Abstract

L'invention concerne un système d'aspiration de surfaces dures (10; 100; 120; 140; 160) comprenant un appareil d'aspiration de surfaces dures portable (12) servant à aspirer un mélange de liquide et d'air d'une surface dure, en particulier d'une vitre de fenêtre, et équipé d'une buse d'aspiration (18), d'un groupe d'aspiration (44), d'un dispositif de séparation (32) qui est disposé dans le chemin du flux entre la buse d'aspiration (18) et le groupe d'aspiration (44) et qui est relié à un réservoir de liquide sale (56), et d'une poignée (16) pour saisir l'appareil d'aspiration de surfaces dures. Pour étendre la zone d'application de l'appareil d'aspiration de surfaces dures (12) à des zones qui sont au-delà de la portée immédiate de l'utilisateur, le système d'aspiration de surfaces dures comporte un dispositif d'allonge (14; 104; 124; 144; 164), qui est relié de manière détachable à l'appareil d'aspiration de surfaces dures et qui comprend une poignée (96; 174) qui peut être saisie par l'utilisateur.
