Abstract: Systems and techniques to simply, easily and quickly attache and detach a speaker to a mounting location. A speaker bracket can provide a pivot point for the speaker that also serves as an audio signal connection point. The speaker bracket can be built in a robust fashion and can include a receptacle that is mounted on a surface, such as an indoor or outdoor wall, on the side of a pool or spa, or in any other suitable location. The speaker bracket can also include a support that can be attached and detached from the receptacle. When attached, the support rotates about the receptacle via a pivot point. A positioning mechanism can be included that allows the support to be removably fixed or locked into a desired position relative to the receptacle.

Abstract: Systems and techniques to increase storage space for added features in a spa using a modular spa design. A spa structure includes a compartment defining a location that receives a device to be used in conjunction with a spa, and a surface coupled with the compartment and matching a shape of a skirt of the spa. The surface can form a section of the skirt of the spa when attached to the spa. The skirt section can be attached to the spa by being raised under a lip of the spa and can be secured with battens and screws. The skirt section can form exterior steps providing access to the spa and can have a sinusoidal shape. The skirt section can include an integrated lifting mechanism that serves as a support when in a nested position.

Abstract: Systems and techniques to facilitate lifting and access to compartments, such as spa compartments that contain spa features. A structure includes a base, risers rotatably coupled with an underside of the base, a support frame rotatably coupled with the risers, rollers rotatably coupled with the support frame, and one or more lever-arms rotatably coupled with at least one of the risers, the one or more lever-arms supporting the base when the support frame is in a nested position, and the one or more lever-arms providing leverage during transition from the nested position to an actuated position of the support frame, said transition causing the base to lower and be movable on the rollers.
