Multipurpose soap dispenser

The multipurpose soap dispenser can be used anywhere where operations have to be carried out using liquid soap or detergents. The functioning of the multipurpose soap dispenser is essentially due to the injector (7) situated in the unit. Since the setting cone (14), located in the lower part (80, is provided with one bore having a diameter of 10 mm and another having a diameter of 5 mm, these being drilled at an angle of 130 DEG with respect to their axes, it is ensured that, in addition to the closed (Z) position, by setting the washing (W) or showering (B) position both operations can be carried out independently of each other. This is made possible by the 5-mm channel being drilled upstream of the 10-mm channel and bypassing the latter, as a result of the angular position in the setting cone (14). In the washing (W) position, the water jet streaming out of the nozzle of the injector (7) carries along the liquid soap situated in the unit and pushes this, via the 5-mm throughflow channel ...

In order to provide the water, flowing out of a shower head, with scents, a corresponding shower additive is used. The shower additive is introduced into the shower system or into a bypass fitted thereon. The shower additive dissolves in the flowing shower water and mixes with the water.

Composition intended for the physicochemical activation of water

The composition in the solid, liquid or mixed state contains active substances and excipients making it possible for the active substances to be added steadily and gradually to water under pressure issuing from irrigating apparatuses and their nozzles. The composition may contain a wide range of different active substances which may be distributed in a predetermined concentration in the running water issuing from the nozzles of showers, of bath taps, in water entering flush cisterns of lavatories and in irrigating water issuing from watering nozzles. Depending on the respective choice of the active substance the composition can therefore be employed in the field of hygienic and cosmetological sanitary and agricultural douches or sprays.

Hand washing device

Washing device for humans and animals

A washing device [ 1000 ] is described which is uniquely adapted for use by elderly, handicapped, or other users which use one hand for support and have only one hand free to operate the device. The supply line [ 1010 ] directs the fluid to a fluid valve [ 1210 ] which is controlled by a first clicking mechanism 1231 which toggles the valve between an “open” position directing fluid flow to an additive valve [ 1240 ], and a “closed” position which stops fluid flow. Additive valve [ 1240 ] is also toggled between two positions by a second clicking mechanism [ 1232 ]. In its ‘fluid only’ position, only fluid is allowed to pass out of the additive valve [ 1240 ] through a mixing chamber [ 1400 ] and out of a changeable head [ 1700 ] to the user. In another embodiment, a single three-position valve performs the same functions.

Shaped compositions for uniform delivery of a functional agent

Shaped compositions are provided for use in delivering a substantially uniform concentration of a functional agent (e.g., an antimicrobial sanitizing agent) to a flowing stream of water. The composition may be shaped and sized to be inserted into a device configured to be attached over the end of a faucet. The shaped composition may include at least two different regions (e.g., layers). A dissolvable region includes a functional agent (e.g., an anti-microbial sanitizing agent). A substantially non-dissolvable region is disposed adjacent to the dissolvable region (e.g., adjacent the bottom surface) so as to cover a bottom surface of the dissolvable region. The geometry of the shaped composition, as well as the presence of the substantially non-dissolvable region aids in providing a substantially uniform concentration of functional agent throughout the life of the dissolvable region.

Automatic system for mixing cleansing agents with a water stream

An automatic system for mixing cleansing agents with a water stream. The automatic system for mixing cleansing agents includes a activation device, electrical control unit (ECU), dispenser and mixing chamber. The activation device may be activated when a motion is detected to provide a signal to the ECU. A motor connected to a pump of the dispenser may be actuated by the ECU to dispense a cleansing agent into the mixing chamber. The cleansing agent is sucked into a pipeline by a tube and is mixed with water in the mixing chamber to produce a sudsy water exiting a water distributor.

Methods of providing uniform delivery of a functional agent from a shaped composition

Methods for introducing a substantially uniform concentration of a functional agent into a flowing stream of water using a shaped composition. The composition may be shaped and sized to be inserted into a device configured to be attached over the end of a faucet. The shaped composition comprises a dissolvable region including a functional agent (e.g., an anti-microbial sanitizing agent). A non-dissolvable region disposed adjacent to the dissolvable region may optionally be provided.

SHOWER HEAD

The shower head contains a nozzle body and a handle. The nozzle body contains a connecting rod, a support disc, and a container. The container is rotated by water from the handle and its stored liquid soap, essence, or lotion is released by centrifugal force. Water mixed with soap or essence is then ejected from the nozzle head. When the connecting rod is twisted towards a direction, the container is prevented by the support disc from contacting with water and therefore pure water is ejected from the nozzle head. A special flow path is provided in the handle. As water flows through handle, the speed of the water increases and, due to the Venturi effect, outside air is sucked into the handle and mixed with the water, thereby producing a large number of tiny bubbles. The shower head therefore provides a significantly enhanced cleaning effect. 1.
