Abstract: A multifunctional spray head assembly and methods of operating the same. The spray head assembly includes a body, a switch, and a spray diverter assembly. The body defines a plurality of channels, including an inlet channel and at least three outlet channels. The switch is configured to be coupled with the spray diverter assembly such that linear movement of the switch translate to rotational movement of a shutter of the spray diverter assembly. The shutter diverts water into one of the outlet channels, which results in the spray head assembly dispensing water out of one of several discrete outlets.

Abstract: The present application relates generally to faucets. More specifically, this application relates to directionally adjustable faucets, where at least two parallel rotational interfaces between components allow the faucet to pivot, rotate, spin, or move. A directionally adjustable primary or beverage faucet can include a first base section coupled to a second base section, a base rotational interface disposed between the first and second base sections along a first plane, a plurality of conduit segments coupled to the second base section, and at least one conduit rotational interface disposed between the plurality of conduit segments along a second plane. The base rotational interface can be configured to actuate the second base section relative to the first base section. The at least one conduit rotational interface can be configured to actuate the plurality of conduit segments relative to each other. The second plane can be parallel with the first plane.

Abstract: A faucet configured for single-hole installation includes a center within which a connector body defining hot and cold water inlets and an outlet is supported. A pair of side bodies are attached to the center body about opposite sides of the center body. Bridges including flow paths extend between and connect each side body to the center body. A valve supported within the first side body fluidly couples the hot water inlet with the outlet via the flow path of the first bridge responsive to rotation of a handle supported by the first side body. A valve supported within the second side body fluidly couples the cold water inlet with the outlet via the flow path of the second bridge responsive to rotation of a handle supported by the second side body.
