Abstract:
A whirlpool jet assembly comprising;a Venturi housing having a water inlet and an air inlet for generating a stream of mixed water and air through an aperture in the wall of a water-holding enclosure; a non-rotatable nozzle tube and eyeball positioned concentrically within said housing and in fluid communication with said water inlet and said air inlet for directing said stream through said nozzle tube through said aperture in a direction determined by the orientation of said eyeball; a rotary assembly engaging said nozzle tube in releasable manner for selective conversion of said whirlpool jet assembly between a rotary configuration and a directable stationary configuration, said rotary assembly in said rotary configuration concentrically engaging said nozzle tube and having a plurality of canted apertures for passing said stream and generating rotational spin in said rotary assembly for spraying water and air over a circular pattern, said rotary assembly in said directable stationary configuration being removed from said nozzle tube.
