Adjustment device for a water delivery unit
An adjustment device for a water delivery unit includes a valve body extending along a longitudinal axis with a water inlet and outlet, a shutter arrangement to control water flow from the inlet to the outlet, a first actuating member movable along the longitudinal axis to arrange shutter arrangement into opening and closing positions to respectively enable/disable the passage of water and a second actuating member rotatable about the longitudinal axis to vary the opening position of the shutter arrangement to adjust a flow rate of the water exiting the valve body. The device has a manual control member coupling with the first and second actuating members and configured to receive a manual action by a user for opening, closing and adjusting the flow rate of the water. The second actuating member cooperates with the shutter arrangement through a cam arrangement for varying the opening position of the shutter arrangement.
TEMPERATURE-REGULATING DOUBLE-CONTROL AUTOMATIC FAUCET
A temperature-regulating double-control automatic faucet includes a faucet body, a single-handle double-control mixed water valve core having a lever, a solenoid valve, a water pipe assembly, a controller, a magnetic induction device, and a proximity sensor. The single-handle double-control mixed water valve core is installed in the faucet body cylinder. The magnetic induction device is configured to detect a position change of the lever. The proximity sensor is configured to sense a manual operation. The automatic faucet has a manual control mode and a sensing control mode for use, which can be used conveniently.
MAGNETIC COUPLING FOR SPRAYHEADS
A faucet including a faucet head, a body and a magnetic coupling releasably coupling the faucet head to the faucet body.
DOMESTIC WATER TAP
A domestic water tap (1000) is disclosed. The present application relates to a tap and an inner body for routing liquid within a tap, for example, a domestic water tap or faucet. The domestic water tap (1000) comprises an outer body (1010, 1012) and an inner body (100). The inner body (100) is housed within the outer body (1010, 1012). The outer body (1010, 1012) comprises at least one flow channel (1020, 1022) in which water can flow through the tap (1000) without contacting the outer body (1010, 1012). The inner body (100) is made from plastics and comprises at least one non-threaded bore for securely receiving a connector for delivering water from a source into the inner body (100).
ELECTRONIC USER INTERFACE FOR ELECTRONIC MIXING OF WATER FOR RESIDENTIAL FAUCETS
A water delivery system is disclosed. The water delivery system may have an electronic user interface. The electronic user interface may be a portable device. The electronic user interface may include inputs to select water temperature, water flow rates, water flow patterns, and/or task based presets. A mixing valve for use with either manual faucets or electronic faucets is disclosed.
Faucet Hose Adapter
A faucet hose adapter includes an elongated tube having a first end opposite a second end defining a channel therebetween. The first end is dimensioned to secure over a faucet such that fluid dispensed from the faucet exits through the second end. An aperture is disposed through the elongated tube adjacent to the first end, wherein the aperture can receive a faucet valve handle therethrough.
FAUCET STRUCTURE
A faucet structure has: a valve base, an exiting hose, the two entering hose, a bottom panel, a housing, a seal cover and a handle. A valve chamber is on the valve base, and a supporting tube with first engaging openings protrudes from a supporting leg. The bolt with a sleeve nut is attached to the securing base, and two second engaging openings are on the connecting tube. The exiting hose is provided with the groove, the output head, the divider and the positioning tab. The entering hose is provided with a ring groove matched with a locking panel. The housing has a first body, a second body, a first assembly opening, a second assembly opening, a through aperture, two grooves and a ring slot. The seal cover has a first body portion, a second body portion, a third body, a beveled panel, a positioning aperture and a passing section.
Multi-channel plumbing products
Novel plumbing products, including faucets, are fabricated, e.g., using metallic 3-dimensional or other 3-D printing techniques, to have complex geometries, such as multiple channels that may diverge and re-converge near the spout. The geometries of the various channels can resemble interwoven net-like patterns that define various shapes between the channels. The plumbing fixtures may be formed from one or more of stainless steels, INCONEL, brass, bronze, polycarbonate, PVC, acrylics, rigid polyolefins, PET, carbon fiber, AES, or other plumbing fitting suitable corrosion resistant materials. In some embodiments, the handles of an exemplary faucet can include the same or a similar multiple channel configuration as the spout, providing an advantageously, aesthetically pleasing faucet system. In exemplary embodiments, faucet spouts and their handles are formed so as to couple to standard faucet underbodies, standard valve platforms, or standard threaded hose/waterway connections.
Apparatus, method and system for standardizing hand care
An apparatus, method and system for providing and dispensing various hand care alternatives from a common point of dispension, such as a faucet, for standardizing the hand care, washing, sanitizing, and drying process is disclosed. Included is a liquid flow path having an inlet in fluid communication with a liquid source and an outlet in fluid communication with a user reception point. A secondary flow path has an inlet in communication with one or more hand care alternatives and an outlet in communication with the user reception point. A user-perceivable output provides notification of the hand care operation being provided at the user reception point.
COMPOSITE FAUCET BODY AND INTERNAL WATERWAY
The present application generally relates to a faucet. The faucet includes a continuous internal waterway and a body. The continuous internal waterway includes a first chamber, a second chamber, a valve seat, and a waterway. The second chamber is configured to receive water from a water source. The valve seat is coupled to the first chamber and the second chamber. The valve seat is in fluid communication with the second chamber. The waterway is in fluid communication with the valve seat. The body encapsulates the continuous internal waterway. The faucet is operational to receive the water from the water source and to provide the water to the waterway. The body is isolated from the water by the continuous internal waterway during operation of the faucet.
