ABSTRACT:
A booth in which components are cleaned by high pressure water ejected from a nozzle assembly associated with a robot. The robot is adapted to move the nozzle assembly along multiple axes so as to enable the nozzle assembly to reach various areas of the components to be cleaned. The nozzle assembly and part of the robot are located in the booth but substantial portions of the robot are located outside of the booth in order to avoid the need for waterproofing those portions. To enable the robot to operate while located partially within and partially outside of the booth, one wall of the booth is formed by groups of slidable panels which expand and contract to accommodate the robot as the robot is moved. In one embodiment, the panels form the ceiling of the booth and, in a second embodiment, the panels define one upright side wall of the booth.
