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.

Modular pool comprising a support structure placed around a containment basin for the water and comprises a plurality of metal plates, joined together, which comprise a base for resting on the ground, an upright at least partially above ground, and lateral edges provided with a reinforcement flange. The pool also comprises fixing elements fixed to the base of the metal plates and anchored to the ground, a waterproofing layer placed to coat a bottom and a lateral surface of the containment basin, and a surface finish layer placed to cover the waterproofing layer.

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.

The invention is an assembly of prefabricated metal receptacles forming a swimming pool and a method for constructing the assembly. Among other features, the assembly is characterized by guided clamping structures that allow on-site construction without requiring on-site welding or access to the bottom or interior of the assembly.

A modular swimming pool with one or more swimming pool modules that each include a floor element, and a wall element connected to the floor element. The swimming pool modules by assembly define an internal pool space. The floor element and the wall element of a swimming pool module have reinforcement ribs and the reinforcement ribs of the wall element extend towards the floor element. The reinforcement ribs are spaced apart from each other and on the external surface form open chambers configured, when resting on a mounting surface, to be completely filled with a binder. The internal pool space in the area of the floor element has a wedge-like recess, forming a continuous duct area of the internal pool space, and the reinforcement ribs of the floor element are connected to an external surface of the recess, which faces away from the duct area, thereby restricting the open chambers.

A portable kiddie pool includes a main basin including a floor and a perimeter wall defining a perimeter of the pool, the floor including a radial groove that extends towards the perimeter of the pool, a fountain basin disposed above the floor within a perimeter of the perimeter wall, the fountain basin including at least one fountain opening, and tubing that extends at a first end from the perimeter of the pool through the radial groove of the floor to a second end that operably connects to the at least one fountain opening of the fountain basin, the tubing including a fitting configured to connect to a pressurized water source such that water from the pressurized water source flows from the pressurized water source through the tubing and to the fountain opening of the fountain basin.

A pool, preferably a plunge pool, that can be prefabricated and on site installed in a short space of time is provided. The pool is integrally formed, resulting in a unitary pool shell having a floor, one or more sidewalls connected to the floor, a surface, such as a step or bench, extending from at least one of the sidewalls; and a peripheral wall extending from the surface to the floor.

Speed reduction gear comprising two intermediate transmission lines, in particular for a turbine engine, comprising an input line (12) and an output line that is driven by the input line via said intermediate transmission lines, said intermediate transmission lines being substantially parallel, characterised in that said reduction gear comprises means for distributing loads between said intermediate lines, said load distribution means comprising swiveling coupling means (30) for rotatably coupling one end of the input line, and oil-damping means (40, 50) for damping radial movements of an opposite end of the input line.

A method of manufacturing a spa including molding a plurality of side walls, cutting utility openings in said side walls, thereby producing cutouts which are then secured to the side wall and cover at least a part of the utility opening. The cutouts may cover the same utility opening from which it stems or a different utility opening from the same side wall or different side wall. The side walls may be made integral to the basin, such as in rotomolded spas, or made separate from the basin. Certain cutouts are rotated so as to have a major dimension of the cutout cover a minor dimension of the utility opening. Certain cutouts are trimmed from their initial size so as to cover a utility opening smaller than the utility opening from which it stems.
