Abstract: A motor-operable fluid valve for a pump includes a valve body defining an open central portion, at least one high pressure inlet port in fluid communication with the open central portion, a plurality of lower pressure inlet and/or outlet ports in fluid communication with the open central portion via an array of flow passages, and a valve rotor having a plurality of openings and movably disposed within the open central portion between the line of flow from the high pressure to the lower pressure ports. The valve rotor further includes a centrally mounted shaft operable to selectively connect inlet and outlet ports; said valve further comprising a rotational means on the shaft of the valve rotor and a drive gear cooperative with the rotational means and comprising a top face and a bottom face, the top face being sloped so as to form a cam such that when the drive gear is rotated the rotational means may be raised and lowered by the camming action.

Abstract: An outlet for use with spa pools or the like where water and air are mixed by a "Venturi Pump" to provide a water/air stream, the outlet having a direction control device for controlling the direction of the water/air stream, the "Venturi Pump" being located within the direction control device.

Abstract: A light fitting for underwater use is of reduced size and is structured to provide easy and ready replacement of the fitting lamp. The fitting includes a housing, a disc-shaped backing plate mounted to the housing and a lens sealingly connected to the backing plate and forming therewith an enclosed chamber. A gland housing is sealingly connected in the backing plate and forms an enclosed chamber opening. An electrical connector which supports the fitting lamp is dimensioned for passing through the gland housing and is connectable to electrical power for powering the lamp by a cable which also extends into the gland housing. A seal bushing surrounds the cable within the gland housing and provides a tight seal between the cable and gland housing when acted upon by a nut which also surrounds the cable and which threadingly engages the gland housing. Ready removal of the lamp for replacement is provided by removing the nut from the gland housing and pulling the cable and the lamp through the gland housing.
