Abstract:
Described are embodiments of a shower assembly that includes modular components that can be removably attached and may be replaced or interchanged with corresponding components having different form factor or design. In some embodiments, the shower assembly includes a diverter unit fluidly coupled to a fluid source and the diverter unit is configured to selectively direct flow of fluid from the fluid source to one or both of a shower head and a hand shower. The shower head includes a first plurality of nozzles configured to dispense fluid and the shower head is configured to be removably fluidly coupled to the diverter unit. The hand shower includes a second plurality of nozzles configured to dispense fluid and fluidly coupled by a hose to the diverter unit and the hand shower is configured to be removably attachable to the diverter unit by a connector.

Abstract:
Systems, methods, and techniques for cleaning sinks and dishes are provided. In some embodiments, a cleaning system comprises at least one fluid supply, at least one opening in a side wall of a sink basin, and at least one nozzle positioned along an exterior of the sink basin. The nozzle is configured to receive fluid from the fluid supply, and dispense fluid through an opening in a side wall of the sink basin to an interior surface of the sink basin. In some embodiments, the nozzle is configured to dispense fluid to the interior of a sink basin, such that substantially all surfaces of the interior of the sink basin are covered with a thin layer of fluid. In some embodiments, nozzle dispensing angle, duration of a cleaning cycle, flow rate or amount of dispensing fluid, or activation of a cleaning cycle may be manually or automatically controlled.

Abstract:
A faucet () is provided having a faucet body () and a faucet head (), wherein the faucet head () comprises a first outlet () and a second outlet (). The faucet is configured such that manual rotation of the faucet head () causes the faucet to toggle between a first mode in which fluid is dispensed from the first outlet and a second mode in which fluid is dispensed from the second outlet. Manual rotation of the faucet head may cause one or more valves to be physically/mechanically and/or electronically controlled to control flow of fluid to toggle between the different modes. One fluid outlet may be configured to dispense a first kind of fluid while the other fluid outlet may be configured to dispense a second kind of fluid.

Abstract:
A sink that includes a door that is positioned to visually obscure the drain, wherein the door can be opened by the user to access the drain when needed. The door includes a door adjustment mechanism that can allow for the door to be opened by a user and then held open without requiring user intervention. The door adjustment mechanism can also be configured to release the door and allow it to close through the actions of the user. In one or more examples, the door can be positioned so that a gap exists between an edge of the door and a basin portion of the sink. The gap can be large enough to allow for water to flow from the basin of the sink to the drain, but small enough to allow for the drain to be visually obscured.
