Vessel rinsing apparatus

A drinkware rinsing apparatus configured to be installed on a mounting deck adjacent a sink basin, the rinsing apparatus comprising:

• a hollow, cylindrical mounting shank extending along a longitudinal axis, the mounting shank defining a first fluid passageway and including a valve seat;
• a valve at least partially disposed within the mounting shank, the valve having an open position and a closed position, the valve including a valve pin and a valve seal supported by the valve pin, the valve seal biased against the valve seat in the closed position;
• a fluid discharge control including:
• a central body extending along the longitudinal axis and at least partially disposed within the mounting shank, wherein the central body includes a second fluid passageway,
• a sprayface supported by a first end of the central body and including at least one outlet in fluid communication with the second fluid passageway, and
• a depressible trigger operably coupled to the central body, the trigger moveable between a rest position and a depressed position;
• a drain bowl operably coupled to the mounting shank, the drain bowl defined by a base and an upwardly extending wall;
• a drain channel extending through the upwardly extending wall;
• and
• wherein in the installed condition of the rinsing apparatus, the drain bowl is positioned above the mounting deck, at least a portion of the drain channel is positioned above, and inclined downwardly toward, the sink basin, and the drain channel is configured to receive fluid from the drain bowl and discharge fluid above and into the sink basin.

• a fluid discharge control including:
• a central body extending along the longitudinal axis and at least partially disposed within the mounting shank, wherein the central body includes a second fluid passageway,
• a sprayface supported by a first end of the central body and including a plurality of outlets in fluid communication with the second fluid passageway,
• wherein the plurality of outlets include a first outlet configured to discharge fluid at a first angle relative to the longitudinal axis, a second outlet configured to discharge fluid at a second angle relative to the longitudinal axis, and a third outlet configured to discharge fluid at a third angle relative to the longitudinal axis,
• a depressible trigger operably coupled to the central body, the trigger moveable between a lowered position and a raised position,
• wherein the trigger is biased toward the raised position,
• wherein depressing the trigger to the lowered position is configured to move the valve pin such that the valve seal moves away from the valve seat causing the valve to be in the open position;
• and
• wherein in the open position, the first fluid passageway of the mounting shank is in fluid communication with the second fluid passageway of the central body and the outlets of the sprayface;
• a drain bowl operably coupled to the mounting shank, the drain bowl defined by a base and an upwardly extending wall;
• a drain channel extending through the upwardly extending wall;
• and
• wherein in an installed condition of the rinsing apparatus, the drain bowl is positioned above the mounting deck, at least a portion of the drain channel is positioned above the sink basin, and the drain channel is configured to receive fluid from the drain bowl and discharge the fluid above and into the sink basin.

A vessel rinsing apparatus configured to be installed on a mounting deck adjacent a sink basin, the vessel rinsing apparatus comprising:

• a drain bowl including an upwardly extending wall and a base coupled to a mounting shank defining a longitudinal axis;
• wherein the mounting shank is configured to extend though a mounting aperture formed within a mounting deck;
• a fluid discharge control including a central body supporting a sprayface having a plurality of nozzles, and a trigger, the central body being movable relative to the mounting shank along the longitudinal axis;
• a valve operably coupled to the fluid discharge control for movement between a normally closed position and an open position, the valve including a valve seal configured to cooperate with a valve seat supported by the mounting shank;
• wherein in the open position of the valve, the mounting shank is in fluid communication with the plurality of nozzles of the fluid discharge control via the valve;
• a drain channel extending through the upwardly extending wall of the drain bowl and including a channel lower wall extending outwardly relative to the longitudinal axis;
• and
• wherein in an installed condition of the rinsing apparatus, the drain bowl is positioned above the mounting deck, at least a portion of the channel lower wall of the drain channel is positioned above the sink basin, and the drain channel is configured to receive fluid from the drain bowl and discharge the fluid above and into the sink basin.
