Sink Strainer Basket with Odor Prevention Arrangement
A sink strainer basket includes a strainer body having a drainage opening, and an odor prevention arrangement. The odor prevention arrangement includes a drain regulator movably provided on a bottom side of the strainer body to normally close the drainage opening, a supporting member supported by the strainer body, and a resilient member mounted on the supporting member. The resilient member is arranged to exert a biasing force toward the drain regulator so as to normally drive the drain regulator to close the drainage opening, wherein when a predetermined amount of sewage is allowed to pour into the drainage cavity, the biasing force exerted by the resilient member is temporarily overcome by the force caused by flowing of the sewage so that the drain regulator is arranged to move away from the drainage opening for allowing the sewage to drain into the sink drainage hole.

Bathtub drain stopper
A bathtub drain stopper includes an open-close mechanism having threaded upper and lower ends, a cap, a seal, and means for anchoring the open-close mechanism in a drain pipe, where the length can be adjusted and fixed with a lock nut. A threaded anchor is provided for a tub shoe having a crossbar with a threaded opening. An anchor having prongs is provided for a tub shoe having a crossbar with no opening. A wheel-shaped anchor having an O-ring about its perimeter is provided for a drain that does not have a crossbar.

Drain strainer
A stopper cartridge for a drain system of a fluid basin, components thereof and related methods are provided. The stopper cartridge includes a stopper head and a strainer to strain fluid passing through the drain system when the stopper head is in a drain position. The stopper head and the strainer may be selectively removable from the drain system by manipulating the stopper head relative to the drain system or a component installed in the drain system.

Drain assembly to prevent clogs
The plug for a drain collects debris before the debris can enter the plumbing. The plug includes an outer rim; a conical core having a top cone end and a bottom core end opposite the top cone end; a cone cover being placed at the top cone end; and a plurality of cone ridges extending from the cone cover and toward the outer rim. The conical core has a conical surface with an inner side and an outer side opposite the inner side, a plurality of flow holes, and a plurality of strainer holes. Each cone ridge has a top cone ridge end larger than a bottom cone ridge end so as to form a collection ring portion on the conical surface. The conical core can have a plurality of protrusions extending outward. Debris can be collected by the protrusions at the strainer holes and at the collection ring.

POP-UP DRAIN STOPPER AND ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY
A drain control assembly having a pop-up stopper controlled by a cam actuating mechanism allowing the stopper to alternately seal and unseat from the drain opening by pressing down on the stopper. Actuator guide rings extending from vertical fins and tabs are used to align and removably secure the actuator in position within the drain pipe. The stopper seal seats against the sink housing the drain providing a water tight seal. The assembly has a removable catch screen to retain items fallen into the drain. The stopper and actuator assembly can be dislodged and the entire assembly removed and items in the catch screen can be retrieved or the actuator removed for cleaning. The assembly can then be reinstalled by simply inserting it down into the drain.
