Abstract

Apparatus and methods for a pool filtration system includes a basket with a netting that is customizably designed and versatile in its functionality. The basket can be made from modern plastic or plastic-like materials. The weather-resistant, durable materials benefit the netting design for capturing and holding debris in a pool filtration system.

Claims (25)

1 . A swimming pool filter basket comprising:

a netting comprised primarily of a plastic material; and

a rim coupled to the netting, the rim to fit into a basket-holding cavity of a swimming pool, the rim comprised primarily of the plastic material.

2 . The device of claim 1 , further comprising a handle coupled to the rim.

3 . The device of claim 2 , wherein the handle is operable to pivot into a position in general alignment with the rim.

4 . The device of claim 1 , wherein the handle is comprised primarily of the plastic material.

5 . The device of claim 1 , wherein the rim and the netting fit into a universally designed space for a filter basket.

6 . The device of claim 1 , wherein the netting is pleated.

7 . The device of claim 1 , wherein the netting is seamless.

8 . The device of claim 1 , wherein the netting comprises holes with a homogeneous distribution of hole diameters.

9 . The device of claim 1 , wherein the netting comprises holes with a heterogeneous distribution of hole diameters.

10 . The device of claim 1 , wherein the netting is coupled to the rim by at least one of welding, adhesion/cohesion, hanging, or clasping.

11 . A method of filtering a swimming pool water filter basket, the method comprising:

configuring a netting to fit into a basket-holding cavity of a swimming pool;

configuring a rim to fit into the basket-holding cavity of the swimming pool; and

coupling the netting to the rim.

12 . The method of claim 11 , further comprising coupling a handle to the rim.

13 . The method of claim 12 , wherein the handle is operable to be incorporated into the rim.

14 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the netting is comprised primarily of a plastic material.

15 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the rim is comprised primarily of a plastic material.

16 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the sizing further comprises dimensioning the netting and the rim to fit into a universal-size space for a filter basket.

17 . The method of claim 11 , further comprising pleating the netting.

18 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the netting is seamless.

19 . The method of claim 11 , wherein configuring the netting comprises configuring holes in the netting with a heterogeneous distribution of hole diameters.

20 . The method of claim 11 , wherein coupling comprises at least one of welding, adhering/cohering, hanging, or clasping.
