A one piece apparatus for cleaning and sanitizing toilets comprising an elongated clip and a perforated canister; made out of plastic or similar hard material it is designed to work in a typical toilet application that includes an overflow tube inside the toilet tank plumbing parts.

The apparatus is attached to the overflow tube inside the toilet's tank using the clip part and keeping the canister part (where the chlorine tablet will be placed) partially submerged in the toilet tank water line.

Water from the toilet tank will flow through the perforated canister dissolving the chlorine tablet slowly thus feeding chlorine into the toilet water tank; this chlorinated water will pass through the toilet from the tank to the bowl in normal operation very time the toilet is flushed.

A rim-mounted toilet insert that creates a scented oil barrier to automatically trap odors between each flush. The apparatus and composition blocks toilet odors automatically, so users don't have to remember to apply it before you use the restroom.

A toilet that includes a tank configured to hold water from a water supply; a reservoir fluidly connected to the tank and configured to hold a cleaning compound comprising a chemical compound and water from the water supply; and an actuator configured to control a flush cycle of the toilet upon a first activation, the actuator including at least one nozzle fluidly connected to the reservoir and configured to discharge an amount of the cleaning compound external to the tank upon at least one of the first activation or a second activation.

A dosing system and method for dispensing a chemical composition into a tank of a toilet. The system includes a sensor obtaining a parameter representative of an environment of the toilet. The dosing system further includes a non-transitory control unit receiving the parameter and generating an activation signal for triggering dispensing of an amount of the chemical composition into the tank based on the parameter. The system further includes a dosing device inserted inside the tank. The dosing device has a cavity containing the chemical composition and a dispensing mechanism coupled with the cavity. The dispensing mechanism receives the activation signal and dispenses the amount of chemical composition into the tank upon reception of the at least one activation signal.

A toilet for administering a product to a user is disclosed. The toilet includes a bowl, a mechanism for administering the product to the user, a storage structure for storing the product, a sensor that detects a property of the product, and a processor. The bowl is adapted to receiving excreta from the user. The processor compares the detected property with a range of values indicating the suitability of the product for being applied to a user. The processor generates an alert when the detected property falls outside the range of values.

A self-cleaning toilet is disclosed. The toilet includes a bowl adapted to receive excreta, a mechanism that uses a consumable to clean at least a portion of the toilet, a storage structure for storing the consumable, a sensor for detecting a property of the consumable, and a processor. The sensor detects a quantity of the consumable. The processor generates an alert if the quantity of consumable is below a predetermined level. The alert can include providing a maintenance alert, ordering more consumable, and enabling or disabling features of the toilet.

An analytical toilet is disclosed. The toilet includes a bowl for receiving excreta, a mechanism that uses a consumable for analyzing a sample of excreta, a storage structure for storing the consumable, a sensor that detects at least one property of the consumable, and a processor that generates an alert when the property is outside a predetermined parameter. The property the sensor detects can be used to determine at least one of the identity of the consumable, the quantity or supply of the consumable, or a property related to the suitability of the consumable.

A toilet rim block which consists of an outer cover and a core, and to a rim block cage including the toilet rim block. The outer cover includes a first composition and the core includes a second composition. Preferably, the first and the second compositions differ from each other by at least one of the following features: different active substances, different concentration but same active substance, and different viscosity. The outer cover partly encloses the core and the core protrudes on at least one face of the toilet rim block right to the surface as a pole and is exposed. The core is shaped such that the surface of the exposed area changes upon even wear of the surface of the toilet rim block, the surface of the exposed area of the core reducing upon even wear of the surface of the toilet rim block.

A device for a toilet bowl, including a mechanism for holding the toilet rim block to the toilet bowl. The invention further relates to at least one, preferably at least two toilet rim blocks, each having an outer cover and a core, and to a rim block cage including the toilet rim block. The outer cover includes a first composition and the core includes a second composition. Preferably, the first and the second compositions differ from each other by at least one of the following features: different active substances, different concentration but same active substance, and different viscosity. The outer cover partly encloses the core and the core protrudes on at least one face of the toilet rim block right to the surface as a pole and is exposed.
