Abstract: A faucet having an integrated dispensing device is provided. The faucet includes a center shaft centered on an axis, a handle portion extending away from the center shaft at a first angle and coupled to the center shaft, and a dispensing device rotatably coupled to the center shaft about the axis. The dispensing device includes a dispensing body and a dispensing arm. The dispensing body defines a first end proximate to the handle portion and a second end opposite the first end. The dispensing arm is coupled with the dispensing body and extends away from the dispensing body at a second angle, the second angle being the same as the first angle.

Abstract: A diverter seal member for a diverter structure of a tub spout structure includes a central body, a first seal extension, and a second seal extension. The central body includes a first side, a second side, and an aperture extending completely through the central body between the first side and the second side of the central body. The first seal extension extends from the first side of the central body and around a central axis that extends axially through a center of the aperture. The first seal extension includes a first extension side, a second extension side, and an extension end. The extension end of the first seal extension extends substantially perpendicularly to the first extension side and the second extension side of the first seal extension. The second seal extension extends from the second side of the central body around the central axis of the aperture.

Abstract: A capsule includes an upper body portion and a lower body portion that is coupled to the upper body portion. The lower body portion includes a lower wall that defines a lower opening. The lower body portion and the upper body portion together define an internal cavity. At least one of the upper body portion or the lower body portion includes a plurality of grooves spaced at intervals along a circumferential direction with respect to a central axis of the capsule. The plurality of grooves extends at an angle in a partially axial direction and a partially circumferential direction.
