ABSTRACT:
The system includes a jet, a rotating member or "eyeball" and a diverter cap formed with a number of bore holes positioned at a common radius from the center of the cap. The jet produces a high pressure water jet that flows through the eyeball causing it to rotate at a high speed and discharge the jet in a circular pattern that impinges on the bore holes. The bore holes are formed in the diverter cap so that the upstream intersection of the bore holes forms a series of ridges that divert the rotating jet into the appropriate bore hole(s) without blocking the jet and producing a back flow and are aligned with the rotating eyeball to minimize pressure losses experienced by the jet. Together the rotation speed and bore hole design produce the sensation of a number of simultaneously pulsating water jets that are directed into the spa or tub. The system has the added advantage in that its design results in low pressure losses.
