A method for operating a vehicle treatment system, in particular a vehicle washing system, includes treating at least one vehicle surface with at least one rotating brush with a brush material at an immersion depth of the brush, and controlling during the treatment of the vehicle surface, the rotating brush based on a setpoint value for the friction of the brush material on the vehicle surface, the immersion depth of the rotating brush on the vehicle surfaces treated therewith being monitored at the setpoint value during the treatment of the vehicle surface in order to determine the state of the brush material. In addition, a vehicle treatment apparatus, a use thereof, and a computer program product are provided.

The present disclosure relates to a washing system with a device for determining a geometric mid position of a vehicle positioned within the washing system. For this purpose, positions of two movable carriages, on each of which a lateral cleaning brush is mounted, are detected and used to calculate the mid position.

Determining a geometric center position of a vehicle

A system for modifying process data of a car wash based on captured evaluations of vehicle washes performed on the car wash, comprising: a set of mobile terminals, each adapted to perform an algorithmic evaluation process; and a control module, implemented on the car wash, for controlling and/or regulating the car wash based on the detected feedback signals encoding evaluations of vehicle washes performed on the car wash, and in data communication with the mobile terminals via the control interface.

Data exchange between a mobile terminal and a control module of a car wash for feedback of evaluation signals

A method for treating a vehicle having at least one outer surface, includes (a) adjusting an angle of a treatment brush relative to the vertical in at least one predetermined angular range parallel and/or perpendicular to the outer surface, (b) guiding the treatment brush along the at least one outer surface on a path during the treatment process, (c) monitoring the angle of the treatment brush to the vertical parallel and/or perpendicular to the outer surface during step (b), and (d) adapting the path of the treatment brush if a deviation of the monitored angle of the treatment brush from the at least one predetermined angular range is determined in step (c). An apparatus for treating a vehicle having at least one outer surface, a use of the apparatus for treating a vehicle having at least one outer surface, and a computer program product are further disclosed.

Method and apparatus for treating a vehicle having at least one outer surface

An apparatus for cleaning a vehicle having at least one outer surface which is inclined by an inclination angle with respect to the vertical, includes a device for detecting the inclination angle of the at least one outer surface, a cleaning brush which can be passed along the at least one outer surface, a device for setting an inclination angle of the cleaning brush with respect to the vertical corresponding to the inclination angle of the at least one outer surface, a devicefor monitoring the inclination angle of the cleaning brush, and a device for regulating the inclination angle of the cleaning brush for adjusting to the inclination angle of the at least one outer surface. A method for cleaning a vehicle having at least one outer surface which is inclined by an inclination angle with respect to the vertical is also provided.
