  • Patent number: 5172445
    Abstract: A hydraulic cleaner device comprises a water pump for drawing water from a pool through a tube, an open bottom casing divided into two compartments by a partition wall delimiting an inlet for an axial turbine having a rotor that drives a shaft connected by a reducing and transmitting mechanism to a set of wheels supporting the casing and a brush sweeping unit for movement along the bottom of the pool. One of the compartments of the casing is placed downstream of the axial turbine and is connected to the tube leading to the pump. An immersed buoyancy member is connected to the casing.

  • Patent number: 4502172
    Abstract: A vacuum cleaner head for use in swimming pools comprises a flexible sheet of material having a suction aperture therethrough, means for attaching to the sheet a device for applying suction through said aperture and means providing spacing of said flexible sheet from the interior surfaces of the pool when in use. The head, when caused to move over the interior surface of the pool, may flex at least around axes both transverse and parallel to the direction of movement. Such a cleaner head provides significant advantages in cleaning contoured pool walls or floors since it will flex in practically any direction and is of simple construction. It is preferred to make the head out of high specific gravity rubber or synthetic rubber material.
