ABSTRACT:
A golf ball washing machine for handling a high volume of golf balls is comprised of a wash tub and a scrubbing unit mounted in the tub. A plurality of golf balls are deposited in bulk in a stowage space formed between the tub walls and the scrubbing unit. Baffle panels guide the balls downwardly in the stowage space to the lower end of the scrubbing unit and a fluid injection system feeds the golf balls one by one into a scrubbing chamber. The chamber is formed by a generally cylindrical shell mounted vertically within the tub and a brush rotates coaxially within the shell and scrubs golf balls sandwiched between the brush and shell walls. A track extending from the lower end of the shell to a discharging spout above aids the brush in moving the golf balls upwardly through the scrubbing chamber in opposition to gravitational forces. The rotating brush also circulates a cleaning solution through the lower end of the shell to energize the fluid injection system which draws golf balls into the scrubbing chamber.
