FAUCETS PROVIDING MIXED WATER AND AIR FLOW
A faucet having a faucet base, a water hose, a faucet head, and a chamber is provided. A water valve is provided in the chamber and includes a driving member and a control valve movable between a first position enabling mixing of water and air and a second position enabling shut-off of a water flow. The faucet head further includes a control member movably coupled with the faucet head to enable operating the control valve within the water valve by operating the control member from or near a side of the faucet head.
ADJUSTABLE FLOW LIMITER FOR A MIXING FAUCET AND A METHOD FOR ADJUSTING THE FLOW
A flow limiter (1) for setting a maximum flow of water at an outlet from a mixing faucet, wherein the flow limiter in the axial direction comprises a seat (3 a, 3 b) which along its periphery is provided with an annular wall (8a, 8b) and has flow channels (7) arranged inside and along said wall (8a, 8b), an actuator (30, 50) which is rotatably arranged on the seat (3a, 3b), a regulating device (20a, 20b) in the form of a body with a circumferential envelope surface (22, 43) facing the inside of said annular wall (8a, 8b), wherein the actuator (30, 50) comprises means (34a, 34b) for moving the regulating device (20a, 20b) in the axial direction, and wherein an annular cavity is formed between walls formed by the envelope surface (22, 43) of the regulating device and the wall (8a, 8b) of the seat, in which annular cavity an O-ring (24) is arranged, wherein one of the walls (43, 8a) of the annular cavity has open axially extending grooves (9, 44) with a cross-section area increasing in the direction of flow, whereby the O-ring (24) in its plane is adapted to slidably connect to said grooves (9, 44) and to adopt one of predetermined positions in the axial direction along said grooves (9, 44) upon rotation of the actuator (30, 50), and wherein said position corresponds to a maximum flow determined by a cross-section area for channels which is limited by the O-ring (24) and the walls of the grooves (9, 44) in the plane of the O-ring (24).
MULTI-FUNCTION SPRAYHEAD
A sprayhead having a valve including a body with an inlet and first, second, and third chambers; a first diverter movable between a first position, in which the second chamber is fluidly connected to the inlet and the first chamber is fluidly disconnected from the inlet, and a second position, in which the first chamber is fluidly connected to the inlet and the second chamber is fluidly disconnected from the inlet; and a second diverter movable between a first position, in which the third chamber is fluidly disconnected from the second chamber, and a second position, in which the third chamber is fluidly connected to the second chamber. The sprayhead having a first outlet that receives fluid from the first chamber; a second outlet fluidly connected to the second chamber when the second diverter is in the first position; and a third outlet that receives fluid from the third chamber.
Openable drain strainer
The present disclosure includes an openable drain strainer with a central longitudinal axis. An openable basket includes a frame having a sidewall extending circumferentially around the axis, and a bottom movable with respect to the frame from a closed position to an open position to open the basket and facilitate removal of debris.
MULTI-FUNCTION SPLASHLESS SPRAYHEAD
A fluid control valve includes a body, a first diverter, a second diverter, and a first actuator. The body includes an inlet configured to receive a supply of fluid. The first diverter is movable in a radial direction within the body between a first radial position and a second radial position. The second diverter is movable in a longitudinal direction within the body between a first longitudinal position and a second longitudinal position. The first actuator is operatively coupled to the first diverter and to the second diverter. The first actuator is configured to simultaneously move the first diverter between the first and second radial positions and the second diverter between the first and second longitudinal positions.
Kitchen sink sprayer
Kitchen sink sprayer, comprising a body provided at one end with a coupling to a flexible hose extending from a faucet for adjusting the flow-rate and connected at its other end to a water outflow plug having an axis inclined with respect to the water flow direction. The body comprises a rod that has at one end a tip adapted to open selectively the access of the water to at least one duct for forming a central jet and to at least one duct for forming a peripheral jet, and has means for actuation by the user. The means for actuation of the rod comprise a tab connected directly to the rod and protruding from the body's enclosure to an extent that is sufficient for contact gripping by the user, in a position located in proximity to the end for entry of the water into the sprayer.
Multi-function splashless sprayhead
A fluid control valve includes a body, a first diverter, a second diverter, and a first actuator. The body includes an inlet configured to receive a supply of fluid. The first diverter is movable in a radial direction within the body between a first radial position and a second radial position. The second diverter is movable in a longitudinal direction within the body between a first longitudinal position and a second longitudinal position. The first actuator is operatively coupled to the first diverter and to the second diverter. The first actuator is configured to simultaneously move the first diverter between the first and second radial positions and the second diverter between the first and second longitudinal positions.
Diverter valve assembly and shower system
A shower system and diverter valve assembly. The shower system includes two shower devices. The diverter valve assembly may include a pull diverter valve assembly coupled between a shower arm and a hand shower hose. In operation, by applying a force (e.g., a pulling force), the pull diverter valve assembly selectively directs water flow to the shower head or to the hand shower. The diverter valve assembly may include a toggle diverter valve assembly including a portion coupled to a hand shower.
MULTI-FUNCTION SPLASHLESS SPRAYHEAD
A fluid control valve includes a body, a first diverter, a second diverter, and a first actuator. The body includes an inlet configured to receive a supply of fluid. The first diverter is movable in a radial direction within the body between a first radial position and a second radial position. The second diverter is movable in a longitudinal direction within the body between a first longitudinal position and a second longitudinal position.
