ABSTRACT:
A dual flush valve assembly for use in the water storage reservoir of a conventional toilet is disclosed. The assembly includes a valve, a guide track, a pair of slider members, slideably mounted in the guide track and individually connected to the valve and an actuation assembly adapted for controlling the displacement of those slider members. The valve is adapted for effecting a discharge of a first quantity of water, and a second quantity of water. The action of the valve is controlled by the actuation assembly effecting a displacement of one or more of the slider members. The first quantity of water is measureably smaller than the second quantity of water. The invention provides a means whereby the user may select the quantity of water discharged in a flush cycle according to the type of waste materials being disposed of.
