ABSTRACT:
A vehicle wrap around type brush cleaning assembly comprised of a single brush support arm pivoted at one end to an overhead frame structure inside a predetermined path of a vehicle to be washed. A rotatable brush is mounted on a shaft connected to the opposite end of the brush support arm and is normally positioned adjacent the center line of the path to be contacted by the vehicle. A brush motor rotates the brush in a direction which walks the brush along the front, side and rear surfaces of the vehicle. A flexible coupling may be utilized to couple the brush shaft to the brush support arm to permit the brush to tilt or swing in any direction. Two such brush assemblies may be mounted overhead on the frame structure on opposite sides of the center line of the path to wash both sides of the vehicle. In that instance, one of the brush support arms is of a different length than the opposite brush support arm to position the brush assemblies in an overlapping relationship near the center line of the path.
