This disclosure relates to a sanitary fitting for dispensing prepared liquids, for example, for beverages. A disclosed system includes a first control element for setting a quantity of the prepared liquid to be dispensed and an actuating element for providing the quantity of prepared liquid set by means of the first control element, wherein at least one second control element is configured to select a type of preparation, for example, from at least two different types of preparation, of non-prepared liquid, wherein the first and the at least one second control element are actuatable independently of one another.

A filtration apparatus includes a flow path, a valve provided on the flow path, a first light source configured to emit a first light including ultraviolet (UV) light toward the flow path, a second light source configured to emit a second light including visible light or infrared light toward the flow path, a first optical sensor located out of a path of the first light and the second light, electrodes provided on the flow path, and a processor electrically coupled to the valve, the first light source, the second light source, the first optical sensor, and the electrodes. The processor is configured to alternately operate the first light source and the second light source, receive a first signal from the first optical sensor while the first light source emits the first light, and control the valve and the electrodes to sterilize the flow path based on the first signal.

Disclosed is a shower head and receptacle combination device with an outlet water filtering function, wherein by arranging a filter valve shell arranged in a device shell and mounting a filter element and a switching valve element in the filter valve shell, water flow can be filtered, and then filtered water is sprayed from a handheld shower head and/or an overhead shower head for a user to take a shower. The shower head and receptacle combination device has the advantages of good filtering effect, high water outlet pressure, small size and low cost.

A domestic water tap (1000) is disclosed. The present application relates to a tap and an inner body for routing liquid within a tap, for example, a domestic water tap or faucet. The domestic water tap (1000) comprises an outer body (1010, 1012) and an inner body (100). The inner body (100) is housed within the outer body (1010, 1012). The outer body (1010, 1012) comprises at least one flow channel (1020, 1022) in which water can flow through the tap (1000) without contacting the outer body (1010, 1012). The inner body (100) is made from plastics and comprises at least one non-threaded bore for securely receiving a connector for delivering water from a source into the inner body (100).

A shower assembly comprising a shower head; and a manifold configured to removably receive a water filter assembly; wherein the manifold comprises a bore having an outward-facing open end to receive the water filter assembly, wherein the manifold is downstream of and in fluid communication with a water source, and is upstream of and in fluid communication with the shower head.

The invention relates to a flow separation device (100), which may be provided in a beverage preparation device (1). The flow separation device (100) in particular effects an easier separation (redirection) of a flow. The flow separation device (100) comprises a first delivery line (30) to drain water from a buffer tank (2), a branching section (29) provided downstream the first delivery line (30), wherein the branching section (29) branches the first delivery line (30) into a second delivery line (28) and a third delivery line (23), each of the second and third delivery line (28, 23) leading to a respective discharge outlet (22; 24), and a flow rate control device (26) for delivering water through the flow separation device (100) and for adjusting the flow rate of the water. Each of the second delivery line (28) and third delivery line (23) comprises a respective section (281; 231), wherein said sections (281, 231) are arranged such that if water is delivered by the flow rate control device (26) at a flow rate below a defined threshold value the water is delivered beyond the section (281) of the second delivery line (28) but not beyond the section (231) of the third delivery line (23), thereby discharging the water via the discharge outlet (22) of the second delivery line (28), and if water is delivered by the flow rate control device (26) at a flow rate at or above the defined threshold value the water is at least partially delivered beyond the section (231) of the third delivery line (23), thereby discharging the water at least partially via the discharge outlet (24) of the third delivery line (23).

The present disclosure discloses a liquid supply device, a system, and a cleaning method for an electronic toilet. The liquid supply device includes a detergent storage box, a piston assembly, and a driving mechanism. The detergent storage box includes a detergent space for containing a detergent and a piston space for containing the piston assembly. The water inlet end is provided with a water inlet end check valve. The detergent saturated solution output end is provided with an output end check valve. The piston assembly is internally provided with a piston rod driven by the driving mechanism to reciprocate in the piston space. The reciprocating movement of the piston rod in the piston space controls the opening or closing of the water inlet end check valve and the output end check valve.

The present invention relates to a water distribution system with hygienisation capacity. According to a first aspect, the present invention describes a water distribution system (I) comprising a water supply, a heating source (IO0) or a point of inflow of externally heated water, at least one sensor measuring water quality, a flow path for water with a user outflow UO, and a control unit for operation of the water distribution system (1), said at least one sensor measuring water quality being connected to the control unit, wherein the water distribution system (I) comprises tubing in a tubing system where at least one portion of the tubing system in the water distribution system (1) comprises a tubing portion which is made of a plastic material comprising silver and/or zinc to provide an inner anti-biofilm of that tubing portion.

The invention relates to a sanitary fitting that is comfortable to use for outputting mains water and prepared water of at least one preparation type, in particular filtered and/or boiling and/or chilled and/or carbonated water, wherein at least one control unit is provided for controlling the respective water flow of the mains water and/or the prepared water, and an operating unit is provided for contactlessly influencing at least one of the water flows, in particular both water flows, and for generating and forwarding control signals to at least one of the control units.
