  • Patent number: 8162234
    Abstract: A nozzle arrangement for generating a water jet has a nozzle plate having a nozzle opening. In order for the nozzle arrangement to be able to generate a water jet that provides improved utilization as a light guide also in bodies of water with wave motion and that is constructively simple and producible in an inexpensive way, it has a nozzle sleeve that surrounds the nozzle opening at least partially and is arranged on the nozzle plate and is provided with an inner sleeve wall surface that surrounds a water jet exiting from the nozzle opening at a safety spacing. The safety spacing prevents unwanted contact with the water jet.

  • Patent number: 7967471
    Abstract: A lighting unit for water fountains, ponds and the like, has a housing that is sealed at least relative to splashing water. A light source is arranged in the housing. A lens is arranged in the housing for alignment of light emitted by the light source. An additional lens unit is arranged in a light path of the light emitted by the light source for providing an additional alignment of the light emitted by the light source. A closure cap secures the additional lens unit by a self-centering action on the housing. The closure cap has an inner guide providing the self-centering action.

  • Patent number: 7945984
    Abstract: The invention relates to a cleaning rotor (1) having a longitudinal axis (L), a base part (5), which extends concentric to the longitudinal axis (L), a head part (3) and a strut element (9) that extends between the base part and the head part. Said strut element (9) extends in a helical manner about the longitudinal axis (L). The invention is characterized in that at least one supporting part (7) is placed between the base part (3) and the head part (3) while extending parallel to the longitudinal axis (L). The strut element (9) is supported on the supporting part (7) and is concave over its length.

  • Patent number: 7814926
    Abstract: A liquid aspirator, in particular for liquids containing solids such as sludge, has a receptacle into which liquid can be sucked in by an aspirator motor through a vacuum connector and from which the liquid can drain through a drainage. The receptacle has at least two separate receiving chambers and a control that controls that the receiving chambers are filled alternatingly with liquid while the receiving chambers that are not being filled are drained. The receiving chambers are sealable relative to the vacuum side of the aspirator motor by main valves that are preferably mechanically connected.

  • Patent number: 7686951
    Abstract: A vacuum skimmer for ponds, swimming pools or similar bodies of water has housing with an intake opening and a dirt collecting container arranged downstream for collecting coarse materials. The water to be purified is sucked in through the dirt collecting container by a pump arranged downstream. The intake opening is provided on one housing side. The vacuum skimmer is movable in such a way that the intake opening upon operation of the vacuum skimmer can orient itself in different directions. The vacuum skimmer has an aeration device by means of which air can be blown into the water.
