Abstract: Pressure compensators (1) for stabilizing a flow of water are disclosed. The pressure compensator (1) includes water compensating channels (3) formed on the outer periphery of their body (2), and flow orifices (4) passing through the pressure compensator (1), so that the water compensating channels and the flow orifices control the flow rate of the water at varying pressures. The body of the pressure compensator (1) preferably comprises a flexible material, such as rubber.
Abstract: Aeration devices for generating bubbles in a flow of water are disclosed including an aerator body (1), a diverter (3) including orifices (31) for receiving the flow of water, each of the orifices (31) including a decreasing pore size in the direction from the upper portion of the diverter (3b) towards the lower portion of the diverter (3a), and a lower body portion (2) including a water chamber (2a) for receiving and aerating the flow of water from the orifices (31) in the diverter (3). Aeration devices are also disclosed including a pressure compensator (6) mounted on the upper portion of the diverter (3b) for regulation of the maximum flow of water therethrough, the aerator body (1) including a ball joint opening (11) and a ball joint (12) mounted within the ball joint opening (11), the ball joint (12) comprising plastic and the upper ball joint (13) comprising metal.
Abstract: A multiple flow shower head (1) is disclosed including a body (Ia) for directing a flow of water, an outlet with a plurality of outlet channels (12a, 12b, 12c) corresponding to a plurality of water flow rates, a rotatable sheath (20) for switching the flow of water through a selected outlet channel, and a corresponding plurality of pressure compensators (3) disposed in the plurality of outlets channels in order to stabilize the flow of water at various flow rates.
