Benefits of technology

The patent text describes a cover for a swimming pool pump motor that keeps it dry and free from rust. This cover improves the efficiency and lifespan of the motor, reducing operating costs and energy usage. The technical effects of this invention are to protect the pump motor and increase its performance.

Problems solved by technology

Uncovered swimming pool pump motors fail prematurely due to sun, rain, lawn sprinklers and morning dew.
As motors deteriorate energy consumption rises and motor replacements are expensive.

Embodiment Construction

[0010]Pool Pump Motor covers presently on the market does not provide adequate protection from the elements, thereby causing swimming pool pump motors to rust prematurely. My pool pump motor cover (s) have unique features that other pool pump covers do not have. Each cover is made of durable PVC with no exposed seams. The white cover reflects the sunrays and the attached top provides rain / water runoff. Front and rear openings provide generous airflow. These features provide the extra protection that reduces and / or eliminates rust, which is the prime source of motor failure. See my covers described as M-1 and M-1A in the drawings on pages 1-5 thru 5-5

[0011]Material Data

[0012]The Cover and Optional Base are made of Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) construction. Cover is secured to optional base.

Description

CROSS—REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS—PROVISIONAL APPLICATION NUMBER 61 / 621,367FEDERALLY SPONSORED RESEARCH—NOT APPLICABLESEQUENCE LISTING OR PROGRAM—NOT APPLICABLEFIELD OF INVENTION[0001]The invention relates to pool pump motor covers, more specifically to swimming pool pump motor covers.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]New energy efficient legislation mandated by the State of Florida and other states requires the single speed main circulation pump motors be replaced with two speed or variable speed motors when they fail. Two speed or variable speed motors will be required for new swimming pool construction. This is a large investment for existing and new swimming pool owners. Uncovered swimming pool pump motors fail prematurely due to sun, rain, lawn sprinklers and morning dew. As motors deteriorate energy consumption rises and motor replacements are expensive. Covering your motor protects your investment and preserves your motors efficiency. My motor cover protects all sides an...
