ABSTRACT:
A float valve assembly for a water closet that has perfect seating control. The float valve can only move in an up and down direction and cannot move sideways. The float valve assembly has a float member that forms a valve which cooperates with a valve seat for opening and closing the flushing opening of the outlet coupling of the water closet. A pair of laterally spaced wire arm members have their one end pivotally attached to the top of the float member and their other end are pivotally attached to a C-shaped clamp that snaps onto the overflow tube within the water closet. A string-like member has its one end attached to the top of the float member and its opposite end can be attached to the free end of the actuating arm within the water closet.
