  • Patent number: 10801226
    Abstract: A combination pool hook and water tester for pool maintenance without needing to reach or bend to water level includes a pole, a hook, and a bottle receptacle. The pole is tubular and has a side wall forming an inside, a hook end and a bottle end each open to the inside, a plurality of air inlet apertures proximal the hook end, and a plurality of water inlet apertures proximal the bottle end. The hook is selectively engageable within the hook end and is configured to secure and remove a pool skimmer lid, a pool skimmer basket, and a pool sweep. The bottle receptacle is selectively engageable with the bottle end. The bottle receptacle has a threaded end configured to receive a water test collection bottle. The plurality of water inlet apertures takes in water to fill the water test collection bottle when submerged.

  • Patent number: 4442651
    Abstract: The invention refers to a procedure for laying the foundation of prefabricated plants (7) comprising such types as processing plants, industrial buildings, hospitals, hotels, etc., and for their removal, assembly and foundation building at the place of destination (10) ashore.Foundations (4) are made ashore or in a dry dock or on a barge, after which the processing plant is assembled. If the foundation is manufactured outside the barge (1), the plant (7) and/or foundation (4) can be moved to transport barges (1). Transport to the place of destination is carried out by means of sea-going transport barges (1). At the place of destination (9) the transport barges (1) are lowered onto an erection bed (2), and the plant (7) is launched over prefabricated sliding supports (5) from transport barge to the definitive erection site (10), which can advantageously be situated above the water level in the vicinity of the beach (9) or ashore.
