PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a car shape detection device which can create car shape data even if an amount of light is insufficient due to generation of scattered water and steam or dirt of an element by washing, and a car washing machine equipped with the device.SOLUTION: A car shape detection device comprises a strong light mode. According to this car shape detection device comprising the strong light mode, adjacent two or more light-emitting elements in a light-emitting part 5a are so made as to be light-emitting sets, an optical axis B1, which causes the light-emitting elements of said light-emitting sets to simultaneously emit light and receives light by one light-receiving element Ra horizontally facing one light-emitting element La, and optical axes B3, B4, which cause the light-emitting elements La, La+1 of said light-emitting sets to simultaneously emit light and receive light by light-receiving elements Ra+x, Ra-x which are separated up or down from the light-receiving element Ra by two pieces or more, are formed, detection operation for detecting a vehicle body by the optical axis B1 and detection operation for detecting the vehicle body by the optical axes B3, B4 are repeatedly executed for the light-emitting sets, and left and right positions of the vehicle body, which are detected at the optical axis B1, are determined with respect to the optical axis B1 which has detected the vehicle body, based on the vehicle body detection result of the optical axes B3, B4 crossing the optical axis B1.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 6
【課題】本発明の課題は、洗浄による飛散水や湯気の発生あるいは素子の汚れ等によって光量が不足した場合であっても、車形データを作成することができる車形検出装置及びこの装置を備えた洗車機を提供するものである。【解決手段】 発光部5aにおける隣接した2つ以上の発光素子を発光組とし、該発光組の発光素子を同時に発光させ、その一方の発光素子Laと水平に対向する1つの受光素子Raで受光する光軸B1と、該発光組の発光素子La・La+1を同時に発光させ、受光素子Raから上もしくは下に2つ以上離れた受光素子Ra+x・Ra-xで受光する光軸B3・B4とを形成し、光軸B1で車体を検出する検出動作と、光軸B3・B4で車体を検出する検出動作とを発光組分繰り返し実行し、車体を検出した光軸B1に対して、この光軸B1と交差する光軸B3・B4の車体検出結果に基づいて光軸B1において検出された車体の左右位置を判定する強光検出モードを備えた。【選択図】図6
