Definitions
- the invention relates to plastic bristles for the automatic brushes of automatic car washes which work with moving, generally rotating brushes.
- the invention has for its object to propose synthetic bristles that have a soft structure in order not to damage the paint, but on the other hand must be more resistant to abrasion than LDPE, so that no abrasion structures, especially in dark bodies, can result.
- the artificial bristles should still have such a smooth surface that a dirt-repellent effect is achieved.
- the high-pressure polyethylene previously used as the main material does not solve the stated task.
- the addition of 5% polyurethane to the polyester PBT has solved the problem and has led to the following advantages:
- the ribbons (for definition see the article mentioned above) become softer; the wristbands become tougher and therefore more resistant to abrasion; abrasion no longer occurs on the car bodies; the surface becomes smoother and therefore much more dirt-repellent than with previous synthetic bristles. Dirt cannot settle on the bristles.
- the cross profile previously used led to paint damage, in contrast to what was still proposed in 1970.
- the plastic bristles are preferably provided in the form of so-called ribbons (see DE-PS 39 36 922). However, there was previously a risk of bleeding through with PBT tapes.
- Polyester PET is modified with polyurethane. However, this is about a fabric made from polyester (PET) monofilament, not artificial bristles and ribbons made from polyester PBT.
- the polyurethane additive is 5%.
- the raw material LDPE has been replaced by polyester PBT, a material that is inherently much more resistant to abrasion.
- polyester PBT a material that is inherently much more resistant to abrasion.
- the addition of polyurethane increases the toughness and thus the abrasion resistance of polyester PBT.
- polyester PBT has the advantage over polyamide that it does not absorb water.
- polyurethane ensures that, according to the invention, abrasion of polymer residues on the car paint is no longer detectable, as is the case when using plastic bristles made of LDPE.
- polyester PBT Compared to polyamide, polyester PBT has the advantage of not absorbing water. So it cannot become dirty and unsightly like polyamide through water absorption. On the contrary, due to its smooth surface, it has a dirt-repellent effect.
- the previously used polyethylene bristles had a diameter range between 0.5 mm and 1.2 mm
- the tapes according to the invention have a thickness of 0.10 mm to 0.60 mm, preferably 0.30 mm and a width between 0.50 mm and 5.00 mm, preferably 1.00 mm and 1.50 mm.
- the above-mentioned polyurethane additive is a thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer.
- the plastic bristles made of polyester PBT with the mentioned polyurethane additive offer special advantages if the bristles have a known asymmetrical cross-section and the wash-active sides of the bristles have a flat or convex surface and are used with the longer cross-sectional sides transverse or perpendicular to the direction of rotation of the rollers .
- the longitudinal extent 1 of the bristle is greater than its width b.
- R indicates the direction of rotation of the roller, in which these bristles are firmly anchored in the form of tufts, ie the long cross-sectional extent 1 is always transverse to the direction of movement of the brush roller or its vector R 'at this point.
- Figure 1 shows rectangular cross sections of the bristles;
- Figure 2 shows a symmetrical lens cross section. It is an oval or symmetrical cross section, which is to be regarded as preferred.
- Figure 3 shows a rectangular cross section with rounded corners;
- Figure 5 shows a loaf of bread cross section, which has a straight base but a curved hood surface.
- FIG. 6 shows diamond cross-sections where the longitudinal extension is again transverse to the vector of the peripheral speed R '; and FIG. 7 finally shows a corrugated cross section in which the underside of the cross section can be straight.
- a cross section which is corrugated symmetrically on both sides is also possible, however.
