ABSTRACT:
Vehicle washing apparatus includes a turntable for reception of a vehicle on it at an entrance point. Two arm and brush assemblies are provided at opposite sides of the path of the vehicle onto the turntable to scrub upstanding exterior body surfaces of the vehicle. The turntable is rotated with the vehicle on it, as the brushes are moved by the vehicle body surfaces and scrub the entire perimeter of the vehicle at least once with both brushes, using a 360 degree rotation of the turntable. Articulated brushes, in one embodiment, are employed with brush reversal for additional brushing of the rear end as the vehicle is moved off the turntable. Oscillating friction strips are provided at the entrance for cleaning top surfaces of the vehicle, and a dryer unit is provided at the exit point for drying the vehicle. Conveyors are employed at the entrance and exit points as well as on the turntable itself, for conveyor movement of the vehicle, if desired.
