Abstract
A pool skimmer is disclosed that comprises a base component comprised of a bar with a U-shaped net component secured to it. The net component measures two to three feet wide and is comprised of fine, stainless-steel microns. A flexible, telescopic handle is then secured to the base component. The base component is placed inside of the swimming pool and comprises a flotation system to allow the device to be positioned halfway above the water level. The U-shaped net allows a user to capture small bugs, leaves, or other unwanted debris within the swimming pool quickly and efficiently.

A pool skimmer device that allows a user to skim a pool with ease, the pool skimmer device comprising:
- a base component, wherein the base component comprises a frame which is generally rectangular in shape;
- a net component, wherein the net component is attached to the frame;
- and
- a handle;
- wherein the net component is approximately two to three feet wide;
- wherein the base component is placed inside of a swimming pool and the net component allows a user to capture unwanted debris from within the swimming pool;
- wherein the unwanted debris comprises pollen, insects, seeds, and leaves;
- wherein the frame comprises a lower frame member and an upper frame member and front and back, as well as right and left opposing side walls;
- wherein the frame is approximately two to three feet long;
- wherein edges of the net component are integrally bonded to the lower and upper frame members through a thermally activated process;
- wherein the net component is secured to the base component to form a U-shaped receptacle, with an open end, thus forming a constant, rigid passageway into the net component;
- and
- further wherein the net component is comprised of a fine, stainless-steel mesh that measures between 1-5 microns.
