Suction float and collecting device, and collection vessel

Abstract

A suction float (1) for removing liquid and/or foam-like contaminants (22) from surfaces (21) of liquids (2), wherein the contaminants are drawn off downwards from the upper surface (111) of the float via a suction pipe section (12). For this purpose the float (1) has a first duct (13) extending from the upper surface (111) to the underside (112) for the suction pipe section to pass through and a second duct (14) from the underside (112) to the upper surface (111) of the float, wherein after passing through the first duct (13) the suction pipe section (12) is guided along the underside (112) of the float (11) and is designed to penetrate into the second duct (14), wherein the float (11) is movable along the suction pipe section (12). The invention further relates to a collecting device having a suction float (1) and to a collection vessel.
