An above ground frame pool (10) includes a frame assembly (20) and a liner (40) supported by the frame assembly (20). The frame assembly (20) includes a plurality of horizontal pipes (22), a plurality of vertical pipes (24), and a plurality of T-shaped joints (30). The joints (30) may lack mechanical fasteners with adjacent pipes or corresponding apertures. The joints (30) may be one-piece or multi-piece structures. Such joints (30) maybe water-resistant and convenient to manufacture, assemble, disassemble, and store.

A frame pool is disclosed including a frame assembly and a pool liner, the frame assembly including horizontal frame members and a vertical frame member coupled together via a T-shaped joint. The T-shaped joint may be constructed of plastic to facilitate attachment and detachment to the adjacent frame members and to resist galling and corrosion. The T-shaped joint may also be relatively small to improve the appearance and water containment of the frame pool.

A frame pool includes a pool body having a space for containing liquid and a support frame for supporting the pool body. The pool body has an upper edge with a sleeve. The support frame includes an upper frame extending through the sleeve and a plurality of support members holding the upper frame in an elevated position. The upper frame includes first upper tubes, second upper tubes, and connecting tubes connecting the first upper tubes to the second upper tubes. Collars are provided within assembling ends of the first and second upper tubes. Each end of each of the connecting tubes is movably inserted into a collar located within an assembling end of a corresponding one of the upper tubes. Anti-rust coatings on the outer surfaces of the connecting tubes can be prevented from being worn and water can be sealed out of the tubes of the upper frame.

A liner for an above-ground frame pool is provided. The liner includes a bottom wall and a sidewall coupled to the bottom wall and defining a water cavity together with the bottom wall. The sidewall has a substantially cylindrical shape, and the sidewall includes a translucent portion facilitating viewing between the water cavity and an exterior of the above-ground frame pool. The translucent portion has a substantially semi-cylindrical shape.

A frame pool is disclosed including a frame assembly and a pool liner, the frame assembly including horizontal frame members and a vertical frame member coupled together via a T-shaped joint. The T-shaped joint may be constructed of plastic to facilitate attachment and detachment to the adjacent frame members and to resist galling and corrosion. The T-shaped joint may also be relatively small to improve the appearance and water containment of the frame pool.

A joint for a swimming pool frame, and a swimming pool including the joint are provided. The joint includes a joint body including a leg pipe holder configured to have a leg pipe of the swimming pool frame inserted into the leg pipe holder. The joint also includes a side pipe holder configured to have a side pipe of the swimming pool frame inserted in the side pipe holder. A locking hole is formed through the side pipe holder. The joint body also includes a locking part including a locking pin configured to extend through the locking hole and through a corresponding connecting hole in the side pipe, thereby holding the side pipe to the side pipe holder.

A frame assembly for a frame pool and a frame pool including a frame assembly are provided. The frame assembly includes a horizontal support, a vertical support, a T-joint, and a coupling assembly releasably connecting a corresponding one of the horizontal support or the vertical support to the T-joint. The coupling assembly includes a collar having a tubular body. In some embodiments, a guide extends outwardly from the tubular body, and a limiting member moves through the guide between a locked position and an unlocked position to selectively retain the corresponding one of the horizontal support or the vertical support to the T-joint. In some embodiments, the limiting member is integrally formed with the tubular body and movable between the unlocked and locked positions to selectively retain the corresponding one of the horizontal support or the vertical support to the T-joint.

An above ground frame pool (10) includes a frame assembly (20) and a liner (40) supported by the frame assembly (20). The frame assembly (20) includes a plurality of horizontal pipes (22), a plurality of vertical pipes (24), and a plurality of T-shaped joints (30). The joints (30) may lack mechanical fasteners with adjacent pipes or corresponding apertures. The joints (30) may be one-piece or multi-piece structures. Such joints (30) may be water-resistant and convenient to manufacture, assemble, disassemble, and store.

The present invention provides a sheathed frame pool, comprising a support frame composed of a plurality of interconnected support components; a pool liner comprising a pool bottom and a pool wall connected to an outer edge of the pool bottom and extends upward, an upper edge of said pool wall being hanging on said support frame and being disposed on an inside of said support frame, and at least one sheath disposed on a junction between at least two of said plurality of interconnected support components. The sheathed frame pool of the present invention has a simple structure, a low cost and convenient installation. Sheaths are respectively provided at the junction of a horizontal side pipe and a T-shaped pipe joint of the frame pool and the junction of a support pipe and the T-shaped pipe joint, which can effectively overcome the defect of rust generation on the pipe body caused by the susceptibility to wear of the coating at an outer surface of the horizontal edge pipe and the support pipe due to frequent frictions between the horizontal side pipe and the T-shaped pipe joint and between the support pipe and the T-shaped pipe joint during the installation or use of frame pools in the prior art.
