A double check valve is provided that includes an in-line inlet check valve and an outlet check valve that cooperate to prevent back flow of fluid through the valve. The check valve also includes at least one vent that allows for fluid trapped within the check valve to drain, thereby preventing freezing of the check valve and hydrant to which it is interconnected. The check valve provided omits many superfluous components and thus is smaller and easier to install than check valves of the prior art.

A flushometer system having an integrated control stop and three ports. The piston or flush control device is accessible through an actuation opening. The flushometer system may be utilized in a behind-the-wall installation with a face plate exterior for user interaction. The interior of the flushometer may be accessed through the actuation opening behind the face plate.

A vacuum breaker valve includes a valve body and a vacuum breaking device mounted in the valve body. The valve body has a periphery provided with multiple air vent holes corresponding to the vacuum breaking device. The vacuum breaking device includes a mounting barrel, an elastic member, a braking member, a mounting plate, a water stop gasket, and a water inlet disk. The vacuum breaking device is assembled previously and then directly fitted into the valve body to construct the vacuum breaker valve. Thus, the vacuum breaking device and the valve body are combined together for a whole sale or the vacuum breaking device and the valve body are sold individually.

A male external incontinence device comprising a drainage tube assembly having a proximal chamber in fluid communication with a drainage tube, the proximal chamber comprising an atmospheric equilibrium valve assembly. The atmospheric equilibrium valve assembly has an airway conduit with a upper portion in fluid communication with the proximal chamber, and a lower portion having an air inlet chamber. A one-way air valve disposed in the airway conduit above the air inlet chamber, the one-way air valve comprising a first pair of opposing walls disposed at a first set of opposing angles such that the first pair of opposing walls abut each other at an apex, the apex having a self-sealing slit.

An anti-siphon system for use with an irrigation system, such as lawn sprinkling system is disclosed. The system includes a backflow prevention valve with a bonnet- and poppet valve system with a conical spring that biases a lower poppet valve head, and engages the valve body. The use of the conical spring simplifies the mechanism, while providing reliable backflow prevention.

A vacuum breaker includes a safe valve body and an elastic gasket. The safe valve body has a receiving space which has a periphery provided with connecting holes. The elastic gasket has a size smaller than that of the receiving space, with clearances being defined between the elastic gasket and the receiving space. The elastic gasket has a center provided with a through hole and has an outer periphery provided with a sealing portion. Thus, the sealing portion contracts inward when water stops passing the safe valve body, so that ambient air flows into the receiving space to break a vacuum state in the safe valve body, such that a fluid contained in the safe valve body flows through the clearances between the elastic gasket and the safe valve body, and is drained outward from the connecting holes.
