る。(3) Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, in the conventional car washing method, the pair of vertical brushes has the following problems because the rotation direction is not changed while the front and rear end surfaces of the vehicle are being brushed. That is, the front and rear end surfaces of the vehicle may have some uneven portions associated with the attachment of various lamps and emblems, but as shown in FIG. 4, the vertical brush B rotating in one direction. The tip of the hair faces the outer surface on one side (a) of the uneven portion P, while
It tends to escape from the outer surface of the other side (b), and it is difficult to uniformly brush the entire area of the uneven portion.

ある。In addition, in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 51-98470, a pair of vertical brushes are brought into close proximity to each other and brought into contact with a portion near the center of the front surface of the vehicle body while being normally rotated, and then the brushes are rotated in the reverse direction along Disclosed is a car washing method in which the front surface of the vehicle body is brushed by moving the front surface of the vehicle body away from each other. Since the vertical brush is rotated in only one direction for brushing on both sides of the front surface of the vehicle body except for the central portion, the uneven portions are present on these both sides (the left and right headlamps are located on the both sides). In this case, there is a problem similar to the above.

間移動させてブラシング洗浄することを特徴とする。B. Configuration of the Invention (1) Means for Solving the Problems To achieve the above object, the present invention provides a pair of vertical brushes that are controlled to rotate forward and backward about a vertical axis and are controlled to reciprocate in the left-right direction of a vehicle. In a car wash method of cleaning one end surface of the front and rear of a vehicle using a brush, in cleaning the one end surface of the vehicle, the both vertical brushes are the brushes on the side of the both vertical brushes facing the one end surface. The bristles are rotated so that they move away from each other, and the vertical brushes are brought closer to each other so that the bristles interfere with each other. Then, the bristles are brought into contact with the central portion of the one end face, and then the vertical brushes are moved. Are moved away from each other so that the rotation axes of the vertical brushes are close to the side surfaces of the vehicle, and then moved closer to the approaching position, and then the rotation directions of the vertical brushes are reversed at the approaching position. After, the two vertical brushes,
It is characterized in that the rotating shafts of the both vertical brushes are moved away from each other until they exceed the side surface position of the vehicle for brushing cleaning.
（２） 作用 前記構成によれば、車両の前後の一端面をブラシング洗
浄するに当り、該一端面の全面に対して、縦ブラシを
正，逆二方向にそれぞれ回転させた二通りのブラシング
効果が与えられるから、該一端面に凹凸部があるような
場合でも、その凹凸部を含む該一端面全面が万遍なくブ
ラシングさせて綺麗になる。(2) Operation According to the above configuration, when the front and rear end surfaces of the vehicle are brushed and washed, two types of brushing effects are obtained by rotating the vertical brush in the normal and reverse directions with respect to the entire surface of the one end surface. Therefore, even if there is an uneven portion on the one end surface, the entire surface of the one end surface including the uneven portion can be brushed uniformly to be beautiful.
また特に両縦ブラシが接近位置に在る時に両縦ブラシの
中間となる該一端面中央部分に対しては、該中央部分に
接触するブラシ毛が該一端面中央部分から側面側に移動

り良好な洗浄効果が得られる。しかも両縦ブラシを同時
に接近移動及び離間移動させることで、縦ブラシを１つ
宛順次に移動させるものと比べて洗浄処理時間が短くな
る。Further, particularly with respect to the central portion of the one end surface which is the middle of the both vertical brushes when the both vertical brushes are in the approaching position, the direction in which the brush bristles contacting the central portion move from the central portion of the one end surface to the side surface side. Further, since the brushing cleaning is performed by the separating movement and the approaching movement in a state where both the vertical brushes are rotated, a better cleaning effect can be obtained. In addition, by moving both vertical brushes toward and away from each other at the same time, the cleaning processing time becomes shorter than that when one vertical brush is sequentially moved.
更に両縦ブラシを接近移動及び離間移動させてブラシン
グ洗浄を行なうに当っての、両縦ブラシと車両の前記一
端面との位置関係は、両縦ブラシを実際に該一端面に接
触させて決めることができるから、その位置関係の決定
が適切になされる。Further, in performing the brushing cleaning by moving the vertical brushes closer to and away from each other, the positional relationship between the vertical brushes and the one end face of the vehicle is determined by actually contacting the two vertical brushes with the one end face. Therefore, the positional relationship is appropriately determined.
