    摘要: An implantable prosthetic valve includes a radially collapsible and expandable annular frame having three commissure attachment posts and four rows of circumferential struts. The rows include a first row, a second row downstream of the first row, a third row downstream of the second row, and a fourth row downstream of the third row and defining an outflow end of the frame. Each row of circumferential struts includes angled struts arranged in a zig-zag pattern. A leaflet structure includes three leaflets forming three commissures, each commissure being connected to one of the commissure attachment posts only at locations along the commissure attachment posts between a first plane that is perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the frame and intersects crowns of the third row of struts and a second plane that is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis and intersects crowns of the fourth row of struts.

    摘要: An improved showerhead assembly is provided for use with handheld showerheads. The handheld showerhead includes an elongate handle and a showerhead face including one or more nozzles for spraying water. In addition, the showerhead assembly includes a hollow mount for affixing to the male threaded pipe found in a shower stall. The mount includes a “C” shaped receptacle for holding the handheld shower assembly, an inlet for receiving water, as well as an outlet for expelling water to a flexible hose, which in turn is connected to the handheld showerhead. In addition, the mount includes supplemental spray assemblies which are affixed to the left side, right side or both sides of the “C” shaped receptacle. The supplemental spray assemblies can be rotated so as to expel water through different spray nozzle configurations.

    摘要: A magnetic shower device includes a showerhead, a shower bracket, a first positioning member, and a second positioning member. The showerhead has a head body and a handle, in which the head body has a front portion and a rear portion positioned back to back. An attaching face is disposed at the rear portion. The shower bracket includes a bracket body and a holder, in which the bracket body is for connecting an inlet tube. The holder connected to the bracket body has a left fin, a right fin, and an attached face which is between the left fin and the right fin and corresponds to the attaching face. The first positioning member is disposed at the rear portion of the showerhead. The second positioning member is disposed at the holder of the shower bracket. When the attaching face of the showerhead is attached to the attached face of the shower bracket, the first positioning member and the second positioning member are attracted to each other by a magnetic force, such that the attaching face of the rear portion of the showerhead is attracted to the attached face of the shower bracket and the head body is supported by the left fin and the right fin.

    摘要: A spray head includes a front cover, a spray plate, and an actuator. The front cover includes a plurality of exit openings. The spray plate is oriented substantially parallel to the front cover. The spray plate includes a pin that is aligned with at least one exit opening of the plurality of exit openings. The pin is configured to selectively engage with the at least one exit opening to control a flow of water through the at least one exit opening. The actuator is coupled to the spray plate and is configured to reposition the spray plate relative to the front cover based on user input.

    摘要: A hose management system for a hand-shower includes a riser bar for attachment to a drop ear in a shower wall. The flexible hose includes a shower head and attaches to the riser bar, opposite the drop ear, and is held in place by a cradle. The cradle is attached to the riser bar and includes a U-shaped cross section that retains the hose within the valley of the cradle. The hose may be retained within the cradle, and used as a traditional shower, by an interference fit or by magnetic attraction. The hose may also be manually pulled out of the cradle, thereby allowing uninterrupted manipulation while using the shower head as a hand-shower.

    摘要: A handshower cradle assembly includes a waterway body, a handshower cradle, and an actuator. The handshower cradle is coupled to the waterway body. The actuator is configured to reduce a flow rate of water through the waterway body in response to a handshower being received within the handshower cradle. In some embodiments, the handshower cradle is configured to engage with the actuator under the weight of the handshower to adjust a position of the actuator with respect to the waterway body.

    摘要: A method for disinfecting water by UV irradiation in water supply systems in buildings, ships or the like with a water tapping point connected flexibly to a hose (1), in particular hand shower (1′), and a water tapping point mount (2) for receiving (21) the water tapping point (1) when not in use, wherein the UV radiation takes place at the water tapping point (1). The UV-irradiation is directed from the water tapping point mount (2) to the water tapping point (1) when the water tapping point (1) is deposited in the water tapping point mount (2). Furthermore, the invention relates to a water tapping point. Means are provided for UV irradiation (3) of the water guided in the water tapping point (1). The means for UV irradiation (3) are arranged in the water tapping point mount (2), and a UV radiation transmissive window is provided in the water tapping point (1) opposite to the means for UV irradiation (3) when deposited (21) in the water tapping point mount (2).
