Abstract: A faucet includes a spout and a sprayhead movable between a docked position, in which the sprayhead is in contact with the spout, and an undocked position, in which the sprayhead is spaced apart from the spout. The faucet also includes a hose that includes a tubular portion having an inlet end and an outlet end and configured to provide fluid through the spout to the sprayhead and a magnetically responsive end portion coupled to the outlet end and configured to be freely and rotatably received within a portion of the sprayhead. A magnet is located in the spout such that when the sprayhead is in the docked position, the magnet magnetically attracts the magnetically responsive end portion of the hose so as to retain the sprayhead against the spout.

Abstract: A faucet is provided. The faucet has a spout and a sprayhead releasably coupled to the spout. A hose having a magnetically responsive collar thereon provides fluid through the spout to the sprayhead. A magnet is located in the faucet such that when the sprayhead is coupled to the spout, the collar magnetically couples to the magnet, thereby applying sufficient magnetic force to the hose to retain the sprayhead against the spout.

Abstract: A storage cabinet is disclosed. The storage cabinet includes a housing, a movement system and a computing device. The housing includes a plurality of walls and a door. The walls and door define an internal storage cavity. The movement system is operatively connected to the door and configured to control vertical movement of the door. The movement system is configured to move the door between, at least, a fully closed and fully open position based on inputs provided by a user. The computing device is operatively connected to the movement system. The computing device includes a processor and memory. The memory stores instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to receive an input from a user, and generate control signal(s) for the movement system based on the input from the user. The control signals cause the movement system to move the door into a different position.

Abstract: A faucet includes a spout; a sprayhead that is moveable relative to the spout between a docked position and an undocked position; a magnet associated with the spout and having a bore; and a magnetically responsive collar associated with the sprayhead and moveable relative to the magnet in an axial direction as the sprayhead moves between the docked and undocked positions. In the docked position, magnetic forces between the magnet and the collar attract a center of the collar to align with a center of the magnet in the axial direction with the collar in the bore of the magnet.

Abstract: A toilet includes a seat, a bowl and a damper locking mechanism that allows the seat to rotate relative to the bowl with an influenced inertia. The damper locking mechanism includes a hinge base having a biasing member and an interior surface that defines a bore and a damper having an exterior surface that engages the interior surface. When the damper is disposed in the bore, the biasing member imparts a radial force to bias the damper into the hinge base and remove a looseness between the seat and the bowl.

Abstract: A mirror system includes a base mirror assembly and an adjustable mirror assembly. The adjustable mirror assembly is coupled to the base mirror assembly. The adjustable mirror assembly includes an adjustable hinge system that facilitates movement of the adjustable mirror assembly relative to the base mirror assembly. The adjustable hinge system includes a first bracket, a second bracket, a hinge, and a third bracket. The first bracket is coupled to the base mirror assembly. The second bracket is coupled to the first bracket. The hinge is coupled to the adjustable mirror assembly. The third bracket is coupled to the hinge and the second bracket. The third bracket is coupled to the second bracket via a first screw such that the base mirror assembly is coupled to the adjustable mirror assembly. Rotation of the first screw causes movement of the adjustable mirror assembly relative to the base mirror assembly.

Abstract: A shower door hinge assembly includes a mount, an upper member, a lower member, a body, a plurality of gears, and a stop member. The mount is configured to be coupled to a fixed structure. The upper member is coupled to an upper portion of the mount, and the lower member is coupled to a lower portion of the mount. The body is rotatably coupled to the mount and is configured to be coupled to a pivotable shower door, wherein the body includes an inner wall having a plurality of splines defining a ring gear. The plurality of gears are disposed in the body and are configured to permit relative rotational movement between the body and the upper and lower members. The stop member is removably coupled between the inner wall of the body and one or more gears of the plurality of gears, and is configured to be selectively removed from, and repositioned within, the body to set a rotational endpoint for a pivotable shower door.
