Shower Head Dispensing Fixture

US Patent:
4881575, Nov 21, 1989
Filed:
Sep 12, 1988
Appl. No.:
7/242600
Inventors:
Richard J. Smith - Pleasanton CA
International Classification:
F16K 1900
US Classification:
137889
Abstract:
A personal shower fixture to be inserted between a shower pipe and shower head for introducing a selected one or a mixture of several fluids contained in the fixture into the water flow to the shower head. A venturi in the fixture draws the fluids into the flow through a conduit having branches in the fluid containers, each branch having a valve and the common branch into the venturi having a flow control valve. The fluid containers are supported in a cylindrical basket secured by a bayonet connector to the bottom of the fixture body, the basket having a fluid sight gauge and floor openings for easy removal of a container. There are no check valves in the conduit system so that the conduit and its branches may be easily cleaned by merely blocking the shower head output to backflush the conduit system.

Flow Control Valve

US Patent:
4901976, Feb 20, 1990
Filed:
Aug 28, 1989
Appl. No.:
7/398965
Inventors:
Richard J. Smith - Pleasanton CA
International Classification:
F16K 326
US Classification:
251206
Abstract:
A fluid flow control valve for a fixture having a conduit for the passage of a fluid through the fixture comprises a valve rod that is manually slideable through a hole in the fixture to intercept the conduit at right angles. The rod has a plurality of various apertures through the diameter, each alignable with the conduit and sealed of by an O-ring around the rod to prevent leakage along the rod. In addition, novel saddle shaped O-rings closely surrounding the conduit and conforming to the arcuate surface of the valve rod prevent peripheral leakage around the surface of the valve rod in its "off" position.
