Zusammenfassung:1,254,518. Clearing oil from polluted water. OCEAN POLLUTION CONTROL Inc. 1 April, 1970 [1 April, 1969], No. 15389/70. Heading B7A. Apparatus for skimming an oil film from the surface of the sea comprises a towed funnel with a flexible cover 12 and side skirts 18 of oil impermeable material, floats 22 to keep the leading edge 14 above the water, a net panel 20 holding the skirts downwardly to confine the oil laterally while allowing the water to escape freely, and a sump 40 supported by an inflatable collar 42 and connected by pipes 48, 56 with a tanker barge 28. The funnel is expanded by other boards 25, and inflatable booms 60 direct the oil into the funnel's mouth. In a modification (Fig. 5, not shown) the boom structure 26, 30 is adapted to tow three separate funnels.
