The rows of scales extending between an intake (14) of the 5 collector and an outlet (16) of the collector parallel to a median axis (18) of the collector, and the rows of scales including respectively a succession of scales (20) with overlap, mounted as pivots on a support (60) with a return to a resting position, in which - each scale presents a longitudinal median scale axis (30) extending from the io proximal end (28) to the distal end (26) of the scale and forming, in the resting position of the scale, an acute angle of aperture (0) with the median axis (18) of the collector, relative to the collector intake and - each scale (20) presents a capability to pivot relative to the support (60), between the resting position and at least one bent-back position towards the outlet (14) of the 15 collector, reducing the angle of aperture. In accordance with the invention, the collector includes at least one hindrance for limiting an amplitude of divergent displacement, respectively between two successive scales (20) of a row of scales.
