Abstract: A pull-out faucet has a spray head with spray selection and pause control. A spring-loaded push button interrupts outlet spray entirely as long as it is being depressed. A rocker button controls spray through inner and outer sets of outlet orifices, for example, giving the user the option of an aerated water jet or an unaerated shower. The rocker button mounts on an integral pivot post of a valve body that houses a diverter valve that is controlled by the rocker button. The rocker button has a pair of legs that extend through openings in the valve body to engage a groove in the diverter valve. Pivoting the rocker button about a pivot axis by depressing either its forward or aft portion, moves the diverter valve along a valve axis to route flow to either the inner or outer orifices.

Abstract: The cylindrical drum of a mortar/plaster mixer is locked in the mixing position by a rotatable pivot arm pivotally attached by one end to an end wall of the drum such that, when the drum is in the mixing position, the arm may be rotated between a locked position with the free end of the arm in locking engagement with the mixer frame to an unlocked position with the arm rotationally displaced from the locking position. As the mixer drum is tilted for discharge, the unlocked arm is further pivotable from the rotationally displaced unlocked position back to the locked position in response to drum rotation from the mixing position to the discharge position and reverse rotation back to the mixing position.
