CAPPED RIM SYSTEM FOR A BATHTUB
A capped bathtub system including a bathing well having a rim extending along a perimeter of an upper part of the bathing well and a rim cap configured to cover the rim. The rim cap includes a first flange that extends partially along an inner surface of the bathing well, a second flange that extends partially along an outer surface of the bathing well, and a cover portion that connects the first flange to the second flange. At least one recess is formed into a portion of the rim that is covered by the rim cap.
Situational air bubble spa machine
A situational air bubble spa machine is provided, which includes a control host, an air provider, pipe fittings, and a bubble bathmat. The control host is communicated to the air provider. The air provider and the bubble bathmat are connected through the pipe fittings. The control host includes a main body, a light emitting element arranged inside the main body, a control button set arranged on the top surface of the main body. The control button set includes a startup/shutdown button which is used to regulate the startup/shutdown of the control host, an intensity button is used to regulate the air flow provided by the air provider to the bubble bathmat, thereby regulating the bubble density, and a lighting button is used to control the startup, shutdown, and lighting mode of the light emitting elements, and a fixing bracket is arranged on the bottom surface of the main body.
METHOD FOR FACILITATING CONTROL OF A BATHING UNIT SYSTEM AND CONTROL PANEL IMPLEMENTING SAME
A method and a control panel are described for facilitating the control of a bathing unit system so that the bathing unit system is caused to transition between operating in accordance with a first operational mode to operating in accordance with a second operational mode. A control signal is generated in response to a unitary user input event performed by a user at a control panel of the bathing unit system, the control signal conveying an ambiance activation command associated with a specific ambience setting, the generation of the control signal comprising selecting the specific ambience setting from a set of ambience settings stored in a memory device. The control signal is then transmitted from the control panel to the controller over a communication link where it is processed to cause the bathing unit system to transition from being in the rest mode to operating in accordance with the specific ambience setting. The method and a control panel may allow simplifying the control of the bathing unit system in order to achieve a desired total effect by allowing a user to cause the bathing unit to operate in accordance with an ambience setting by way of a unitary user input event performed at the control panel.
PERSONAL HYGIENE CAPSULE AND METHODS OF USING SAME
A personal hygiene capsule has a housing. a toilet. at least one spray nozzle. a drain provided in a lower portion of the housing. and at least one scrub brush operably mounted to wash at least a portion of an occupant of the personal hygiene capsule. Methods of using the personal hygiene capsule are provided.
POOL PUMP
A pool pump is provided. The pool pump comprises a housing, and a control panel arranged on said housing, with a control unit connected to said control panel to form a capacitive touch control. The housing may be provided with at least one accommodation cavity, the control panel is arranged in a flippable manner at said housing, and the control panel and the end cover are in a horizontal position and at least one preset angle position. The pool pump is detachably connected to a pool pump cover, and the pool pump cover comprises: a cover body; a base connected to said cover body; and at least one functional device arranged on said cover body for implementing at least one of the functions of communication, electrical charging and music play. The pool pump adopts a pool control system for a massage pool unit of an inflatable pool, comprising an intelligent controller electrically connected to the massage pool unit, and the intelligent controller is configured to receive a usage operation to drive said pool pump so that said inflatable pool generates multiple water circulation modes.
SWIMMING POOL OR SPA WITH LOCALIZED HEATING
A system and method are provided for locally heating a sub-portion of a swimming pool or spa. The method may include controlling operation of a pump and a heater of the circulation to be in a spa mode. Controlling operation of the pump may include decreasing a flow of water through a circulation system using the pump. Controlling operation of the heater may include increasing a temperature of water flowing through the circulation system using a heater.
Bubble massage float apparatus and method
An apparatus and method for providing therapeutic bubbling massage of a person's body. The apparatus may be adapted to float on, for example, a pond, lake or pool. The apparatus may be formed of an inflatable bladder having an interior volume that is pressurized with air. The weight of a user disposed on the upper surfaces of the inflatable bladder may force a portion of the bladder below the surface of the fluid in which the apparatus is floating, such that bubbles are formed when the pressurized gas is allowed to escape the bladder through openings impacting the body of the user. The gas may be heated or may be infused with an aroma.
Remote hot tub control system
A remote hot tub control system for a hot tub includes a controller and an input device. The controller is configured to execute a draining and filling cycle of the hot tub. Upon receiving a user command at the input device to initiate the cycle, the controller commands an output valve to open and a water pump to pump used water out of the hot tub via the output valve. Upon receiving a first signal indicating that the hot tub has been drained of the used water, the controller commands the output valve to close, the water pump to stop pumping, and an input valve to open to permit fresh water to enter the hot tub. Upon receiving a second signal indicating that the hot tub has been filled, the controller commands the input valve to close.
HOT AND COLD IMMERSION TUB AND TEMPERATURE CONTROL SYSTEM THEREFOR
A contrast therapy cold plunge tub is supplied by hot and cold tempered water reservoirs, and a series of pumps and valves that allow multiple temperature change cycles that rapidly vary the water temperature within the tub between ambient, hot and cold temperatures. One example operates in a continuous immersion mode, where the water temperature is rapidly changed while the tub remains full. A further example operates in a drain and fill mode, where the tub including water at a first temperature is rapidly drained and then refilled with water at a second, different temperature. The present technology further includes a session control software application allowing users to control their user experience.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ICE BATH TEMPERATURE CONTROL AND MANAGEMENT
Systems and methods are disclosed for ice bath temperature control and management for ice baths and cold plunge tanks are disclosed. A chiller unit, connected to the plunge tank through a high-flow circulation system with quick-connect fittings and valves, uses a vapor-compression refrigeration system and advanced sensing to achieve precise temperatures, even in high ambient conditions, while reducing power consumption compared to convention systems. Local control of the chiller is provided through an onboard graphical interface and multifunction rotary knob, remote control of the chiller is provided through a mobile application on a user device. A monitoring system tracks chiller and system parameters such as water flow, temperature, ambient conditions, and tilt orientation, and uses a predictive time-to-temperature engine to optimize cooling start times based on real-time and historical data. The system supports real-time alerts, protective shutdowns, and over-the-air software updates.
