Abstract

See full text

A fountain for creating a vortex includes a base housing with a lower reservoir therein. A pump moves water from the lower reservoir into a cylindrical upper tank located on a support platform. Tubing connects the pump to an elbow fitting, which extends through an inflow hole in the support platform. The elbow fitting ejects water into the tank along the sidewall immediately adjacent to said elbow fitting so as to fill the tank with water and create the vortex. Water eventually drains through a drain hole in the center of the support platform and returns to the lower reservoir.
