ABSTRACT:
A therapy apparatus to be mounted in a pool of water for generating a laminar flow of water at a rate sufficient for exercising and therapy purposes. A housing is secured externally to a swimming pool, the water inlet and outlet being disposed within the pool of water and being supported by the external housing. The water inlet is located below the surface of the swimming pool, water being forced through the inlet and upwardly by a rotating impeller to the outlet. The water outlet is below the water surface and directs the flow of water substantially parallel to the surface of the swimming pool and at an angle of approximately 90 degrees of arc with respect to the flow at the impeller. Sets of radial, elbow and outlet diffusers are mounted within the water flow chamber to create a laminar flow of water at the output and substantially eliminate all unwanted turbulance.
