DEVICE FOR THE INTRODUCTION OF SOAP INTO A WATER SUPPLY

摘要

A device for introducing soap into a high pressure water circuit includes a soap reservoir, a mixing chamber and a pump. A water supply line in fluid communication with a water source and the mixing chamber provides unmixed water to the device. The pump is in fluid communication with the soap reservoir and the mixing chamber and selectively transfers a desired volume of soap from the soap reservoir into the mixing chamber. A mixing valve that is selectively adjustable by a user controls the proportion of the soap and water mixture exiting the device for use. A housing adjustably mounts the device in a shower so that the relative height of the device in a shower may be adjusted. An output supply line in fluid communication with mixing chamber and a nozzle allows a mixture of water and soap to exit the device for use.

主权项

1. A device for the introduction of soap into a water supply, which comprises:
a soap reservoir for holding a volume of liquid soap, the soap reservoir having a soap outlet; a soap and water mixing chamber, the soap and water mixing chamber having a soap inlet for receiving soap therethrough, a water inlet for receiving water therethrough and a mixed soap and water outlet, the soap and water mixing chamber causing soap and water received through the soap inlet and the water inlet to be mixed to provide mixed soap and water, the mixed soap and water being discharged from the soap and water mixing chamber through the mixed soap and water outlet thereof; a water supply line having a first end and a second end disposed opposite the first end, the first end of the water supply line being in fluid communication with the water inlet of the soap and water mixing chamber, the second end of the water supply line being in fluid communication with a water source; a mixed soap and water output supply line, the mixed soap and water output supply line having a first end and a second end disposed opposite the first end, the first end of the mixed soap and water output supply line being in fluid communication with the mixed soap and water outlet of the soap and water mixing chamber; and a pump, the pump being in fluid communication with the soap outlet of the soap reservoir and the soap inlet of the soap and water mixing chamber, the pump being operable by a user to transfer soap from the soap reservoir to the soap and water mixing chamber.
