The present invention provides a flush water tank device (4) that supplies flush water to an upper and lower spout port of a flush toilet (2) including; a flush water tank (10); a discharge valve (12); a first on-off valve (19) that performs switching between ejection and stopping of the flush water from the upper spout port; a first on-off valve driving mechanism (16) that is moved from a stopped position to an ejection position based on an user operation; a biasing mechanism (17) that causes the first on-off valve driving mechanism to move to the stopped position; a holding mechanism (20) that holds, at the ejection position, the first on-off valve driving mechanism at the ejection position against the bias force; and a releasing mechanism (21) that releases the holding of the first on-off valve driving mechanism, using the flush water flowing out from the first on-off valve.

A tank assembly for a pressure-assist toilet includes a flush assembly having an outer chamber and an inner chamber disposed in the outer chamber. The flush assembly further includes a flush valve disposed in the inner chamber, and a pilot valve disposed in the inner chamber and extending through the flush valve. The tank assembly further includes an actuator engaging the pilot valve and configured to hold the pilot valve at each of a first height, a second height offset a first distance from the first height, and a third height offset a second distance from the first height greater than a first distance.

The invention relates to a dual-discharge tank for toilets, including a tank, a water inlet having controlling means which are activated depending on the volume of water contained in the tank, a discharge mechanism coupled to a drainage collector, and means for actuating the discharge mechanism. The tank also includes an additional water inlet connected to a timed valve for controlling water flow, which automatically cuts off the flow of water through said inlet after a predetermined time has elapsed since the actuation thereof. The outlet of the timed valve for controlling water flow is connected to a first pipe that directs the additional water toward the drainage collector.

An optical system includes one or several passive optical detectors sensitive to ambient (room) light for controlling, for example, the operation of automatic faucets or automatic bathroom flushers. The passive optical sensors provide signals to flow controllers, including control electronics and flow valves and require only very small amounts of electrical power for sensing users of bathroom facilities, and thus enable battery operation for many years. To control the operation of automatic faucets or automatic bathroom flushers based on ambient light, the controller executes novel algorithms.

A water delivery system includes a water input port, a control circuit, and a valve device. The water input port is constructed to be coupled to a water conduit receiving water from a remotely located water source. The valve device includes an actuator located near and connected to the water input port; wherein the valve device is constructed to receive control signals from the controller for providing water to a water delivery unit. The controller may be battery operated. The actuator may be a latching actuator, a non-latching actuator, or an isolated latching actuator. The controller may include a microcontroller coupled and to a sensor. The system may include a communication interface constructed and arranged to provide data to the microcontroller. The control circuit may include a power consumption controller. The control circuit includes a voltage regulator.
