Filed:
Dec 16, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/335564
Inventors:
Michael A. Niver - Plymouth WI, US
Assignee:
Kohler Co. - Kohler WI
International Classification:
F16K 11/16, F16K 11/07, F16K 1/42
US Classification:
13763016, 13711905, 13762542, 13762548, 251363
Abstract:
A diverter valve is disclosed for use in a shower mixer valve or the like. It is constructed to reduce the force needed to be applied by the bather to actuate the diversion. There is a diverter stem that is moveable between a non-diverted and diverted position. The diverter stem includes an upstream portion and a reduced cross sectional waist portion downstream of the upstream portion. The reduced portion interacts with the diverted fluid to reduce the force required to move the diverter stem from the non-diverted to the diverted position.
