Water restricting device for lever actuated faucets

摘要

A water conservation device for lever actuated faucets having a pair of donut-shaped rings formed of a non-abrasive material, the apertures of the donut-shaped rings of such a dimension that they are slidably received onto a faucet head of a faucet associated with a sink and the lever of the faucet which activates the flow and termination of water, the pair of donut-shaped rings having secured there between a length of expandable/retractable band fabricated from suitable material which is expandable and stretchable upon upward pressure on the lever handle of the faucet to allow the lever handle to open the valve and initiate the flow of water, the retractable band having sufficient elasticity to exert downward pressure on the lever moving the lever downwardly to close the valve and terminate flow.

主权项

1. A water conservation device for lever-actuated faucets comprising:
a pair of donut-shaped rings formed of a non-abrasive material, a respective aperture of each donut-shaped ring having a dimension such that they are slidably, frictionally received on a faucet head of a lever actuated-faucet and on a pressure-activated lever of lever-actuated faucet, said pair of donut-shaped rings secured to each other by a length of band formed of elastomeric, expandable-retractable material, said band configured to stretch upon pressure activation of said lever allowing a flow of water to exit said faucet head, and retract automatically closing said lever and said faucet head absent pressure activation to said lever.
