence. When the outlet sensor detects that the tire has completely left, the controller shuts off the water pump and motor after a delay, completing one cleaning cycle. The washed-off sludge is discharged with the water flow through the inclined plane and exits through the drain pipe 12.
