Abstract

La présente invention concerne un appareil de collecte des liquides s'écoulant d'un véhicule en cours de lavage. Cet appareil comporte un bac collecteur portable (20) adaptable au pourtour et partiellement en dessous d'un véhicule sans déplacer le véhicule. Le bac collecteur portable (20) comporte des collecteurs latéraux (22 - 25) se plaçant des deux côtés du véhicule pour collecter l'eau s'écoulant sur les bords opposés du véhicule et des collecteurs d'extrémités (21, 26) se plaçant à chaque extrémité du véhicule. Une pompe de récupération (51), un flexible (53) et un filtre (54) transportent le liquide depuis le bac collecteur (20) vers la cuve de collecte (13) en vue d'une réutilisation.
