Patent number: 8757518Abstract: A water-saving valve assembly has a base, a control valve device and a buffer device. The control valve device is mounted in the base. The water-saving valve assembly is mounted on an exit of a water pipe. Users can control the flowing out or stopping of water in the water pipe via the control valve device. The buffer device provides a gradual effect of switching off and can effectively reduce positive and negative pressure waves generated in the water pipe. Noises and damage to the water pipe are also prevented.Type: GrantFiled: February 12, 2010Date of Patent: June 24, 2014Assignee: Highplus International Co., Ltd.Inventors: Chih-Hung Kao, Yu-Yueh Kao

Patent number: 8028356Abstract: A water controlling valve includes an outer sheet, an end cap and a control valve group. The control valve group is disposed between a flowing bore in the outer sheet and a water bore in the end cap. The water controlling valve is connected with the outlet of a water tube. When the control valve group is pushed upwards, the water bore in the end cap and the flowing bore in the outer sheet are closed in a predetermined sequence, then the water in the tube will not flow out. When the control valve group is pushed downwards, the flowing bore in the outer sheet and the water bore in the end cap are opened, then the water will flow out. When the water is stopped, the occurring positive or negative pressure wave is lowered, and then the vibration and the raspy noise will be avoided.Type: GrantFiled: March 16, 2006Date of Patent: October 4, 2011Assignee: Highplus International Co., LtdInventors: Yu-Yueh Kao, Chih-Hung Kao

Patent number: 7677473Abstract: A spout for foaming and saving water has a shell, a foaming assembly mounted in the shell, a sieving assembly mounted on a faucet end of the foaming assembly and a regulator mounted through the foaming assembly. The foaming assembly has a sleeve, a distributor mounted in the sleeve, a foaming ring mounted between the sleeve and the distributor and an inlet valve mounted on a faucet end of the sleeve. The spout is mounted on an outlet of a faucet to allow water to flow through the sieving assembly and the foaming assembly and mix with air to foam to provide foaming water flowing out of the spout. Impurities in the water do not clog the foam assembly and water flow is regulated with the regulator selectively mounted in a water flow hole of the inlet valve.Type: GrantFiled: December 28, 2007Date of Patent: March 16, 2010Assignee: Highplus International Co., Ltd.Inventor: Yu-Yueh Kao

Publication number: 20090112242Abstract: An ear curette has a shaft and a cleaning portion. The shaft has a distal end. The cleaning portion has a disk and a bar. The bar has a distal end and a proximal end. The proximal end of the bar is narrower than, is formed on and protrudes from distal end of the shaft. The disk is formed on the distal end of the bar. When in use, the disk of the cleaning portion can be deposited in the ear canal first and then pulled out of the ear canal to scrape out earwax and is easily cleanable.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 21, 2008Publication date: April 30, 2009Applicant: HIGHPLUS INTERNATIONAL CO., LTD.Inventor: Yu-Yueh KAO

Patent number: 7143997Abstract: A plug assembly for a faucet includes a casing adapted for engagement with the faucet, a cylinder securely received in the casing and having an isolator having a tapered through hole defined through the isolator and slits to communicate with the outlets of the cylinder, a top ring supported by the cylinder to sandwich the isolator with the cylinder, wherein the top ring has a hole defined through a bottom face of the top ring. A control rod is slidably received in the tapered through hole of the isolator and the hole of the top ring. A push rod is securely connected to the control rod to sandwich a friction ring with the control rod. An adjusting device is provided to adjust deformation of the friction ring such that the engagement of the friction ring to the inner periphery of the tapered through hole is adjusted.Type: GrantFiled: January 3, 2005Date of Patent: December 5, 2006Assignee: Highplus International Co., Ltd.Inventor: Yu-Yueh Kao
