  • Patent number: 10125508
    Abstract: A swimming pool funnel includes a hollow funnel body extending along a central funnel axis from a first open end to a second open end, where the first open funnel end is greater in perimeter size than the second open funnel end and the funnel body reduces in cross-sectional size between the first open funnel end and the second open funnel end. An elongated spout made of rigid material is connected at its proximal end to the second open funnel end of the funnel body and extends along a central spout axis to a distal spout end defining an opening. The central funnel axis and the central spout axis define a body angle from 100 to about 150 degrees.
