SWIRL POT SHOWER HEAD ENGINE
A showerhead engine internally swirls water within a swirling chamber. Multiple swirling chambers may be used, each separated from one another. The water is swirled angled through holes in a mid plate. As the water passes through the angled holes, it is projected out an angle. The water then contacts the swirling chamber wall and continues to follow the curvature of the wall. The curved wall paired with the angled entry causes the water to continue to swirl within the swirling chamber. The water is released out of the swirling chamber through slots, which allow the water to retain the angular velocity at a discharge angle.
Decorative showerhead and mirror
A showerhead that is attached to a shower arm which extends outward from a wall in a shower to support a base and/or a mirror. The base is provided for decorative purposes or to support the mirror. The mirror provides a mirrored surface that can be utilized by a person taking a shower to more safely, efficiently and effectively shave and/or accomplish other grooming tasks. The mirror attaches to the base, directly to the showerhead or to a tubular post that interconnects the showerhead and the base or mirror. Water from the showerhead discharges adjacent to the mirror. In either configuration, the mirror is more securely positioned in the shower so it will not drop to the shower floor. Hot water flowing through the mirror reduces fogging of the mirrored surface. In one configuration, the base is made out metal to further reduce the likelihood of fogging.
Combined shower
A combined shower includes a wall-mounted supporting arm, an over-head shower, and a hand-held shower. The over-head shower is fixed on the wall-mounted supporting arm. The hand-held shower is detachably fixed on the over-head shower through a hose. A switching button is provided on the over-head shower, and the switching button is configured to selectively switch on the over-head shower or the hand-held shower through a handle. Additionally, the over-head shower is provided with a mounting ring, the hand-held shower is provided with a central hole, and the hand-held shower is sleeved outside the mounting ring through the central hole, which ensures that the hand-held shower can be stably fixed on the over-head shower and can also be freely taken and used.
SHOWERHEAD
A spray head assembly includes a body and a plurality of nozzles. The body is configured to receive a supply of fluid. The plurality of nozzles are disposed on the body and fluidly connected to the body. The plurality of nozzles are arranged in a substantially linear row having at least three nozzles. The plurality of nozzles are positioned to produce a non-linear spray pattern over a distributed area at a focal length from the body. In some embodiments, each one of the plurality of nozzles directs the fluid in a flow stream to a different location across the distributed area without intersecting the flow stream produced by another one of the plurality of nozzles.
MAGNETIC DOCKING SYSTEM
A shower head system includes a head portion extending from a first end to a second end, the second end including a first surface having a first shape and a second surface having a second shape; a cradle having a connecting end, the connecting end including a third surface shaped to correspond to the first surface and a fourth surface shaped to correspond to the second surface; and a coupling mechanism including at least one first element and at least one second element. The head portion is movable between (a) a docked configuration in which the second end of the head portion is removably coupled to the connecting end of the cradle via the coupling mechanism and (b) an unlocked configuration in which the head portion is separated from the cradle. When the head portion is the docked configuration, (a) the first surface mates with the third surface and (b) one of the second and fourth surfaces is received by the other one of the second and fourth surfaces. The first element is positioned adjacent to at least a portion of one of the first surface and the second surface, the second element being positioned adjacent to at least a portion of one of the third surface and the fourth surface. When the first element is positioned adjacent to at least the portion of the first surface, the second element is positioned adjacent to at least the portion of the third surface. When the first element is positioned adjacent to at least the portion of the second surface, the second element is positioned adjacent to at least the portion of the fourth surface. At least one of the first and second elements is composed of a magnetic material.
Flow restricting and diverting manifold for multiple function showerhead systems
A showerhead system is operable in different discharge modes and a combination of discharge modes. The showerhead system includes a manifold that restricts the total water discharge rate to a threshold value regardless of whether the showerhead operates in a single discharge mode or a combination of discharge modes.
Pipe design for prevent drip
A nozzle assembly for use in liquid-dispensing system, the nozzle assembly including: a body configured to receive a pipe; and the pipe, an end of the pipe being mounted on the body. The pipe includes multiple lumens correspondingly terminated in multiple orifices such that a liquid is escapable from each lumen through the corresponding orifice and is thereby dispensable from the nozzle assembly. The pipe has a first flow-capacity to supply a first volume of the liquid at a first flow-rate and at a first pressure. Each orifice and corresponding lumen has a second flow-capacity to supply a second volume of the liquid at a second flow-rate and at a second pressure.
Low profile transcatheter heart valve
An implantable prosthetic valve includes a radially collapsible and expandable annular frame having three commissure attachment posts and four rows of circumferential struts. The rows include a first row, a second row downstream of the first row, a third row downstream of the second row, and a fourth row downstream of the third row and defining an outflow end of the frame. Each row of circumferential struts includes angled struts arranged in a zig-zag pattern. A leaflet structure includes three leaflets forming three commissures, each commissure being connected to one of the commissure attachment posts only at locations along the commissure attachment posts between a first plane that is perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the frame and intersects crowns of the third row of struts and a second plane that is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis and intersects crowns of the fourth row of struts.
Showerhead
The present disclosure is related to a showerhead including a housing, a turbine, and a shutter. The housing defines a fluid inlet and a chamber in fluid communication with the fluid inlet. The chamber includes a plurality of engagement teeth and defines outlets for a first nozzle bank and a second nozzle bank. The turbine is received in the chamber. The shutter is received in the chamber and rotatably coupled to the turbine such that rotation of the turbine causes movement of the shutter. The shutter includes a plurality of shutter teeth positioned around a perimeter of the shutter. Engagement of the shutter teeth and the engagement teeth act to restrict the shutter from rotating while allowing the shutter to move across the chamber in a sliding motion.
