A windshield cowling and system for collecting and conditioning rainwater from the windshield of a vehicle and utilizing the collected fluid to replenish the fluids in a conventional windshield washer reservoir. Rainwater from the windshield cowling is directed through a leading edge to a conditioning cartridge capable of treating the fluid with a surfactant to form a mixed fluid. Hatches in the cowling allow access to the existing windshield washer fluid reservoir. The conditioning cartridge is disposable and accessible directly through the cowling.

Structural gutter

A system and method of collecting and conditioning rainwater and other moisture, such as dew, from a windshield of a vehicle and utilizing the collected fluid to replenish the fluids in the windshield washer reservoir. A collection funnel is positioned on a vehicle in order to collect rainwater and other moisture. Rainwater and other fluids from the collection funnel are directed to a conditioning cartridge capable of treating the fluid with a surfactant to form a mixed fluid. An anti-freeze material may also be added. The mixed fluid is directed to the pre-existing windshield washer reservoir.

Disclosed is a canopy support arm assembly formed from a support tube having a continuous sidewall that can be cut to size at a job site. The support tube is coupled on each end by base elements having a receiver end sized for receipt of the end of the support tube and a conical shaped barrel having threads formed along an outer surface. An aperture passes through each threaded end for receipt of a threaded rod that is constructed and arranged to extend through the threaded ends and aperture using nut fasteners to provide a compression force between the elements. A first connector having a threaded receptacle engages the threaded end of the first base element, concealing one of the nut fasteners. A second connector having a threaded receptacle engages the threaded end of the second base element, concealing the other nut fastener.

A collection funnel is positioned on a vehicle in order to collect rainwater and other moisture. Rainwater and other fluids from the collection funnel are directed to a conditioning chamber where the water is treated with a concentrate and filtered. The treated fluid is then directed to a pre-existing windshield washer reservoir.

Vehicular windshield washer fluid replenishing system

A system and method of collecting and conditioning rainwater and other moisture, such as dew, from a windshield of a vehicle and utilizing the collected fluid to replenish the fluids in the windshield washer reservoir. A collection funnel is positioned on a vehicle in order to collect rainwater and other moisture. Rainwater and other fluids from the collection funnel are directed to a conditioning cartridge where the water is de-ionized and windshield washer fluid is added. The cartridges are designed to be single replaceable units. The mixed fluid from the mixing cartridge is directed to the pre-existing windshield washer reservoir.
