590:; hysterisis issue. "Such flush tank valves as now commonly used are closed against the pressure of water from a source of supply which pressure opposes the movement of the float under rising water level in the tank. This results in a slow or delayed movement of the valve preliminary to its reaching its fully closed position and accordingly develops an objectionable hissing sound due to the discharge of water through the then slightly open valve under full water pressure; this delayed action continuing until the slowed delivery of water to the tank finally raises the water level to a point where the float will be effective in fully closing the valve. This action of the conventional float controlled valves frequently gives rise to a condition where full closing of the valve does not occur with a consequent continuous leakage of water through the valve with a resulting waste of water." 321:(British, cistern) is turned, a discharge mechanism is activated by means of a rod or chain. The mechanism may be a flapper valve, which is designed to sink more slowly than the water, which will exit to the toilet bowl below, so that the tank may empty. As the tank water level drops, the float descends and actuates the fill valve. Water is fed to the tank to replenish its supply, and a smaller flow is directed into the overflow tube to refill the bowl. Once the flapper valve closes, the water flow from the fill valve continues until the tank level again reaches the fill line. 358: 351: 344: 66: 129: 25: 435:, which is integrated with the tank’s fill valve and so consumes less space. A later innovation, the floatless fill valve, designed for low-profile, low-flow toilet tanks, uses a pressure-sensing diaphragm mechanism instead of a float to control the inlet valve. Delay valves, which delay the filling until the level has dropped to a low level, avert short-cycling of the water supply. 324:
Toward the end of the discharge process, the ballcock responds to the drop in water level and refills the tank. Should the float or valve fail and allow the water level to exceed the fill line, the water will pour into the overflow tube and out to the bowl (in the flapper valve type) or to an outside

This “anti-siphon” discharge mechanism contrasts with the earlier siphon (British, syphon) valve. This design uses a ballcock attached to a pivoting lever that opens and closes a plunger stem fitted with a washer that seals against a water inlet port. When activated, it creates a siphon that relies

drain (in the siphon type). Although this does not stop the wastage of water, it prevents the flooding that would otherwise occur after a single-point valve failure. Typically the fill valve is secured by a ballcock shank

on the weight of the water falling into the toilet to suck more water in from the tank and continues to empty the tank until the water in it falls below the inlet’s intake, breaking the siphon.
