Abstract
Abstract A CAR WASHER COMPRISES A FOAM RING CARRIED BY A BASE PLATE MOUNTED FOR OSCILLATION AT THE END OF A LONG TUBULAR HANDLE. THE BASE PLATE AND FOAM RING ARE OSCILLATED BY ECCENTRIC WEIGHTS ROTATED BY VANE WHEELS DRIVEN BY WASH WATER SUPPLIED THROUGH THE HANDLE. A DETERGENT-WATER MIXTURE IS ALSO SUPPLIED THROUGH THE HANDLE AND IS DISCHARGED INSIDE THE RING TO WASH THE SURFACE AREA ENGAGED BY THE OSCILLATING FOAM RING. THE WATER WHICH DRIVES THE VANE WHEELS IS DISCHARGED AGAINST THE CAR SURFACE OUTSIDE THE RING TO RINSE AN AREA PREVIOUSLY WASHED.
