2. Description of the Related Art A car washer of this type is provided with a blower nozzle for injecting air into an automobile in addition to a washing means such as a brush, and operates to blow air to a wet body after washing to dry the car body. The blower nozzle is composed of an upper surface blower nozzle acting on the upper surface of the vehicle and a pair of left and right side blower nozzles acting on the side surface of the vehicle, both of which are set to a size corresponding to the width dimension and the height dimension of a normal passenger car,
At the time of drying, air is simultaneously jetted from each nozzle so that the drying of the ordinary passenger car can be completed once with the running of the car washer.

[0003] By the way, many car wash machines of this kind are designed to wash not only ordinary cars but also multi-purpose cars such as wagon cars and Jeep (trade name). There was no equipment capable of drying. That is, the size of the side blower nozzle is set in accordance with the height of a normal passenger car, and the actual situation is that the side of a tall automobile such as a wagon or a multipurpose passenger car cannot be sufficiently covered. For this reason, conventionally, it has been necessary to wipe off water droplets remaining on the vehicle body after the car was washed, and a large body was also helped, resulting in imposing heavy labor on the car wash worker.

On the other hand, it is conceivable to increase the size of the side blower nozzle in accordance with such a high-height vehicle. However, in this case, the area of the nozzle outlet increases and a large-capacity blower must be provided. There was a problem that sufficient wind power for drying could not be obtained. As disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 15548/1990, the blowing direction of the side blower nozzle is changed up and down according to the shape of the vehicle.
As seen in Japanese Patent Publication No. 50, there is known a device that expands and contracts the outlet of a side blower nozzle up and down according to the shape of a vehicle. As a result, there is a problem that the blowing pressure is lower than that of an ordinary passenger car, and a sufficient drying effect cannot be exhibited.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a sufficient drying performance even for a high-height vehicle other than an ordinary passenger car without particularly requiring a large-sized blower. The point is whether a car wash machine that can be used is obtained.

According to the present invention, the side blower nozzle is controlled to move up and down in accordance with the type of vehicle, and the blowing direction of the side blower nozzle is changed in accordance with the running direction of the car washer, so that the effect is not changed with reciprocating running. Since it is possible to perform drying, it is possible to perform reciprocating processing such as raising a side blower nozzle for a high vehicle such as a wagon vehicle and drying after drying at a normal lowered position, and so on. The side blower nozzle may be small enough to fit the height of a normal passenger car, and it does not spread the blast according to the height of the car, so it does not hit it. It is not necessary to provide a blower, and a highly effective drying process can be performed.
