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.

Systems and methods for firework water illusions are disclosed. In one aspect, a device for creating an illusion of rotary pyrotechnics includes at least one nozzle configured to rotate about an axis of the device and spray water in a radial direction while rotating. The device can also include a water supply configured to provide the water to the at least one nozzle and a lighting system configured to illuminate the water sprayed from the at least one nozzle to create an illusion of rotary pyrotechnics.

A light-emitting (LED) fountain light with a self-cleaning lens includes a light body with a central hole, a light housing surrounding the light body, a nozzle provided in the light housing and located in the central hole, a central hole pressing ring sleeved in the central hole, LED light beads arranged between the central hole pressing ring and the light housing and sealed by a sealant, a driving mechanism provided between the nozzle and the central hole pressing ring, a cleaning mechanism provided on a surface of the light body to scrape off algae and other dirt, and a transmission mechanism provided between the driving mechanism and the cleaning mechanism. In the LED fountain light, scrapers are rotated forward and backward once to effectively clean the algae and other dirt on the surface of the LED fountain light.

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.

A landscape beautification system includes a housing coupled to a riser pipe of a water irrigation system where the riser pipe extends upward from a ground surface. A skirt is disposed about the riser pipe and extends from the housing to the ground surface. A socket is coupled to a sprinkler head that is in fluid communication with the riser pipe.

A waterless fountain and a kit for converting a recirculating water fountain to a waterless fountain that improve performance and reduces maintenance requirements for fountains while maintaining or improving overall aesthetics. The waterless fountain includes a fountain body, a light diffuser, a plurality of light emitting diodes (LEDs) connected to the fountain body, and a system controller that uses and controls the plurality of LEDs and the light diffuser for producing a simulated flowing water display on at least a portion of the fountain body. The waterless fountain and kit provide a high degree of adaptability and versatility in a waterless fountain design while also providing an aesthetically pleasing visual and significantly reducing overall maintenance requirements as compared to a traditional recirculating water fountain.

A temperature measurable fountain lamp includes a housing, a temperature measuring device, a pump device, a lighting device, and a control motherboard. The housing is provided with an accommodating cavity and a water inlet opening, and the water inlet opening is used for allowing liquid to enter the accommodating cavity. The temperature measuring device includes a probe and a display electrically connected to the probe. The probe is positioned on a lower side of the housing. The display is positioned on the housing. The probe and one part of the housing are used for being placed into the liquid, so that the probe is capable of being used for measuring a temperature value of the liquid. The display is used for displaying the temperature value of the liquid. The pump device is installed in the accommodating cavity. The lighting device is installed inside the accommodating cavity.
