Abrégé

The invention relates to a scraper (1) including means (4) for spraying onto a surface through a hole (41) and a scraper body (5) with a resilient scraping element (6) having an edge (7) that is used to scrape a smooth surface. The invention is characterised in that, close to a face (9) of the scraping element (6), the body (5) includes liquid-collection means (10) on a substrate (11) which can absorb residual liquid and is connected to a pipe (20), said liquid-collection means including an end surface (40) that can come into contact with the aforementioned face (9). The invention also relates to a household appliance including one such scraper (1).

Abrégé

The invention relates to a vacuum cleaner (100) in which drawn-in particle-laden air flows between an inlet nozzle (3) and a hole (119) communicated with a suction chamber (60). The vacuum cleaner is characterised in that it includes a water/air separator (1) disposed between an upstream pipe (2) and suction means, which can direct the gaseous phase into the suction chamber (60) and the particles into a container (22). The invention also relates to a heating body (201) built into the vacuum cleaner (100) and characterised in that it comprises a filament embedded in ceramic materials and a spray chamber (135) formed by a helical space between two bodies or casings (134; 137) nested inside one another, at least one of said bodies or casings (134; 137) taking the form of a ceramic body containing an embedded metal filament (130; 140).
