  • Patent number: 4589688
    Abstract: A plumbing hookup kit for making water supply connections between any of numerous different fittings such as faucet shanks, toilet tank fill valve shanks, and valve, coupling and adapter compression and slip fittings in 3/8", 7/16" and 1/2" sizes. The kit includes a length of supply tubing with an annular terminal attached to each end, together with a seal ring adapted to encircle each terminal. With smaller fitting sizes, the seal ring and terminal effect a fluid tight connection in cooperation with the fitting and its associated coupling nut. Adaptor sleeves of different sizes and different configurations cooperate with the terminal and seal ring to effect a fluid tight seal with larger fittings and associated coupling nuts of either the compression or slip type.

  • Patent number: 4499616
    Abstract: A flush valve for use with a toilet tank assembly having a flush outlet surrounded by a valve seat, an overflow pipe, and a lift arm movable to initiate flow through the valve seat includes a one piece integral body of molded plastic material. The valve body includes a float fabricated on one end that is aligned with the valve seat to control flow therethrough. An integral beam is fabricated at another end of the body. The float and beam are interconnected by planar portions of the body. A mounting collar is also integrally formed on another planar portion of the body extending from the beam to the collar. The collar may be mounted on the overflow pipe to secure the valve to the toilet tank assembly. An elongated lift strap integrally fabricated with the body extends from the float member and includes a tooth structure for attachment to the lift arm.
