Abstract: A lid and seat assembly for a plumbing fixture includes a housing, a lid, and a seat. The housing includes a generally planar front surface and a generally planar rear surface. The lid is pivotably coupled to the housing. The seat is pivotably coupled to the housing. The front surface and the rear surface meet at a first edge located at a first end of the housing and at a second edge at a second end of the housing. The front surface, the rear surface, the first common edge, and the second common edge cooperatively define a continuous surface profile configured to facilitate single-wipe cleaning of the housing.

Abstract: Various apparatus and methods involve a showerhead that directs a stream of fluid through a portion of a cavity in a direct heat transfer relationship with a reflective surface prior to directing a stream out of the cavity and through a plurality of apertures toward a user. In an illustrative example, the user may view an image on the reflective surface while being sprayed with the plurality of streams in a steam filled environment. In some examples, the showerhead may include an inlet configured to direct the fluid toward the reflective surface as it enters the cavity. In some examples, the showerhead may operate to substantially reduce or prevent condensation from forming on the reflective surface by promoting heat transfer from the fluid to the reflective surface.

Abstract: A hardcover assembly arrangement including first and second hardcover assemblies, with each assembling including a layer of pressure sensitive adhesive disposed on a first surface of the hardcover assembly and additional pressure sensitive adhesive disposed on a second surface of the hardcover assembly, opposite the first surface. Each assembly includes a release liner disposed over and contacting the layer of pressure sensitive adhesive on the hardcover assembly, with the first and second hardcover assemblies being positioned relative to one another such that the release liner of the first hardcover assembly is disposed over and contacts the additional pressure sensitive adhesive of the second hardcover assembly.

Abstract: A bound book for displaying photographs and the like including a carrier sheet arrangement folded at least once to provide two carrier sheets separated by a fold and having respective dimensions similar a pair of display sheets, such as photographs, to be displayed. The display sheets are mounted on the respective carrier sheets by respective fastening layers. In one embodiment, the fastening layers include pressure sensitive adhesive and an associated support structure to prevent the pressure sensitive adhesive for adhering during assembly of the book when the display sheets are initially positioned over the fastening layers. The carrier sheet arrangement, display sheets and fastening layers are positioned within a cover assembly, with pressure then being applied to the cover assembly so as to activate the pressure sensitive adhesive and thereby secure the respective display sheets to the respective carrier sheets.

Abstract: A carrier assembly for use in binding a plurality of display sheets such as photographs and including a first and second carrier sheet arrangements, with each arrangement including a pair of carrier sheets separated by a fold, with the carrier sheets each having generally the same dimensions as the display sheets to be bound. The interior surfaces of the four sheets are covered by a layer of pressure sensitive adhesive, with each layer of adhesive being covered by a release liner and with an exterior surface of the two carrier sheet arrangements being secured together form a basic unitary structure that can be expanded upon. Four display sheets to be bound can then be positioned within the arrangements and over the respective release liners so that the liners can then be successively removed for accurate display sheet positioning.
