BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The “Electromatic Pop Up Drain” is an electrical mechanical device designed for use in the field of lavatory faucet applications. Ostensible designed for the purpose of electrically mechanically rising and lowering of the pop up drain plug in lavatory sinks. Typically, a metal lift rod & clevis assemble is employed to rise and lower a pop up drain plug on lavatory sinks. This practice of using a non electrical, manually operated lift rod & clevis assemble has been in use for more than 50 years, with out sophisticated improvement or technological advancement.
BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The “Electromatic Pop Up Drain” replaces the need for a lift rod & clevis assemble found on conventional lavatory faucets with a motion sensing device that responds to the detection of passive hand movement. Once the motion sensing device detects the presence of passive hand movement an electrical pulse is transmitted to an electrical mechanical arm, via electrical circuit that in turn rises and lowers the pop up drain plug on lavatory sinks. A second detection of passive hand movement would have the opposite effect, of rising or lowering the pop up drain plug.
