It is necessary to send antifreeze water to the water supply pipeline for high pressure spray and the water supply pipeline for brush cleaning, respectively. It will be consumed. In addition, it is necessary to draw out a plurality of water supply pipes for high pressure spray and water supply pipes for brush cleaning from the main body of the apparatus, which makes the pipes extremely complicated and expensive. In addition, when preventing freezing, it is necessary to prevent freezing of not only the pipeline portion but also the brush portion, but the conventional method has not been able to cope with the prevention of freezing of the brush portion. Further, most brush cleaning tools are of a type in which a brush is attached to the tip of a hook-shaped pipe material, and even if the brush is hung downward, water remains in the bent portion and tends to freeze. There is also.

管路の凍結防止を講じることができる。It should be noted that when shifting from spray cleaning to brush cleaning, the drain pipe is opened so that unnecessary water is discharged to the car wash, and water is sprayed from either side when changing from the spray gun to the brush cleaning tool. While preventing the inconvenience of splashing water on the worker without doing so, until the switching that occurs depending on the length of the water supply pipeline when discharging water from the drain pipeline, for example, when switching from water to detergent water The delay time etc. can be absorbed. In this case, if the brush cleaning tool side and the drainage pipeline side are alternately switched to flow the antifreezing water, it is possible to prevent the drainage pipeline from freezing without particularly increasing the amount of water. it can.

A high cleaning effect can be obtained, and at the time of antifreeze measures, the antifreeze water is sent to the brush cleaning tool at the same time that air is introduced from the air pipe, and the antifreeze water from the brush cleaning tool is energized by air pressure. It can be discharged, and a small amount of water can reliably prevent freezing. In particular, it works well even when it has a complicated pipe line configuration such that water is dispersed and discharged from a plurality of mouths at the brush portion, and further, the implementation of the first invention allows intermittent passage of antifreeze water. Even if the discharge port portion starts to freeze, the water pressure can be reliably passed through by air pressure.

The discharge pressure of the spray is reduced and the spray cleaning is completed.
Electromagnetic valve 20 simultaneously with the opening of the solenoid valve 18 is opened, the detergent water diluted detergent solution tank 9 to the water supply conduit 3 1 side is transmitted, the high pressure after a predetermined short time (5-10 sec) Pump 11
Is stopped, the solenoid valve 13 is closed, and the spray from the spray gun 4 is stopped. When the spray cleaning is stopped, the solenoid valve 18 is opened. When the pump 11 is suddenly stopped from the high pressure spray state, a strong reaction is generated in the spray gun 4. Therefore, the solenoid valve 18 is first opened to reduce the discharge pressure and then the pump 11 is stopped. The purpose is to improve the operability of the spray gun 4. Further, together with the solenoid valve 18, the solenoid valve 20
Opening, by for the next brush cleaning step should send out the detergent water into the water supply conduit 3 1 side, it is possible to simultaneously discharge the detergent water with the start of the brush cleaning step.

Here, the operator can start the brush cleaning process by changing over from the spray gun 4 to the brush cleaning tool 5 and then performing a car wash start input again on the operation panel 44. When there is a car wash start input, the solenoid valve 13,
39 is opened and the pump 11 is driven after the delay time t1. When the pump 11 is driven, the solenoid valve 1
Since 8 and 20 are opened, the detergent water is sent to the water supply pipe 3 1 at a low pressure and is brought to the branch water supply pipe 36. In this pipe line 36, the three-way solenoid valve information 37 is opened to the drain pipe line 38 side P 4 , so that air from the air pipe line 28 is introduced and the foamed detergent water is discharged to the drain pipe line 38. It When the predetermined waiting time t2 elapses, the three-way solenoid valve 37 is switched, the foaming detergent water is sent to the brush cleaning tool 5 side, and brush cleaning is started. Here, since the foaming detergent is discharged to the drainage pipe 38 for a short period of time at the beginning of the start, it is discharged from the brush cleaning tool 5 while the detergent concentration and air mixing are not stable, and the detergent is scattered by the air pressure. There is no inconvenience that the detergent drips down and wets the clothes of workers.

Since the solenoid valve 39 is closed by switching to the side P 3 , the water from the low-pressure pump 23 pushes away the detergent water remaining in each pipe and is discharged to the drain pipe 38. During this line cleaning, in the antifreezing line 22, first, only the solenoid valve 24b is opened to send the low pressure water to the return line 17 via the liquid agent line 19 to clean the liquid agent line 19 and delay.

Simultaneously with the start of the anti-freezing measure, the low-pressure pump 23 is driven and the solenoid valve 25 is opened to send the anti-freezing water to the water supply pipe lines 3 1 to 3 3 . In the terminal device 2 1 to 2 3, between first predetermined time T 1 connects the three-way electromagnetic valve 34 to the spray gun 4 side P 1, to discharge the antifreeze solution to the spray gun 4. During the following predetermined time T 2 ,
Since the three-way solenoid valve 34 is connected to the brush cleaning tool 5 side P 2 , where the three-way solenoid valve 37 is open to the drainage pipe 38 side P 4 , the antifreeze water is discharged to the drainage pipe 38. During the subsequent predetermined time T 3 , the three-way solenoid valve 37 keeps the brush cleaning tool 5
It is opened to the side P 3 and the antifreezing water is discharged to the brush cleaning tool 5. In this T 3 process, a predetermined time T shorter than T 3
The solenoid valve 39 is opened only during 4 and air is discharged from the brush cleaning tool 5 together with the antifreezing water. The steps T 1 to T 3 thus executed are repeated until it is determined that the freeze protection is unnecessary.

It can be prevented. In particular, when water is passed to the brush cleaning tool 5, the air from the air pipe 28 is introduced and pressurized, and the antifreezing water can be vigorously ejected, so that the ejection port has a plurality of branches. Even if it has a complicated shape, it is possible to reliably pass water and prevent freezing. Furthermore, air is a brush cleaning tool 5.
Since the water is discharged from the tip of the holder into the holder tank 42 and the water in the tank is made to flow, it is possible to contribute to the prevention of freezing of the water in the tank, whereby the freezing of the brush 6 can be surely prevented. It should be noted that in this embodiment, since water is also passed to the drainage pipe 38, it is not necessary to particularly provide the atmosphere release valve 40 shown in FIG.

It is not intended to be held at 1, 42. It is intended to surely prevent the pipeline from freezing even if it is not inside the holder tanks 41 and 42. This is because the used spray gun 4 or brush cleaning tool 5 is not always returned to the holder tank. Although the holder tanks 41 and 42 are separately provided in the above embodiment,
The spray gun 4 and the brush cleaning tool 5 may be held in one common holder tank. In either case,
If the antifreezing water is discharged from either the spray gun 4 or the brush cleaning tool 5, a water flow is generated in the tank, which effectively acts to prevent the water in the tank and the brush 6 from freezing.
