    摘要: An apparatus and method for treating a plastic molded article. The apparatus includes a treatment chamber that can be closed and temperature-controlled. A vapor generating unit generates vapor of a treatment liquid. A fluid connection between the treatment chamber and the vapor generating unit feeds vapor to the treatment chamber and returns condensate back to the treatment chamber. A pressure equalizing device transfers waste air at atmospheric pressure and equalizes pressure with the atmospheric pressure during treatment. The pressure equalizing device retains vapor and prevents vapor from escaping into the atmosphere. A vapor phase is generated by heating a treatment liquid to its boiling point. The treatment liquid includes a solvent that dissolves or solubilizes the plastic. The article is exposed to the vapor phase for a predetermined time and removed from the vapor phase. Residual treatment liquid present on the article is removed.

    摘要: A foam generator, in particular for a motor vehicle washing installation, includes a foam generation chamber having at least one inlet for water, surfactant and gas, in particular compressed gas, and one outlet for foam, and contains a fluid-permeable bed of loose particles. The bed fills the foam generation chamber sufficiently to prevent fluidization of the bed.

    摘要: An automatic generation of washing programs for an automatic vehicle washing installation is provided. For this purpose, a washing program generator with a washing program generation unit is provided. This includes an input interface for reading-in an equipment data set which represents how the washing installation is currently equipped with machine components, a processor unit for computation of a group of function blocks based on the equipment data set read-in via the input interface, a user interface which is intended for outputting the group of function blocks computed by the processor unit and is intended for detection of a selection of the output function blocks, wherein the processor unit is further intended to compute a washing program based on the detected selected function blocks for operation of the washing installation.
