  • Publication number: 20180347165
    Abstract: Improvements in a tankless toilet flush system is disclosed. The Flush-All-Tankless device is disclosed in two versions: First version has the water output at the bottom that has an All-split-lock coupler joint assembly to connect it to urinals or some toilet bowls with no water tank mounting holes (like in many commercial toilet bowls). The second version has a factory built in All-Mounting-Base at the bottom to connect it to the remainder of toilet bowl systems on the market which includes all the toilet bowls with water tank mounting holes like in most residential toilet bowls. For those who prefer the porcelain look, an All porcelain cover can be used. This system eliminates the need for a water tank and can be used on toilet bowls with a wall mounted tanks used in many countries. This way the wall mounted tank can be completely eliminated.

  • Patent number: 10094098
    Abstract: Improvements in a toilet flush system where the flush is not determined only by a simple gravitational flow of the water tank content. The Flush-All provides a quick flush, as soon as the flush handle is released the flushing stops. There is no sticking of the flushing flapper, leaky flapper, leaky O-rings, sticky plungers, wasted water flow by improperly adjusted water level height as water continuously flows over the overfill tubing, or defects in the incoming water automatic shut off system or the noise that accompany such continuous flow. The Flush-All provides a universal design that can be used on most toilet bowls systems, a simple retrofitting procedure using a universal mounting base that is retrofitted to most existing toilet bowl. The only part to be replaced is the toilet tank. It is a quick and easy procedure that requires no structural damage or repair to the bathroom.

  • Patent number: 5324197
    Abstract: A portable power supply powers the light in a dental handpiece. The portable power supply includes a rechargeable battery for the electric power, and has connectors for connection to the handpiece and its fluid supply and exhaust. The connectors communicate with a manifold which has a port for connection of a pressure operated switch. The pressure operated switch operates the light so the light is illuminated only when the handpiece is operating.
