Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to water fountain structures, and more specifically relate to modular fountain structures that include an adjustment bezel for changing a flow of water via an adjustable valve housed within them fountain structure. Adjustments to the valve to adjust the flow of water are effected by accessing the valve at the site of the fountain structure. The adjustment bezel or other manipulable device is incorporated with each fountain structure to provide control for flow of water emitted from the fountain, as the adjustment bezel is accessible without removal and/or disassembly of the fountain structure.

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to water effect play structures for use in playgrounds, splash pads, and water parks. The play structures comprise a plurality of water tanks maintained at an elevation above a play surface. Each of the plurality of water tanks fills with water and then releases the water contained therein, splashing children in the vicinity. Each of the plurality of water tanks may be configured to release the water contained therein at different times. Further, in some embodiments, the water tanks may be enclosed, such as by being connected to a water transport system that fills the tanks internally and by having a movable cover over the opening(s) through which the water is released.

A nozzle positioning assembly includes a first support shaft, a second support shaft, a first position adjustment assembly, a second position adjustment assembly, and a hub. The first and second support shafts have respective bodies with a center aperture, a spherical first end, and a second end opposite the spherical first end. The first and second position adjustment assembly include first and second link mounting ears positioned circumferentially from one another. The first position adjustment assembly is adapted to be affixed to the second end of the first support shaft and the second position adjustment assembly is adapted to be affixed to the second end of the second support shaft. The hub has a first end configured to receive and rotatably retain the spherical first end of the first support shaft, and a second end configured to receive and rotatably retain the spherical first end of the second support shaft.
