ABSTRACT:
Tank cleaning apparatus is disclosed for cleaning the inside of large railroad car tanks and the like. A sprayhead carrying one or more spray nozzles is mounted on a holding bar which includes a C-shaped semi-circular section and which is mounted on a carrier frame at the outside of the tank for pivotal movement about an axle through the center of curvature of the C-shaped section. The sprayhead is mounted at an end part of the holding bar which extends radially outwardly with respect to the C-shaped section in such a manner that in one end position of the holding bar the sprayhead means is aligned with the center axis of a tank manhole opening and that in the other end position is disposed adjacent the inside end surface of the tank being cleaned. The carrier frame is rotatably mounted at the manhole to accommodate rotation for cleaning respective opposite ends of the tank.
