A drain plug linkage device includes a pull rod assembly, an operating rod, a drain plug, and a drain pipe. The pull rod assembly includes a pull rod and a connecting sleeve. The operating rod has a plurality of spaced recessed portions. The connecting sleeve and the operating rod are arranged crosswise. The connecting sleeve has a plurality of spaced positioning portions each having an opening. One of the recessed portions of the operating rod is selectively inserted through the opening of a corresponding one of the positioning portions to be positioned therein. The operation of adjusting the height of the pull rod assembly and the distance between the pull rod assembly and a washbasin, bathroom sink or hand wash sink is simple.

DRAIN SYSTEM FOR BATHTUB

A drain system for controlling a water level in a bathtub includes a drain exit assembly coupled to an exit drain of the bathtub and configured to receive water exiting the bathtub, a valve fluidly coupled to the drain exit assembly and operably coupled to a motor, and a pressure sensor communicatively coupled to the valve and in fluid communication with the drain exit assembly. The motor is configured to change the operational state of the valve based on a pressure sensed by the pressure sensor to control a water level within the bathtub.

Bath waste and overflow systems and methods of use

A bath waste and overflow drain system of the present disclosure may comprise both drain and overflow assemblies. The drain assembly generally includes a drain elbow, drain gasket, drain spud, drain trim, and drain stopper. The drain trim may possess weep channels that urge stagnated water from a periphery of the drain spud and into the drain. The overflow assembly generally includes an overflow elbow, overflow gasket, retaining nut, and overflow faceplate. The overflow faceplate may have bayonet channels that engage with a protrusion of the overflow elbow so as to accommodate variances in tub design when effecting an installation. The system according to an embodiment may also comprise test plugs of the overflow and drain varieties which are, together, operable to permit pressure-related tests of the system prior to completing an installation. The overflow and drain test plugs are simple to manipulate and install/remove with quick-engaging, complementary locking features.

Drain plug linkage arrangement

The pull rod assembly includes a pull rod and a connecting rod, wherein the pull rod is connected to the connecting rod via a button. A first end of the operating rod is inserted into the drain pipe from a sidewall of the drain pipe and is connected to the drain plug. The operating rod is connected to the connecting rod of the pull rod assembly. Assembly and disassembly between the pull rod and the connecting rod disclosed in the present invention are very convenient.

Systems and Methods for Flood Prevention
20230407662 · 2023-12-21 · ·

A comprehensive dry flood proofing solution to mitigate inland flooding risk for existing or new homes and small buildings. This family of integrated systems of the present disclosure each leverage the building's structure to offer practical and affordable flood protection for those buildings constructed with slab-on-grade foundations. This family of solutions includes pluggable weep holes, entry door/garage door/window protectors, wall appurtenances and penetration protection, house wrap and debris barrier system for wall protection and sewage anti-backflow protection. The components of the solution are reusable, easy to deploy, and do not detract from the building's permanent appearance. Furthermore, the solution allows for ingress/egress during flood events and can protect the building from standing water incursion up to 24 above slab elevation. The pre-flood design and preparation, the deployment immediately preceding flooding event and the subsequent removal after flooding event has passed is provided by both contractors and homeowners.
