ABSTRACT:
A vehicle drying apparatus comprising a V-shaped blower manifold having air supply means and nozzle means. The V-shaped blower manifold can be movably supported in an automated car wash to direct a V-shaped curtain of blown air against the surface of a vehicle moving relative to the manifold, stripping water from the vehicle surface both rearwardly and laterally. Soft, flexible air channeling means are fastened to the nozzle means to increase the rate of flow of air to the vehicle surface. Also disclosed is a gantry frame for supporting the blower manifold in selected positions over the vehicle and for housing blower assemblies for directing pressurized air to the manifold.
