Floating automatic toilet bowl cleaning device
The invention relates to free floating automated toilet bowl cleaning devices that dispense a volatile composition (e.g., a fragrance) into air surrounding the toilet and dispense a cleaning composition (e.g., hypohalite bleach) into toilet tank water on which the device freely floats. The device includes a first compartment for housing the volatile composition. The first compartment is permeable to air, with the permeable portion of the first compartment positioned above a water line when the device is floated. The device includes a second compartment for housing the cleaning composition. The second compartment includes one or more inlets through the device body to allow fluid communication with the liquid on which the device floats during use. A floatation member is positioned above the second compartment (e.g., between the first and second compartments).
CHEMICAL ANALYSIS OF URINE AND FECES VAPOR
A gas sensor system is for use in, or in the vicinity of, a toilet, for detecting a target gas. A gas sensor detects a concentration of at least the target gas and a further, reference, gas which is received from a controlled gas release device. These concentrations are processed to obtain a concentration of the target gas relative to the concentration of the further gas by combining a change in the detected concentration of the target gas, a change in the detected concentration of the further gas, the sensitivity of the gas sensor system to the target gas and the sensitivity of the gas sensor system to the further gas. This approach avoids the need for extensive calibration operations to tune the sensor response to the environment in which it is used.
Systems, Devices, and/or Methods for Managing Toilet Fragrances
Certain exemplary embodiments can provide a system, which comprises a turbine wheel assembly. The turbine wheel assembly comprises a turbine wheel compartment. The turbine wheel compartment is constructed to be coupled to a fan. The fan can be coupled to a cartridge. The turbine wheel compartment is coupleable to a toilet fill valve assembly such that the turbine wheel assembly is housed within a toilet tank. The turbine wheel assembly comprises a turbine wheel.
FLUSH TOILET
Afforded are: a toilet body including a toilet bowl part, a rim conduit 36, and a rim part; and a functional component mounted on an upper surface part of the toilet body, rearward of the toilet bowl part. The upper surface part includes a cut-out part formed such as to be recessed downward from the other part of the upper surface part. The functional component is disposed on the cut-out part such as to be partially positioned downward with respect to an upper surface of the rim part, and such as to be partially stuck out into the toilet bowl part from upon the cut-out part, and, on a bottom surface of the stuck-out part, the functional component is provided with a conduit forming surface serving as an upper surface of the rim conduit.
Air freshener dispenser assembly
An air freshener dispenser assembly includes a dispensing unit for containing a chemical fragrance. The dispensing unit releases a measured amount of the chemical fragrance when the dispensing unit is turned on. In this way the dispensing unit can enhance odors associated with an area proximate the dispensing unit. A pair of switches is each of the switches is coupled the dispensing unit and each of the switches is turned on when a user sits on the seat. The dispensing unit is turned on when the switches are turned on. In this way the dispensing unit reduces odors associated with the user employing the toilet.
Splash Screen
This invention relates to a urinal screen includes a partially top half covered surface of the urinal screen placed by a means for detaching, a plurality of slits is placed on a bottom half of the urinal screen and a plurality of detachable adhesive tabs to adhere the urinal screen on a plurality of sides from a top to bottom end of a front portion of a urinal. Further, the plurality of detachable adhesive tabs is an adhesive strip having a peel off back.
TOILET ODOR REDUCING EXPANDABLE BALL
A device and method for reducing odor and splash in a toilet is provided. The device includes a plurality of dissolvable layers. An outer layer is configured to retain the inner layer in a compressed and compact shape prior to being saturated. The inner layer is surrounded at least partially by the outer layer. When saturated, the inner layer is configured to distribute across the surface of the water. The inner layer creates a barrier across the surface of the water and selectively releases an aromatic scent into the air. The device may be inserted into the toilet bowl at any time. The dissolvability rates of the various layers may be different from each other. Such rates may also be designed to be of different periods of time to suit particular needs.
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.
Toilet management system and management device
A toilet management system includes a toilet bowl device installed in a toilet room, a management device configured to manage a use situation of the toilet bowl device, and a communication device configured to transmit use situation information related to the use situation of the toilet bowl device to the management device. The management device includes an acquirer configured to acquire the use situation information from the communication device, and an abnormality detector configured to detect an abnormality of the toilet bowl device or a facility or equipment installed inside or around the toilet room when the use situation information acquired by the acquirer matches a predetermined condition.
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.
