ABSTRACT:
A power driven turntable has a conveyor thereon for moving a car onto the turntable while the turntable is held at rest. A control then locks the conveyor to hold the car in place on the turntable as it is rotated by a motor therefor. Individual components such as a wheel scrubbing brush can operate on said turntable. Brushes are mounted on horizontal axes mounted on arms hinged from above, and engageable with upwardly facing surfaces of the car as the turntable is rotated. Brushes are also mounted on carriages movable toward and away from the center of rotation, for scrubbing vertical surfaces of the car as the turntable turns. Tire soaking troughs for a caustic solution are provided near the entrance. Controls are employed to move the brushes in response to changes in pressure of engagement of the brushes against the surfaces as the car is turned.
