ABSTRACT:
A carriage is driven from the back to the front of the inside of a trailer, either by rotating nozzles which discharge wash water against the inside of the trailer or by an electric motor. The carriage is guided by two laterally spaced rollers on each side. A hose supplying the wash water and later the rinse water, to the nozzles on the carriage, unwinds from a reel while the carriage is driven into the trailer, but the reel is turned by a motor to pull the carriage rearwardly of and out of the trailer. The trailer rests on an inclined ramp, with the rear edges abutting resilient pads for sealing purposes, the pads being placed around an opening in a partition in the building in which the carriage is housed. A wash tank receives liquid draining from the inside of the trailer, both wash water and rinse water, while a boiler heats the wash water. A rinse tank is replenished by an outside water line, while the water from both the wash tank and the rinse tank is pumped to a special connection of the reel for passage through the hose to the nozzles.
