[0018] This portable vehicle cleaning device consists of an ingenious system that facilitates effective car cleaning anywhere, focusing on a brush connected to a water-filled container. The system may include an electric pump located inside a housing attached to the container, or integrated into the container itself.

[0019] When the switch is activated, water is pumped from the container through an angled fitting and a tap, then flows through a durable hose to the brush. The brush features an ergonomic handle with an internal channel for water flow and a high-quality bristle head designed to retain water and clean without damaging the vehicle's surface. The device is made of durable materials such as plastic, ensuring its longevity and resistance to deformation. The container has a practical design, including a leak-proof lid and a handle for easy transport. Furthermore, the electric pump, which can operate outside the water, guarantees a continuous and efficient flow to the brush.

[0020] The device's structure allows for comfortable and thorough cleaning of the vehicle, thanks to its removable and easy-to-handle components, plus the flexibility of the hose that connects the different elements.

[0021] This system is not only convenient because of its portability, but also because of its ability to provide detailed cleaning anywhere, taking advantage of its rechargeable electrical power supply protected against overloads and short circuits.

[0022] With this device, vehicle cleaning becomes a simple and accessible task, offering professional results without the need to visit specialized facilities.

[0023] To use the vehicle cleaning device, the user simply needs to fill the water jug, check that the battery is charged, turn on the electric pump switch, grab the brush and start using it to clean the vehicle.
