ABSTRACT:
A dual level toilet flushing unit includes two different height conduits in fluid communication with one another at a junction close to the discharge opening of the unit to permit selection of the quantity of water to be flushed. A rounded elbow smoothly diverts the water flowing from the taller conduit and having a lesser head pressure toward the junction. A curved baffle within a horizontal section of the taller conduit directs the water from the elbow to one side of the discharge opening and circularly along an expanded annular shroud upstream of the discharge opening to impart a swirling action to the water and increase the force of the water entering the discharge opening. A manually actuated linkage selects the conduit through which the water is to flow.
