Disclosed are various embodiments for a universal sink stopper and strainer. Various embodiments can include a handle, a plate, and a gasket. The gasket can include a first plurality of holes. The plate can include a protrusion and a second plurality of holes. The protrusion is shaped to extend through a portion of the gasket. The handle is configured to rotate to adjust an alignment of the first plurality of holes of the gasket with respect to the second plurality of holes of the plate.

The single bar clog prevention drainage system is a novel drain system that reduces the likelihood of clogs occurring by increasing the amount of space in the circular drain and using a single bar system within the drain to secure a drain stopper, thereby allowing hair and other debris to easily pass through the drain without creating clogs. The increased space in the circular drain eliminates the need to use snakes, harsh chemicals, or any of the other products and methods commonly used to clear a drain, saving the user both time and effort when dealing with bathtub drainage systems.

Drain valve assembly for a basin includes a drain having a sidewall, which defines a first opening in fluid communication with the basin and with a first portion of the drain. Sidewall includes wall formation positioned within the drain which extends across the first opening separating the first portion of the drain from a second portion of the drain. First portion of the wall formation extends in a first direction away from the basin and defines an outlet opening which extends through the first portion. Plug member is aligned with the outlet opening and movable from a first position with the plug member abutting the first portion and closing the outlet opening and to a second position wherein the plug member is positioned spaced apart from first portion placing the outlet opening in an open position providing fluid communication between the first portion and the second portion of the drain.

A method is provided for a plumbing parts supplier to reduce inventory of sink drain assemblies. Drain assemblies for overflow-type sinks have an overflow port, while drain assemblies for vessel sinks do not. Some drain assemblies have open and closed positions, while a grid drain or an umbrella drain does not. A drain assembly may be available in different finishes. Rather than having an inventory of drain assemblies for all possible applications, kits are provided that allow an end-user to assemble one of two or more drain assemblies. One kit includes a drain assembly for an overflow-type sink and a sleeve that fits in the drain assembly and covers an overflow port. Other kits include a drain assembly with a push-type open-close mechanism and means for keeping the drain assembly in the open position. Another kit includes a push-button drain assembly with an overflow port, means for converting it an umbrella drain and a sleeve for covering the overflow port.

Sinks and drains for sinks permitting the attachment of the drain to the sink such that the drain is substantially disposed below the top surface of the sink basin, and such that there is no discernable separation between the base of the sink basin and the drain when viewed from above the sink. A method of making a sink such that there is no discernable separation between the base of the sink basin and the drain when viewed from above the sink.

This disclosure relates to drains in bathing environments. A drain fitting device can have a motor to actuate a cam to maneuver a drain stopper, enabling the flow of fluid through a drain inlet of a bathing environment. The drain fitting device can provide a motorized or actuated method for a user to quickly and reliably open a drain stopper of a bathing environment.

A drain plug linkage structure, comprising a pull rod assembly, a driving rod and a drain plug movably fitted in a drain pipe, the driving rod having a front end and a rear end, the front end of the driving rod being inserted from the side of the drain pipe to the drain pipe and connecting with the drain plug, the pull rod assembly comprises a connecting rod and a pull rod connected to each other, wherein one of the driving rod and the connecting rod is provided with a plurality of fixing holes, the other of the driving rod and the connecting rod is provided with a plurality of protruding fixing members, and the fixing members are detachably coupled to the fixing holes. The present invention is provided that the assembly and disassembly of the driving rod and the connecting rod of the present invention are quicker.

A drain assembly for connection to a sanitary-appliance, comprising: a drain pipe having a pipe inlet and a pipe outlet and a valve arranged in a valve section of the drain pipe having a sealing face and a valve body, wherein the valve body can be moved away from the sealing face from a closed to an open position by an actuating element. Also included is an overflow pipe, which extends away from the drain tube from a first branch lying upstream of the valve seen in the direction of flow of the water to a second branch lying downstream of the valve seen in the direction of flow and thereby bridges the valve. The valve body is at least partially mounted on an insert element; the drain pipe has an insert receptacle; and the insert element can be inserted into the insert receptacle on the drain pipe.

A wastewater drain assembly is provided that includes a selectively openable drain stopper. The wastewater drain assembly is interconnected to a fluid basin wherein a flange, which is interconnected to wastewater plumbing, is situated within the sink. The flange receives an insert that has a portion that conceals the flange.
