Abstract
A conveyor for transporting a vehicle along a track through a carwash is adapted to selectively lift a roller mechanism through a first opening at the forward end of the tire track for engaging the front tire of a vehicle to convey the vehicle along the track until the rear tire moves beyond the first opening whereupon the roller mechanism engaging the front tire drops through another opening at an intermediate location along the track and a second roller mechanism is lifted through the first opening behind the rear tire so as to engage the rear tire and then convey the vehicle to the rearward end of the tire track. An improved roller mechanism is provided with three pairs of rollers consisting of a first pair adapted to travel above the tire track, a second pair adapted to travel on the top surface of the tire track, and a third adapted to travel below the tire track, the first roller pair being disposed at a predetermined height above the tire track for more efficiently transferring force to the tire of the vehicle while conveying the vehicle along the track.
