US Patent 11955806 Inductive power couplings for pool and spa equipment

A swivel component allows a power cable to a pool or spa component, to swivel when the inductive power couplings are coupled. The couplings include a first inductive coupling that can be positioned within and/or mounted into a wall fitting, a second inductive coupling that inductively couples with the first inductive coupling, a swivel component attached to the second inductive coupling for allowing the second coupling to swivel with respect to the first inductive coupling, and a retainer ring that engages with the wall fitting and retains the first and second couplings and the swivel component in position within the wall fitting. A power cable is connected at one end to the second inductive power coupling and at an opposite end to a pool or spa component, such as an electric cleaner. Swiveling of the second power coupling relative to the first power coupling reduces kinking of the power cable.
