An automatic faucet assembly comprising a faucet body and spout; an electromechanical valve; a controller; and a power source, wherein the faucet body comprises an electrically conductive material and is configured to be associated with an electric field, the faucet spout is configured to deliver water when the electromechanical valve is in an open position and to not deliver water when the electromechanical valve is in a closed position, the controller, the faucet body, the electromechanical valve, and the power source are in electrical communication, and the controller is configured to detect motion of an end user in the electric field.

Automatic faucet

An automatic angle stop assembly for a urinal or toilet may include an angle stop adjustment device and an angle stop. The automatic angle stop assembly may automatically control flow through the angle stop to a flush valve. The automatic angle stop assembly may include a motor and an adjustment screw. A method for closing the angle stop may include sensing a flow condition, automatically rotating a motor based on the flow condition, and closing the angle stop.

Angle stop assembly

A flush valve assembly comprising a flush valve comprising a flush valve body extending from a flush valve inlet to a flush valve outlet; a flush valve seal having a top face and a bottom face; and a flush actuator comprising a rigid linkage; wherein the bottom face of the flush valve seal is configured to enclose the flush valve inlet; and wherein the rigid linkage is coupled to the top face of the flush valve seal and is configured to lift the flush valve seal to open the flush valve and to lower the flush valve seal to close the flush valve. A rigid linkage is configured to lift a flush valve seal and to lower a flush valve seal at a controlled rate.
