  • Patent number: 11035139
    Abstract: An above ground pool assembly comprises a bracket and a pool body. The bracket includes a plurality of horizontal and vertical support members. The horizontal support members couple to one another forming an upper frame. The plurality of vertical support members couple to the upper frame. The pool body has a side wall, wherein a top of the side wall is provided with a plurality of sleeves. The sleeves attach to the plurality of horizontal support members. Each horizontal support member has an outer surface with an uneven texture. The uneven texture reduces the contact areas between the pool body and the horizontal support members and avoids adhesion between the pool body and the horizontal support members, so that the pool body and the bracket can be separated easily, thereby reducing the possibility of damaging the pool body. Moreover, the wear resistance and slip resistance of the bracket are improved.
