Attachable and detachable fluid collector assembly for extension poles

Abstract

An attachable and detachable collector assembly for collecting fluid samples from a swimming pool, pond, or the like comprising of an attachable and detachable plastic material formed into a collection chamber base for collecting and temporarily storing fluid samples. The attachable and detachable collector includes a top open portion with a throat support frame and a bottom closed portion forming a collection chamber to store fluid samples. The attachable and detachable collector can be used with or without a collector bottle to collect fluid samples within its collection chamber. An extension pole is attached to the end of the throat support frame for holding and for manipulating and moving the attachable and detachable collector assembly below the water's surface to collect and remove fluid samples. Also provided is a means for attaching the frame to the pole through a flexible clip. The means, when depressed retracts allowing the throat support frame to easy slide into the extension pole, when released it expands allowing the throat support frame portion of the collector to lock to the extension pole.
