Abstract
There is disclosed means for cleaning swimming pools or the like, to remove foreign material such as leaves, comprising a body having hollow form generally speaking, and having angularly dipsosed lips at one end which create rolling currents to raise materials from the bottom of a pool as the body is moving forwardly while submerged in the water of the pool, the body being hollow and continued movement thereof causing the materials to move through the body into a collecting member of foraminous flexible form, and collapsible to retain the material collected against movement out of the member when the body is moved rearwardly.
