Abstract: A pushbutton device that will stop the flow of water to the showerhead by closing a valve after the hot and cold water is mixed to the desired temperature and water force. This button will operate a simple “push-to-open/push-to-close” valve, which will interrupt the water flow to the showerhead. The button will be clearly marked PAUSE, and will be visible to the user. While the button will highly visible to the user, it will be mounted in low relief to the wall, with smooth and rounded surface and edges, and will not pose a danger to the user in the event of a slip in the shower. This invention is meant to enable the user to instantly change the amount of water used for showering, by allowing the user to immediately stop the water flow and re-start the flow, without the need to re-adjust the water temperature and water force. Once the temperature is set and the water force is achieved the user will able to stop and start the water without having to reset.

Abstract: The present invention provides a firefighting system using a boom truck for delivering fire suppressant fluid to remote areas in burning structures. The system includes a fluid delivery conduit having a distal end fitted with a nozzle that discharges fluid in a 360 degree arc perpendicular to the direction of the conduit. The nozzle is constructed using a first disk with a central opening, and a second disk attached in spaced relationship having a curved conical projection that extends back through the central opening in the first disk. A third disk with a conical forwardly extending projection is attached to the second disk. When the conical projection is forced through a window on a building wall section, fluid is discharged to otherwise inaccessible areas in the building and harmful gases are simultaneously vented from the building.
