  • Patent number: 9517420
    Abstract: Disclosed is a deflector for a water dump apparatus positioned within a flow path of water discharged from a selectably dischargable container. The deflector comprises a deflector body having a top deflection surface thereon, a pivot mount for pivotally supporting the deflector body and an adjustor for selectably fixing the deflector plate at an orientation desired by a user. The deflector body may extend between first and second ends and be pivotally supported at the first end thereof. The deflector surface may be a planar concave or convex surface. The deflector body has an exterior edge which is substantially circular. The adjustor may comprise an actuator such as a hydraulic cylinder or a pin selectably engageable within one of a plurality of notches.

  • Publication number: 20070093306
    Abstract: A water flow control system and apparatus is disclosed. The system comprises a water distribution system configured to deliver water from a water source to a water amusement apparatus. At least one detector is coupled with the water distribution system to detect a change in the water being distributed from the water source to the water amusement apparatus. An effect generator is responsively coupled with the detector such that when the detector detects a change in the water, the effect generator produces at least one effect. The apparatus adaptable for use with a water distribution system comprises at least one detector configured to detect changes in water being distributed through the water distribution system and an effect generator responsively coupled with the detector such that when the detector detects a change in the water, the effect generator produces at least one effect.

  • Patent number: 5848957
    Abstract: An exercise device used to develop a user's torso and upper body muscles. The device has a tubular support frame with two upper side members connected by a lateral support and two space curved side supports. An adjustable pull down handle is centered on the frame's lateral support. Four resistance pneumatic cylinder with pistons, two on each side, connect the upper side members to a lower support structure. The curved supports extend downwardly from each of the upper side supports and have a head rest strap connector between them. A head rest with a back support extends from it is connected to a lateral strap member to a lateral strap in the lower support. A user lies down and grasps and pulls the overhead handle. By pulling down towards their chest on the handle against the resistance cylinder and their pistons, the user exercises torso and upper body muscles.
