Abstract (en)
[origin: WO0029769A2] A water tap particularly for kitchen sinks includes a body member attachable to the kitchen sink and having first and second ports for connection to hot and cold water supply lines, respectively, of the kitchen sink and a third port for connection to a third water supply line; and a handle rotatably mounted about a longitudinal axis with respect to the body member and operatively connected to a valve assembly such that: (a) rotating the handle to a selected position within a first operating region connects the first and second ports to a mixing chamber and controls the proportions of the hot and cold water supplied to the mixing chamber from the respective hot and cold water supply lines for discharge through a spout; and (b) rotating the handle to a selected position within a second operating region connects the third port to the spout for discharging water from the third water supply line.
[origin: WO0029769A2] A kitchen water tap (2) having hot (4a) and cold (5a) water supply and a third supply line (10a) has a handle (9) mounted for rotation about a longitudinal axis. Rotating the handle (9) within a first operating range (OR1) connects the hot and cold ports (4, 5) to mixing chamber (6) and controls the water temperature discharged. Rotating the handle (9) to a selected position within a second operating region (OR2) connects the third port (10) to the spout (7) for discharging water from the third supply line (10a).
