ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for cleaning dirty objects with fluids is disclosed. The apparatus has a housing within which a high pressure wash chamber is located at the input end of the housing. A high pressure rinse chamber is located at the discharge end of the housing. An immersion chamber containing cleaning fluid is disposed between the wash chamber and the rinse chamber. The dirty objects are moved serially through the wash chamber, the immersion chamber and the rinse chamber to clean the dirty objects by mechanical scrubbing and chemical action. A guide rail system is provided to insure that dirty objects less dense than the cleaning fluid are submerged into the cleaning fluid in the immersion chamber. In the preferred embodiment, ultrasonic transducers are mounted in the immersion chamber below the level of the chemical fluid to generate vibrations to loosen and remove a portion of the dirt therein. In an alternate embodiment, a high pressure spray tunnel is mounted in the immersion chamber below the level of the chemical fluid to agitate the cleaning fluid to enhance the cleaning action to remove and loosen a portion of the dirt from the dirty objects. A flushing system is also provided to remove accumulated residues from the bottom of the chambers.
