A car wash conveyor including a simplified and improved track structure using cut out flat support plates for mounting three tiers of tracks. The support plates allow equal widths of an intermediate and lower track, and incorporation of integral stanchions for support of tire guide rollers. The chain take up mechanism and the roller control mechanism together form an assembly able to be installed into the conveyor or removed for service as a single unit.

Car wash conveyor track section construction and combined chain take up and roller control unit therefor

A roller assembly for car wash conveyors having three pairs of pusher rollers on the upper end of a conveyor roller bar in order to reduce and make more uniform the roller wear. The roller pairs are arranged to respectively engage the upper, intermediate and lower tracks of the conveyor. The pairs of pusher rollers are each mounted on one of three parallel shafts arranged in a triangular pattern each roller in each pair confined between sets of two plates having holes receiving the shafts which are welded thereto. Two of the shafts are welded to the upper end of the roller bar.
