FLUSH VALVE HAVING OFFSET OUTFLOW PORT, AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a flush valve having an offset outlet with a large capacity. SOLUTION: The flush valve 10 having the offset outlet has a valve main body 12 which has an inlet inclusive of an inlet opening, an overflow tube socket 30 inclusive of an overflow tube opening, and an outlet 40 inclusive of an outlet opening. The outlet opening and a wall defining the same of the valve main body 12 intersect part of the inlet opening, part of the overflow tube opening, and a wall defining the same. In this manner a continuous water current is formed between the inlet opening and the outlet opening and between the overflow tube opening and the outlet opening. Embodiments of a number of alternatives of the overflow tube socket 30 and the overflow tubes 32 are proposed depending on the use of genuine goods or alternatives of the flush valve having the offset outlet.
