A compact, free-standing swimming pool (900) adapted for vigorous exercising by a harness-restrained swimmer; the pool including a surrounding gutter (903) behind a skimming sill (904) and in front of a ledge, so that most of the water splashed about is retained and so that waves are largely absorbed by falling over the sill and not returning. Baffles (917) placed deep within the pool can break up "slop" type waves. The gutter is emptied by drain pipes (916) leading to a pump (910) for recircula...

The invention relates to the presentation of a new construction of swimming goggles, comprising: two lens frame main bodies, each lens frame main body accommodating a lens, and, at two opposite ends of a longer side are a first joint and a second joint; at least one string that is sequentially pulled through the first and second joints of the aforementioned two lens frame main bodies, maintaining an appropriate separation between the two lens frame main bodies, and winding along the rims of the ...

A flotation device (1) having at least two generally elongate buoyant pontoons (2 and 3) joined by a bridging portion (5) of reduced thickness relative to the thickness of said pontoons.

A swimming flipper of the kind equipped with a blade, on which a shoe-shaped part (open or closed) is moulded, and the blade stretches itself towards the back so as to form a portion of the sole of the shoe-shaped part. Ribbings are obtained during the moulding phase of the shoe-shaped part with the same material as the shoe-shaped part, thus allowing the use of a relatively stiff material for the blade.

A peripheral wall of a lens member in swimming goggles is gradually thickened rearward from a front lens so that the peripheral wall has a height extending beyond a top of a flange of the lens member and a first groove extending along the flange is formed. A second groove of a cushion pad is engaged with an entire periphery of the flange so that the pad is exposed at an outer end (A) of the lens member.

Swimming goggles include a pair of lenses, a pair of lens frame members each supporting one of the lenses, a bridge belt by which respective inner edges of the lens frame members are connected to each other, and a head band extending between respective outer edges of the lens frame members. The lens frame members are provided adjacent their inner edges with coupling means adapted for releasably receiving stoppers formed on the bridge belt so that a distance between the inner edges can be adjuste...

A swimming apparatus consisting of a generally cylindrical main body which is hollow and in which the front portion and rear portion are constructed and positioned in a streamlined fashion. The interior of the hollow, generally cylindrical main body is divided into a plurality of water-tight air chambers by a plurality of partition walls integrally fixed to the interior sides of said body. A diamond shaped face plate is affixed to the front underside portion of said body and extends outwardly th...

A swimming device operable by a user. In one embodiment of the present invention, the swimming device includes a frame having a body portion and an elongated portion, wherein the body portion has a first surface and an opposite second surface, and a first end and an opposite second end, the first surface receiving the upper body of the user, and the elongated portion has a first end associated with the second end of the body portion and an opposite second end defining an axis therebetween, and a...

A pair of swimming goggles includes two lens frames, a nose bridge, two gasket units and a head strap, each of lens frame has at least one concave cavity which are disposed on a periphery of each lens frame and each of which the concave cavity has a opening is disposed toward a contact side of each lens frame, and each of gasket has a foam layer and a resilient layer in which the foam layer is attached to the periphery of the rear lens frame of each lens frame to provide seal up the concave cavi...

A pair of swimming goggles comprises a first and a second single-eye modules, each of which includes a lens frame that has lens units mounted thereon, a module nose bridge which is mounted on the side of the lens frame, a module strap which is mounted on opposition the module nose bridge, wherein the module nose bridge include at least a first connection set which is disposed on the lens frame, the first connection set have a first position portion and a nose body which can be connected to the f...
