A multi-purpose automatic filing basin is provided for containing a selected amount of water which is used for various purposes. The water may be transferred from the basin by wicks or by a pump to water using devices such as plant pots or toys or may be provided for direct use from the basin for devices such as animal feeders and habitats. The basin is kept supplied with water from a pressurized source by a specialized valve which opens in response to a drop in water level below a first selected level and closes in response to the water level reaching as second selected level.

Multi-purpose self-watering system

Disclosed is a fill valve and mounting adapter assembly combination for tank-type toilets and the like which renders the fill valve internally and instantly mountable and dismountable without the necessity of separating the mounting adapter assembly from the tank and the water delivery line. The mounting adapter is T-shaped, hollow and provides water communication, when the adapter is mounted on the tank, through the interior of the adapter, between the water line and the interior of the tank and comprises an outwardly projecting circular platform on the upper end thereof having a lower surface with a hole in the center thereof and a circumferential circular vertical wall with a pair of inwardly projecting and opposing retention tabs at its upper end which tabs and the bottom wall and side wall of the platform form a recessed trough therein adapted to receive and seat a fill valve in the platform, which valve seats on a pair of o-ring seals providing a water tight seal between the fill valve and the mounting platform. A unitary axially positioned hollow shank portion in water tight communication with and projecting downwardly from the lower surface of the mounting platform has a threaded exterior adapted to seal in cooperation with mounting and connecting nuts the mounting assembly to the tank and to the water line. The fill valve is rendered instantly and digitally rotably mountable and dismountable from the tank of a tank-type toilet without disassembly of the mounting or connecting assemblies, which fill valve comprises a circular base having two opposing compression cams adapted to seat and seal the fill valve in the trough of the platform of the mounting adapter.

Multi-purpose automatic filling and leveling fluid basin with water

A device for dispensing water front a source of water under pressure to at least one water using attachment, includes a basin and a water dispensing adjustable diaphragm fill valve. The water using attachments may have various configurations such as but not limited to garden planters and pots, terrariums, ant farms, garden pot converters, underground springs, Christmas tree stands, animal waterers, animal waterer/feeders, bird baths, hummingbird feeders, amphibian habitats, animal cages, bird cages, pond filter/fountains, aquariums, air conditioners and water toys. The basin holds a volume of water and has a closed bottom, at least one side wall, and an open top and includes a water inlet port adapted to connect the basin to the source of water under pressure. A mounting rim is positioned adjacent to the open top for mounting the water using attachments, and a seat is provided for readily accepting and releasing the fill valve within the basin below a selected water line. The adjustable diaphragm fill valve is mounted on the seat and maintains a volume of water in the basin at a predetermined level. The fill valve has at least one water outlet port for dispensing water from the fill valve into the basin.

Multi-purpose automatic filling and leveling liquid basin with liquid

A multi-purpose automatic filing basin is provided for containing a selected amount of water which is used for various purposes. The water may be transferred from the basin by wicks or by a pump to water using devices such as plant pots or toys or may be provided for direct use from the basin for devices such as animal feeders and habitats. The basis is kept supplied with water from a pressurized source by a specialized valve which opens in response to a drop in water level below a first selected level and closes in response to the water level reaching as second selected level.
