| 20120012535 | OIL SKIMMER CONVEYOR - An oil skimmer conveyor includes an inclined frame attached to a boat or other structure. Upper and lower rollers are connected to the frame, and a continuous belt is supported by the rollers. The lower roller extends into the water, and is at least partially submerged in water. The belt is more permeable to water than to oil, and rotates about the rollers. Water passes through the belt, and oil is carried out of the water by the belt and collected in the boat. | 01-19-2012 |
