A stopper assembly for a drain system of a fluid basin and related methods, systems and components. The stopper head assembly includes a stopper head having a seal to sealingly engage the drain system of the fluid basin when the stopper assembly is moved from a drain position to a plug position and a strainer to strain fluid passing through the drain system when the stopper head is in a drain position.

A method for removing a sink drain stopper includes providing a sink drain aid including a handle and a suction cup connected to the handle; engaging the sink drain aid suction cup to a sink stopper; and pulling on the handle to remove the sink drain stopper. A device to perform the method includes the sink drain aid described.

A pop-up drain assembly for a sink has a drain stopper, a generally vertical control rod and a generally horizontal pivot rod. A connector device links the control rod to the pivot rod. The connector device has compressive-friction connectors that receive and hold the control rod and the pivot rod. The connector device preferably has a pair of opposing C-channels that define a hole therebetween, where the control rod is received through the hole and within an open C-shaped space in the C-channels, and preferably a two-prong fork, where the pivot rod is held in a compressive-friction fit between the prongs on the connector device. The drain stopper preferably has a dual-prong fork, and the pivot rod is received between the prongs on the drain stopper in a compressive-friction fit.

A drain cover assembly for a lavatory includes an adapter and a drain cover. The adapter includes a body and a first end portion extending from the body. The drain cover is removably coupled to the first end portion. The body is configured to removably couple to a cartridge actuator in a first configuration and a drain insert in a second configuration.

A lavatory includes a basin including a bottom surface, the basin configured to hold a volume of water; and a drain opening disposed in the bottom surface of the basin. The bottom surface of the basin includes a substantially horizontally extending projection formed integrally with the bottom surface of the basin. The horizontally extending projection is disposed over the drain opening such that the drain opening is at least partially obscured from a view of a user.

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.

Implementations of a garbage disposal assembly apparatus are provided. In some implementations, the garbage disposal assembly apparatus comprises a top part, an elongated member, a handle, and a support member.

In some implementations, a method of using the garbage disposal assembly apparatus comprises installing a garbage disposal assembly to a sink using the garbage disposal assembly apparatus.

A lockable plug device for sanitary ware comprises a closure member operable to engage with an outlet or drain of the sanitary ware product to stop water emptying from the sanitary ware product, for example a bath. The lockable plug device also includes a closure mechanism, which is linked to the closure member and is operable to displace the closure member relative to the outlet or drain such that the outlet can be open or closed. The closure mechanism comprises a lock feature, which is operable to lock the closure member in an open position.

This invention seeks to improve the existing attachment method for the pivot rod and clevis, parts of a sink pop-up drain assembly. The pivot rod at the open end is guided through a hole in the clevis to set the desired lift height of the sink drain stopper. The existing fastener used to attach the pivot rod to the clevis is only a single spring clip. This configuration is susceptible to slippage, causing detachment of the pivot rod from the clevis, therefore rendering the pop-up mechanism inoperable. My new improved fastening method uses a threaded pivot rod with hardware on both sides of the clevis to prevent slippage and provide a more reliable means of attachment.

A drainage assembly for a bathtub includes a stopper unit having a base including a drain passage and a lock hole defined through a bottom thereof. A drain pipe includes a tub shoe at one end thereof and the tub shoe communicates with the drain passage. An extension extends from the inner bottom of the tub shoe. A guide member includes a rod which includes a first connection portion formed on the first end of the rod, and a hook formed on the second end of the rod. The first connection portion is detachably connected to the extension to extend the rod through the lock hole so as to align the tub shoe with the base, and to connect the outer threads of the base with the inner threads of the tub shoe easily.
