Description

FIG. 1 is a top perspective view of a sequentially-gated multi-port water distribution valve shown in accordance with my new design;
FIG. 2 is a bottom perspective view thereof;
FIG. 3 is a front elevation view thereof;
FIG. 4 is a rear elevation view thereof;
FIG. 5 is a right side elevation view thereof;
FIG. 6 is a left side elevation view thereof;
FIG. 7 is top plan view thereof; and,
FIG. 8 is a bottom plan view thereof.
The evenly-dashed broken lines shown in the figures are for the purpose of illustrating portions of the sequentially-gated multi-port water distribution valve and form no part of the claimed design. The dot-dash lines in the figures are for the purpose of showing boundaries of the design and form no part of the claimed design.
