FLUSHING ASSEMBLY, WATER SUPPLY ASSEMBLY, LOWER POSITION WATER SUCTION ASSEMBLY, WATER TANK, CHECK VALVE FOR USE IN A TOILET, AND METHOD, DEVICE, AND STORAGE MEDIUM FOR CONTROLLING TOILET WATER CONSUMPTION
The present disclosure provides a lower position water suction assembly, including a jet flow element configured to convey water in a water tank and outside tap water together into a bowl part of a toilet. The lower position water suction assembly also includes a lower position water suction pipe connected to the jet flow element and configured to convey the water in a lower portion of the water tank into the jet flow element. The lower position water suction pipe includes a water suction pipe port comprising a plurality of projections configured to contact an inner bottom surface of the water tank and draw the water from the lower portion of the water tank.
Toilet Assembly
A skirted toilet assembly, comprising a toilet bowl having a sump outlet; and a wall extending around the bowl from a first rear edge to a second rear edge; wherein the wall, the first rear edge, and the second rear edge define a space within the wall, the sump outlet is configured to couple to a trapway, the trapway is configured to fluidly couple the sump outlet with a sewer outlet, and the trapway is configured to be disposed within the space. A trapway may be a thermoplastic and the sump outlet a ceramic.
ANTI-OVERFLOW TOILET WITH AN INTERNAL DIVERTING WALL DIVERTING FLUSH WATER FROM A SECONDARY DRAIN INLET
A toilet includes a bowl including a supply water plenum providing the water to the basin, a primary drain fluidly connecting and terminating at a drain passage and a secondary drain fluidly connecting the supply water plenum to the sewer drainage pipe. The secondary drain is separate from the primary drain and includes at least one secondary drain inlet that is disposed within the supply water plenum, a second drain channel, and a second drain outlet. The inlet permits rising waste water to flow from the supply water plenum into the second drain channel and out of the second drain outlet to the sewer drainage pipe separately from the waste water of the primary drain. The supply water plenum also includes a diverting wall located upstream of the secondary drain inlet configured to divert water flowing from upstream from flowing into the inlet.
FLUSHING TOILET
A flushing toilet has a manually operable main discharge valve with a main flushing outlet connected to a flushing outlet below the normal water level in a toilet bowl water trap. The flushing outlet is directed toward the water trap. A generally tangential swirling outlet in an upper region of the toilet bowl is controlled by a separate valve and directed generally horizontally to cause water leaving it to follow a swirling path on the inside of the toilet bowl in a cleansing flush. The water trap has a passage that follows a path of generally squat U-shape with an inlet end opening into the lower end of the toilet bowl, a central region that is lowermost and a water trap outlet the lowermost part of which defines a depth to the water trap. The cross-sectional shape of the passage has a longer vertical axis than its horizontal axis.
Primed Jet Toilet
A siphonic flush toilet system and method of priming the same having a toilet bowl assembly comprising at least one jet flush valve assembly and at least one rim valve; and bowl having a rim and a jet defining at least one jet channel. The bowl has a closed jet pathway to maintain the jet channel in a primed state with fluid from the jet flush valve assembly to prevent air from entering the closed jet pathway. Flush valves may have back-flow preventer mechanisms and/or at least partly flexible valve covers, including specific valve cover structures. Flush activation assemblies may have a flush activation bar connected to the pivot rod and/or an adjustable flush connector located between the pivot rod and the flush activation bar. A kit providing one or more flush activation elements is included. The kit elements may be usable with the toilet systems and methods described.
LINE PRESSURE-DRIVEN, TANKLESS, SIPHONIC TOILET
A tankless toilet includes a bowl, a trapway, and a jet. The bowl includes a rim at an upper portion of the bowl and a sump at a lower portion of the bowl. The trapway extends from the sump to a drain. The jet includes a main channel configured to receive a supply of water from a supply conduit, and a plurality of distribution channels configured to introduce water received from the main channel to at least one of the sump and the trapway. The jet is configured to receive the supply of water from the supply conduit at a first flow rate and induce a flow from the supply of water into the trapway at a second flow rate greater than the first flow rate to prime a siphon within the trapway. The second flow rate is greater than the first flow rate prior to priming the siphon.
Anti-overflow toilet with detachable primary and secondary drain tubes
A toilet configuration includes a toilet fixture, a detachable primary drain, and a detachable secondary drain. The primary and secondary drains can be assembled together or formed unitarily. The fixture includes a toilet bowl, a primary drain interface at a bottom of the bowl configured to permit liquid to flow from the toilet bowl into a detachable primary drain, and a secondary drain hole. The detachable primary drain fluidly is connected to the primary drain interface and is configured to be fluidly connected to a sewer pipe to discharge the liquid directly into the sewer pipe. A detachable secondary drain fluidly is connected to the secondary drain hole and is configured to be fluidly connected to the sewer pipe to discharge backed up fluid from the toilet fixture directly into the sewer pipe.
FLUSH TOILET
The bowl portion of the flush toilet includes a bowl-shaped waste receiving surface and a rim portion formed on a top edge of the bowl portion. The rim portion includes a rim inside wall portion located on an inner side of the top edge of the bowl portion. The rim inside wall portion has a rim inside surface located at a lower area of the rim inside wall portion and a rim inside wall upper sloped surface having a section in a vertical plane, the shape of the section being sloped from an upper edge of the rim inside surface to an upper edge of the rim inside wall portion. The ratio between the height of the rim inside surface and the height of the rim inside wall upper sloped surface is 1:1 to 6:1 in a section in a vertical plane at any area other than a rear area.
Dual-jet toilet
A toilet includes a bowl having an opening, an outlet, and two jet holes positioned above a water line defined by a weir of a trapway. The two jet holes are configured to evacuate waste from the bowl into a drain.
FLUSH TOILET
A flush toilet forms a bowl including a waste-receiving surface and a rim; a rim water passageway and rim spout port for spouting flush water into the bowl and forming a circulating flow are formed on the rim; this rim spout port downstream side flow path changes in curvature from small to large at curved portions formed at positions in the rim inner circumferential wall closest to the rim spout port in at least the right rear area inside the bowl and the front area inside the bowl, and these curved portions are formed by transition curves as seen in plan view.
