Lightning Master Corporation - Clearwater FL

International Classification:

H05F 1/00
H01R 43/26

US Classification:

361215, 29825

Abstract:

A bonding system for a tank battery containing a flammable or combustible product being stored or conveyed, including a bonding conductor, an electrically conductive base member mounted on the tank, the electrically-conductive base member electrically connected to the bonding conductor and to ground installed within each tank and also including a flexible conductive medium with an upper end and a lower end and a plurality of fine electrically-conductive metal wires each having a proximal end and a terminal end, the proximal ends of which are intertwined with the flexible conductive medium to be in electrical connection with the electrical conductive medium, the upper end of the flexible conductive medium electrically connected with the electrically conductive base member and a plurality of static drains located proximate to the highest points of the tank battery and electrically bonded to said bonding conductor.

Appl. No.:

6/853998

Inventors:

John R. Battle - Tarpon Springs FL

International Classification:

E03D 114
E03D 312

US Classification:

4324

Abstract:

A dual mode flush valve assembly selectively operable in a full or partial flush mode for use with a toilet flush tank assembly including a flush actuator movable between a first and second position interconnected to a buoyant flush valve movable between an open and closed position, the dual mode flush valve assembly comprising a flush valve actuator assembly movable between an upper buoyant position, an intermediate full flush position and a lower partial flush position in combination with a flush valve control assembly movable between a first and second position disposed to selectively engage the flush valve actuator assembly when in the first position such that when the flush actuator is in the first position the flush valve actuator assembly is in the upper buoyant position and the buoyant flush valve is in the closed position, when the flush actuator is moved from the first to second position for less than a predetermined period of time moving the buoyant flush valve to the open position, the flush valve actuator assembly moves downward to the intermediate full flush position to engage the flush valve control assembly in the first position whereby the flush valve actuator assembly is held in spaced relation relative to the buoyant flush valve to provide the full flush mode and when the flush actuator is moved from the first to second position for more than the predetermined period of time moving the buoyant flush valve to the open position and the flush valve actuator assembly to the second position the flush valve actuator assembly moves downward to the lower partial flush position to engage the flush valve moving the buoyant flush valve to the closed position to provide the partial flush mode.

International Classification:

E03D 133
E03D 903

US Classification:

4324

Abstract:

A flush regulator selectively operable in partial flush mode or a full flush mode for use with a water closet including a water storage tank having a flush drain aperture formed in the lower portion thereof and a buoyant flapper valve disposed to selectively seal the flush drain aperture movable between an open and closed position by a flush handle movable between a first and second position to selectively control the flow of water through the flush drain aperture and to dispense bleach or detergent into the water storage tank, the flush regulator comprising a buoyant flush assembly movably disposed within the water closet including a float chamber to control the buoyance of the buoyant flush assembly and a dispensing chamber configured to operatively house a bleach/detergent therein such that when the flush handle is moved from the first position to the second position and released the float chamber engages the buoyant flapper valve in the open position to force the buoyant flapper valve to prematurely return to the closed position to operate in the partial flush mode to discharge a first volume of water and when the flush handle is moved from the first position to the second position and held in the second position the buoyant flapper valve is held in the open position to operate in the full flush mode to discharge a second volume of water and wherein when the flush handle is moved from the first position to the second position and released a portion of the bleach/detergent disposed within the dispensing chamber is dispersed into the water storage tank. Several embodiments are disclosed.
