DRAINAGE DEVICE FOR ABOVE-GROUND POOL AND ABOVE-GROUND POOL

摘要

A drainage device (20) for an above-ground pool (10), and an above-ground pool (10) including the drainage device are provided. The drainage device includes a drainage pipe (22), with inlet (222) and outlet ends (223), and a drainage valve connected to the inlet end of the drainage pipe. The drainage valve includes a water inlet periphery (222b), defining a water inlet in fluid communication with the inlet end of the drainage pipe, and a connecting member (224) disposed circumferentially around the water inlet periphery. The connecting member is radially spaced apart from the water inlet periphery. The connecting member may be formed by injection molding around the water inlet periphery.
