  • Patent number: 6974118
    Abstract: An automatic flush actuation apparatus, which is incorporated with a flushing system having a water inlet, a water outlet, and a water chamber communicating therebetween, that includes a valve member being moved by a flush lever for releasing the water pressure within the water chamber to allow the water passing from the water inlet to the water outlet, and a sensor-operated powering assembly including a relief valve provided at the valve member for controlling the water flowing to the water outlet and an actuator arranged in such a manner that while sensing a presence of a user of the flushing system, the actuator is driven to move the relief valve to an opened position for releasing the water pressure within the water chamber to allow the water passing to said water outlet.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 3, 2004
    Date of Patent: December 13, 2005
    Assignee: Advanced Modern Technologies, Corp.

  • Patent number: 6879320
    Abstract: An auto-control display device for incorporating with a lavatory system in a service area such as a lavatory, includes a sensor for sensing a use of the lavatory system, a display unit which is interacted with the sensor and is placed at an eye viewing location within the service area, and an information center, which is connected between a power source and the display unit, for storing at least an electronic information, wherein when the sensor detects the use of the lavatory system, the information center automatically activates the display unit to display the electronic information, and when the sensor detects that the use of the lavatory system is completed, the display unit is automatically deactivated by the information center.
