Inlet valve assembly
A toilet cistern fill valve 1 comprising a fill valve assembly body 2 attached to an inlet tube 5, wherein the inlet tube comprises means to allow irreversible setting of the length of the inlet tube. The irreversible means may comprise a locking mechanism having irreversibly deformable formations of interlocking steps, stops or barbs (Figs. 1-10 and 13-17), or an adhesive (Figs. 11-12), to fix a height adjustment mechanism permanently in position. There may be a lock sleeve 62 which slides over adjustment nut 60 and is permanently held in place by barb 69. A lock insert 162 may be provided with a resilient barb 169. A collet member 261 may have a tapered internal surface with a step 262 to prevent reverse rotation by engaging fingers which act as a ratchet and pawl mechanism. Adhesive may be provided in a rupturable capsule 362. Alternatively an additional sealing interface member 660 for location between a cut or severed end of the inlet tube and the valve assembly body (Figs. 18-19) may be provided. Also claimed is a method of installing and a computer program design.
