ABSTRACT:
A device for de-icing an external wall of a vehicle, of the type including a flexible covering (8) capable of at least partially covering the wall, and a compressor (9) whose delivery orifice (9B) is connected to the flexible covering in order to inflate it, via a control component (10). Advantageously, the intake orifice (9A) of the compressor (9) is connected to the flexible covering (8) via a controllable connection (11) which allows depressurization of the flexible covering and, when the pressure reduction reaches a predetermined value, feeds outside air to the compressor.
