To provide a technique that can increase the accuracy of detecting a vehicle.SOLUTION: A car washer 10 includes: a body part 11 having a pair of leg frames 11A standing on a ground G, the body part being movable to a vehicle C relatively back and forth; and a vehicle detector 26 having a light emission unit EU and a light reception unit RU provided in the leg frames 11A, respectively, the vehicle detector detecting the vehicle C between the light emission unit EU and the light reception unit RU. The light emission unit EU has a plurality of light emission elements E, and the light emission elements E are arranged in a matrix along the direction in which the body part 11 stands and in the front-back direction.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】車両検出の精度を向上することのできる技術を提供する。【解決手段】洗車装置１０は、地面Ｇに起立する一対の脚フレーム１１Ａを有し、車両Ｃに対して相対的に前後に移動可能な本体部１１と、一対の脚フレーム１１Ａのそれぞれに設けられた発光部ＥＵおよび受光部ＲＵを有し、発光部ＥＵと受光部ＲＵとの間で車両Ｃを検出する車両検出部２６と、を備える。発光部ＥＵは、複数の発光素子Ｅを有し、本体部１１の起立方向および前後方向に沿って発光素子Ｅが並んで行列配置されている。【選択図】図１
