Undermount sink
A sink system and methods of making and using sink systems including a sink basin and a discharge conduit coupled to the sink basin, which is positioned to expel fluid into the sink basin via an outlet thereof. The flow of fluid through the discharge conduit may be activated via a motion sensor or switch coupled directly to the basin or a spacer ring positioned between the basin and the countertop. Controls for adjusting the temperature and/or flow rate of fluid through the discharge conduit may also be coupled to the basin or a spacer ring positioned between the basin and the countertop, or alternatively, to a surface of the countertop.
Multi-outlet faucet systems
A faucet (102) is provided having a faucet body (106) and a faucet head (108), wherein the faucet head (108) comprises a first outlet (110, 112) and a second outlet (110, 112). The faucet is configured such that manual rotation of the faucet head (108) causes the faucet to toggle between a first mode in which fluid is dispensed from the first outlet and a second mode in which fluid is dispensed from the second outlet. Manual rotation of the faucet head may cause one or more valves to be physically/mechanically and/or electronically controlled to control flow of fluid to toggle between the different modes. One fluid outlet may be configured to dispense a first kind of fluid while the other fluid outlet may be configured to dispense a second kind of fluid.
FLEXIBLE SUPPORTING STRUCTURE
The present disclosure is directed to a flexible supporting structure that includes a linkage mechanism capable of being bent for adjustment. The linkage mechanism includes at least one row of a linkage plate assembly, and the linkage plate assembly includes at least two linkage toothed plates which are meshed and connected in sequence. At least one end portion of each of the at least two linkage toothed plates is provided with a meshing tooth portion such that a first meshing tooth portion of a first linkage toothed plate is meshed with a second meshing tooth portion of a second linkage toothed plate. The flexible supporting structure is applicable to various products and provides a function of adjusting an angle or a bending degree in a wide range by using linkage between the linkage toothed plates.
Mounting dual showering system
a mounting dual showering system that allows two people to shower independent of each other and is easy to install/uninstall without any damage since no large tools are required. Mostly but not limited to renters that Connot remodel or change their bathrooms and anyone looking to have a better showering environment. This device can be adjusted to create but not limited to one or two zones within the shower/tube area that give users almost equal showering experience.
Articulating faucet
A water delivery device includes a first conduit section and a second conduit section rotatably coupled to the first conduit section by a magnetic joint. The magnetic joint includes a plurality of magnets that cooperatively define a plurality of rotational positions between the first conduit section and the second conduit section.
ARTICULATING FAUCET
A faucet includes a base configured to attach to a support, an outlet for dispensing a fluid, an articulable spout including a plurality of segments operatively coupled together sequentially between the base and the outlet and configured to rotate relative to one another to transition the articulable spout between a first position and a second position, and an actuator operatively coupled to at least two segments of the plurality of segments and configured to rotate the at least two segments in opposite rotational directions.
Axially compressible bearing
Disclosed is a bearing configured to couple a faucet spout to a faucet body. The bearing includes a plurality of fingers extending parallel to a central axis of the bearing. The plurality of fingers is configured to engage with the faucet spout at an intermediate position between a first end of the bearing and a second end of the bearing. The fingers are configured to exert an outward pressure to the faucet spout. The fingers are also configured to compress in a substantially axial direction.
LIFTING AND LOWERING ROD DEVICE WITH WATER OUTLET TERMINAL AND SHOWER DEVICE
A lifting and lowering rod device with a water outlet terminal comprises one or more fixed portions configured to be connected to a wall, a lifting and lowering rod assembly connected to the one or more fixed portions, and a water inflow passage configured to be in communication with an external water source. The water outlet terminal is disposed on the lifting and lowering rod assembly, and the water outlet terminal is in communication with the water inflow passage.
Spouted base faucet
A method and apparatus is disclosed for a combined base and add-on faucet. The faucet apparatus includes two inlet risers with valves and a bridge, or mixing chamber, extending therebetween. A first outlet riser intersects the bridge and caries mixed fluid to opposing ends. The first end may be capped, or may contain a third valve to control fluid output to a first nozzle to direct fluid downward. The second end may pass fluid through a vertical riser to an auxiliary faucet, such as a pre-rinse faucet, having a second nozzle.
UNDERMOUNT SINK
A sink system is provided. The sink system includes a sink basin and a discharge conduit coupled to the sink basin, which is positioned to expel fluid into the sink basin via an outlet thereof. The flow of fluid through the discharge conduit may be activated via a motion sensor or switch coupled directly to the basin or a spacer ring positioned between the basin and the countertop. Controls for adjusting the temperature and/or flow rate of fluid through the discharge conduit may also be coupled to the basin or a spacer ring positioned between the basin and the countertop, or alternatively, to a surface of the countertop. Methods of making and using sink systems are also provided.
