ABSTRACT:
A strainer basket is integrally connected to a rectangular frame that is integrally connected to an elongated handle. At the end of the handle opposite from the frame, the handle broadens into a grip and then narrows and terminates in a small hook; the small hook is designed for removing the covers of skimmer wells in swimming pools. An elongated flange projects from the rectangular frame on the frame side opposite to the handle, and forms an elongated hook that is useful for grasping skimmer basket handles; thus, the tool permits removal and cleaning of skimmer baskets from pool skimmer wells without the user having to bend over and risk contact of their hands with pool scum, dead leaves, and the occasional live snake or other undesirable live or deceased animals encountered during the cleaning of pool skimmers.
Preferably, the tool is formed from a polypropylene homopolymer or other chemically resistant polymer, and is molded in an injection molding process, with the elongated hook of the frame formed by use of a core mounted between upper and lower mold sections.
