ABSTRACT:
A spa cover lift frame is described for a spa cover which is formed of two halves and joined along a central hinge and rests against the top of a spa having upright left and right spa side walls and an end wall leading downwardly from the spa top. The preferred lift frame includes left and right mounting brackets configured to be mounted to the respective left and right spa side walls adjacent the end wall. Each of the left and right mounting brackets are preferably comprised of an elongated bracket flange configured to be mounted flush against a side wall of the spa with the second end adjacent the spa end wall. Pivots are situated on the mounting brackets, as are pivot stops. A "U" shaped reinforced carrier, including opposed substantially parallel support arm members and a cross member extending between the support arm members, is mounted to the brackets for pivotal motion about a lift axis. The left and right mounting brackets and the carrier are configured to be mounted on the spa side walls with the carrier pivotable on the lift axis between a down position wherein the cross member is positioned against the spa cover adjacent the hinge such that the spa cover may be folded over the cross member, and a raised position wherein the folded spa cover is supported on the cross member and is substantially upright and adjacent to the spa end wall.
