Methods and Systems for Plumbing Fixture Installations
A modular plumbing system having one or more carriers each attached to a carrier mount that may be joined to one or more base rails. The modular plumbing system may be transported to a construction site fully assembled and ready to be installed by anchoring the plumbing system to a floor and connecting plumbing lines within the plumbing system to existing plumbing lines.
WALL-MOUNTED WATER CLOSET CARRIER ASSEMBLY
A water closet carrier assembly for mounting a water closet having an outlet to a plurality of wall members includes a faceplate having a central portion extending in a widthwise direction between a first side and a second side, and a water closet outlet opening configured to align with an outlet of the water closet, a first side portion coupled to the central portion at the first side, the first side portion including a first side portion mounting aperture, and a second side portion coupled to the central portion at the second side, the second side portion including a second side portion mounting aperture. The water closet carrier assembly also includes first and second fasteners configured to couple the first and second side portions, respectively, to first and second wall members, respectively, of the plurality of wall members. The faceplate is supported solely by the plurality of wall members.
WASTE SYSTEM OF HEIGHT-ADJUSTABLE TOILET
A waste system of a height adjustable toilet comprising a fixed frame with a vertically mounted sliding plate thereon, wherein the waste system comprises a piping system with a series connected upper pipe, an upper elbow, a connecting pipe, a lower elbow, and a lower pipe, wherein the upper sleeve is fixed to the sliding plate and the lower sleeve is attached to the fixed frame, the upper elbow on the upper sleeve and the lower elbow on the lower sleeve being seated freely pivotable about their axial axes and the connecting pipe being made of elastically flexible material.
Dual-jet toilet
A toilet includes a bowl having an opening, an outlet, and two jet holes positioned above a water line defined by a weir of a trapway. The two jet holes are configured to evacuate waste from the bowl into a drain.
LIGATURE-RESISTANT TOILET SYSTEM WITH ADAPTABLE SHROUD
A toilet system with a toilet base including a toilet bowl and a shroud for covering a plumbing riser located at a rear end of the toilet base that provides ligature-resistance for institutional applications. The shroud has a mating feature that joins with a corresponding feature at a rear portion of the toilet base to prevent formation of a gap between the base and a front of shroud in at least at a top side of the area of contact between the shroud and the back of the toilet base. The mating feature can be provided by forming a rectangular cross-section at the rear of the toilet base and providing a matching aperture through the shroud. A toilet seat, which may be bonded or bolted to toilet base has an outer edge that is chamfered to prevent ligature formation around a portion of toilet seat.
COMBINED SHOWER AND TOILET
A combined shower and toilet arrangement 10 comprises a shower, comprising: a shower fluid outputting arrangement 12; and a shower floor 14; and: a toilet 16, comprising a receiving area 19 for receiving human waste; wherein the combined shower and toilet arrangement is operable in a shower use mode or a toilet use mode, wherein, in the toilet use mode, the shower floor is in a position that does not obstruct use of the toilet, and is in a non-use position, not usable as a floor for the shower; and in the shower use mode, the shower floor 14 is in a shower use position, above a portion or a whole of the receiving area of the toilet 16, and is usable as a floor for the shower.
WALL ANCHOR
A wall anchor (1), having an anchor plate (2) with a front face (3) and a rear face (4), a fixing portion (5) which protrudes from the front face (4) of the anchor plate (2), which extends along a centre axis (M) and has a threaded structure (6) for receiving an anchor bolt (7), and two hooks (8, 9) which protrude from the rear face (4) of the anchor plate (2). The hooks (8, 9) are configured such that the wall anchor (1) can be fixedly connected to a profile rail (18) by protrusions (21) of a profile rail (18), with respect to forces acting in the direction of the centre axis (M).
PRESSURE-ASSIST FLUSH TOILET
A pressure-assist toilet assembly comprising a bowl; and a pressure tank assembly, wherein the pressure tank assembly is configured to be positioned in a bathroom wall cavity upon installation of the toilet assembly. The bowl may comprise an access space at an underside of the bowl, and/or may comprise a utility port positioned on a side of the bowl, configured to allow a bidet seat to be fluidly coupled to an in-wall water source and/or electrically coupled to an in-wall electric source. The assembly may comprise an in-wall support structure, the in-wall support structure configured to be removed from a bathroom wall cavity to provide access to a pressure tank assembly.
HEIGHT-ADJUSTABLE TOILET ASSEMBLY
A height-adjustable toilet assembly comprising a fixed frame with a vertically mounted sliding frame and a toilet bowl, wherein the sliding frame is coupled to the fixed frame by a vertical linear drive member and is provided with a face plate on which the intermediate member is mounted. A flat cover is fixed to the fixed frame, in which a window is formed from below which is not closed, the width of which corresponds to the width of the intermediate member and the inner edges of which extend towards the intermediate member over the peripheral edges of the face plate of the sliding frame, in front of which the flat cover is projected, the toilet bowl being seated on the intermediate member. In the lower end part of the fixed frame there are vertically interconnected horizontal slats with surfaces parallel to the surface of the face plate, the first slat being attached to the lower edge of the sliding frame. The intermediate member is fitted with supports, to the upper edge of which is attached a rod-type horizontal arm parallel to the faceplate, the ends of the rod-type horizontal arm being fitted with handles extending along the toilet bowl.
MOUNTING SYSTEM FOR SANITARY FITTINGS
A mounting system for fastening a sanitary fitting comprises a mounting frame having at least one hollow profile, the side walls of which define an internal space, and which frame has an end face at the end thereof, and having at least one bearing structure for mounting a sanitary fitting, and at least one fastening unit having a support element which comprises a guide receptacle, and having a fastening tab which is mounted in the guide receptacle so as to be able to slide relative to the support element from a starting position into a mounting position, wherein the support element can be inserted in the internal space of the hollow profile, and wherein, in the mounting position, the fastening tab extends out of the guide receptacle and out of the internal space beyond the end face of the hollow profile.
