A device for detecting the position of a wheeled vehicle while driving into a vehicle treatment facility, wherein near the floor at least one electrical switching device is arranged, which is activated when it is driven over by at least one wheel of the vehicle. An evaluation unit determines from the activation of the switching unit the instantaneous position of the wheel and thus of the vehicle. The switching device is configured as a contact grid in the form of a two-dimensional matrix, especially a contact mat, with a plurality of electrical switches, wherein an electrical switch is allocated to each point of the matrix, and wherein the evaluation unit is configured so that the activation of the switches can be detected individually by the evaluation unit.

What is claimed is: 1. In a device for detecting the position of a wheeled vehicle while driving into a vehicle treatment facility, wherein near the floor at least one electrical switching device is arranged, which is activated when it is driven over by at least one wheel of the vehicle, with an evaluation unit, which determines from the activation of the switching unit the instantaneous position of the wheel and thus of the vehicle, the improvement characterized in that the switching device is configured as a contact grid in the form of a two-dimensional matrix, especially a contact mat, with a plurality of electrical switches, wherein an electrical switch is allocated to each point of the matrix, and wherein the evaluation unit is configured so that the activation of the switches can be detected individually by the evaluation unit. 2. Device according to claim 1, characterized in that the width of the contact grid corresponds to at least the maximum track width of the vehicles to be treated, wherein at least two wheels of the vehicle lying in different tracks can activate the contact grid. 3. Device according to claim 1, characterized in that at least two contact grids arranged next to each other approximately at the spacing of the average track width of the vehicles to be treated are provided, wherein at least two wheels of the vehicle lying in different tracks can activate the corresponding contact grid. 4. Device according to claim 2, characterized in that the length of the contact grid or each contact grid corresponds to at least the maximum wheel base of the vehicles to be treated, wherein both the front and rear wheels can activate the contact grid simultaneously. 5. Device according to claim 2, characterized in that behind the contact grid or each contact grid (2), approximately at the spacing of the maximum wheel base of the vehicles to be treated, another contact grid is arranged, whereby both the front and rear wheels can activate a contact grid simultaneously. 6. Device according to claim 1, characterized in that an averaging device, which calculates the average position value when several switches of a contact grid are activated by the same wheel and which delivers the value to the evaluation device, is assigned to each contact grid. 7. Device according to claim 1, characterized in that the contact grid is a pneumatic mat and that the electrical switches are activated indirectly by an increase in pressure in the individual pneumatic elements of the pneumatic mat. 8. Device according to claim 1, characterized in that the evaluation unit determines the longitudinal position and/or the transverse position and/or the diagonal position of the vehicle to be treated. 9. Device according to claim 1, characterized in that it has a display unit that is visible to the driver for display of the position of the vehicle as determined by the evaluation unit. 10. Vehicle treatment facility, characterized by a device according to claim 1 in its drive-in region. 11. Vehicle treatment facility according to claim 10, characterized in that it is a vehicle washing facility, especially a gantry washing facility or a drive-through car wash.
