Abstract:
A disposable plunger has a force cup and a handle removably coupled to the force cup. One end of a pliable, waterproof sleeve is sealed to the force cup and is coiled to form an annulus. Following coupling of the handle to the force cup the sleeve may be uncoiled so as to encircle a selected length of the handle. When the force cup and a portion of the handle are immersed in liquid, the sleeve prevents the liquid from contaminating the handle. When the need for the plunger has ended, the handle may be uncoupled from the force cup and the latter discarded together with the sleeve.
Abstract:
A toilet cleaning dispenser system (20), adapted for placement in a toilet tank (31) includes a hanger (33), a dispenser housing (37) and a cartridge device (77) removably coupled to the dispenser housing (37). The cartridge device (77), which includes a cleanser tablet (88) enclosed within a cartridge housing (86), is inserted into a cavity (75) of the dispenser housing (37) and turned in one direction to lock the device and, alternatively, in an opposite direction to unlock the device. The cartridge housing (86) may be formed to turn as one unit, or be formed as a basket (91) and a rotatable cap (93) that can be turned with respect to the basket (91). The dispenser housing (37) includes an inlet water trap (53) and an outlet water trap (55), each comprising a pair of concentric, nested tubes (57 and 59; 66 and 71) that retain liquid after flushing so as to prevent fumes from exiting the dispenser housing (37) into the toilet tank(31).
Abstract:
Eine Toilette insbesondere für öffentliche Zwecke umfasst ein einzelnes Toilettenbecken, das einen 1. schüsselartigen Innenraum zur Aufnahme der Exkremente besitzt, der auf seiner Oberseite einen 1. Sitz aufweist, sowie eine Reinigungsvorrichtung, mittels der der 1. Sitz und der 1. Innenraum gereinigt werden können. Dabei ist vorgesehen, dass das Toilettenbecken zusätzlich einen 2. schüsselartigen Innenraum mit einem 2. Sitz aufweist und dass eine Verstellvorrichtung vorgesehen, mittels der das Toilettenbecken zumindest teilweise um eine im wesentlichen horizontale, durch das Toilettenbecken verlaufende Achse derart verstellbar ist, dass sich wahlweise entweder der 1. Innenraum mit dem 1. Sitz oder der 2. Innenraum mit dem 2. Sitz in einer von einem Benutzer zu verwendenden Gebrauchsstellung befindet. Gleichzeitig befindet sich der entsprechend andere Innenraum mit dem zugeordneten Sitz in einer Reinigungsstellung.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a cleaning body consisting of special steel, for cleaning human skin, especially under flowing water. Said cleaning body has at least one active cleaning area. According to the invention, said active cleaning area is formed by an accessible area of the surface of the cleaning body and said active cleaning area is ultimately machined down. This results in a cleaning body with particularly effective removal of odours.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are methods of cleaning toilet basins and urinals. Cleaning components are applied to the interior surfaces of these basins other than through the flush water, without scrubbing. They are allowed to be in contact with the surface of the basin for at least one-half hour before normal use of the toilet/urinal. Preferred methods for applying the cleaning compositions are with a spray bottle or an aerosol can, with application occuring on a daily, overnight basis.
Abstract:
A human body washing device excellent in operability, design feature, feeling of use, and comfortableness even in a restricted toilet room and also easy in design, assembly, and installation, wherein a blower (14) is provided with a fresh air sucking port (14a) and an impeller comprising an impeller support body driven rotatably by a motor (12) and air blowing vanes which are disposed roughly uniformly on the outer periphery of the impeller support body and blow and build up air sucked from the sucking port (14a) by a centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the air blowing vanes, and the air blowing vanes comprise speed increasing vanes (17) which increase the velocity of air flowing in from the air sucking port (14a) to allow it to flow out by reducing the flow path area radially from the center of the impeller support body.
Abstract:
An extensible and retractable urine deflecting apparatus (10) for use in combination with a toilet and toilet bowl comprising three distinct segments all contiguously connected. Preferably the first segment consists of a pair of flush mounted attach, connect and support structures (12), but may be limited to one. Preferably the second segment consists of a pair of extensible and retractable mechanical arms (14), but may be limited to one. The third segment consists of a urine deflecting device (16) or any of various methods including but not limited to absorbent paper (50), cascading water (62), stream of air (78), or lightweight mini urinal device (68). The extensible and retractable urine deflecting apparatus (10) readily converts any typical toilet into a fully functional urinal so that a user from a non sitting position may reliably deliver and deposit a stream of urine by first deflecting and then redirecting the urine into the intended inside portion of the toilet bowl in a sanitary fashion.
Abstract:
An improved drain cable apparatus (10) is provided which facilitates clearing of clogged drainpipes (16) while providing a way to readily determine whether the drainpipe (16) has been cleared, without the necessity of withdrawing the drain cable (70) from the drainpipe (16). The apparatus (10) includes a tubular main body (12) adapted for connection via a sleeve (34) to the drain pipe (16); the main body (12) is equipped with internal drain cable-cleaning sponge elements (32), as well as an apertured end cap member (18) permitting insertion of the drain cable (70). Structure (20) for determining when the drainpipe (16) has been cleared includes a water inlet (48) and a spaced water outlet (54) arranged so that water delivered to the main body (12) passes outwardly through the outlet (54) while the drainpipe (16) remains clogged, but allows such water to pass through the drainpipe (16) when the latter is clear. In this fashion the user can readily determine when the drainpipe (16) is inclogged by visually observing water flow from the outlet.
Abstract:
La presente divulgación se refiere a un dispositivo dosificador de fluido, que permite controlar la dosificación de un fluido en una corriente de otra sustancia. Dicho dispositivo dosificador comprende un conducto con una entrada y una salida, donde la entrada está configurada para recibir el fluido y la salida está configurada para dispensar dicho fluido. También, el dispositivo dosificador comprende un pistón y un resorte conectados entre sí y dispuestos dentro del conducto, donde dicho resorte desplaza el pistón. Además, el dispositivo dosificador comprende un canal dispuesto entre la entrada y la salida, donde el canal está configurado para permitir el paso del fluido desde la entrada hacia el interior del conducto cuando el pistón se mueve desde la salida hacia la entrada, e impedir el paso de fluido cuando dicho pistón obstruye la entrada. Adicionalmente, la salida del conducto está configurada para conectarse a una válvula anti-retorno.
