US Patent:

20140064139, Mar 6, 2014

Filed:

Aug 31, 2012

Appl. No.:

13/600567

Inventors:

E. Keith Mcqueen - Vista CA, US
David Nibler - Vista CA, US
Dindo Uy - Hollywood CA, US
David Goldman - Carlsbad CA, US

International Classification:

H04W 84/12

US Classification:

370254

Abstract:

Systems and methods of (remotely) controlling aspects of pools and spas and of modifying water contained therein are detailed. Internet-enabled access to pool and spa controllers may happen without any need for users to create firewall ports or utilize static internet protocol addresses. Certain networking devices may be configured using a USB connection or SD card, avoiding any requirement for an Ethernet cable or supplying separate power to the devices during configuration. Other devices may be configured wirelessly, without need of any USB connection or SD card. Time-varying data may be obtained in respect of one or more installations and analyzed for various information.

Appl. No.:

16/968663

Inventors:

- Carlsbad CA, US
David Goldman - Carlsbad CA, US

Assignee:

Zodiac Pool Systems LLC - Carlsbad CA

International Classification:

E04H 4/12
F04D 15/02

Abstract:

Systems and techniques for guiding or advising users as to how to control motor speeds of pumping systems are detailed. The systems may solicit input from users and provide recommendations as to settings users may employ in connection with water-circulation systems of, principally, swimming pools and spas. The systems also may permit a user to retain control of both the duration the pool-filtration system will be active and the pump motor speed while providing suggestions to the user that may maximize efficiency of the system or minimize its power consumption (or both).

Zodiac Pool Systems LLC - Carlsbad CA

International Classification:

F21K 9/235
F21V 31/00
F21V 29/70

Abstract:

Lighting assemblies principally for swimming pools and/or spas are disclosed herein, as well as related methods. The assemblies may be used to retrofit incandescent luminaires with light emitting diodes (LEDs). No need exists to move (or remove) elongated power cords associated with the luminaires, nor to replace any Edison-style plugs of the luminaires.

International Classification:

H05K 5/02
H02G 3/08
A61H 33/00
E04H 4/12

Abstract:

Control boxes with segregated low- and high-voltage components are described. Service technicians (or others) requiring access to one set of components may do so without necessarily accessing the other set. Dual user interfaces may be utilized, further, with one interface being present at the control box and the other being remote therefrom.

International Classification:

F16K 31/60
E04H 4/12
F16K 31/05
F16K 31/04

Abstract:

Multi-position valve actuators principally for water-circulation systems of pools and spas are detailed. At least some actuators may indicate position of an associated valve in a non-electronic manner, as by using a handle visible externally of the actuator and directly or indirectly mechanically coupled to the valve so as to move therewith. Hence, even if power to an actuator is disrupted, positioning of the valve may be determined by viewing the handle.

Inventors:

- Carlsbad CA, US
David Goldman - Carlsbad CA, US

Assignee:

Zodiac Pool Systems LLC - Carlsbad CA

International Classification:

E04H 4/14

Abstract:

Lighting assemblies principally for swimming pools and spas may produce ultraviolet (UV) radiation (i.e. black light). They also may supply visible light if desired. The assemblies may be submerged within pools or spas or located externally thereof, and the light sources may be controlled either collectively or individually.

Inventors:

- Carlsbad CA, US
David Goldman - Carlsbad CA, US

Assignee:

ZODIAC POOL SYSTEMS LLC - Carlsbad CA

International Classification:

H05B 33/08

Abstract:

Described is a lighting system that includes a lighting device and a switching device. The switching device controls application of lighting power to the lighting device. Further, the lighting system includes an automation system that includes a non-transitory computer-readable medium having instructions stored thereon. The instructions are executable by a processing device to receive a lighting profile selection. Additionally, the instructions are executable to cycle the switching device to transmit a binary signal to the lighting device. The binary signal identifies the lighting profile selection and instructs the lighting device to emit a lighting profile identified by the binary signal.
