A sprayhead that includes a body and first and second diverters. The body has an inlet for receiving a fluid; first, second, and third chambers; and first, second, and third outlets for dispensing the fluid in first, second, and third modes, respectively. The first diverter moves between a first position wherein the second chamber fluidly connects to the inlet and the first chamber fluidly disconnects from the inlet and a second position wherein the first outlet fluidly connects to the inlet through the first chamber and the second chamber fluidly disconnects from the inlet. The second diverter moves between a first position wherein the second outlet fluidly connects to the second chamber and the third chamber fluidly disconnects from the second chamber and a second position wherein the third outlet fluidly connects to the second chamber through the third chamber and the second outlet fluidly disconnects from the second chamber.

Weight assembly for a faucet

A weight assembly is fixed on a hose of a faucet and contains: a tubular retainer and a counterweight. The tubular retainer includes a first segment, a second segment, a fitting orifice, an opening, an engagement portion, and a forced portion. The counterweight includes a third segment, a fourth segment, a through orifice, and a press portion. After the tubular retainer is fitted on the hose, the fourth segment of the counterweight moves toward the first segment of the tubular retainer so that the press portion presses the forced portion of the tubular retainer after the tubular retainer is accommodated into the through orifice, and the forced portion retracts inward to actuate the engagement portion to engage with the hose.

Faucet Extender

A faucet extender having a channel adapted to extend and divert a fluid out of an open edge away from a faucet opening. The faucet extender may have a fluid outlet fitting having a receiving opening and a flow-through opening. The faucet extender may have an attachment mechanism that pivotally rotates and secures the fluid outlet fitting in an angle that diverts the fluid to the open edge. The faucet extender is adapted to interface with a variety of different faucet configurations.

Faucet illumination device

An illumination device for a faucet includes an opaque base supported above a translucent diffuser. A plurality of light emitters is supported by a substrate intermediate the base and the diffuser, wherein light from the light emitters is transmitted through the diffuser and outwardly to provide a display of substantially uniform light.
