ABSTRACT:
A rotating nozzle for use in whirlpools, spas, baths, pools and the like is disclosed wherein a nozzle comprising a rotating head and integral cylindrical pipe-shaped inlet is mounted directly within a mounting bracket using a ball bearing assembly. Inner and outer ball bearing races on the nozzle inlet and mounting bracket respectively journal the nozzle in the mounting bracket, and the outlets of the nozzle are aligned to dispel water in a manner to impart rotation on the nozzle. The inner and outer races house a set of ball bearings, and a spacer which maintains adequate separation of the ball bearings. The unitary design of the present invention is simpler than the prior art and requires fewer parts, and the reduction in frictional losses translates into a faster rotation and increased massage effect.
