[0020] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of this utility model.
[0021] Example 1
[0022] Existing self-rotating dry fountains generate a spiral water curtain through rotating nozzles. During installation, firstly, the water pump still needs to be fixed at the bottom of the pool, and the water path is connected to the rotating nozzle through a long hose, which increases water resistance and reduces the spray height by more than 30%. The hose is also prone to fatigue and leakage as it rotates with the nozzle. Secondly, the simple cantilever support cannot counteract the rotational torque, causing system vibration and positioning misalignment. Thirdly, replacing the water pump still requires emptying the pool, making it impossible to quickly disassemble and repair the core components.
[0023] Reference Figure 1As illustrated above, this embodiment proposes a fully integrated suspended self-rotating dry fountain that can simultaneously completely avoid openings in the pool bottom, integrate the water pump, rotation drive, and fluid passage into a single suspended module, and achieve separate maintenance of the rotation system and water pump.
[0024] Specifically, the suspended self-rotating dry fountain includes a panel 100, a nozzle 200, a self-rotating assembly 300, a water pump 400, and a support assembly 500. The nozzle 200 is located below the panel 100 and rotates. The self-rotating assembly 300 is connected to the lower part of the nozzle 200 and is used to drive the rotation of the nozzle 200. The water pump 400 is connected to the lower part of the self-rotating assembly 300. The support assembly 500 is suspended at the bottom of the panel 100.
[0025] The self-rotating assembly 300 is connected to and supported by the support component 500. The nozzle 200, the self-rotating assembly 300, and the water pump 400 are integrated and suspended below the panel 100, which is suspended on the dry spray plate.
[0026] It should be noted that the rotation of the nozzle 200 located under the panel 100 is a horizontal rotation. By rotating the nozzle, a spiral water curtain can be generated. The core of this embodiment is an integrated suspension structure. When considering technical issues, one should not deviate from the core intent of this embodiment. For example, how the fountain sprays water, how the pump works to control the water spray, how the rotating water curtain is formed, how the motor controls the rotation, the internal structure of the nozzle, and the wiring inside the fountain are all existing and very mature technologies. Those skilled in the art can fully implement them by referring to existing technologies. At the same time, issues similar to the above are non-essential technical features, so they will not be described in detail.
[0027] Reference Figure 2 As illustrated, to achieve integrated support for the nozzle 200, the self-rotating assembly 300, and the water pump 400, in one embodiment, the support assembly 500 includes a support rod 501 and a base plate 502; wherein the support rod 501 is connected to the bottom of the panel 100, the base plate 502 is fixed below the support rod 501, and the bottom of the self-rotating assembly 300 is supported on the upper surface of the base plate 502.
[0028] To enhance the strength of the support, a reinforcing plate 503 is connected to the support rod 501 at the top of the self-rotating assembly 300 for support.
[0029] Reference Figure 3-4 As illustrated, in one embodiment, the nozzle 200 is connected to a rotating shaft 301, which is a hollow structure capable of rotating on a horizontal plane. The rotating shaft 301 serves not only to connect the water supply pipe but also to drive the rotation of the nozzle 200. Furthermore, the nozzle 200 and the rotating shaft 301 are connected via a connector 302.
[0030] Furthermore, the self-rotating assembly 300 includes a motor 304, which transmits power to the rotating shaft 301 via an output shaft 305 to drive its rotation. It should be noted that the rotation of the output shaft 305 is a vertical rotation. The vertical rotation of the output shaft 305 is transmitted to the horizontal rotation of the rotating shaft 301 through an internal transmission gear, which is a mature existing technology. Therefore, the specific internal structure will not be described in detail.
[0031] Reference Figure 5 As illustrated, to enable separate maintenance of the rotating system and the water pump, in one embodiment, the rotating assembly 300 and the water pump 400 are connected by a detachable pipe 600. Specifically, the detachable pipe 600 includes an upper pipe 601 and a lower pipe 602; wherein the upper pipe 601 is connected to the bottom of the rotating assembly 300, and the lower pipe 602 is connected to the top of the water pump 400.
[0032] In this embodiment, the upper pipe 601 and the lower pipe 602 are fastened or loosened by a clamp 603. The top of the upper pipe 601 is connected to the water inlet 303.
[0033] Specifically, regarding the overall structure, this embodiment of the dry fountain adopts a vertical integrated suspension design. The panel 100 serves as the top-level supporting base and is fixed below the dry fountain plate. The support component 500 extends downward from the bottom of the panel 100. The nozzle 200, the self-rotating assembly 300, and the water pump 400 are connected and suspended from top to bottom on the support component 500, forming a compact modular unit that completely avoids openings at the bottom of the pool.
[0034] Regarding the connection relationships and functional details of each component, the function of the panel 100 and the support assembly 500 is to provide an overall suspension fulcrum for the panel 100, and the support assembly 500 to transfer loads and stabilize the equipment.
[0035] Furthermore, the support assembly 500 includes a support rod 501 and a base plate 502. The top of the support rod 501 is bolted to the bottom of the panel 100, and the bottom is bolted to the base plate 502, which bears the weight of the rotation assembly 300 and the components below it. A reinforcing plate 503 is bolted to the support rod 501 and connected to the top of the rotation assembly 300, forming a triangular support reinforcement structure to suppress operational vibration.
[0036] In this embodiment, the connection between the support rod 501, the base plate 502, the reinforcing plate 503 and the self-rotating assembly 300 can be achieved by welding, fixing with bolts or waterproof strong adhesive, etc. In this embodiment, bolt fixing is preferred.
[0037] Furthermore, the self-rotating assembly 300 integrates dual functions, with its core function being to synchronously drive the nozzle to rotate and deliver water flow. Specifically, the rotating shaft 301 is a hollow metal tube, with its top connected to the nozzle 200 via a connector 302, and its bottom connected to the water inlet 303 via a shaft connection, meaning the water inlet 303 does not rotate. The motor 304 is fixed inside the housing of the self-rotating assembly 300, and its output shaft 305 drives the horizontal rotation of the rotating shaft 301 via a gear set. The bottom of the self-rotating assembly 300 is bolted to the upper surface of the base plate 502, and the top is further supported by a reinforcing plate 503.
[0038] In one embodiment, the detachable pipe 600 connects the self-rotating assembly 300 and the water pump 400. The upper pipe 601 can be connected to the water inlet 303 via a flange or threaded connection. The lower pipe 602 is inserted into the water outlet of the water pump 400 in the same way. The clamp 603 locks the two pipes together. A rubber sealing ring can be installed inside the clamp, and the external bolts can be used to quickly tighten or loosen the pipes.
[0039] In this embodiment, the nozzle 200 has a dynamic seal. The bottom of the nozzle 200 is connected to the rotating shaft 301 through a rotary joint 302. Two O-rings can be provided inside to ensure no leakage during rotation.
[0040] The functional operation process and relationships in this embodiment are as follows:
[0041] The power transmission chain is as follows: the motor 304 starts, the output shaft 305 drives the gear set, the rotating shaft 301 rotates horizontally, and the nozzle 200 rotates synchronously.
[0042] The water circulation system consists of: a water pump 400 for pumping water, a lower pipe 602, a clamp 603, an upper pipe 601, a water inlet 303, a hollow rotating shaft 301, and a nozzle 200 for spraying water.
[0043] The force transmission path is: equipment gravity, water pump 400, base plate 502, support rod 501, and panel 100. The rotational torque transmission is through the self-rotating assembly 300, reinforcing plate 503, and support rod 501, which can counteract eccentric loads.
[0044] The process is as follows:
[0045] Start-up phase: Water pump 400 is powered on, and water flows through detachable pipe 600 and is pumped into rotating shaft 301; motor 304 synchronously drives rotating shaft 301 to drive nozzle 200 to rotate horizontally.
[0046] Core operation: Water is delivered from the hollow rotating shaft 301 to the rotating nozzle 200, forming a spiral water curtain; the support rod 501 and the reinforcing plate 503 work together to suppress rotational vibration.
[0047] Maintenance process: After loosening the clamp 603, separate the disassembled pipe 600 and lower the water pump 400 vertically for maintenance; remove the bolts of the connector 302 and the nozzle 200 can be removed separately for cleaning; remove the fixing bolts of the base plate 502 and the self-rotating assembly 300 can be removed as a whole for maintenance of the motor.
[0048] In this embodiment, all components are suspended above the dry spray plate via panel 100, protecting the structural integrity of the pool and achieving zero bottom opening. Clamp 603 allows for the disassembly and maintenance of water pump 400. The modular design supports independent maintenance of nozzle 200, rotation assembly 300, and water pump 400; support rod 501, base plate 502, and reinforcing plate 503 form a rigid hoisting frame, eliminating rotational vibration; rotating shaft 301 integrates power and fluid pathways, avoiding the risk of hose kinking. Nozzle 200, rotation assembly 300, and water pump 400 are integrated and suspended below panel 100 via support assembly 500, forming a vertically integrated suspension structure that constitutes a closed functional module.
[0049] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description and ideas. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively describe all implementation methods here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the technical solution of this utility model should be covered within the scope of protection of the claims of this utility model.
