Abstract

A tank discharge water attraction including a tank made in different shapes and sizes out of one or more of transparent, translucent or opaque materials. When a valve in the tank is triggered, water is discharged upon participants through a water pattern forming system which causes the water to be discharged in one or more specific patterns.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A tank discharge water attraction comprising
 (a) a tank constructed from at least one of a transparent, translucent, or opaque material;   (b) a fill pipe through which the tank may be filled with water;   (c) a valve triggered by at least one of an electric current or a mechanical means at at least one of a selected, random, or participant determined time, said valve causing the water to be discharged from the tank; and   (d) a pattern forming system configured to form the discharged water into a pattern.   
     
     
         2 . The tank discharge attraction of  claim 1  wherein the pattern forming system comprises a plate and a dish configured to form the water discharge into a selected pattern. 
     
     
         3 . The tank discharge water attraction of  claim 2  wherein the plate has slots positioned around the plate so as to discharge the water in a pattern determined by the placement of the slots around the plates. 
     
     
         4 . The tank discharge water attraction of  claim 3  wherein the plate is rotated during the water discharge. 
     
     
         5 . The tank discharge water attraction of  claim 2  wherein the slots in the plate have the shape of at least one of a circle, a square, a rectangle, a crescent, or a triangle. 
     
     
         6 . The tank discharge attraction of  claim 1  wherein the pattern forming system includes an air ram to discharge water into a dish, the ram also opening a valve flapper. 
     
     
         7 . The tank discharge attraction of  claim 1  wherein the pattern forming system has multiple ports through with the water is discharged. 
     
     
         8 . The tank discharge attraction of  claim 7  wherein the multiple ports are opened when the water reaches a predetermined level in the tank. 
     
     
         9 . The tank discharge attraction of  claim 7  wherein the water is discharged from the multiple ports in to a dish. 
     
     
         10 . The tank discharge attraction of  claim 1  wherein the pattern forming system includes a pan configured to direct the discharged water in at least two directions. 
     
     
         11 . The discharge attraction of  claim 1  wherein the pattern forming system includes a trough to direct the discharged water into a single direction. 
     
     
         12 . The tank discharge attraction of  claim 1  wherein the pattern forming system includes at least one pin connected to a dish, the pin diverting the discharged water from portions of the dish to create a water pattern. 
     
     
         13 . The tank discharge attraction of  claim 1  wherein the pattern forming system includes two plates sealed together and forming a cavity between the plates, the water being discharged through openings around the circumference of the sealed plates. 
     
     
         14 . The tank discharge attraction of  claim 1  further including a hose that drains water from the tank on to a water wheel, the water wheel rotating until it triggers a warning bell signaling the discharge of water from the tank. 
     
     
         15 . The tank discharge water attraction of  claim 1  wherein a participant triggers the discharge of the water from the tank in competition with other participants as to which participant can trigger the discharge other participant.
