A suction head (30) for collecting liquid waste that falls to the floor during an activity such as a medical/surgical procedure. The head includes a base (50) that is disposed over the floor and a face that is located outwardly of the base. The face (116) is formed from flexible material. There are openings in the face. When liquid strikes the face, the face flexes so as to absorb the kinetic energy of the liquid. The liquid flows through the openings in the face and through a first set of openings in the base. The base has a second set of openings through which a suction is drawn. The liquid that flows through the first base openings is drawn by the suction into the second openings. The suction draws the liquid into a collection canister. The suction drawn through the second openings also draws into the head liquid on the floor adjacent the head. |
