Abstract: An automated swimming pool cleaner has a housing having an inlet formed on a bottom surface thereof. A drive mechanism is located within the housing. A first rolling mechanism is coupled to a bottom section of the housing. A second rolling mechanism is coupled to the bottom section of the housing. A third rolling mechanism is coupled to the bottom section of the housing between the first rolling mechanism and the second rolling mechanism. The third rolling mechanism extends lower from the housing than the first rolling mechanism and the second rolling mechanism allowing the automated swimming pool cleaner to pivot about the third rolling mechanism. The drive mechanism rotates at least one of the first rolling mechanism, the second rolling mechanism, or the third rolling mechanism.

Abstract: A floating power supply for a body of water has a flotation unit. A power supply circuit housed within the flotation unit, wherein the power supply circuit provides power to a device within the body of water while untethered to a power source external of the body of water.

Abstract: A cleaning structure is attachable to a submersible pool cleaning vehicle (PCV). In one exemplary embodiment the PCV has an endless loop track and a chassis therefore. The cleaning structure attaches to the chassis and acts as a cap covering the drive wheels and track. The cleaning structure includes a base and bristles extending outwardly therefrom. The bristles define fingers. In one embodiment, the fingers are of a uniform length. In another embodiment, the fingers are of a graduated length. Others embodiments include the fingers being distributed on the base in a random pattern.

Abstract: A pool cleaner having a coarse filter and a fine filter. The coarse filter removes large pieces of debris. The fine filter removes fine particles from the water. In an embodiment, the fine filter is a filter bag made from a cloth material. In an embodiment, the coarse filter is a mesh grating with small holes. In an embodiment, the fine filter is supported by a rigid mesh placed downstream from the coarse filter.

Abstract: A floating illumination device for a water feature has a housing having a sub-housing extending down from a bottom section of the housing. A lighting circuit is held by the sub-housing. A plurality of illuminating elements of the lighting circuit is attached to an outer perimeter of the sub-housing. A cover is positioned over the sub-housing forming a watertight seal.

Abstract: A pool cleaner having an intake opening at the bottom of the body and two rollers on either side of the intake opening on which the pool cleaner rests and traverse the pool floor. In an embodiment, the rollers define a cleaning path with maximum water flow through the intake opening into the pool cleaner caused by hydraulic forces as a result of at least one pump being turned on. In an embodiment, pool cleaner is unstable when moving on the rollers. In an embodiment, wheels are placed at corners of the pool cleaner and raised above the floor, allowing a rocking motion and easy turns of pool cleaner.

Abstract: An automated swimming pool cleaner has a housing having an inlet formed on a bottom surface thereof. At least one slot is formed in a bottom side surface of the housing. A flap is provided and is in fluid communication with the slot. A wheel is coupled to the flap. The wheel keeps a bottom surface of the flap a minimum distance above a floor/wall of a swimming pool.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a pool light assembly including cooling for the illuminating structure. The assembly includes a water inlet housing having a portion on the dry side and a portion immersed in the pool water. An assembly having sealing structure creates a leak proof connection with the pool wall. The submerged portion of the assembly includes a base. The base has an exterior exposed to the pool water and an enclosed interior including the illuminating structure. A notch is provided in the exterior of the base and extends into the interior for allowing pool water in the proximity of the illuminating structure. The assembly includes sealing structure for preventing water from entering electrically active elements, while allowing pool water to act as a cooling element. A retaining member locks and encourages waterproof sealing of the electrically active elements. Each of the elements is provided with structure as necessary to facilitate the free flow of water through the housing.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a floating pool water controller for dispensing germicide and antimicrobial material into a swimming pool based upon real time pool conditions. The controller includes the ability to adjust to these ever changing conditions in real time, and, to do so remotely. The controller includes a housing adapted for floating on the pool water. Additionally, a dispenser is provided for dispensing Cu ion into the pool and includes a dispenser assembly connected to the housing. The controller is provided with a controller for adjusting the amount of Cu ion dispensed into the pool water. And, the controller includes a probe extending from the housing into the pool water for sensing pool conditions. Thus, upon sensing the pool conditions in real time, the controller can be adjusted to dispense the proper amount of Cu ion into the pool water.

Abstract: The present invention is applicable to the technical field of wheels. Provided are a wheel (100) and a vehicle comprising the same. The wheel (100) comprises a wheel hub (10) and a wheel housing (20 , said wheel hub (10) being mounted on a wheel axle, and a tire being mounted outside said wheel housing (20). Said wheel (100) further comprises a plurality of spring strips (40), each of said spring strips (40) comprising a loop (41), each of said loops (41) comprising a top end and a bottom end; the top end of said loop (41) is connected to the outer wall of said wheel hub (10), and the bottom end of said loop (41) is connected to the inner wall (21) of said wheel housing (20); each of said spring strips (40) comprises at least two free ends (42) that are cross-linked with each other, a first slot (411) is provided on one of said at least two free ends (42), and a portion of the other free end is set as a narrow strip which is inserted into said first slot (411).
