Abstract
A pump 120 contained in a first case 9 sucks hot water 13 in a bathtub 1 through an inlet 12 and pushes the hot water 13 upward through an outlet pipe 14 above the water surface 16. The outlet pipe 14 is coupled to jet nozzles 15, so that the hot water is shot out from the jet nozzles 15 toward the water surface 16. At this time, countless air bubbles are generated in the hot water. The first case 9 and the second case 20 together with the pump 10, a motor 11, the outlet pipe 14, the jet nozzles 15 etc. contained in these cases are installed integrally as a unitary body which is transportable.
Claims9
A current and bubble generating apparatus for a body of liquid having a level, said level of said body being selectively variable and said apparatus comprising:
- a pump having a liquid inlet for intaking liquid from said body;
- outlet means connected to said pump for receiving liquid from said pump;
- jet nozzles connected to said outlet means, said nozzles permitting said liquid to issue therefrom into said body in order to create current and bubbles therein, said nozzles including vertically adjustable means so as to be positionable just above said body of liquid for all levels of said body;
- silencer means surrounding said nozzles for deadening noise of said liquid issuing from said jet nozzles;
- and
- case means for enclosing said pump and a portion of said outlet means, said case means and its contents along with said jet nozzles and said silencer means all being portable.
A current and bubble generating apparatus for a body of liquid having a level, said level, said level of said body being selectively variable and said apparatus comprising;
- a pump having a liquid inlet for intaking liquid from said body;
- outlet means connected to said pump for receiving liquid from said pump, said outlet means being adjustable toward and away from said body of liquid;
- jet nozzles connected to said outlet means, said nozzles permitting said liquid to issue therefrom into said body in order to create currents and bubbles therein, said nozzles being positioned on said outlet means, and being vertically adjustable therewith to a plurality of fixed, vertical positions just above the body of liquid regardless of the selected level of said body;
- a first case for containing said pumb and a first portion of said outlet means;
- and
- a second case for containing said jet nozzles and a second portion of said outlet means, said first case and said second case being connected by said outlet means, and both said cases and their contents being portable.
A water current and bubble generating apparatus for a bath, said apparatus generates air bubbles in water contained in the bath by sending jet currents of water therethrough, said apparatus comprising:
- a motor;
- a pump driven by said motor;
- an inlet coupled to said pump;
- an outlet pipe having an end coupled to said pump;
- jet nozzles coupled to said outlet pipe, said jet nozzles shoot water from said outlet pipe into said bath;
- said motor, said pump, said inlet, said outlet pipe and said jet nozzles all being formed as a unitary body which is detachable from said bath and which are all contained in a transportable case, said case comprising a first and a second portion, said first portion contains said motor, said pump, said inlet and a part of said outlet pipe, and said second portion contains another part of said outlet pipe and said jet nozzles, said first case and said second case being connected by said outlet pipe, said first case being placeable in said bath while said second case is supported by said outlet pipe above the water in said bath;
- and
- a noise silencer surrounding each of the jet nozzles, said
- silencer being vertically adjustable.
