Patent number: 10130164Abstract: A gantry style car wash assembly is disclosed. The car wash assembly has two opposing support pillars, a transverse gantry member, first and second opposed wall segments, and a brush mounted about a shaft. The transverse gantry member extends between the two opposing support pillars, and is moveable up and down relative to said two opposing support pillars. Each of the first and second opposed walls defines a portion of two opposing channels. The first and second removable wall segments are removably mountable above the first and second wall segments. Each wall segment includes a vertical extension channel that extends one of the two opposing channels substantially to said transverse gantry member. The brush extends between said first and second pillars, and that is mounted within said two opposing channels for upward and downward movement of said brush.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2016Date of Patent: November 20, 2018Assignee: RYKO SOLUTIONS, INC.Inventors: David Simpson, Mark Ferguson
