  • Universal motor mount and cap
    Patent number: 9822542
    Abstract: A universal device for capping and mounting a motor within a motorized pool cleaner housing that allows a moto pump to be installed in different brands of pool cleaners. The universal device has a base and a central through opening. At least two sets of posts extend substantially perpendicular from a surface of the base, each post is adapted to engage the housing of the pool cleaner. The first set of posts extend adjacent an edge of the base to define a first footprint. The second set of posts extend adjacent the first set of posts defining a second footprint smaller than the first footprint.
