SHOWER HEAD
A shower head comprises a body, a water outlet panel, and a switching member. The body comprises a valve cavity, a water inlet passage, a first water outlet passage, and a second water outlet passage, and each of the water inlet passage, the first water outlet passage, and the second water outlet passage is in communication with the valve cavity. The switching member comprises a valve rod portion and an elastic member. The water outlet panel is rotatably connected to the body and comprises a position-providing groove. When the position-providing groove is rotated to correspond to the valve rod portion, the valve rod portion is configured to be driven to be moved and switched to block the first water outlet passage, and the elastic member generates an elastic force.
Anti-slip shower system
An anti-slip shower system includes a water passage assembly and a water outlet pipe assembly movably arranged on the water passage assembly. The water outlet pipe assembly includes an adjustment male part which can limit movement of the water outlet pipe assembly on the water passage assembly. The water passage assembly includes a water passage cavity and an insertion channel, the water passage cavity and the insertion channel are arranged at an interval, and a movement channel is arranged between the insertion channel and the water passage cavity. The movement channel is internally provided with a piston, when the piston and the adjustment male part are away from the water outlet pipe assembly, the water outlet pipe assembly is movable on the water passage assembly, when the piston and/or the adjustment male part presses against the water outlet pipe assembly, the water outlet pipe assembly is stably fixed.
LOW PROFILE TRANSCATHETER HEART VALVE
An implantable prosthetic valve includes a radially collapsible and expandable annular frame having three commissure attachment portions and at least three rows of angled struts. The rows include a first row, a second row downstream of the first row, and a third row downstream of the second row. Each row of struts includes angled struts arranged in a zig-zag pattern defining a plurality of crowns. A leaflet structure includes three leaflets forming three commissures, each commissure being connected to one of the commissure attachment portions via sutures extending through apertures in the commissure attachment portions, wherein all of the apertures are located along the length of the frame between a first plane defined by the crowns of the second row of struts and a second plane defined by the crowns of the third row of struts.
Low profile transcatheter heart valve
A prosthetic heart valve comprises a radially collapsible and expandable annular frame and a leaflet structure comprising three leaflets. Each leaflet has an upper edge portion, a curved lower edge portion and two side flaps, wherein each side flap is connected to an adjacent side flap of another leaflet to form commissures of the leaflet structure, with each commissure being attached to the frame. An annular inner sleeve comprises three U-shaped portions positioned along the curved lower edge portions of the leaflets. An annular outer sleeve extends around are outer surface of the frame, wherein the outer sleeve is made of pericardium. The frame is made of Nitinol and the prosthetic valve can be radially crimped to a radially collapsed configuration inside a sheath for delivery into a patient's body and self-expand to a radially expanded configuration when released from the sheath inside the patient's body.
Showerhead with pin plate
A spray head includes a front cover, a spray plate, and an actuator. The front cover includes a plurality of exit openings. The spray plate is oriented substantially parallel to the front cover. The spray plate includes a pin that is aligned with at least one exit opening of the plurality of exit openings. The pin is configured to selectively engage with the at least one exit opening to control a flow of water through the at least one exit opening. The actuator is coupled to the spray plate and is configured to reposition the spray plate relative to the front cover based on user input.
SHOWERHEADS WITH HIGH SOLIDITY PLENUMS
Multiple single plenum and dual plenum showerhead designs are disclosed. In the designs, pillars are disposed in each plenum to increase solidity of the plenums to provide improved axial heat conduction through the showerheads. The heat conduction is further improved by providing solid and substantially conical backplates.
ADJUSTABLE SHOWERHEAD SUPPORT SYSTEM
An adjustable showerhead support system capable of being attached to a shower chair. The showerhead support system has a showerhead support assembly operated by a showerhead support track lever allowing a user to move a showerhead forwards and backwards. The showerhead support assembly also has a telescoping bracket and telescoping legs to allow a user to adjust the height of the showerhead. The showerhead support system also includes a back track assembly operated by a back track lever that allows the user to move the showerhead left and right. The showerhead support system also includes a counterbalance.
SHOWER
A shower assembly includes an inlet port, a reservoir, and a plurality of drop outlet ports. The inlet port receives water from a water source at an inlet flow rate. The reservoir receives water from the inlet port, and is not pressurized by a line pressure of the water source even when the reservoir receives the water at a maximum inlet flow rate of up to 2.5 gallons per minute. Each of the plurality of drop outlet ports is configured such that water passes from the reservoir through the plurality of drop outlet ports, forms a drop at each drop outlet port, and falls from each drop outlet port by gravity only as discrete drops of water. A total flow capacity of the plurality of drop outlet ports is greater than or equal to the maximum inlet flow rate.
PAUSE ASSEMBLY FOR SHOWERHEADS
A showerhead including a head portion including a plurality of nozzles, a handle extending from the head portion and including an inlet, and a pause assembly positioned within the handle to control water flow from the inlet to the plurality of nozzles is disclosed. The pause assembly includes a control extending outwardly from the handle for manipulation by a user to change a state of the pause assembly and an actuator that translates motion of the control to change the state of the pause assembly.
LOW PROFILE TRANSCATHETER HEART VALVE
An implantable prosthetic valve includes a radially collapsible and expandable annular frame having three commissure attachment portions and at least three rows of angled struts. The rows include a first row, a second row downstream of the first row, and a third row downstream of the second row. Each row of struts includes angled struts arranged in a zig-zag pattern defining a plurality of crowns. A leaflet structure includes three leaflets forming three commissures, each commissure being connected to one of the commissure attachment portions via sutures extending through apertures in the commissure attachment portions, wherein all of the apertures are located along the length of the frame between a first plane defined by the crowns of the second row of struts and a second plane defined by the crowns of the third row of struts.
