  • Patent number: 7313834
    Abstract: A bathtub water tap includes a tap body, a fluid control device, a showerhead hose and a showerhead. The tap body has a hose passage and a water passage. The water passage has an outlet and an inlet for transporting water diverted by the fluid control device. The hose passage has a socket hole and a through hole. The showerhead hose is slidably mounted in the hose passage and has two opposite ends respectively connected to the showerhead and the fluid control device. The showerhead has an inside end held in the socket hole of the hose passage to position the showerhead with the tap body. Consequently, additional installations of the showerhead are not required. The showerhead will not occupy bathroom space, and the appearance of the entire water tap is tidy and clean.

  • Patent number: 6925662
    Abstract: A diverter spout has a drain pipe, a connecting sleeve, an offset shaft, a resilient element between the drain pipe and the offset shaft, a pole for manual operation, a supporting sleeve and an envelope. At least a leakproof rubber ring is mounted around the offset shaft. Due to interferential friction between the leakproof rings and the connecting sleeve or the supporting sleeve and water pressure, a blocking portion of the offset shaft controls the water to flow only through a spout. In normal state, the resilient element overcomes interferential friction between the leakproof rings and the connecting sleeve or the supporting sleeve and controls the water to flow only through a drain opening of the drainpipe. Therefore, water diverts reliably without leakage.
