Filed:

Appl. No.:

13/716121

Inventors:

Mick George LYRISTAKIS - Bonita Springs FL, US

International Classification:

E04H 4/06

US Classification:

4507

Abstract:

A pool drain cover includes a center hub which can be rotated with respect to an outer portion. A twisting of the center hub causes multiple (e.g., three or more) engagement arm assemblies to extend such that their distal ends engage the inner surface of a pool drain pipe, thereby holding the pool drain cover in place. The distal ends of the engagement arms may be provided with an anti-slip coating such as, for example, vinyl, rubber, etc., and/or an anti-slip finish. Alternatively, a metal (e.g., stainless steel) tab extending from the distal end of each of the engagement arm assemblies can be provided. The engagement arm assemblies can be released by twisting the center hub in the opposite direction, thereby permitting the pool drain cover to be removed.
