Self-cleaning toilet, particularly for use as a urinal
A self-cleaning toilet has a lower cup-shaped body delimiting an emptying opening connected to a draining pipe, and a filling opening, opposite to the emptying opening and facing a user of the self-cleaning toilet. The lower cup-shaped body has at least one side wall delimiting, with an upper edge thereof, at least one portion of the filling opening, and delimiting at least partially a gap interposed between an inner surface and an outer surface, the gap forming, with the at least one side wall a first basin adapted to contain a volume of fluid. The first basin leads to both the inner surface and the outer surface and is connected to a fluid supply duct adapted to convey a volume of cleaning fluid into the first basin so that when the cleaning fluid received in the first basin overflows, it cleans both the inner and outer surfaces.
Systems, methods, and devices relating to a urinal
Systems, methods, and devices relating to urinal, in some examples having a movable portion able to pivot from a generally closed to a generally open position. The urinal may have a drain line engaged with a proximal end of the funnel for conveying urine and rinse water into a sewer line or a toilet bowl and a rinse line coupled with a water supply for rinsing urine therein. The urinal may be movable with the assistance of one or more sensors that may automatically signal other electrical or mechanical components to move one or more portions of the urinal, and may be include elements that seal portions of the urinal when not in use or during cleaning to reduce gas or liquid escaping from the urinal system.
Urinal apparatus with consumable cap
The improved urinal apparatus is configured for insertion in an outlet of a urinal. The urinal apparatus includes a hollow body defining an upper housing and a clamp ring/lower housing. The upper housing provides an open chamber configured to receive and retain a consumable detergent/malodour counteractant and the clamp ring/lower housing is configured to support and retain a resealing valve, which is operable to allow flow of fluid, such as urine, from above, but is operable to prevent backflow from below the resealing valve. The urinal apparatus also includes a consumable cap element, which includes an axial opening at least partway through, wherein the opening is configured to receive at least part of the upper housing. A body of the cap element comprises a plurality of radially extending fins. One of the upper housing or the consumable cap element comprise an upper member comprising an array of holes, which facilitate fluid flow and insertion and extraction of the urinal apparatus as a unit.
CONNECTING STRUCTURE, NOZZLE ASSEMBLY, NOZZLE BRACKET, AND URINAL
The present disclosure provides a connecting structure, a nozzle assembly, a nozzle bracket and a urinal. The connecting structure includes: a urinal bowl, wherein the urinal bowl includes a basin surface for receiving urine, a middle upper portion of the urinal bowl comprises an accommodating space, and the nozzle assembly is disposed in the accommodating space; the nozzle bracket is disposed in the accommodating space; the nozzle bracket is movably connected with the nozzle assembly; and the nozzle bracket has a locking structure. The connecting structure according to the present disclosure enables the nozzle assembly of the urinal to be replaced and maintained conveniently and quickly.
Urinal screens
A urinal assembly having a frame and a plurality of posts or posts extending from the frame. The frame can include a plurality of openings. The openings can be defined by a plurality of sides and corners. The posts can extend from the corners and/or from the sides of the openings. In some embodiments, posts extend from a first face and a second face of the frame.
URINAL SCREENS
A urinal assembly having a frame and a plurality of posts or posts extending from the frame. The frame can include a plurality of openings. The openings can be defined by a plurality of sides and corners. The posts can extend from the corners and/or from the sides of the openings. In some embodiments, posts extend from a first face and a second face of the frame.
SUCTION CUP ARTICLE FOR A URINAL SCREEN
A suction cup article includes at least one suction cup unit having a suction cup, a neck, and a head. The head points in a direction away from the direction in which the suction cup is oriented to suction to a surface. The head has a point at a distal end of the head, and a base that is adjacent to, and wider than the neck. The head can be passed through an opening in a basin article such as a urinal screen, resulting in the neck being disposed in the opening, and the head, having a base that is wider than the opening, providing interference that holds the suction cup unit in the basin article. The suction cup unit can further include an arm that extends from the suction cup unit near the neck. The arm prevents the suction cup article from passing through the drain of the basin.
Urine containment and deodorizing device
A urine containment and deodorizing device having a funnel portion having a top side, left side, right side, bottom side, left side raised funnel portion, right side raised funnel portion, funnel portion upper side and funnel portion underneath side wherein the top side is wider than the bottom side; a bottom portion having a shaped portion, a narrower tapered portion, a bottom portion upper side, a bottom portion underneath side and at least one opening between the bottom portion upper side and the bottom portion underneath side; and a connecting portion between the narrower tapered portion of the bottom portion and the bottom side of the funnel portion.
Floor cleaning device
A cleaning system for cleaning a floor of a restroom has a self-driven cleaning head. The system has in addition a docking site for at least partially housing the cleaning head when not in use, and the cleaning head is permanently connected to electrical, water cables and hydraulic and/or pneumatic hoses during use.
Urinal-based multiplayer game system
A urinal-based multiplayer gaming system is provided. The system includes a plurality of urinals, each including a respective urine sensing system, each urine sensing system configured to sense, when active, a urine stream attribute of urine collected at that urinal. A common display is viewable from each of the plurality of urinals. A processing system is configured to: execute a computer-implemented game responsive to urine stream attributes received from the active urine sensing systems; and render game graphics on the common display during execution of the computer-implemented game, wherein the game graphics include, for each of the active urine sensing systems, a corresponding graphical component.
