There is proposed a water fitting having a fitting housing, having a water outlet commonly assigned to at least two water inlets, wherein at least two parallelly guided water lines are provided between one or more water inlets and the common water outlet, and wherein, in the parallelly guided water lines, there is provided in each case one control element for opening and closing the water flow path, which water fitting can be used in a flexible manner for the greatest possible number of sanitary applications, for example in kitchens, bathrooms, swimming facilities, sauna facilities, toilet facilities, abattoirs or the like, both in (semi-) public and also private areas. This is achieved according to the invention in that, when a control element in one of the parallel water lines is open, the one or more further control elements in the one or more further parallel water lines are closed.

Portable spray system
09770732 · 2017-09-26 ·

A portable, self-pressurizing sprayer or shower system includes a pressure container within a tank. Pressurized fluid, such as water from a residential water tap, is fluidly connected to the pressure container to fill and pressurize the system with the fluid. The sprayer system is then disconnected from the pressurized fluid source and transported to a remote location. A tube is then fluidly connected to the pressure container and the pressurized fluid is released through the tube to provide a portable sprayer system. A heating probe is provided that is removably secured to a second port in the pressure container. A fill kit is provided to fill the pressure container with a fluid, and then a pump is used to pressurize the system when a pressurized fluid source is unavailable.

Testing cap for a valve body

A testing cap for a valve body includes a base configured to releasably attach to the valve body and to cover an opening in the valve body. The opening is configured to receive a valve cartridge and the base covers the opening in place of the valve cartridge. The testing cap includes a structure extending from the base. The structure is configured to be oriented relative to the valve body in a first orientation and a second orientation. The structure allows fluid to enter the valve body through an inlet port in the valve body and exit the valve body through an outlet port in the valve body when the structure is oriented in the first orientation. The structure covers at least one of the inlet port and the outlet port when the structure is oriented in the second orientation, thereby preventing fluid flow through the valve body.

SHOWER HEAD WITH WATERFALL FUNCTION

The present invention is provided with a shower head with waterfall function, comprising a shell body, the interior of the shell body is disposed with a waterfall waterway, wherein the shell body is further disposed with a rectifying passage, one end of the rectifying passage is disposed with an inlet, the inlet is connected to the waterfall waterway, the other end of the rectifying passage is disposed with an elongated outlet nozzle, the distance of each point of the outlet nozzle to the inlet are basically equal. The distance of each point of the outlet nozzle to the inlet are basically equal, water flowing out of the each point of the outlet nozzle has equal flow rate, efficiently delaying the converge of the water and thus lengthening the water curtain.

HOT WATER SAVING SYSTEM

The saving of water in a shower start up is accomplished by a secondary water tank that delivers hot water while water in the pipes is diverted, mixed or separately heated.

Water Conservation System
20170260721 · 2017-09-14 ·

A water conservation system includes a shower that may deliver a fluid. The shower has a pair of intersecting walls, a shower head and a drain. The shower head may be fluidly coupled to a fluid source thereby facilitating the shower head to deliver the fluid. A storage unit is positioned in the shower and the storage unit is fluid communication with the shower head. The storage unit is positioned in an open position when the shower is initially turned on. Thus, the storage unit stores cold fluid until heated fluid travels to the shower head thereby inhibiting the cold fluid from passing through the drain. The storage unit retains the cold fluid to be used at a later time.

Shower

A shower assembly includes an inlet, a reservoir, a plurality of first outlets, and a plurality of second outlets. The inlet is for receiving water from a water source, and is configured to restrict water flow from the water source to a maximum inlet flow rate. The reservoir receives from the inlet. The plurality of first outlets are configured to pass water from the reservoir. The plurality of second outlets are configured to selectively pass water from the reservoir. The shower assembly is configured for a user to selectively control whether water passes through the plurality of second outlets. A sum of a first collective flow rate of the plurality of first outlets and a second collective flow rate of the plurality of second outlets is greater than the maximum inlet flow rate.

METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR STABILIZING A LOOSE SHOWERHEAD ASSEMBLY
20220234067 · 2022-07-28 ·

A method for stabilizing a loose showerhead assembly and a shower stabilizer assembly are provided. The showerhead stabilizer assembly includes a stabilizer plate, one or more spacers of varying sizes/thicknesses, and a plurality of fasteners to secure the stabilizer plate to a structure. The method for stabilizing a loose showerhead includes the steps of removing the showerhead, installing one or more spacers onto the shower arm pipe to a depth that creates a hard stop, installing the stabilizer plate such that a spacer contact nipple of the stabilizer plate creates a hard stop against the spacer and the circular flange is in contact with the front surface of the shower wall, and securing the stabilizer plate by installing one or more fasteners in appropriate mounting holes located in the flange.
