Bath faucet system

Abstract

Systems, methods, and apparatuses related to a bath faucet are provided herein. The system may include a water jacket. The water jacket includes a water jacket base configured to couple to a water supply and a cavity positioned between the water jacket base and a top surface of the water jacket. The cavity is configured to receive water from the water supply. The water jacket includes an aperture extending from the top surface to the cavity. The aperture is configured to receive a diverter rod such that the diverter rod extends through a flow path of the water within the cavity. The water jacket includes a hose connector extending from the top surface to the cavity. The hose connector is configured to couple with a hose and to direct water from the cavity to the hose.

         2 . The water jacket of  claim 1 , wherein the hose connector protrudes outward from an outside surface of the water jacket. 
     
     
         3 . The water jacket of  claim 1 , wherein the hose connector is offset from the aperture such that the hose does not abut the diverter rod within the cavity. 
     
     
         4 . The water jacket of  claim 1 , further comprising one or more seals positioned between the diverter rod and the water jacket. 
     
     
         5 . The water jacket of  claim 4 , wherein the one or more seals comprise:
 a first set of seals positioned between the diverter rod and the water jacket and configured to prevent water from leaking out of the water jacket via the aperture; and   a second set of seals positioned between the diverter rod and an inlet to a diverter assembly and configured to prevent water from entering the diverter assembly when the diverter rod is in a closed position.   
     
     
         6 . The water jacket of  claim 1 , wherein the water jacket comprises a circumferential sidewall defining the cavity therein. 
     
     
         7 . The water jacket of  claim 1 , wherein the hose comprises a first end coupled with the hose connector and a second end coupled with a water outlet of the bath faucet system. 
     
     
         8 . The water jacket of  claim 7 , wherein the hose defines a curvilinear sidewall extending between the water jacket and the water outlet. 
     
     
         9 . The water jacket of  claim 1 , wherein the diverter rod permits water to flow through the bath faucet system when the diverter rod is in an open position and prevents water from flowing through the bath faucet system when the diverter rod is in a closed position. 
     
     
         10 . The water jacket of  claim 1 , wherein the cavity is configured to receive hot water from a hot water supply and cold water from a cold water supply, such that the hot water and the cold water intermix within the cavity. 
     
     
         11 . The water jacket of  claim 1 , wherein the water jacket is configured to couple with a mounting component, such that the top surface is at least partially disposed over the mounting component, the mounting component coupled with at least one of an interior surface or an exterior surface of the water supply. 
     
     
         12 . The water jacket of  claim 11 , wherein the mounting component extends along a center portion of the cavity, such that water flows around a portion of the mounting component into the cavity. 
     
     
         13 . The water jacket of  claim 1 , wherein the diverter rod is configured to translate axially relative to the aperture, wherein the axial translation causes an inlet fluidly coupled with the water jacket to (a) open to allow water to flow through the water jacket or to (b) close to prevent water from flowing through the water jacket. 
     
     
         14 . A water jacket for a bath faucet system, comprising:
 a water jacket base configured to fluidly couple to a water supply;   a cavity positioned between the water jacket base and a top surface of the water jacket, the cavity configured to receive water from the water supply;   an aperture extending from the top surface to the cavity, the aperture configured to receive a diverter rod such that the diverter rod extends through a flow path of the water within the cavity; and   a hose connector extending from the top surface to the cavity and offset from the aperture, the hose connector configured to couple with a hose and to direct water from the cavity to the hose.   
     
     
         15 . The water jacket of  claim 14 , further comprising one or more seals positioned between the diverter rod and the water jacket, wherein the one or more seals comprise:
 a first set of seals positioned between the diverter rod and the water jacket and configured to prevent water from leaking out of the water jacket via the aperture; and   a second set of seals positioned between the diverter rod and an inlet to a diverter assembly and configured to prevent water from entering the diverter assembly when the diverter rod is in a closed position.   
     
     
         16 . The water jacket of  claim 14 , wherein the diverter rod permits water to flow through the bath faucet system when the diverter rod is in an open position and prevents water from flowing through the bath faucet system when the diverter rod is in a closed position. 
     
     
         17 . The water jacket of  claim 14 , wherein the cavity is configured to receive hot water from a hot water supply and cold water from a cold water supply, such that the hot water and the cold water intermix within the cavity. 
     
     
         18 . The water jacket of  claim 14 , wherein the water jacket is configured to couple with a mounting component, such that the top surface is at least partially disposed over the mounting component, the mounting component coupled with at least one of an interior surface or an exterior surface of the water supply, wherein the mounting component extends along a center portion of the cavity, such that water flows around a portion of the mounting component into the cavity. 
     
     
         19 . The water jacket of  claim 14 , wherein the diverter rod is configured to translate axially relative to the aperture, wherein the axial translation causes an inlet fluidly coupled with the water jacket to (a) open to allow water to flow through the water jacket or to (b) close to prevent water from flowing through the water jacket. 
     
     
         20 . A diverter assembly for a bath faucet, comprising:
 a water jacket comprising:
 a water jacket base configured to fluidly couple to a water supply; 
 a cavity positioned between the water jacket base and a top surface of the water jacket, the cavity configured to receive water from the water supply; and 
 an aperture extending from the top surface to the cavity; and 
   a diverter rod extending through the aperture of the water jacket and through a flow path of the water within the cavity, the diverter rod configured to move relative to the water jacket between an open position and a closed position.
