Patent number: 12569061Abstract: Disclosed are a control device and a sanitary equipment. The control device comprises: a back plate and an outer plate, the outer plate is provided with a deformation control area, a circuit board is arranged between the outer plate and the back plate, a controller and a pressure sensor in communication connection with the controller are arranged on the circuit board, and the pressure sensor is arranged behind the deformation control area. The pressure sensor is arranged in the deformation control area, so that the pressure sensor detects deformation of the deformation control area, thus realizing control by pressing. Since the deformation control area is arranged on the outer plate, etching a key on other parts of the sanitary equipment may be avoided, and damage to other parts may be avoided, thus saving costs. The pressure-sensitive key is waterproof and dustproof, and has a long service life.Type: GrantFiled: February 3, 2023Date of Patent: March 10, 2026Assignee: Kohler (China) Investment Co.Inventors: Dewang Yao, Feipeng Lv

Publication number: 20250271128Abstract: In one embodiment, the present disclosure is directed to a bathroom mirror lighting system comprising a mirror, a light source, a sensor, and a control circuit operably coupled to the light source and the sensor. The control circuit receives a sensor signal from the sensor indicative of at least one of a user's distance from the sensor, a user's position, a user's posture, a motion of the user towards or away from the sensor, or a task being performed by the user. The control circuit then transmits a control signal to the light source causing the light source to alter its light output based on the sensor signal from the sensor.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 6, 2025Publication date: August 28, 2025Inventors: Douglas J. Diemel, Feipeng LV, Yanxiong ZHUANG, Haichao SUN, Qiuyue LIU, Linan HAN, Kor Han Chew, Yingying XU, Yuan GAO, Fan HUANG, Wendong ZHU, Danni GU, Mark Schibur, Maxwell Wasscher, Steve Hammond, Jesse Lemel, Margaret Mazz, Pete Kajuch, Erin Lilly, Megan Wehmeier, Katie Stevens, Katerina Revelis, Shawn Booth, Matthew Wegner, Alexander V.

Patent number: 12331543Abstract: A handle structure includes a first handle body, a second handle body, and a transparent plate. The first handle body includes a first handle portion and a first connecting portion. The second handle body includes a second handle portion and a second connecting portion. The first handle body and the second handle body are hollow. The first connecting portion is detachably connected with the second connecting portion when the first handle body and the second handle body are in an installed position. The transparent plate is within and sealingly connected with the first connecting portion and the second connecting portion when the first handle body and the second handle body are in the installed position.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 2022Date of Patent: June 17, 2025Assignee: Kohler (China) Investment Co., Ltd.Inventors: Kun He, Zhongpeng Zha, Feipeng Lv, Kaixian Yang, Xin Liu, Yongde Tang
