Abstract: A new type water output converter includes: a valve body, and a valve sleeve. Wherein, in the valve body is provided with a first water route and a second water route. One of which is switched to open or close through using the valve sleeve. The water output of the second water route is controlled through an outside connected switch. The position of the valve sleeve is adjusted by the outside connected switch through feedback of water pressure in the second water route. When the outside connected switch is switched off, the valve sleeve is pushed to move upward by the water pressure in the second water route, to open the first water route. When the outside connected switch is switched on, the valve sleeve is pushed to move downward by the water pressure in the first water route, to close the first water route.

Abstract: A water output switching structure for a bath tub includes a shell; and a water inlet chamber. The shell is of a cylindrical shape, and the water inlet chamber is sleeved around by the rear end of an inner chamber of the shell placed laterally, while a lower side at a front end of the water inlet chamber is provided with a water output hole. A lower end of the guide rod is connected to and acting in cooperation with the extension portion, so that when the guide rod is pulled up, the switching valve core is swung downward to seal off the water output hole, and when the guide rod is pressed downward, the switching valve core is swung upward to open up the water output hole. The water output switching structure for a bath tub occupies less space and provides tight seal.

Abstract: A method and system for selectively providing a contemporary sink or basin with a cascading water flow over the inside surface of the sink or basin, in addition to a flow of wash water into the basin itself. The sink or basin is provided in two parts, connected about the drain passage. Wash water is flowed into the bowl from above, and cascade water is introduced into a reservoir between the lower, base part and an upper, insert part. A narrow gap between the lower and upper parts lets water flow over the edge of the insert and along the sides of the basin, washing away detritus falling there such as toothpaste and shaving lather. Temperature and volume of the water are controlled for instance by a first valve, and a second valve controls flow into the basin from the faucet and/or from the reservoir.
