Fixture pod for a lavatory fixture

1. A fixture pod assembly comprising:

a main body having an inlet and an outlet;

a supply line coupled to the inlet of the main body;

a dispersion element retained within the outlet of the main body;

a sensor disposed within an opening of the main body; and

interfit elements extending in a single lateral direction from the main body into a fixture to secure the fixture pod assembly within an outlet of the fixture, the interfit elements extending along an interior surface of the fixture.

2. The fixture pod assembly of claim 1 wherein the dispersion element is one of an aerator and a soap dispenser.

3. The fixture pod assembly of claim 1 wherein the main body includes a framing member surrounding the sensor, and wherein the sensor is secured to the framing member via at least one fastener.

4. The fixture pod assembly of claim 3 wherein the interfit elements extend laterally from a side of the main body not aligned with the framing member.

5. The fixture pod assembly of claim 1 wherein the main body further includes:

an inner portion disposed within an interior of a fixture;

an outer portion disposed outside the interior of the fixture; and

an intermediate portion disposed within an outlet of the fixture and extending between the inner portion and the outer portion.

6. The fixture pod assembly of claim 5 wherein the interfit elements extend laterally from the intermediate portion of the main body.

7. The fixture pod assembly of claim 1 wherein a channel extends from the inlet of the main body to the outlet of the main body.

8. The fixture pod assembly of claim 7 wherein the outlet and the channel are aligned along an axis; and

wherein the inlet is oriented at an angle to the axis.

9. The fixture pod assembly of claim 1 wherein the sensor includes a time of flight sensor and a diffuse reflective sensor.

10. The fixture pod assembly of claim 1 wherein the interfit elements are disposed entirely within the fixture.

11. A lavatory unit comprising:

a fixture having a main body and an outlet; and

a fixture pod assembly retained within the outlet of the fixture, the fixture pod assembly comprising:

a main body having an inlet and an outlet;

a dispersion element retained within the outlet of the main body;

a sensor disposed within an opening of the main body; and

locking dogs extending from a single side of the main body into an interior of the fixture to secure the fixture pod assembly within the outlet of the fixture, the locking dogs being disposed entirely within the fixture and extending along an interior surface of the fixture.

12. The lavatory unit of claim 11 further including a supply line extending from an inlet of the fixture to the inlet of the main body of the fixture pod assembly.

13. The lavatory unit of claim 11 wherein the main body includes a framing member surrounding the sensor, and wherein the sensor is secured to the framing member via at least one fastener.

14. The lavatory unit of claim 11 wherein a channel extends from the inlet of the main body to the outlet of the main body; and

wherein the outlet of the main body and the channel are aligned along an axis.

15. The lavatory unit of claim 14 wherein the inlet of the main body is oriented at an angle to the axis.

16. The lavatory unit of claim 14 wherein the inlet of the main body is oriented perpendicular to the axis.

17. A method of installing a fixture pod assembly in a fixture comprising:

disposing a main body of the fixture pod assembly within an outlet of the fixture;

inserting a dispersion element into an outlet of the main body of the fixture pod assembly;

inserting a sensor into an opening formed in the main body of the fixture pod assembly; and

inserting locking dogs into an interior of the fixture, wherein the locking dogs extend in a single lateral direction from the main body of the fixture pod assembly and along an interior surface of the fixture.

18. The method of claim 17 further comprising securing a supply line to an inlet of the main body of the fixture pod assembly.

19. The method of claim 17 further comprising securing the sensor of the main body of the fixture pod assembly via at least one fastener.

20. The method of claim 17 further comprising securing the main body of the fixture pod assembly to the fixture via at least one fastener.
