Abstract

La présente invention se rapporte au domaine du lavage des mains, en particulier le lavage et le séchage des mains dans des toilettes publiques. Par conséquent, la présente invention concerne un dispositif de lavage des mains, en particulier un dispositif de mouillage des mains, de déposition d'une composition de lavage et/ou de désinfection et de rinçage consécutifs à l'aide d'une petite quantité d'eau. On a découvert qu'on peut utiliser un ensemble buse de projection d'air et d'eau comprenant deux buses, la première buse étant en communication fluidique avec une source de liquide d'alimentation et une deuxième buse raccordée à une source d'air comprimé pour laver les mains à l'aide de petites quantités d'eau en peu de temps.
