A fill valve system with a float nested in a container connected to the fill valve and a siphon device passing water out of the container into the toilet tank, with the siphon device having an air vent dimensioned such that: (i) tank refilling is delayed until after the flush valve closes; (ii) the fill valve is not turned on by small leaks in the tank; and (iii) the fill valve turns off when it encounters large leaks in the tank.

Provided are valve devices and flow heads for a valve device. A valve device can include a valve body (30) that opens and closes a valve hole (15a) to allow communication between a primary flow path (17a) and a secondary flow path (17b), a back pressure chamber (7) defined at the back side of the valve body, a small hole (51) that is provided in the valve body to allow the primary flow path of and the back pressure chamber to communicate with each other, and a pin (6) that has a straight portion inserted into the small hole to clean the small hole by relative motions of the small hole and the straight portion. A flow head (34) may be annular and include one or more notches along a perimeter and be configured to engage with an inner peripheral surface of an upper end portion of an inner barrel of the valve device.

A flush valve assembly for use in sanitaryware, such as a toilet or urinal. A flush valve assembly may have a flush valve body that is separate from a central seating body part. A central seating body part may be attached to a flush valve body with a mounting key. Once coupled, a flush valve body and central seating body part may be permanently connected. A flush valve assembly may also include a flush valve lever assembly. A flush valve lever assembly may include a bonnet nut for securing the flush valve lever assembly to a flush valve body. A flush valve lever assembly may include an actuator pin guide having a seal for sealing between the flush valve lever assembly and a flush valve body.

A sanitary valve (1) for use in a fitting (2), including a valve housing (3), a main valve (4) which has a movable diaphragm (5), and a pilot valve (6), by which the main valve (4) can be actuated. The position of the diaphragm (5) can be specified by the position of a valve tappet (7) of the pilot valve (6), and a tube securing element (9) which is paired with an inlet opening (8) of the valve housing (3) is formed on the valve housing (3) and/or a mouthpiece securing element (11) or a jet regulator securing element which is paired with an outlet opening (10) of the valve housing (3) is formed on the valve housing (3) and/or the sanitary valve (1) has a clamping device (12), by which the valve housing (3) and an adjustment device part (13) can be rigidly connected together or are rigidly connected together.

A flush valve has a relief valve including a stationary relief valve housing and an axially-translatable valve element. The axially-translatable valve element has an axial end that can be selectively translated to unseal an upper opening in a relief passageway through the stationary relief valve housing in order to permit fluid flow therethrough in order to initiate a flush cycle by the lifting of a diaphragm assembly. The axially-translatable valve element may include lead screw-like features which can be used to axially drive the axially-translatable valve element relative to the stationary relief valve housing to open or close the relief valve.

A pilot actuator for controlling the operation of a control valve. The control valve can be part of a thy-type fire suppression sprinkler system in which the sprinkler piping network is filled with pressurized gas such as, for example, air, nitrogen, or another gas. The pilot actuator is a differential valve that actuates the control valve when the gas pressure in the sprinkler piping network is at or below a value for tripping or actuating the pilot valve to the open position. The actuator assembly defines a neutral chamber that is at an intermediate pressure in comparison to pressures at the inlet port and the measuring port when the pilot actuator is in a stand-by state.
