Description
Dispositif de lavage des roues d'un véhicule automobile La présenteDevice for washing the wheels of a motor vehicle This
invention concerne un dispositif de lavage des roues d'un véhicule automobile comportant une brosse de lavage circulaire en forme de plateau qui tourne autour d'un axe horizontal en étant mobile essentiellement en direction de cet axe de rotation par rapport à un bâti, The invention relates to a device for washing the wheels of a motor vehicle comprising a dish-shaped circular washing brush which rotates about a horizontal axis and is essentially movable in the direction of this axis of rotation with respect to a frame,

mobiles, on utilise de tels dispositifs pour les roues, c'est- mobile devices, such devices are used for the wheels, that is,
à-dire pour les jantes et les pneumatiques. Dans les dispositifs du genre annoncé, la brosse de lavage en forme de plateau est toujours coaxiale à son axe de rotation; en d'autres termes, son centre coïncide avec ledit axe de rotation. Cela assure for rims and tires. In devices of the kind described, the tray-shaped wash brush is always coaxial with its axis of rotation; in other words, its center coincides with said axis of rotation. This ensures

toyage est insuffisant dans nombre de cas. On a constaté que, si l'on utilise les dispositifs de lavage connus, il subsiste, In many cases, it is not enough. It has been found that, if the known washing devices are used, it remains,
en règle générale, des résidus de souillure dans les jantes. as a rule, residues of stains in the rims.
L'invention a par conséquent pour objet un dispositif de lavage du genre annoncé qui permette un parfait nettoyage The invention therefore relates to a washing device of the kind announced that allows a perfect cleaning
des roues, notamment des jantes, du véhicule automobile. wheels, especially rims, of the motor vehicle.
Ce dispositif de lavage est caractérisé par le fait This washing device is characterized by the fact
que le centre de la brosse de lavage est disposé excentrique- that the center of the washing brush is arranged eccentrically-
ment par rapport à l'axe de rotation de celle-ci. relative to the axis of rotation of the latter.
L'effet de lavage de la brosse en forme de plateau The washing effect of the tray-shaped brush
est considérablement amélioré par cette disposition excentrée. is greatly improved by this eccentric arrangement.
La souillure est beaucoup mieux éliminée des rigoles et de l'arrière des saillies des jantes. La brosse de lavage peut en outre avoir un plus petit diamètre, car son diamètre de The dirt is much better removed from the channels and rear rims protrusions. The washing brush may also have a smaller diameter because its diameter
travail proprement dit se trouve augmenté de l'excentricité. actual work is increased by eccentricity.
L'excentricité du centre de la brosse de lavage par rapport à. l'axe de rotation est avantageusement comprise entre The eccentricity of the center of the scrubbing brush with respect to. the axis of rotation is advantageously between
environ 20 et 40 mm, de préférence voisine de 30 mm. about 20 and 40 mm, preferably about 30 mm.
On peut aussi déterminer l'excentricité en fonction We can also determine the eccentricity depending
du diamètre de la brosse de lavage. Cette excentricité re- the diameter of the washing brush. This eccentricity
présente opportunément de 7 à, 10 % environ dudit diamètre. suitably present from about 7 to about 10% of said diameter.
L'invention sera mieux comprise à l'aide de la The invention will be better understood using the
description détaillée d'un mode de réalisation pris comme detailed description of an embodiment taken as
exemple non limitatif et illustré schématiquement par le dessin annexé, dont la figure unique est une vue en élévation latérale d'un dispositif de lavage selon ladite invention. Un carter 1 disposé sur un chariot 2 supporte en rotation l'arbre 3, entraîné autour de l'axe de rotation A-A par un moteur 4. L'arbre 3 porte à son extrémité libre un flasque 5 sur lequel est fixée en position excentrée la brosse de lavage 6 avec son porte-soies 6a. La fixation est telle que le centre Z de ladite brosse de lavage soit excentré de la distance e par rapport à l'axe de rotation A-A. Cette excentricité est avantageusement comprise entre 20 et 40 mm, de préférence égale à 30 mm. Le diamètre D de la brosse de non-limiting example and illustrated schematically in the accompanying drawing, the single figure is a side elevational view of a washing device according to said invention. A housing 1 disposed on a carriage 2 rotatably supports the shaft 3, driven around the axis of rotation AA by a motor 4. The shaft 3 carries at its free end a flange 5 on which is fixed in the eccentric position the washing brush 6 with its bristle holder 6a. The attachment is such that the center Z of said washing brush is eccentric distance e relative to the axis of rotation A-A. This eccentricity is advantageously between 20 and 40 mm, preferably equal to 30 mm. The diameter D of the brush of
lavage 6 est en même temps compris entre 300 et 450 mm. washing 6 is at the same time between 300 and 450 mm.
De plus, et de façon connue, la brosse de lavage 6 est montée mobile essentiellement en direction de son axe de rotation A-A dans un bâti 7, le chariot 2 étant, à cet effet, mobile en translation en direction B dans ledit bâti 7. Cette partie du dispositif étant connue et réalisable de façons très diverses on s'est abstenu de représenter aussi l'entra nement In addition, and in known manner, the washing brush 6 is mounted essentially in the direction of its axis of rotation AA in a frame 7, the carriage 2 being, for this purpose, movable in translation in the direction B in said frame 7. This part of the device being known and feasible in very different ways, we have refrained from representing the training as well.
