Flush valve
A flush valve includes a valve housing defining a fluid passageway between a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet. The fluid passageway includes a diaphragm valve seat disposed between the fluid inlet and the fluid outlet. The flush valve additionally includes a diaphragm assembly including a diaphragm and a disc. The diaphragm includes a primary opening and a bypass opening. The primary opening receives the disc therein and the bypass opening allowing water under pressure supplied to the fluid inlet to pass from a fluid inlet side of the diaphragm into a chamber in the fluid passageway. The flush valve additionally includes a relief valve configured to selectively control fluid flow from the chamber to the fluid outlet. The relief valve comprises a stationary valve element and a rotatable valve element each having at least one opening and being rotationally positionable relative to one another to regulate fluid flow.

Automatic excretion disposal device and building
Provided is an automatic excretion disposal device (1) which is configured to automatically perform an excretion disposal of a person (P) to be cared, the device including: a cup (2) which is attached to a body of the person to be cared to receive excretion; a detection unit (3) which is configured to detect excretion in the cup; a feed water pipe which is configured to decompress cleaning water from a water supply (W) to a predetermined pressure and directly supplies the cleaning water, on the basis of detection result of the detection unit; a suction motor (30) which is configured to suck sewage generated when the body and inside of the cup are cleaned with the cleaning water supplied from the feed water pipe (R1), and to discharge the sewage to outside of the cup; a tank (10) which is configured to temporarily store the drainage sucked by the suction motor; and a drainage pump (20) which is configured to cause the drainage to forcibly flow out to a drainage piping connected to a sewer or a septic tank, while pulverizing solid matters contained in drainage in which the sewage stored in the tank is mixed with the cleaning water directly supplied from the feed water pipe.

Tank For Toilet Flushing System and Manufacturing Method
A tank for a pressure-assist toilet flush system includes a base having an outlet for discharging water from the tank and a cover connected to the upper end of the base at a tongue-and-groove joint. The base has a pair of first sidewalls extending downward from the upper end of the base along a length of the base, a pair of second sidewalls extending between the first sidewalls and downward from the upper end of the base, and a bottom wall connected to the first sidewalls and the second sidewalls, with the outlet defined in the bottom wall. The base also includes first and second cross-ribs connected to the first sidewalls and each having a bridge portion extending between the first sidewalls on opposite sides of the outlet, the first and second cross-ribs each having an opening between a bottom edge of the bridge portion and the bottom wall.

FLUSH TOILET
A flush toilet includes a toilet main body made of ceramics, a control unit, a supply source that enables water supply or power supply to the control unit, and a flexible elongated member connecting the supply source and the control unit. The toilet main body includes a rear storage configured to store at least a part of the control unit. The rear storage includes an upper storage region, a lower region, and a lower communication region. The flexible elongated member extends from an upper connecting end portion toward a lower connecting end portion, to be inserted from the upper storage region into the lower communication region, and then extends from inside of the lower communication region to outside of the toilet main body, without extending through the lower region.

DRAINAGE SYSTEM FOR PRESSURE-ASSISTED FLUSH WATER TANK
A drainage system for a pressure-assisted flush water tank includes a tank main body and a drainage structure. The drainage structure includes an accommodating chamber and a membrane. The accommodating chamber has a drain outlet, a water inlet, and a drainpipe. The membrane partitions the accommodating chamber into a back-pressure chamber and a drainage chamber and is provided with a supplement hole that communicates the back-pressure chamber with the drainage chamber. The drain outlet is communicated with the back-pressure chamber, while the water inlet and the drainpipe are both communicated with the drainage chamber. The tank main body defines therein a storage chamber communicated with the water inlet. The membrane moves toward or departs from the drainpipe as a pressure in the back-pressure chamber varies so as to close or open the drainpipe.
