Device for collecting waste from water

A device for collecting waste material floating on or near a water surface, the device comprising:

• a funnel structure having a funnel edge, a funnel surface and a bottom, a base pipe, a pressure pipe and a separating arrangement,
• a hole arranged in the bottom of the funnel structure, the hole configured to be connected to the base pipe,
• wherein the base pipe leads to the separating arrangement, and the base pipe is configured to be horizontal at least near the funnel structure,
• wherein the pressure pipe is configured to blow a jet of water into the base pipe when the device is in use, and wherein the diameter of the pressure pipe is smaller than the diameter of the base pipe,
• wherein the funnel edge is arranged at least partly under the surface when the device is in use,
• wherein the device is further configured to move water containing waste material to the separating arrangement, and the device further comprises a suction pipe having a first end fixed to the hole and a second end fixed to the base pipe to configure a curved wall below the hole,
• wherein the diameter of the suction pipe and the diameter of the base pipe are equal or comprise a variation in their diameters of less than 10%,
• wherein the pressure pipe comprises an opening arranged in the curved wall such that a longitudinal axis of the jet of water at the opening and a longitudinal axis of the base pipe are convergent and a jet of water is aimed to the center of the base pipe and
• wherein a slope of the funnel surface is between 5 to 20 degrees with respect to a horizontal plane.
