Abstract

The invention relates to a switching apparatus for high pressure tools, comprising a holding device and two or more high pressure tools for cleaning purposes, a drive device, and a rotary body that is rotatable relative to the holding device about an axis of rotation by means of said drive device, an adjusting device with which one of the high pressure tools is selectively transferable from an inoperative position into an operating position, in which operating position the high pressure tool is coupled to the rotary body in a rotationally fixed manner and is rotationally drivable about a tool axis by way of said rotary body, wherein the switching apparatus comprises or forms a supply channel for pressurized cleaning liquid and the respective high pressure tool comprises or forms a tool channel for cleaning liquid, which is in flow connection or can be brought into flow connection with the supply channel during operation, wherein the switching apparatus further comprises a valve device with which the supply channel is selectively unblockable and closable, wherein the supply channel is formed in the rotary body at least in sections and the valve device is arranged on the rotary body.
