Abstract

Flush valve allowing a selection of a quantity of flush water in a toilet tank comprising a tubular housing (2) having two longitudinal slots (12) with shaped bearings in mutual distance, a closing bar (5) coaxially arranged within said housing and having two longidutinal ribs (14) comprising spaced notches (15) and/or indentations, wherein said closing bar (5) is arranged in a way that each slot (12) of said housing is aligned with each rib (14), and a horseshoe shaped float (9) having adequately shaped coaxial plugs and teeth, said plugs acting as hinges and allowing said float (9) to oscillate, wherein said float (9) is in permanent engagement with a bearing (13) of said slot of said housing (2) via plug and in sporadic engagement with a corresponding notch (15) of said rib (14) of said closing bar (5), wherein said tubular housing (2) has a chamber (22) of an adequate shape at its bottom end.
