20230000239 · 2023-01-05 · ·

A kit and method of cleaning a barbeque grill that includes engaging a heat-resistant cloth about a support member of a grill brush; absorbing a quantity of liquid with the heat-resistant cloth; placing the brush with heat-resistant cloth engaged onto previously-heated grill bars of the barbeque grill; generating steam as the quantity of liquid is heated by the grill bars; moving the brush with heat-resistant cloth thereon back and forth along the grill bars; removing food matter and grease from the grill bars; and transferring the removed food matter and grease to the heat-resistant cloth. The removal of food matter and grease is accomplished by a combination of the generated steam and the moving of the brush with heat-resistant cloth thereon back and forth along the grill bars. After use, the heat-resistant cloth is disengaged from the brush and may be washed and reused one or more times.

Encoder and programmable logic controller (PLC) implementation for a rotary brush automatic car wash system
11535206 · 2022-12-27 ·

This invention relates to an automatic vehicle wash apparatus employing one or more rotary cloth or foam rubber brushes, and more particularly to the way how the rotary brush to vehicle surface contact is managed using one or more encoders connected to the rotating shaft of each brush and one or more programmable logic controllers (PLC). The encoders, recording the revolutions per minute (RPM) of each brush shaft, provide input to the programmable logic controller. If the RPM value is at or above the high RPM limit, the pivoted boom will move the brush toward the vehicle to achieve a desired brush-to-washable surface contact. If, on the other hand, the RPM value is at or below the low RPM limit, the pivoted boom will move the brush away from the vehicle to achieve a desired brush-to-washable surface contact.
