Abstract: A valve assembly of a faucet includes a valve body, a valve cartridge received within the valve body and including a valve stem defining a longitudinal axis, and a handle operably coupled to the valve stem of the valve cartridge. Illustratively, a spring biases splines of a valve stem adapter downwardly into engagement with splines of the valve stem.

Abstract: A valve assembly for a faucet includes a valve body, a valve cartridge received within the valve body and including a valve stem defining a longitudinal axis, a handle operably coupled to the valve stem of the valve cartridge, and a magnetic coupling operably coupled between the valve body and the handle. A spring biases the magnetic coupling downwardly toward the valve body, and biases the downwardly facing surface supported by the handle downwardly toward an upwardly facing surface supported by the valve body.

Abstract: A faucet including a spout having a passageway configured to receive water from a water source. An open chamber is coupled to the passageway. The open chamber extends from a first side of the spout to a second side of the spout. The second side is opposite the first side. A trough is disposed within the open chamber of the spout. The trough is configured to receive water from the passageway. A spillway is disposed within the open chamber of the spout. The spillway includes a crest coupled to the trough, the crest being configured to permit water in the trough to flow thereover. A chute wall is coupled to the crest, the chute wall being configured to receive water flowing over the crest. An outlet is defined by the chute wall at the second side of the spout, the outlet being configured to deliver water from the faucet.

Abstract: A sprayhead for dispensing water includes a housing and an illumination device supported by the housing. The illumination device includes a plurality of light emitters supported by a substrate, and a translucent light pipe defining a closed loop to diffuse light outwardly from the light emitters.

Abstract: A shower door enclosure has fixed and pivotable hinge halves which can be preinstalled to fixed and pivotable panels, respectively. One or both of the hinge halves can be adjusted at the installation site without hinge disassembly. In particular, each hinge half may be mounted to its respective panel via a fastener passing through the panel and into a floating bushing. The floating bushing is received in a seat formed in the body of the hinge half. The bushing and seat are shaped to prevent continuous rotation of the bushing within the seat, allowing the fastener to be tightened against the panel without requiring external access to the bushing. Upon assembly of the door panel to the adjacent fixed panel via the respective hinge halves, the bushings may be allowed to “float” laterally and vertically within the hinge bodies while the panels are adjusted to a proper orientation, and the fasteners may then be tightened to fix the panels in place.

Abstract: A fuel separator is disclosed having a hollow interior in which a tubular coiled heat exchanger is positioned to receive a coolant liquid therethrough. Fuel is fed into the chamber through a fuel inlet and pumped out of the chamber by a high pressure pump into the fuel distribution system of an internal combustion engine. Heated excess fuel from the fuel distribution system of an internal combustion engine is returned to the chamber through a fuel return inlet at the bottom of the chamber and the heated fuel passes upwardly through the coolant coil thereby cooling the heated return fuel. Fuel vapor that is not condensed as a result of cooling can escape from the chamber through a float needle valve at the top of the chamber. A pressure relief valve is also provided at the top of the chamber to allow the vapor to escape when a predetermined internal pressure is reached.
