Abstract
A circulator for use with a foot bath which comprises a perforate cover having an outlet port, a base secured to said cover having at least one upstanding stator blade intermediate said base and said cover and aligned with said outlet port, an impeller is mounted for rotation with respect to said base intermediate said base and said cover, said impeller including at least one radially extending blade, said impeller including a part thereof that is manufactured of a ferromagnetic material.
Claims13
A circulator for use with an associated imperforate foot bath which comprises:
- a perforate cover having an outlet port, a base secured to said cover having at least one upstanding stator blade intermediate said base and said cover and aligned with said outlet port, an impeller is mounted for rotation with respect to said base intermediate said base and said cover, said impeller including at least one radially extending blade, said impeller including a part thereof that is manufactured of a ferromagnetic material whereby said impeller will rotate when a rotating coaxial magnetic material is disposed proximate to said impeller with magnetic engagement between said ferromagnetic material to cause said impeller to rotate;
- said radially extending blade directing water against said at least one stationary stator blade during each rotation whereby water is directed against at least said one stator blade and ejected from said outlet port upon impact with said stationary stator blade.
A circulator for use with an associated imperforate foot bath which comprises:
- a perforate cover having an outlet port,
- a base having a first face dimensioned and configured for engagement with said perforate cover, said base having at least one upstanding stator blade intermediate said first face of said base and said cover and said one upstanding stator blade being aligned with said outlet port,
- an impeller mounted for rotation with respect to said base intermediate said base and said cover, said impeller including at least one radially extending blade, said impeller including a part thereof that is manufactured of a ferromagnetic material whereby said impeller will rotate when a rotating coaxial magnetic material is disposed proximate to said impeller with magnetic engagement between said ferromagnetic material to cause said impeller to rotate;
- said radially extending blade when rotating directing a liquid against said at least one stationary stator blade during each rotation whereby a liquid is directed against at least said one stator blade and ejected from said outlet port upon impact with said stationary stator blade.
