Building panels comprising a locking device
Building panels including a first and a second panel and including a locking device. The locking device includes a tongue and an edge groove provided in the second panel and the first panel, respectively, wherein the tongue and the edge groove are configured to cooperate with each other for locking a first edge portion of the first panel to a second edge portion of the second panel in a first direction. The locking device further includes a separate tongue provided in an insertion groove and a tongue groove configured to cooperate with each other for locking the first edge portion to the second edge portion in a second direction. A length of the tongue groove along an edge portion may be smaller than a length of the edge portion. A length of the insertion groove along an edge portion may be smaller than the length of the edge portion.
Shower Assembly with Integrated Water Collection and Dispersion
A shower unit having an integrated locking system for ease of installation and preferably including a channel, baffling system, the retention cavity system that in combination to collect and direct fluid away from support walls and to a collection area.
Shower enclosure system
A shower enclosure comprises a plurality of prefabricated panels that are arranged to at least partially surround a space for bathing. At least one of the panels is a layered structure having a first layer, a second layer, and a third layer. The first layer forms an interior surface of the shower enclosure exposed to the space for bathing. The third layer is arranged between the first layer and the second layer, and is coupled to the first layer and the second layer. The layered structure is a sandwich structured composite comprising the first layer, second layer, and third layer.
Shower storage systems
A storage system for a shower enclosure includes a first wall member, a second wall member, and a storage accessory. The first wall member includes a corner defining a recessed portion. The first wall member further includes a corner notch disposed along the corner within the recessed portion, and a first side notch disposed along an inner side surface of the first wall member adjacent the recessed portion. The second wall member is coupled to the first wall member at an end of the corner adjacent the recessed portion and is oriented perpendicular to the first wall member. The second wall member includes a second side notch disposed along an inner side surface of the second wall member. The storage accessory is removably coupled between the first wall member and the second wall member at the corner notch, the first side notch, and the second side notch.
Connection structure of shower column system
A connection structure of shower column systems includes fixing member, shower column body having containing cavity, connecting pipe communicating with water supply pipe, and hose in the containing cavity. The shower column body includes installation part having movement channel communicating with the containing cavity; the installation part is installed on the fixing member; the connecting pipe is in wall, an end thereof passes the movement channel to move axially; the hose communicates with water inlet of the shower column body and passes the movement channel to communicate with the connecting pipe. Flexible connection through the hose and connecting pipe makes more adjustment room than rigid connection. Distance between the connecting pipe and shower column body is adjusted by moving the connecting pipe in the movement channel. System adjustment and installation are quickly completed according to different depths of water supply pipes. Sealing performance of products wouldn't be influenced during adjusting.
Shower enclosure design and assembly methods using prefabricated shower benches
Methods and apparatus for creating a shower or bath enclosure, in which, given a predetermined area in which to create the shower or bath, a given prefabricated water proof bath or shower floor module is too small to occupy the entire available enclosure space. The apparatus includes the use of one or more additional enclosure components, such as one or more shower benches, to occupy a space between an edge or edges of the floor module and the exterior boundary(ies) of the enclosure space.
BUILDING PANELS COMPRISING A LOCKING DEVICE
Building panels including a first and a second panel and including a locking device. The locking device includes a tongue and an edge groove provided in the second panel and the first panel, respectively, wherein the tongue and the edge groove are configured to cooperate with each other for locking a first edge portion of the first panel to a second edge portion of the second panel in a first direction. The locking device further includes a separate tongue provided in an insertion groove and a tongue groove configured to cooperate with each other for locking the first edge portion to the second edge portion in a second direction. A length of the tongue groove along an edge portion may be smaller than a length of the edge portion. A length of the insertion groove along an edge portion may be smaller than the length of the edge portion.
BATHROOM FIXTURES AND COMPONENTS
A toilet installed in a bathroom includes a toilet bowl and a tank coupled to the toilet bowl. The tank can contain fluid for the toilet bowl. A rear surface of the tank is flush against a wall of the bathroom such that there is no gap between the tank and the wall and a bottom surface of the tank is flush against a floor of the bathroom such that there is no gap between the tank and the floor. The tank extends longitudinally above and below the toilet bowl and laterally outward past the toilet bowl such that a first side surface and a second side surface of the tank define outermost side peripheries of the toilet.
PIVOTABLE DUAL SHOWERHEAD WITH MULTIPLE SPRAY MODES
A showerhead includes an inlet configured to receive water from the supply conduit. An inner spray portion is coupled to the inlet. A first spray outlet is coupled to the inner spray portion, and the first spray outlet selectively receives water from the inlet and discharges water from the showerhead in a first discharge direction. An outer spray portion is pivotally coupled to the inner spray portion. A second spray outlet is coupled to the outer spray portion, and the second spray outlet selectively receives water from the inlet and discharges water from the showerhead in a second discharge direction. A third spray outlet is coupled to the outer spray portion, and the third spray outlet selectively receives water from the inlet and discharges water from the showerhead in a third discharge direction. The third discharge direction is substantially opposite the second discharge direction.
INTERLOCKING SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR TILE PANEL MOUNTING
Interlocking systems that mechanically secure tile panels to a supporting structure are enabled. For example, a panel mounting apparatus can comprise: a panel material comprising a first side and a second side, opposite the first side, a substrate material attached to the second side of the panel material, a fastening track attached to the second side of the panel material, adjacent to the substrate material, a mounting clip attached to the fastening track on a first side of the mounting clip, wherein the mounting clip comprises a projection from a second side of the mounting clip, opposite the first side, and a receiving body comprising locking channel that receives the projection, wherein an internal shape of the locking channel compliments an internal shape of the projection.
