Wave generator system with a lateral moving wave barrier for the generation of waves in two areas of water
Wave generator system (1), comprising a continuous and elongated barrier (4) that has a front side (4a) facing a first mass of water (2) fitted with a first reef (12) and a rear side (4b) facing a second mass of water (3) fitted with a second reef (15). The barrier (4) can move along the length (L) with a serpentine movement, and the front (4a) and rear sides (4b) push water from the masses of water (2, 3) towards the respective reefs (12, 15) for the formation of waves in the first mass of water (2) and in the second mass of water (3).
Surface Gravity Wave Generator and Wave Pool
A wave pool for generating surfable waves is disclosed. The wave pool includes a pool for containing water. The pool defines a channel having a first side wall, a second side wall, and a bottom with a contour that slopes upward from a deep area proximate the first side wall toward a sill defined by the second side wall. The wave pool further includes at least one foil at least partially submerged in the water near the side wall, and being adapted for movement by a moving mechanism in a direction along the side wall for generating a wave in the channel that forms a breaking wave on the sill. The wave pool further includes one or more passive flow control mechanisms to mitigate a mean flow of the water induced by the movement of the at least one foil in the direction along the side wall.

Dynamic artificial wave facility for the practice of surfing
A disclosed facility includes a wave generator, a support including an edge zone, a culminating zone, a progression zone sloping upwardly between the edge and culminating zones, a crest between the culminating zone and a depressed zone depressed relative to the crest, water situated over the edge and progression zones, forming part of an aquatic environment including horizontally contiguous upper and deep regions which are respectively higher than and lower than the edge zone, and an inner zone over the edge and progression zones and which is vertically contiguous with the upper region; the facility being configured such that the water at end of travel of the waves gets past the crest and falls into a reception volume delimited by the depressed zone when the generator is in use; and a fluidic communication below the support linking the deep region to an opening that is open to the reception volume.
Pedicure Sink, System and Method
The present application is directed to a portable sink that may be used as a pedicure sink usable alone or as part of a pedicure spa or other furniture. The pedicure sink includes a basin and a surface extending out from the basin that is operationally configured to support feet thereon and capture fluid and direct fluid into the basin.
Bath with hot and cold water zones
A bath receptor includes a water inlet, a first basin, a second basin, and a partition positioned between the first basin and the second basin. The water inlet is configured to supply water to the bath receptor. The first basin includes a first whirlpool system configured to direct water in a first direction within the first basin. The second basin includes a second whirlpool system configured to direct water in a second direction within the second basin. The second direction opposite the first direction. The partition is vertically provided along at least a portion of a height of the bath receptor.
