ABSTRACT:
A waste water valve for use in the bottom of a bathtub or the like has a drain insert extending through an opening in the bottom end of the receptacle. A support member extends across the lower end of the drain inset and the vertical post is secured thereto and extends outwardly therefrom. The post has a flat planar surface thereon which intersects with an annular groove adjacent the top of the post. A closure member with a central bore is rotatably mounted on the post and is rotatable with the post when lifted to a position within the annular groove. A washer is secured within the center bore of the closure member and has a circular center bore with a flat segment adjacent thereto to permit the closure member to dwell within the annular groove when the flat segment is out of alignment with the planar surface of the post, but which will permit the closure member to slidably turn relative to the post when the flat surface is in alignment with the planar surface.
