Abstract
A device includes a left stand, a right stand, a first net and a second net. Each of the left and right stands includes a longitudinal pole and a lateral pole, with a lower end of the longitudinal pole connected to the lateral pole. The first net is connected to lower portions of the longitudinal poles of the left and right stands, and the second net is connected to the lateral poles of the left and right stands. When the device is in use, the first net has a lower section submerged in a body of water and an upper section above a surface of the body of water for sweeping debris in the body of water, while the second net is below the first net and has a front section before the first net for preventing debris from falling and allowing removal of debris from the body of water.

A device for removing debris from a body of water, the device comprising:
- a left stand and a right stand, each respective stand in the left and right stands comprising a corresponding longitudinal pole and a corresponding lateral pole, wherein a lower end of the corresponding longitudinal pole is connected to the corresponding lateral pole;
- a first net connected to a lower portion of the corresponding longitudinal pole of each respective stand in the left and right stands;
- a second net connected to the corresponding lateral pole of each respective stand in the left and right stands such that the second net is disposed below the first net, and has a front section before the first net;
- and
- wherein a respective stand in the left and right stands further comprises:
- a corresponding longitudinal slot formed at a side wall of the lower portion of the corresponding longitudinal pole to accommodate a left or right section of the first net,
- a corresponding longitudinal spool disposed in an interior space of the lower portion of the corresponding longitudinal pole to roll and unroll the left or right section of the first net,
- a corresponding lateral slot formed at a side wall of the corresponding lateral pole to accommodate a left or right section of the second net, and
- a corresponding lateral spool disposed in an interior space of the corresponding lateral pole to roll and unroll the left or right section of the second net.
