Abstract
Washing devices, systems and methods comprise a brushing apparatus including vertical, elongated stanchions supporting a flexible, wave-like brush carrier. An array of brushes is mounted to the front of the brush carrier. In particular embodiments the brushes include hubs which are received within apertures formed by the brush carrier. The systems may include a single, relatively-wide stanchion, or multiple stanchions. The stanchions are articulated in an up-and-down, optionally orbital, movement. Spray nozzles and lights may be included in the stanchions and/or brush carrier.
