摘要： A microprocessor-operated, networked device that uses sensors in, on and near the toilet to detects toilet leaks and overflows of the toilet tank or bowl, then reports these errant conditions with a visual or audible indicator in addition to sending a message via a network (if available) to a computer system that may collate this data with that from other toilets and other sources and subsequently determine further action such as shutting off water or calling a technician. The present invention can be integral to a toilet or removably attached to an existing toilet without this technology.

摘要： A system for preventing overflow of a toilet includes a sensor, a processor and an actuator. The sensor senses a parameter caused by fluid dynamics within the toilet during a flush cycle. The parameter may involve vibration, sound, pressure, fluid flow rate or other detectible characteristics of the toilet. The processor uses information regarding the parameter that is gathered by the sensor to evaluate the condition of the flush cycle to determine if an impeded flush condition exists. In the event of an impeded flush condition, the processor directs the actuator to close a valve, which may be the toilet flapper valve in some embodiments. Also disclosed are methods for preventing toilet overflow, detecting an impeded flush condition and calibrating the system.

摘要： A wall hung toilet is described which has a toilet body having a toilet body inlet, a back plate having at least a first and a second lower fastener opening therethrough, a toilet body outlet, a bowl and a base. The bowl has an interior surface defining a interior area for receiving fluid, an inlet for introducing fluid to the interior area of the bowl and a bowl outlet. A trapway for passing fluid from the bowl outlet to the toilet body outlet is also included. The base of the toilet body extends from a front bowl portion of the base to a rear portion of the base that contacts the back plate, and the base is configured so as to distribute load bearing forces when applied to the bowl in use towards each of a first area around the first fastener opening and a second area around the second fastener area.

摘要： A leak-proof structure of a toilet tank, including a self-sealing actuating device, a string set and a water control device. When the water inlet valve is failure, the water control device is pulled by an end of the inner string of the string set driven by the buoyant cover of the self-sealing actuating device, and a column is released to restore a torsion spring, a shaft is driven to rotate to a stopped water position by the restoring elasticity, and the automatic stop-leaking purpose is achieved.

摘要： A fence valve to catch material introduced into a pipe includes a housing defining a chamber and a catch plate disposed within the chamber that is movable with respect to the housing. The catch plate includes at least one magnetic region. The valve further includes a magnetic body in communication with at least a portion of the chamber, an indicator in communication with the catch plate, and a cable having a first end secured to the catch plate and a second end secured to a hook. The catch plate is transitionable from a first position in which the catch plate is disposed at a first location within the chamber, to a second position in which the catch plate is displaced from the first location. The catch plate is detachably held in the first position by interaction between the at least one magnetic region and the magnetic body.

摘要： A manual toilet flushing apparatus including an integral inlet fresh water valve assembly (IIFWVA) and a waste water discharge pump assembly (WWDPA) operably isolated from the IIFWVA is provided to preclude waste water from contaminating pressurized fresh water (PFW). The IIFWVA includes a pressurized fresh water inlet port to receive the PFW, an inlet valve body defining an inlet valve cavity (IVC), a second plunger in communication with a first plunger to actuate a check valve to direct a flow of the PFW into the IVC, and an outlet port. The PFW flows through the outlet port to a rim of a toilet bowl. The WWDPA includes a waste water inlet port to receive waste water, a discharge pump body, and a connecting rod in communication with a retractable handle to actuate a piston in backward and forward directions to suction and discharge the waste water through a discharge port.

摘要： A toilet plunger device facilitates sealed engagement of a plunger around a trap opening in a toilet bowl. The device includes a shaft having a top end and a bottom end. A cup is coupled to the bottom end of the shaft. A bottom edge of the cup has an arcuate portion and a tip positioned opposite the arcuate portion wherein the bottom edge is teardrop shaped and configured for abutting a toilet bowl surrounding a trap opening in the toilet bowl forming a seal between the cup and the toilet bowl. Thus, movement of the cup relative to the toilet bowl produces pressure through the trap opening.
