ABSTRACT:
A swimming pool skimming device is disclosed for use with a pool sweeping device connected to a source of water pressure to propel the pool sweeping device within the swimming pool. The invention includes a body member having a specific gravity substantially less than one enabling the body member to provide buoyancy. The body member has a central cavity communicating with an open bottom in the body member. Means are provided for rigidily mounting the body member to the surface unit of the pool sweeping device to provide floatation thereto. A filter is established relative to the open body member with a plurality of water inputs communicating with the central cavity of the body member to enable surface water of the swimming pool to enter the central cavity and to exit through the open bottom with the filter collecting debris accompanying the surface water. The plurality of water inputs may include one way gates located on opposed sides of the body member enabling input of water into the central cavity during both forward and reverse movement of the skimming device. The skimming device is compatible for use with existing pool sweeping devices by replacing the standard float on the pool sweeping device with the pool skimming device. The foregoing abstract is merely a resume of one general application, is not a complete discussion of all principles of operation or applications, and is not to be construed as a limitation on the scope of the claimed subject matter.
