VEHICLE CLEANING DEVICE, MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREOF, AND ASSEMBLY METHOD THEREOF - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240042968 titled 'VEHICLE CLEANING DEVICE, MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREOF, AND ASSEMBLY METHOD THEREOF
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a vehicle cleaning device that includes a cylinder, a piston, a spray nozzle unit, and a cap. The cylinder is supplied with a cleaning fluid, and the piston is slidably inserted in the cylinder. The spray nozzle unit is mounted at the leading end of the piston and sprays the cleaning fluid towards an object to be cleaned. The cap closes the gap between the cylinder and the piston in the opening of the cylinder.
- The device includes a cylinder that holds cleaning fluid.
- A piston is inserted into the cylinder and can slide back and forth.
- A spray nozzle unit is attached to the front of the piston and sprays the cleaning fluid.
- A cap is used to close the gap between the cylinder and the piston.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Vehicle cleaning devices for car washes or detailing services.
- Industrial cleaning equipment for large machinery or equipment.
- Household cleaning devices for windows, floors, or other surfaces.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Efficiently and effectively cleaning objects or surfaces.
- Controlling the flow and direction of the cleaning fluid.
- Preventing leakage or loss of cleaning fluid during operation.
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved cleaning performance and efficiency.
- Versatile and adaptable for various cleaning applications.
- Reduced waste and mess due to the cap closing the gap between the cylinder and piston.
Original Abstract Submitted
a vehicle cleaning device includes a cylinder to which a cleaning fluid is supplied; a piston slidably inserted in the cylinder; a spray nozzle unit mounted at a leading end of the piston and configured to spray the cleaning fluid toward an object-to-be-cleaned; and a cap that closes a gap between the cylinder and the piston in an opening of the cylinder through which the piston protrudes. the cap includes a tubular part inside the cylinder, and the tubular part defines an end of movement of the piston. a communication hole is provided between a communication groove provided in an outer peripheral surface of the tubular part and an inner peripheral surface of the cylinder, and the gap between the cylinder and the piston communicates with the outside of the cylinder through the communication hole.
