WAY OUT VALVE FOR URINALS WITH A MORE EFFICIENT SEAL
The present invention is related with the accessory manufacturing industry for products such as faucets, showers, floaters, toilet seats, among others. It is more specifically related with the manufacturing of valves for dry urinals that allow the passing through of the urine and prevent the return of unpleasant odors. The invention consists in an assembled valve for the urinal's exit with a more efficient seal, characterized for including in a main body with bonding means, a superior one to fixate to a urinal and an inferior one to fixate to the plumbing that will hydraulically connect the main body of the valve to the drain exit. In the superior ending, this main body includes a pierced disc, where the urination will directly impinge, in the interior, slightly beneath half, the structure includes a disc with a centered orifice, this disc in its inferior face has a tubular projection that will be obstructed or liberated by the valve component of the valve's assemble; such inferior internal disc in its upper part has a very opened conic configuration.
ODOR TRAP MECHANISMS AND SELF CLEANING URINAL SYSTEMS
Disclosure provides mechanical odor trap mechanism that can be coupled anywhere in the plumbing of a urinal system below the operative base. A receptacle is provided to receive and discharge the fluid from the urinal via a floatation device that is configured to float in the presence of fluid and settle down into the discharge opening in the absence of fluid to sealingly close the opening and block the escape of odor. A self cleaning urinal system can be configured to implement such mechanical odor trap mechanism and further be configured with spraying mechanism disposed at an elevation to spray water and/or air jets to wash away splattered fluid residue. A feces, urine and wash water separating toilet pan can be provided with a lid configured to sealingly close the opening for feces to enable washing without the user shifting positions and also to block odor.
Portable personal urinal
A portable personal urinal device designed for home use provides a practical and hygienic solution for urination. The device features a vertical standing support with a base equipped with lockable casters for mobility. An upper reservoir for water is attached near the top of the support, with ports for water introduction and removal. Below this, a urine receptor with a height adjustment mechanism includes a bowl and a waste liquid reservoir. The device facilitates fluid communication between the bowl and the reservoir through conduits equipped with valve mechanisms for controlling water flow and waste disposal. Additional functionalities include a movable top cover for the receptor, integrated pumps for water and waste management, and optional features such as a toilet paper holder and a deodorizer in the water reservoir. This invention addresses hygiene, convenience, and aesthetic appeal, making it suitable for diverse user needs and settings.
Cartridge for a urinal outlet
A removable cartridge for a low or zero water urinal outlet comprises a body comprising a side wall including one or more locking projections projecting out from the wall. One or more resilient elements are provided in the wall and each resilient element includes one of the locking projections.
Adjustable fixture screen system
The disclosure provides a urinal screen comprising a flexible screen in a circular configuration having a center portion and a contiguous outer portion encircling the center portion, the outer portion being separated into one or more elongated strips extending outwardly from the center portion, and the center portion having a center hole extending therethrough. When positioned on a surface of a urinal or other fixture, the screen is substantially conformable to the urinal surface without sacrificing the screen objective to keep debris from entering drain. In embodiments, the center portion of the screen can be adjustable in height such that the screen is in a mound- or dome-like configuration and still preventing any debris from entering the drain.
Gravity Drain Valve
A drain valve comprises a housing having a housing wall defining an internal flow passage through the housing; and a post held within the flow passage, the post supporting a first valve member, such that the first valve member contacts a valve seat on the housing wall. The post is selectively configurable to accommodate a further valve member within the housing at a location spaced from the first valve member along the internal flow passage, wherein the further valve member contacts a further valve seat on the housing wall.
TOILET THAT ALLOWS THE SEPARATION OF SOLID AND LIQUID WASTE, COMPRISING A BOWL, THE REAR PART OF WHICH IS EQUIPPED WITH A RETRACTABLE URINAL THAT IS ACTUATED BY MEANS OF A MECHANICAL, ELECTROMECHANICAL, HYDRAULIC OR REMOTE MECHANISM
The present application is directed to a toilet that allows the separation of solid and liquid waste. This toilet, when activated, releases a retractable urinal that pivots inside the toilet bowl, covering the water visible in the bowl, allowing liquid waste to flow through the retractable urinal through a flexible hose which connects directly to the drain, avoiding the siphon and without the need to apply a discharge of water. In case that a water discharge is wanted to use in the retractable urinal, it is possible, and it is a significantly less amount than that used for solid waste, as it is only the discharge of water necessary to wash the walls of the retractable urinal, and not the 4.2 liters needed to activate the toilet siphon.
Deodorizing urinal
A deodorizing urinal includes a urinal body and a deodorizing device. The deodorizing device is connected to the urinal body, and includes a cooling unit, a releasing unit and a processing unit. The cooling unit is configured to generate a unit of low-temperature deodorizer. The releasing unit is configured to receive and store the unit of low-temperature deodorizer from the cooling unit. The processing unit is coupled to the releasing unit and is configured to generate a releasing signal in response to a trigger condition. The processing unit is configured to send the releasing signal to the releasing unit to enable the releasing unit to release the unit of low-temperature deodorizer stored therein into the urinal body.
Outlet for a sanitary unit
A fitting (10) for a sanitary unit outlet (5) has a tubular housing (12) having an inlet (14) and an outlet (16), a grid (18) associated with the housing inlet (14) and a one-way valve (20) associated with the housing outlet (16). The housing (12), grid (18) and one-way valve (20) are removable from the sanitary unit outlet (5) as a single entity.
Gravity drain valve
A drain valve has a housing defining a drain conduit for the passage of fluids to be drained, the drain conduit having a first rim defining an inlet to the drain conduit opposite a second rim defining an outlet from the drain conduit. One or more non-return valves are within the drain conduit between the first rim and the second rim and have a closed configuration and an open configuration adapted to allow fluids to flow through the outlet of the drain conduit. A vent conduit extends within the drain conduit and comprises internally a lower valve seat, an upper valve seat and a bypass valve positioned between the lower valve seat and the upper valve seat. The bypass valve is adapted to allow gas to bypass the one or more non-return valves and escape to atmosphere when the gas reaches a predetermined pressure.
