Fire protection sprinkler with a push-in connection

A sprinkler with a push-in connection includes a sprinkler frame, an operating element, and a sealing cap. The sprinkler also includes one or more sealing gaskets and a retainer. Each such sealing gasket is located at least partially within a groove in the sprinkler frame. The retainer is also at least partially located within a groove in the sprinkler frame. The retainer connects to an internal bore of an outlet of a fluid supply conduit when the sprinkler is installed in the outlet. The one or more gaskets seal against the internal bore of the outlet when the sprinkler is installed in the outlet. The retainer is a spring mechanism so that the diameter of the retainer is reduced when the sprinkler is inserted into the internal bore of the outlet, and the retainer maintains pressure against the outlet internal bore.

ADJUSTABLE SHOWER DEVICE
20190366356 · 2019-12-05 ·

An adjustable shower device includes a water diversion valve body, a water inlet pipe, and more than one water outlet pipe. The water diversion valve body has a water inlet and more than one water outlet. The water inlet pipe is fixedly connected to the water inlet of the water diversion valve body. An inlet end of the more than one water outlet pipe is connected to the more than one water outlet. Because the water outlet pipe is a universal pipe that is a bendable metal shaping hose, the shower head on the water pipe can be swung to any height, which is more convenient for use.

Systems and Methods of Purge Water Recovery
20190359381 · 2019-11-28 ·

A method of purge water recovery in which a hose has an end connected to a shower arm supply pipe located opposite another end having an adapter with a shut-off valve connected to a threaded spout of an expandable container. The expandable container receives purge water from plumbing in association with a water heater when a hot water supply valve is oriented in an open position. The gusset of the expandable container expands when purge water enters the expandable container. The shut-off valve of the hose adapter is closed when a user determines that the water temperature has reached a desirable bathing temperature. The adapter of the hose is removed from the threaded spout of the expandable container by a user. The user places a removable spigot on the threaded spout of the expandable container. The user dispenses the purge water from the expandable container during a subsequent use.

Shower Valve Replacement Kit
