Dual plumbing system for a hot tub or spa
Systems, apparatus and methods for providing air and water to hot tub jets. The present teachings include jet assemblies, manifold assemblies, and related components, as well as methods of assembling hot tubs involving these components. In some cases, the present teachings describe the use of dual extrusion tubing to route air and water through adjacent, connected fluid conduits. In some cases, the present teachings describe a press-and-click method of connecting various components.
HEATED AIR BATH SYSTEM
A bath system comprises a tub and a fluid injection system. The tub has a jet orifice, and the fluid injection system is fluidly coupled to the jet orifice. The fluid injection system comprises a conduit, a heat source, an air supply source, and a fluid injector. The conduit has an opening. The heat source is coupled to an outer portion of the conduit external to the opening. The air supply source is fluidly coupled to the conduit, and is configured to provide a flow of air to the central opening. The fluid injector is configured to provide water to the flow of air to produce a combined flow of air and water. The heat source and the conduit are cooperatively configured to heat the combined flow of air and water in the opening before the combined flow enters the tub through the jet orifice.

The heat source is coupled to an outer portion of the conduit external to the central opening. The air supply source is fluidly coupled to the conduit, and is configured to provide a flow of air to the central opening. The fluid injector is configured to provide an atomized spray of water to the flow of air to produce a combined flow of air and water. The heat source and the conduit are cooperatively configured to heat the combined flow of air and water in the central opening before the combined flow enters the tub through the jet orifice.
Rail pin adjustable spa headrest
An adjustable spa headrest has two side surfaces laterally disposed between front and back surfaces. A first projection extends outwardly from one of the side surfaces. A guide rail, positioned for receiving the projection, allows the spa headrest to be positioned in a number of positions. The guide rail includes a horizontal slot, a vertical slot including a number of spaced notches, each notch defined by a pair of second projections, and a spring arm depending in the vertical slot. When the first projection moves to a position between one of the second projections and the spring arm, the spring arm moves away from the second projection whereupon the spring arm applies a spring force to the first projection in a direction of second projection. In response to positioning the first projection in one of the notches, the spring arm secures the first projection in the one of the notches.
RECONFIGURABLE WATER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM FOR A WALK-IN TUB BATHING INSTALLATION WITH A SINGLE PUMP FOR MULTIPLE FUNCTIONS
A reconfigurable water distribution system for a walk-in tub bathing installation including two or more types of discharge ports for discharging water. The system includes a single motorized pump having an input connected to a suction port of the bathing installation, and an output port delivering pressurized water. A pipe system selectively connects the pump to the two or more types of discharge ports to selectively direct the pressurized water to the different ones of the types of discharge ports. The system selectively enables the bathing installation to perform a plurality of different functions using a single pump.
HEALTH PROMOTING APPARATUS
It is an object to collect objective and quantitative experimental data, etc. and clarify, based on abundant examples that a microbubble generating device is useful for health promotion, and based on this clarification provide a health promoting apparatus. A mechanical bathing apparatus as a health promoting device includes a bathtub 10 as a water tank 1, forty microbubble generating devices 2 arranged on the bottom surface 11 of the bathtub 10, a pump P for sucking hot water or the like in the bathtub 10 via a water suction pipe 3 and circulating and supplying pressurized water to the MB devices 2 via a discharge pipe 4, and an air header 5 for supplying air to the each MB device 2.

WHIRLPOOL BATH WITH DESCALING FUNCTION
A whirlpool bath with descaling function is provided. The whirlpool bath 1 comprises a bathtub body 10 including a bathtub 11, suction port 20 sucking the water contained in the bathtub 11, first jet nozzles 30 jetting bubble water into the bathtub 11, a circulation pipe 40 including a water supply pipe 41 and a return pipe 42, a pump 50 installed in the circulation pipe 40, a bypass pipe 60 branched from the water supply pipe 41 and connected to the return pipe 42 to directly return the water in the water supply pipe 41 to the pump, and a second jet nozzle 70 mixing air with water passing through the bypass pipe 60 to generate and jet bubble water. The scale of the circulation pipe 40, the pump 50 and the bypass pipe 60 is removed by bubble water generated by the second jet nozzle 70.
Water spraying device for above ground pool
An aeration nozzle for spraying water infused with air into an above-ground water cavity defined by a wall, comprising a nozzle body having at least a first internal conical portion including an upstream end and a downstream end, the downstream end being smaller than the upstream end, a water way extending through the nozzle body and the first internal conical portion, an air way extending through the nozzle body, the air way intercepting the water way within the nozzle body downstream of the first internal conical portion, and a check valve disposed along the air way that permits air to be pulled through the air way and into the water way by way of a vacuum force caused by water flowing within the water way through the first internal conical portion and prevents water from entering the air way.
