FLUSH TOILET
A flush toilet wherein the rim inside wall portion comprises a rim inside wall upper sloped surface, and an improvement in user visibility and user rim portion cleanability is sought, flush water can be constrained from splashing outside the bowl portion by traveling by centrifugal force along the rim inside wall upper sloped surface from the inside surface formed at a relatively low height. The rim portion of the flush toilet of the invention includes a rim inside wall portion; the rim inside wall portion comprises a rim inside wall upper sloped surface, and an inside surface vertically extending straight up to the rim inside wall upper sloped surface; and the water supply apparatus comprises a constant flow rate valve for spouting a predetermined constant flow rate of flush water from the water spouting portion.
FLUSH TOILET
A flush toilet of present invention includes a bowl that includes a bowl-shaped waste receiving surface, a rim formed above the waste receiving surface, and a pooled water portion formed below the waste receiving surface, a discharge passage that has an inlet connected to the pooled water portion and discharges waste, and a spout portion that spouts flush water onto the bowl and forms a swirling flow on the waste receiving surface. The waste receiving surface of the bowl has a sectorial recess that is formed between a front end portion of the waste receiving surface and a front end portion of the pooled water portion so as to spread from the pooled water portion toward the front end portion of the waste receiving surface.
FLUSH TOILET
A flush toilet includes a bowl having a waste-receiving surface and a rim; the bowl comprises a front region on the front side of a center line extending in the left-right direction and equally dividing the bowl in the front-rear direction, and a rear region on the rear side thereof; whereby on either the left or right side in the front area of the bowl, on the rim, a rim water passageway is formed for passing flush water supplied from a conduit, and a rim spout port is formed, and the rim water passageway comprises: an outside passageway extending from the inlet thereof through the rim interior toward the front; a bent passageway bending inward from the downstream end of this outside passageway; and an inside passageway extending from this bent passageway toward the rear, up to the rim spout port.
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.
Siphon valve
A siphon valve assembly, the assembly comprising a tubular core; a head coupled to and surrounding a top of the core; and a fluid spray initiator coupled to the head; wherein a lower end of the head defines a siphon valve inlet, a lower end of the tubular core defines a siphon valve outlet, an upper end of the tubular core comprises a weir, and the spray initiator is configured to discharge a fluid into the core to induce a siphon flow of a surrounding fluid through the siphon valve inlet, over the weir, and out the siphon valve outlet.
Fluidics devices for plumbing fixtures
A toilet assembly includes a toilet body and a fluidic oscillator. The toilet body defines a toilet bowl that is configured to receive a volume of fluid therein. The fluidic oscillator is coupled to the toilet body in a rim area of the toilet bowl. The fluidic oscillator is positioned to direct a fluid onto an inner surface of the toilet bowl. The fluidic oscillator is configured to continuously redirect the flow of fluid to different locations along the inner surface of the toilet bowl.
Flush toilet
A flush toilet according to an embodiment includes a bowl part, a rim part, a water spout port, and a water storage part. The bowl part receives waste. The rim part is formed on a top of the bowl part. The water spout port spouts a washing water from one side of the bowl part in leftward and rightward directions. The water storage part is formed on a bottom of the bowl part. The bowl part includes a guide part that causes the washing water to swirl from the one side to another side that is opposite to the one side and causes the washing water that swirls to the another side to flow into a back side of the water storage part.
WATER TURBINE AND MOTOR COMPOSITE POWER SUCTION TYPE WATER-SAVING CLOSESTOOL
A water turbine and electric motor hybrid power suction type water-saving toilet, with toilet main body comprising a hollow frame, a hollow frame water inlet, a basin bottom water injection hole and an S-shaped bend, wherein the hollow frame is located on upper part of the toilet with water injection holes distributed along the periphery towards inner side of the toilet; the hollow frame water inlet is formed in rear part of the toilet; the basin bottom water injection hole is formed in lower part of the toilet and communicates with the hollow frame water inlet through a pipe cavity attached to outer wall of the toilet; and a basin bottom water injection valve is arranged at the opening of the basin bottom water injection hole leading to the S-shaped bend and controls connection/disconnection of basin bottom water injection hole and S-shaped bend inlet section with water pumping process synchronously.
TOILET SEAT APPARATUS AND EXCREMENT DETECTION APPARATUS
A toilet seat apparatus according to an embodiment is a toilet seat apparatus to be placed on an upper part of a toilet bowl, the toilet seat apparatus including: a toilet seat on which a user sits; a light emitting unit that emits light; and a light receiving unit that receives light; first memory that stores data received by the light receiving unit; and an arithmetic processing device that executes transfer of data received by the light receiving unit to the first memory, and analysis and deletion of data stored in the first memory, in which the arithmetic processing device transfers the data received by the light receiving unit to the first memory, and deletes the data temporarily stored in the first memory when the data has been analyzed to be data that is not data based on the reflected light from falling feces.
FLUIDICS DEVICES FOR PLUMBING FIXTURES
