Abstract
An improved toilet fill valve designed to replace a damaged toilet tank valve within a toilet. The improved toilet fill valve includes a first quick connect coupling which separates an upper section of a pipe body mounted to a float from a lower section of the pipe body mounted to an opening located at a bottom of a cistern tank within the toilet. The first quick release coupling includes a female component threadedly attached to the upper section of the pipe body. The first quick release coupling includes a male component end that can be threadedly attached to the lower section of the pipe body.
Claims5
An improved toilet fill valve designed to replace a damaged toilet tank valve within a toilet, comprising;
- a first quick connect coupling which separates an upper section of a pipe body mounted to a float from a lower section of the pipe body mounted to an opening located at a bottom of a cistern tank within the toilet;
- the first quick connect coupling including a female component threadedly
- attached to the upper section of the pipe body and the first quick connect coupling includes the female component threadedly attached to an end of the upper section of the pipe body;
- the first quick connect coupling including a male component end that can be threadedly attached to the lower section of the pipe body and wherein the first quick connect coupling includes the male component threadedly attached to the end of the lower section of the pipe body;
- and
- wherein the first quick connect coupling includes a threaded extension integrally formed to the first quick connect coupling;
- a second quick connect coupling which separates an end section of a pipe body mounted to a valve from an intermediate section of the pipe body surrounded by a float;
- the second quick connect coupling including a female component threadedly attached to the section of the pipe body extending from a valve wherein the second quick connect coupling includes the female component threadedly attached to an end of the end section of the pipe body;
- the second quick connect coupling including a male component end that can be threadedly attached to the intermediate section of the pipe body extending from the float;
- wherein the female component has a larger diameter than a male component's diameter;
- wherein the female component being threadedly attached to an end section extending from the valve of the pipe body;
- wherein the second quick connect coupling includes the male component threadedly attached to the end of the intermediate section of the pipe body;
- and
- wherein the male component end that is threadedly attached to the end of the intermediate section of the pipe body extends from an upper end of the float.
