Abstract
An integrated connection device may connect a controller to a swimming pool that may include one or more features requiring electricity. The integrated connection device may include an air passageway and an electrical conductor. Thus, the integrated connection device may transport air to the swimming pool and at least partially conceal the electrical conductor that connects the one or more electrical features to the controller.
Claims54
An inflatable pool, comprising:
- an inflatable pool body including:
- an inner side wall,
- an outer side wall disposed around the inner side wall,
- a top wall connected to a top of the inner side wall and a top the outer side wall, and
- a bottom wall connected to a bottom of the inner side wall and a bottom of the outer side wall;
- a controller releasably coupled to the inflatable body;
- and
- a luminous device including a luminous strip coupled to a bottom side of the bottom wall, the luminous device being coupled to the controller to receive electrical power from the controller,
- wherein the bottom wall includes a light-transmitting material, and
- wherein the controller includes an air pump to provide air to the inflatable body and a water pump to provide water to the inflatable body.
(canceled)
An integrated structure for connecting an air passage and a circuit, comprising:
- an outlet pipe component comprising a first face and a first air passage extending along an axis that intersects the first face, and a first electrical connection terminal positioned proximate the first face;
- an inlet pipe component comprising a second face facing the first face of the outlet pipe component, a second air passage configured to fluidly connect to the first air passage of the outlet pipe component, and a second electrical connection terminal positioned proximate the second face and configured to connect to the first electrical terminal;
- and
- a joint configured to connect the outlet pipe component to the inlet pipe component, wherein, when the joint connects the outlet pipe component to the inlet pipe component, the first air passage of the outlet pipe component and the second air passage of the inlet pipe component connect to form an air passage connection extending from the air inlet pipe component through the outlet pipe component, and the first electrical connection terminal of the outlet pipe component couples to the second electrical connection terminal of the inlet pipe component to form an electrical connection therewith.
An integrated connection device configured to connect a controller to an inflatable pool having an air cavity and a water cavity, the integrated connection device comprising:
- an inlet pipe coupled to the controller and comprising an inlet air passageway and an inlet electrical conductor positioned at least partially within the inlet pipe,
- an outlet pipe including a portion positioned between the inlet pipe and the inflatable pool, the outlet pipe comprising an outlet air passageway and an outlet electrical conductor positioned at least partially within the outlet pipe, and
- a joint configured to couple the inlet pipe to the outlet pipe, the inlet air passageway being coupled to the outlet air passageway when the joint couples the inlet pipe to the outlet pipe.
An inflatable pool, the inflatable pool comprising:
- an inflatable body having an inner wall and an outer wall, the inner wall bounding a water cavity of the inflatable pool and the inner wall and the outer wall bounding at least a portion of an inflatable chamber of the inflatable body;
- a controller including an air pump and an electrical power supply;
- at least one electrically powered accessory;
- and
- a conduit connecting the controller to the inflatable body, the conduit including an air passageway coupling the air pump to the inflatable chamber of the inflatable body and an electrical conductor electrically coupling the at least one electrically powered accessory to the electrical power supply.
