Abstract: A valve assembly includes a slider controlling the water flow through the valve assembly and having a variably sized outer dimension. The slider has opposite ends, one of which receives a removable stop, whereas the other end is enlarged to form a flange arresting displacement of the slider in a predetermine position.

Abstract: An adjustable mount for removable attaching a showerhead to a water supply pipe includes a mounting bracket made of resilient material and having a mounting flange which is sized and shaped to clamp the water supply pipe upon applying an external force. The adjustable mount further includes a holder for the showerhead and an attaching assembly for releasably attaching the holder to the mounting bracket. The attaching assembly has a knob formed on either the holder or the mounting bracket frictionally engaging a recess formed on the other element. Upon inserting the knob in the recess, the bracket and the holder are displaceable relative to one another between a release position, wherein they are freely detachable, and a series of locking positions, wherein their displacement is arrested upon ceasing an external torque.

Abstract: A retractable sprayer hose installation kit for use with a faucet assembly has a connector attachable to a discharge opening of the faucet assembly and traversed by a flexible hose, a free end of which is inserted into a spout, an a proximal end traverses a bushing which provides connection between the hose and a hand-held spray head. The connector receives a fitting which is recessed to form a seat for a stopper attachable to the proximal end of the flexible hose and engaging the seat in a retracted position of the spray head. The kit further has a bushing releasably engaging the spray head and dimensioned to provide the spray head and the hose with simultaneous displacement between the retracted and extended positions of the spray head.

Abstract: A spray assembly includes a spray director having a formation on its inner peripheral wall and a dispersal plate provided with an array of bent legs which are formed on the plate's edge and resiliently engage the formation to lock the dispersal plate in place upon it insertion in the spray director.

Abstract: A universal-fit replacement flange and handle set includes a template formed with an easily torn apart material and having a pair of lugs which have free ends with pre-punched holes spaced at a distance from one another. The set further includes mounting brackets, each having opposite ends formed with openings and pivotally mounted on the lug by its one end to pivot in a position, wherein the other end is attached to a support surface. The set has a flange and handle assembly having a pair of recesses spaced at a distance equal to the distance between the pre-punched holes. The recesses are aligned with the pre-punched holes and are traversed by fasteners attaching the flange and handle assembly to the brackets upon removing the template. The set further includes an adapter enabling adjustment of a handle of the flange and handle assembly with respect to the support surface.

Abstract: A kit for installing a bath spout onto any one of a number of different pipe ends extending from a wall is described and includes a number of adapters sized to enable different pipe ends to be coupled into a standard screw thread of internal conduit inside the bath spout. One adapter enables the screw thread of a pipe end to be effectively enlarged. Another adapter slips onto the smooth outer surface of a pipe and makes a sealing contact with this surface while having one end provided with an enlarged external screw thread to mesh with a corresponding screw thread of a conduit inside the bath spout. An inner conduit is described which in one embodiment is made of a number of inter-connectable segments with which the length of the inner conduit can be adjusted and in another embodiment the inner conduit is formed of a single unitary structure with a several screw threads at a distal end to be able to adjust the length of the inner conduit with the removal of the distal thread.
