WASTE DISPOSAL SYSTEM, AND METHOD OF ITS USE
20170321404 · 2017-11-09 ·

A side-opening sleeve valve having an inner cylindrical barrel with a shaped opening through the wall, an outer cylindrical barrel having shaped opening through the wall, where the barrels are co-annular and rotatable, and a means for rotating the inner barrel relative to the outer barrel between a first open position where the shaped openings overlap to form a side opening into the sleeve valve, and a second closed position where the shaped openings do not overlap. A side-opening valve is used in pigging fluid flush system for a water-less toilet, where a toilet bowl empties into the side opening of the side-opening valve when opened. When the side-opening valve is closed, a pig cleaning system pushes the waste in the side-opening valve to a sewage system.

Hydraulic system including manifold, flush valve, and shut off
11365534 · 2022-06-21 ·

Hydraulic devices used to control timing, direction, and velocity of fluid flow are disclosed. The hydraulic device includes a flush valve. The flush valve includes one or more venturi that assist in moving the fluid through flush valve. A manifold includes a housing defining a piston cavity and a piston. The piston is moveable within the piston cavity by a piston actuator between a first position and a second position. A manifold inlet defined by the housing is configured to receive a first fluid from a supply line and is in fluid communication with the piston cavity. A manifold outlet is defined by the housing and is in fluid communication with the piston cavity in. In the first position, the piston prevents fluid communication between the manifold inlet and the manifold outlet through the piston cavity. In the second position, the manifold inlet is in fluid communication with the manifold outlet such that the first fluid can flow from the supply line to the manifold outlet through the piston cavity.

Flush valve
11739512 · 2023-08-29 · ·

A flush valve includes a valve housing defining a fluid passageway between a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet. The fluid passageway includes a diaphragm valve seat disposed between the fluid inlet and the fluid outlet. The flush valve additionally includes a diaphragm assembly including a diaphragm and a disc. The diaphragm includes a primary opening and a bypass opening. The primary opening receives the disc therein and the bypass opening allowing water under pressure supplied to the fluid inlet to pass from a fluid inlet side of the diaphragm into a chamber in the fluid passageway. The flush valve additionally includes a relief valve configured to selectively control fluid flow from the chamber to the fluid outlet. The relief valve comprises a stationary valve element and a rotatable valve element each having at least one opening and being rotationally positionable relative to one another to regulate fluid flow.

Unpowered automatic flushing module for flush valve having integrated flushing opening/closing portion
11732455 · 2023-08-22 · ·

An unpowered automatic flushing module for a flush valve having an integrated flushing opening/closing portion is proposed. The module controls time to dispose of toilet paper with feces and flushing of the feces while suctioning air from outside through a toilet paper time adjustment part when a toilet user defecates and leaves a toilet seat, and controls time to dispose of the toilet paper with urine and flushing of the urine so as to flush an amount of water for urination while rapidly suctioning the air from the outside through the toilet paper time adjustment part and a urine flushing adjustment part when the toilet user urinates and leaves the toilet seat, thereby preventing the toilet user from wasting the water by unnecessarily pressing a lever. In addition, the flushing opening/closing portion is integrated into a module of a detection switch instead of fixing to the toilet seat separately.
