Embodiments of the present disclosure provide an improved pool. Embodiments of the present disclosure also provide a method of making an improved pool. The pool can comprise an unitary sidewall joined to a floor portion. The unitary sidewall can be constructed from one piece of material, and can have fewer seams than traditional pools, thereby reducing the likelihood that that pool will rupture and leak. In some embodiments, since the pool has fewer seams than traditional pools, fewer manufacturing steps are required to make the pool. This can increase manufacturing speed and decrease cost.

Provided herein is a resin composition containing milled fibreglass and graphene. Also provided herein is a composite material containing cured resin composition, fibreglass reinforced resin containing the composite material and further fibreglass, a laminate including a layer of the fibreglass reinforced resin, and methods of making the resin composition, composite material and fibreglass reinforced resin. The composition, composite material and fibreglass reinforced resin and laminate find use in, for example, the construction of swimming pools and spa pools.

This invention relates to a swimming pool wall having a drainage groove. The side wall (2) of the swimming pool and the drainage groove (10) are formed from a single piece of material. The slope wall (4) of the drainage groove (10), which is linked to the side wall (2) of the swimming pool, directly adjoins the swimming pool overflow edge (3).

A combination of a first separate and independent pool component and a second separate and independent pool component includes a first frame portion having a frame support component for the first pool component, and a second frame portion having a frame support component for the second pool component. The second frame portion is complementary with the first frame portion. A latch assembly has a first latch component and a second latch component. The first latch component is adapted to be removably coupled to the second latch component. The first latch component of the latch assembly is attached to the frame support component of the first frame portion of the first pool component, and the second latch component of the latch assembly is attached to the frame support component of the second frame portion of the second pool component. The first pool component and the second pool component are placed so that their complementary frame portions and the cooperating first and second latch components are aligned, and the first latch component of the latch assembly is operatively attached to the second latch component with which it is aligned.

The invention relates to a speed reducer (10) with two intermediate transmission lines (16), in particular for a turbine engine, including an input line (12) and an output line (14) driven by the input line via said intermediate lines, said intermediate lines being substantially parallel, characterised in that it includes load-distribution means between said intermediate lines, said load-distribution means comprising ball-and-socket means (30) for rotatably coupling a first end of the input line, first means (34) for damping the radial movements of said end of the input line, and second means (34) for damping the radial movements of a second opposite end of the input line.

The present invention provides a above ground pool, comprising a flexible pool body. The flexible pool body comprises: a polygonal bottom sheet that comprises a plurality of edge portions; and a plurality of side sheets, each side sheet comprising a pool sidewall portion and a pool bottom portion, and each of the pool sidewall portions and each of the pool bottom portions being in the shape of an isosceles trapezoid. Each of pool sidewall portion comprises a first upper-base portion, a first lower-base portion and a first middle portion defined between the first upper-base portion and the first lower-base portion, and each of the pool bottom portion comprises a second upper-base portion, a second lower-base portion and a second middle portion defined between the second upper-base portion and the second lower-base portion. The first lower-base portion and the second lower-base portion coincide to define a junction of the pool sidewall portion and pool bottom portion. The first middle portions of the side sheets are successively connected to form a side wall of the above ground pool and the second middle portions are successively connected to form an outer ring of the bottom of the above ground pool. The second upper-base portions of the pool bottom portions are respectively connected to the edge portions of the bottom sheet. In the above ground pool of the present invention, joints are moved to a side wall of the swimming pool or the bottom of the swimming pool as much as possible, thereby reducing the length of joints passing through a heavily stressed area to the greatest extent, simplifying production processes, reducing costs, and reducing the probability of water leakage from the above ground pool.

A manufacture includes a main basin having a floor and a perimeter wall and a fountain basin disposed above the floor within a perimeter of the perimeter wall, the fountain basin including at least one fountain opening and at least one drainage opening, the fountain basin configured to be connected to a pressurized water source such that water from the pressurized water source flows from the fountain opening of the fountain basin.

A combination of a first separate and independent pool component and a second separate and independent pool component includes a first frame portion having a frame support component for the first pool component, and a second frame portion having a frame support component for the second pool component. The second frame portion is complementary with the first frame portion. A latch assembly has a first latch component and a second latch component. The first latch component is adapted to be removably coupled to the second latch component. The first latch component of the latch assembly is attached to the frame support component of the first frame portion of the first pool component, and the second latch component of the latch assembly is attached to the frame support component of the second frame portion of the second pool component. The first pool component and the second pool component are placed so that their complementary frame portions and the cooperating first and second latch components are aligned, and the first latch component of the latch assembly is operatively attached to the second latch component with which it is aligned.

A pool shell comprising a pool shell body including an angled feature, wherein the angled feature defines an open region on an underside of the pool shell body. The pool shell may further comprise an insert positioned in the open region for providing structural support to the angled feature. The pool shell may further comprise an overlaying member positioned over the open region such that the insert is positioned between the underside of the pool shell body and the overlaying member, wherein the overlaying member is a substantially flat material for defining an exterior ramp surface extending over the open region defined by the angled feature.

A manufacture includes a main basin having a floor and a perimeter wall and a fountain basin disposed above the floor within a perimeter of the perimeter wall, the fountain basin including at least one fountain opening and at least one drainage opening, the fountain basin configured to be connected to a pressurized water source such that water from the pressurized water source flows from the fountain opening of the fountain basin.
