发明名称 Motion limitation means for enhanced-function flush handles
摘要 A toilet flusher comprising an exterior flush handle and a means for limiting the flush handle's rotation, the means being located entirely within the toilet tank. The means involve both the rear planar as well as the side cylindrical walls of the spud, in order to enhance the spud's strength and rigidity. The means further comprise a bent lift arm within the tank, and a motion limitation hub on the lift arm. The hub is sufficiently distant from the bend of the lift arm that conventional attachment of the toilet flusher to the front wall of a toilet tank, by passing the conventional left-handed nut over the entire visible length of the lift arm, including over the motion limitation hub, and onto the threads of the spud, may be easily accomplished. This is particularly advantageous for enhanced-function flush handles that are designed to be connected removably to the remainder of the toilet flusher and that will thus typically lack space within their housings to accommodate the usual, motion limitation means. The present invention allows an enhanced-function flush handle to be located as close to a tank as a conventional flush handle, and thus to accommodate more easily those installations where, for whatever reason, the tank lids are missing or slip backwards easily when the seats are leaned back against the lids.
