ABSTRACT OF THE INVENTION Apparatus for cleaning the central opening or bore of a vehicle wheel and an adjacent annular radial surface includes a power driven shaft mounted for rotation about and axial movement along a fixed vertical axis. A cleaning head includes a horizontal plate axially slidable upon and rotatively fixed to the upper end of the shaft. A horizontal cleaning disc is mounted upon the plate by a pair of parallel links, one of which is pivotally coupled to the upper end of the shaft to cause the disc to shift horizontally relative to the plate upon vertical movement of the disc relative to the plate and shaft. Upon upward movement of the disc into engagement with a downwardly facing radial surface of a wheel centered over the shaft in a horizontal position, further upward movement of the shaft will shift the disc horizontally until a vertical cleaning surface on the disc engages the bore of the wheel. Rotation of the cleaning head will clean the wheel surfaces of the wheel engaged by the disc and vertical surface. The linkage arrangement enables the head to self adjust to wheels of different dimensions and cross-sectional configuration which may be fed in random sequence into the apparatus.
