Abstract: A showerhead having a plurality of nozzle groups for dispensing water in a plurality of spray patterns, and a selector for selecting one or more of the nozzle groups for dispensing water or for pausing flow from the showerhead. When the selector is configured to pause flow from the showerhead a minimum flow is provided to each of the plurality of nozzle groups.

Abstract: A water leak detection system including a leak detector and a wall bracket with an integral or removable remote probe that can be positioned remotely from the leak detector. The leak detector is configured to electrically couple with the remote probe when mechanically coupled with the wall bracket, requiring no further user interaction to activate the probe. The wall bracket can include multiple remote probes that each electrically couple with the leak detector when the leak detector is mechanically coupled to the wall bracket, any one of the remote probes capable of triggering the leak detector when a leak occurs.

Abstract: A lockable hinge assembly for a blade guard includes a first hinge member secured to a first blade guard portion and a second hinge member secured to a second blade guard portion and rotatably secured to the first hinge member. A lock mechanism is provided so as to lock the second hinge member in a predetermined rotational orientation relative to the first hinge member. As such, the second hinge member and second blade guard portion can be locked in a predetermined position relative to the first hinge member and first blade guard portion, respectively.

Abstract: A green concrete saw that allows for precise adjustment of a height of a circular saw blade is provided. The saw provides for the circular saw blade to be secured to a front end of a mainframe mounted on an undercarriage. A major height adjustment is performed by adjusting the height of the mainframe relative to the undercarriage. Further, the undercarriage supports wheels for the saw, and a fine height adjustment is performed by adjusting the height of a front end of the undercarriage relative to the ground through the use of an eccentric front axle.

Abstract: An adjustable handle assembly for a road surface cutting saw is provided that includes a back plate attached to the saw housing, an outer gear attached to the back plate, a bracket assembly including an inner gear, a tubular member slidably attached to the bracket assembly, and an adjustment lever having a threaded engagement end. The adjustment lever secures the bracket assembly to the saw such that the inner gear engages the outer gear. When the adjustment lever is loosened a bias spring biases the bracket assembly away from the saw such that the inner gear disengages from the outer gear to thereby allow rotation of the handle assembly to a desired operating position.

Abstract: A floor or road saw (20) that includes a multi-speed transmission (24) that includes a neutral position. The transmission does not require the use of belts, polychains, or clutches that require regular maintenance and/or replacement. Moreover, the transmission (24) of the saw (20) may be shifted when the transmission is engaged and shifted through a set of gears (62) in a sequential manner. Further, the transmission is well suited for use on saws where power source or prime mover (22) is disposed parallel to the longitudinal axis of the saw (20).

Abstract: A clutch retaining device for use in a clutch collar and clutch assembly. The clutch retaining device includes multiple cover clips which extend downwardly from the cover and have a substantial L-shape. The clutch collar has corresponding cover clip notches which correspond to the cover clips of the clutch collar cover. The clutch collar assembly includes a first and second clutch collar cover. The entire assembly includes a series of drive springs and drive pins which are compressed in place by the first and second clutch collar covers. A method for assembling the clutch collar assembly is also included. The method includes the steps of inserting drive pins into drive springs into drive pin receptors, aligning cover clips of a clutch cover with cover clip notches on a clutch collar, and connecting the clutch cover to the clutch collar and thereby depressing the drive pins and the drive springs.
