[0019] Please see Figures 1 to 3 An oil spill recovery device includes an oil boom 15 and a top cover 12. An oil suction pipe 8 is fixedly connected to the top of the top cover 12. An oil collection hopper 9 is fixedly connected to the oil suction pipe 8 to facilitate the transport of oil spilled from the water surface to the interior of the oil suction pipe 8 through the oil collection hopper 9. Multiple vertical support rods 6 are provided on the outer surface of the oil suction pipe 8. The multiple vertical support rods 6 are hollow and each of the multiple vertical support rods 6 has an elastic component inside. A connecting rod 1 is provided below each of the multiple vertical support rods 6, and a float ball 10 is fixedly connected to the bottom of each of the multiple connecting rods 1.

[0020] Multiple horizontal support rods 7 are provided between multiple vertical support rods 6 and oil suction pipe 8. An oil pump 14 is fixedly installed on the top of the top cover 12. A hydraulic motor 13 is fixedly installed on the surface of the oil pump 14. The oil inlet of the oil pump 14 passes through the top cover 12 and is fixedly connected to the top of the oil suction pipe 8. A conduit 20 is fixedly installed at the oil outlet of the oil pump 14. The oil spilled on the water surface is recovered by the action of the hydraulic motor 13 in conjunction with the oil pump 14. Multiple vertical grooves 17 are opened on the outer surface of the oil containment boom 15. Multiple mounting rods 16 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the top cover 12. The bottom ends of the multiple mounting rods 16 are installed into the corresponding vertical grooves 17, so that the top cover 12 can be installed on the top of the oil containment boom 15. The oil collection hopper 9 is flared. Multiple support legs 11 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the oil containment boom 15, so that the support legs 11 can be used to stably insert into the bottom of the water surface.

The multiple first studs 18 and the multiple second studs 19 are respectively threaded onto the outer surfaces of the corresponding vertical support rods 6 and the oil suction pipe 8. The first studs 18 and the second studs 19 facilitate the quick assembly and connection of the horizontal support rods 7 with the vertical support rods 6 and the oil suction pipe 8.
