Abstract: A method of flushing a toilet that includes opening a first valve to introduce a first supply of grey water into a passage to prime a siphon; opening a second valve to introduce a second supply of water into a bowl from a tank, the bowl having an outlet that is in fluid communication with an inlet of the passage; closing the first valve to shut off the first supply of water; evacuating the contents of the bowl through an outlet of the passage by way of the siphon generated by the introduction of the first supply of water and the introduction of the second supply of water; and closing the second valve to shut off the second supply of water.

Abstract: A toilet assembly includes a toilet body and a fluidic oscillator. The toilet body defines a toilet bowl that is configured to receive a volume of fluid therein. The fluidic oscillator is coupled to the toilet body in a rim area of the toilet bowl. The fluidic oscillator is positioned to direct a fluid onto an inner surface of the toilet bowl. The fluidic oscillator is configured to continuously redirect the flow of fluid to different locations along the inner surface of the toilet bowl.

Abstract: A toilet includes a bowl, a trapway, and a passage. The trapway is fluidly connected to the bowl at a trapway inlet and extends downstream from the bowl. The trapway includes an up-leg and a down-leg extending downstream from the up-leg. The passage is fluidly connected to the trapway downstream from the trapway inlet. The passage is configured to allow ambient air from outside the toilet to pass therethrough toward the trapway.

Abstract: A fill valve for receiving a fluid flow includes a lower pipe and a flow restrictor cartridge. The flow restrictor cartridge is received in the lower pipe. The flow restrictor cartridge receives the fluid flow at a first fluid flow rate and provides the fluid flow as a second fluid flow rate lower than the first fluid flow rate. The flow restrictor cartridge includes a receiver and a compact flow restrictor. The compact flow restrictor is received by the receiver. The compact flow restrictor is configured to facilitate the reduction from the first fluid flow rate to the second fluid flow rate.

Abstract: A pressure toilet has a trapway providing “as needed” (bulk dependent) siphon assist. During normal liquid waste or low bulk flushing, no siphon is formed in the trapway, and the water and light waste in the bowl are evacuated solely under the force of the pressurized jet of water. A large volume near or just downstream from the dam is provided to accommodate the blow out from the water jet. Only upon reaching a threshold concentration of bulk waste material in the down leg does the trapway draw a siphon. A horizontal baffle at the lower part of the down leg assists in the accumulation of bulk material of sufficient concentration to establish a siphon in the trapway.
Abstract translation: 压力马桶具有提供“根据需要”（大量依赖）虹吸辅助的通道。 在正常的废液或低体积冲洗过程中，不会在疏通道中形成虹吸，而仅在加压喷射水的作用下，将碗中的水和轻废物排空。 提供了大坝附近或刚好在大坝下游的大体积，以适应水射流的吹出。 只有达到下游散装废料的阈值浓度，才能使虹吸管吸出虹吸管。 在下腿的下部的水平挡板有助于足够集中的散装材料的积聚，以在疏通道中建立虹吸。
