The present disclosure relates to a water sprayer and various features thereof. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to a water sprayer for use in a pool, and to a method for using the same. In various embodiments, the water sprayer may include a water output mechanism and a light source that is powered by flowing water to provide illumination functionality.

A laminar water feature is provided which includes a housing having a deck niche, a niche collar, a spacer ring, and a lid, a laminar vessel having an inlet, an annular pocket, a vertical baffle, a horizontal baffle, a light pipe, a plurality of screens, a cap having an outlet, and threading within an isolated light chamber for removably accepting a lighting source, and a pivot adjustment bracket having a handle with push button assembly, ridge, and detent configuration for fixedly rotatably adjusting the angle of the laminar vessel.

A solar landscape apparatus having a floating body, a support member, a solar panel, a battery and an electrical device is disclosed. The floating body is composed of a material with a density lower than that of water. The solar panel, the battery and the electrical device are respectively located on the floating body and the battery is electrically connected with the solar panel and the battery respectively. The support member is installed on the floating body and at least a part of the support member protrudes from a periphery of the floating body to prevent the floating body from leaning against a water edge. Through the part of the support member protruding from the periphery of the floating body, the floating body is kept at a preset distance from the water edge, thus effectively improving the landscape effect.

Provided is a portable decorative fountain, comprising: a) a body with one or more cavities for collection of water; b) a pump for pumping the water from the cavity in an upward direction; c) a conduit for carrying water that is pumped by the pump; and d) a speaker for playing sound; wherein the fountain can be operated with or without the speaker playing sound.

A water feature for generating an illuminated water image has a housing and an illumination unit fixedly arranged in the housing. A water channel passes through the housing. A nozzle insert is disposed in the water channel and is designed to create a water image. The nozzle insert is supported so as to be pivotable relative to the illumination unit. The nozzle insert is supported so as to be pivotable about a pivot point, wherein the pivot point is positioned at a same level with or below a light-emitting top side of the housing. An alignment and fixation tool is provided that has first contact elements designed to engage second contact elements of a securing element that secures the nozzle insert so that the securing element can be released or fixed by rotation of the tool.

A method for appreciating water balls using a water balls appreciation device, including a water balls discharge device and a light irradiation device, the method including: discharging the water balls, using the water balls discharge device, from tips of a plurality of nozzles, disposed at predetermined intervals in the lateral direction, by applying vibration to flowing water, the discharged water balls falling downwardly and in substantially a vertical plane; irradiating the water balls, using a light irradiation device, with light, the light irradiation device comprising a high-speed projector having a refresh rate of 300 Hz or more; and projecting a continuous screen of the projector in the water balls in the vertical plane regarded as a virtual screen by properly using a frame displaying a screen or an image and a frame not displaying a screen, so that a blinking duty is 20% or less, whereby the water balls are visually appreciated in the projected area. Then, by changing the timing of light emission for passing light through the image, it is possible to appreciate the movement of the water balls that changes in various manners.

Plastic grid or framework arrangements are used to support and position of bowls that hold flower arrangements, candles, letters, and other decorative elements. These grids are deployable in water fountains, indoor and outdoor pools, and other small bodies of water during festive occasions or for longer term decorative display. The grid themselves do not float, and are positioned below the surface of the water, and thus are not readily visible. Buoyancy is provided at the hubs that form nodes in the grids. The hubs also support floating bowls containing various decorative elements. The resulting effect is that the various decorative elements appear to be floating on the surface while the sub-surface grid structure maintains their relative positioning, keeping the bowls from clumping together at the edges or in the corners of the pool or fountain.

A water display including a number of pixels or manifolds that may include water nozzles to emit streams of water and/or other utilities such as lighting is described. The water streams may be pixelated so as to provide a high resolution waveform or other choreography. The choreography transitions between waveforms to provide the appearance of a cascading or undulating wave. A tool to design the water display and simulate its appearance is also described.
