摘要: A conveyer arrangement adapted to be used onto a barge or similar boat in combination therewith and including two superjacent endless-belt conveyers arranged cooperatively pick up floating pollutant, such as oil, convey the same upwardly between adjacent runs of respective which are driven at substantially linear speed. Transverse ribs secured top extend therefrom into liquid-tight edgewise engagement with run bottom endless belt cooperation longitudinally extending flexible wings laterally confine picked-up pollutant water during upward displacement thereof intermediate runs. The pivoted bow is provided ballast tanks adjust dipping depth outer end conveyers.
