Swimming pool bottom flushing device

A swimming pool bottom flushing device comprising:

• a tubular supporting arrangement attached to a pipe arranged at the swimming pool bottom;
• and
• a water ejector nozzle axially fitted into said supporting arrangement in a freely rotatable, vertically shiftable arrangement;
• wherein the nozzle is formed by an open-ended tubular body provided with at least one opening in its periphery and fitted at its open top with a tubular, rotationally positionable plug peripherally provided with openings of different diameters provided to selectively face the openings of the tubular body in order to control the outflow of the water jet being ejected for the flushing of the swimming pool bottom;
• and
• a safety element provided to disengageably engage the top plug with the tubular body of the nozzle, said safety element comprising a resilient, annular piece tangentially extending into a stub, said annular piece being arranged inside the top plug thereby passing the stub through a lateral orifice of said plug, said stub thus projecting from said orifice to thereby fit into one of a plurality of notches provided at the open top of the nozzle's tubular body.

A swimming pool bottom flushing device comprising:

• a tubular support body structured and arranged for attachment to a pipe arranged at the bottom of a swimming pool;
• and
• a water ejector nozzle adapted and arranged to be axially fitted into said tubular support body in a freely rotatable, vertically shiftable arrangement;
• wherein said nozzle comprises an open-ended tubular body provided with at least one opening in its periphery and fitted at its open top with a tubular, rotationally positionable plug provided with a plurality of openings of different diameters along its periphery to selectively engage and radially align with said opening of said tubular body, thereby controlling the outflow of a water jet being ejected from said nozzle for the flushing of the swimming pool bottom depending on the selected alignment of said holes;
• a bushing structured and arranged to fit within said tubular body supporting arrangement, wherein said nozzle is supported by said bushing within said tubular body;
• a plurality of lugs formed along the periphery of said tubular body and extending radially outward from said tubular body;
• a plurality of projections formed along the periphery of said bushing and extending radially inward of said bushing in an inclined plane, adapted and arranged for engaging said lugs in order to obtain intermittent rotation of said tubular body as it shifts vertically within said device;
• and
• means for urging said tubular body towards a lowered position within said device;
• wherein said means urging said tubular body towards its lowered position comprise a weight structured and arranged to be inserted into said tubular body and inferiorly held therein by retaining means comprising a ring structured and arranged to be fitted through a bayonet coupling to an open bottom of said tubular body.
