Floating device for collecting or retaining debris e.g. petrol in turbulent sea, has consecutive modules and/or two connection units arranged to produce relative tightness between modules with respect to debris

摘要

The device has a connection unit (4) to allow two consecutive modules (M) to displace mutually in a vertical plane, and an articulated connection unit (5) to allow the modules to mutually inclined horizontally. The modules (M) and/or the two connection units (4, 5) are arranged in a manner that a relative tightness with respect to floating debris is produced between the two consecutive modules.
