Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9530798A1] An apparatus for recovering floating materials, comprising a compartment (22) with a sill (20) for receiving the material to be recovered and a system for emptying said compartment, said sill (20) forming or comprising at least one clean float at least partially immersed in the recovery compartment (22). Said apparatus is remarkable in that said sill (20) is connected to at least one float (23) borne by the body of water outside said compartment (22) so that it is sensitive both to changes of the level in the compartment and to the relative movement of the body of water outside. The connection between the sill (20) and the outside float (23) is advantageously provided by an assembly enabling relative motion between said sill and said outside float (23).
