[0002] Roadside parking lots usually have sanitary facilities, where sanitary buildings can be used. These sanitary buildings are used by many people and often raise doubts about their adequate sanitary safety. On the other hand, when traveling by car or camping in places without sanitary facilities, it is not possible to shower. There are millions of drivers around the world who do not have the opportunity to meet the basic sanitary needs, such as showering. Fixed showers are available only in a few parking lots, where the sanitary conditions of the shower are not ideal due to the fact that there are over 100 drivers at such a parking lot at the same time.

[0003] A simple solution for a mobile shower is known. Most often, it is a small shower cubicle on a frame that can be folded by itself, similar to a small travel tent. A light cover with a zippered entrance is installed on the frame. The created shower cubicle does not have a floor. Showering is done by pouring water from a container placed inside, or in more advanced versions, by pumping water to the end of a hose. In both cases, the problem of waste water arises. In the case of a shower cubicle without a floor, the waste water containing the washing agent leaks outside, polluting the environment. In the case of a shower cubicle with a floor, the problem is even greater, because the water inside the shower cubicle must be removed and the environment is correspondingly polluted. This type of shower cubicle is easily disassembled and folded, occupies a small space, however, it does not allow washing with hot water and does not have the ability to ecologically treat waste water. If you want to use such an existing shower, it is not usable inside the truck cabin.

[0004] Publication No. CN211796086U discloses a portable mobile shower, comprising: a folding tent, a shower head, a cold and hot water mixer; the folding tent is composed of a tent support, a roof, a side fence, a sewage tank and a water seepage plate; the roof is sleeved into the outside of the top end of the tent support, the side fence is sleeved into the outside of the lower side of the tent support, and the side fence and the roof are connected through a zipper; the sewage tank is placed at the bottom of the tent support, and the sewage tank is located on the inner side of the side fence; the water seepage plate is buckled and installed above the sewage tank; the shower head is suspended and installed on the upper part of the tent support; the utility model improves the portable mobile shower, has the advantages of reasonable structure design, convenient folding, reducing the overall volume by folding, convenient storage, convenient carrying, more flexible and convenient use, and convenient showering, thereby effectively solving the problems and deficiencies in the prior art.
