Abstract
A device for recovering drinking water from condensate includes a self-supporting moulded partformed of a transparent synthetic resin such as PET or PC, which is resistant to UV radiation. The moulded partpresents an open bottom areawith a collecting channelon the edge side, with the collecting channelpresenting an inner walloriented towards the circumferential surfaceand serving, at the same time, as floating aid, and with the moulded partbeing provided with a pouring opening in its upper section. For the manufacture of this device, a vacuum is created in a special deep-drawing tool not only in the region of the circumferential surface to be produced but also in the region of the collecting channel to be formed, and the moulded part is separated from a separated deep-drawing tool element outside the zone of the collecting channel.
