A cleaning device for cleaning an object having a peripheral edge defining a tubular portion of the object that is open at least one of its ends. The cleaning device has a cleaning enclosure, a first fluid feed duct for feeding fluid to the enclosure, and a first fluid discharge duct for discharging fluid from the enclosure. The cleaning enclosure has first and second enclosure portions. When the device is in its closed configuration at least one central zone of the second enclosure portion extends inside the first enclosure portion in order to define a reception space for receiving the object between the first enclosure portion and the central zone, which reception space extends all around the central portion.

A vehicle mounted garbage bin cleaning system including power takeoff includes a pair of arms configured for lifting a garbage bin, the pair of arms rotatably coupled to a mount on the vehicle, a hopper configured for accepting the garbage bin when the pair of arms lifts the garbage bin into the hopper, at least one spray rod extending upwards from the hopper, said spray rod including a water nozzle, wherein when the pair of arms lifts the garbage bin into the hopper, the spray rod is situated within the garbage bin, a hydraulic pump mechanically coupled with a transmission of the vehicle, such that the transmission drives the hydraulic pump, a pressure washer pump mechanically coupled to the hydraulic pump, the spray rod is fluidically coupled with the pressure washer pump.

In one example there is disclosed, an apparatus (10) for vacuum cleaning a tank (11). The apparatus (10) includes a main body (12) coupled to a working arm (14) and a plurality of support legs (16) coupled to the main body (12). The main body (12) includes a main conduit (40) extending lengthwise therethrough and a common central actuator (32) fitted about by the main conduit (40). The working arm (14) includes a vacuum conduit (50) in fluid communication with the main conduit (40). The plurality of support legs (16) are operatively coupled to the common central actuator (32) so as to be simultaneously moveable at least between a collapsed condition so as to fit through an opening 18 of the tank 11, and an extended condition in which the plurality of support legs (16) are moved relatively outwardly so as to be telescopically extendable within the tank (11) to engage a side wall (20) of the tank to support the main body (12). Other examples of the apparatus, a system and related methods are also disclosed.

A washing device for washing objects for stalling animals includes: a rod extending along a main axis and connectable to a source of pressurized washing fluid; a fluid conveying device connected to the source and associated with the rod; nozzles for emitting jets of the fluid, the nozzles being connected to the device and supported by the rod; a translation mechanism for translating the rod along a stroke extending along a translation axis transversal to the main axis, and a rotation mechanism for alternately rotating the rod about a rotation axis parallel to the main axis. The translation and rotation mechanisms are selectively operable for moving the rod inside an operating plane defined by the main axis and by the translation axis to direct the jets against the surfaces to be washed.

A method for automated cleaning of an immersion tank (14) includes: substantially enclosing an interior volume (30) of the immersion tank (14); increasing the temperature and humidity in the interior volume (30) of the immersion tank (14); then applying cleaning solution to interior surfaces of the immersion tank (14); and rinsing the cleaning solution and soil off the interior surfaces of the immersion tank (14).

Installation provided with at least one high-pressure circuit comprising at least one high-pressure pump and rotating nozzles attacking the four sides of crates in order to automatically remove labels, wherein the installation further comprises a low-pressure circuit able to clean the installation inwardly and to transport labels to specific filters so that stoppages are diminished and further able to recirculate the water of the high-pressure and low-pressure circuits, and wherein trolleys holding the crates are able to rotate by means of a predefined path on perimetral guides of the frame so that the jets of the nozzles attack the required walls of the crates on four sides.

A portable spray cleaning system with a device for sanitizing the interior surface of residential trash cans. The device includes adjustable arms, a plurality of spray nozzles, and rubber clamps. On one end, the device may also include a port for connecting to a water supply via a hose. Once the hose is connected, water can then be sprayed out through the spray nozzles. The pressure created by the water flow enables the device to rotate while water is being sprayed. There may also be a compartment for inserting a disinfectant that mixes in with the water. The device is collapsible for easy storage and packaging. It is known that trash receptacles often become very dirty and contaminated after repeated use.

Disclosed herein are various embodiments of container washing systems and methods. The exemplary systems may include a foot valve, the foot valve having an input for a fluid, a tray having a grate, the grate configured to support the container; and a rotatable assembly having one or more nozzles, wherein actuation of the foot valve opens a fluid path from the foot valve to the nozzles, such that a fluid may be sprayed above the tray and into the interior of the container.

Systems, devices, and methods for passing railcar tank cleaning systems through the opening and mounted to existing manways. The invention can extend horizontally more than 25 feet and clean rail cars up to and beyond approximately 102 inches in diameter for manual, automated, or semi-automated programmable railcar tank cleaning systems, devices and methods for providing safe and efficient methods for breaking up oil, tar, chemical, radioactive, hazardous, or any other liquid, solid, or sludge waste inside rail tank cars and the like with nozzles which utilize fluid jets to break up, liquefy, and motivate tank material. The programmable railcar cleaning system can be a standalone, independent unit or integrated into new designs and/or existing systems. Simplified programming and user interface allow an operator to remotely operate the system. The various capabilities of this invention allow cleaning in a quicker and more efficient manner. The system is hydraulically controlled and can work in the presence of flammable vapors and dust.

A vehicle mounted garbage bin cleaning system including power takeoff includes a pair of arms configured for lifting a garbage bin, the pair of arms rotatably coupled to a mount on the vehicle, a hopper configured for accepting the garbage bin when the pair of arms lifts the garbage bin into the hopper, at least one spray rod extending upwards from the hopper, said spray rod including a water nozzle, wherein when the pair of arms lifts the garbage bin into the hopper, the spray rod is situated within the garbage bin, a hydraulic pump mechanically coupled with a transmission of the vehicle, such that the transmission drives the hydraulic pump, a pressure washer pump mechanically coupled to the hydraulic pump, the spray rod is fluidically coupled with the pressure washer pump, a dryer system for drying the bin and a deodorizing system for deodorizing the bin.
