System and Method for Hospitality Water Cleansing and Monitoring
20190159655 · 2019-05-30 · ·

Systems and methods of making and using a sink device fitted with sensors that measure characteristics related to the water cleansing and maintenance of the sink and its turnover and communicate this data to a cloud-based system that automatically or remotely operates mechanisms that control soap dispensation, sanitizer dispensation, liquid level, water temperature and dispensation, water cleanliness (with or without soap or sanitizer in solution) and draining, as required for hospitality regulation compliance. Although three-compartment sinks are the primary subject matter used in the following examples to illustrate the features and functions of the systems and methods, the features and functions provided by the present disclosure may be adapted for use in other sinks, tubs, and the like.

Ultrasound system control panel and display lift

The control panel and display of a cart-borne ultrasound system are support by a lift which can be controlled to allow the control panel and display to be raised, lowered, and rotated. The lift has a first pivot elbow mounted to the ultrasound system cart and a second pivot elbow on which the control panel and display are mounted. A four-bar linkage is coupled between the pivot elbows which enables to control panel and display to be raised and lowered while maintaining the inclination of the control panel. The pivot elbows allow the control panel and display to be turned and rotated. A pair of hydraulic struts are mounted to the four-bar linkage to support the weight of the control panel and display. When a control button on the handle of the control panel is depressed the control panel and display can be freely raised, lowered and rotated. When the control button is released the pivot elbows and four-bar linkages are locked in their current positions.

The present invention is directed to a mobile sink assembly including a container partitioned into two compartments with an overflow aperture in a dividing wall providing fluid communication between an upper compartment and a lower compartment. There is a first trap in the top opening of the upper compartment and a second trap positionable below the first trap. There is a riser and valve assembly coupled to the draining aperture in the first trap and configured to control a flow of liquid from the first trap. There is a pump that pumps fluid from the lower compartment to the first trap. In this way water recirculates through the traps while particulate matter is retained in the first and second traps.

Apron sink

A sink includes a basin body having a generally concave shape that forms at least one sink basin, a top flange integrally formed with the basin body, the top flange extending around a rim of the at least one sink basin, the top flange having an underside that is generally flat, an apron connected onto a front portion of the underside of the top flange, and an adhesive disposed between the apron and the underside of the top flange to secure the apron to the basin body.

Drain Diverted Dirty Water and Continuously Circulated Clean Water System
20180274211 · 2018-09-27 ·

According to embodiments of the present disclosure is a water delivery system that continuously flows and recirculates clean water, diverting only water that has touched a user's hands. No sensing is required to activate the water flow and the actions of the user effectively divert the dirty water to a drain. The water delivery system comprises a clean water outlet, a clean water inlet, a dirty water drain, and a circulation pump. A stream of water continuously flows from the outlet and is received by the water inlet if the stream is uninterrupted. If the stream is disturbed, such as by the hand washing activities of the user, the stream is diverted from the inlet and instead falls into a sink and into the drain.

Multi-function fixture for a lavatory system

Systems and methods for a multi-function lavatory fixture are disclosed. The lavatory fixture includes a first and second leg, where a first end of each leg is configured to be mounted to a deck and a second end of each leg is located over a basin of the lavatory fixture. A connecting section extends between the second ends of each leg and includes outlets to dispense water, soap, and air to wash a user's hands. The fixture also includes indicators located proximate each of the outlets to indicate to the user the location of each outlet. A sensor located near each outlet identifies the presence of a user's hands near the outlet and dispenses water, soap, or air accordingly. A controller within the lavatory fixture receives inputs from each sensor and activates the appropriate pump, fan, valve, and the like to deliver the desired product at the appropriate outlet.
