FLOATING-REFUSE-COLLECTING BOAT

摘要

A floating-refuse-collecting boat of a twin-hulled construction includes a floating-refuse collector located in the water channel formed between the hulls. A plurality of main water-jet units are installed on the bows of the hulls for directing jets of water rearwardly through the water channel for guiding and forcing the refuse afloat in the vicinity of the entrance into the channel and toward the collector. In addition, a plurality of auxiliary water-jet units are mounted on the hulls rearwardly of the main water-jet units and in front of the collector to provide jets of water which prevents refuse from flowing out of the collector when the boat moves astern.
