20230059932 · 2023-02-23 ·

An ozone mitigation system reduces the amount of ozone that is expelled from a toilet or another water consuming appliance. The ozone mitigation system may include an ozone generator in communication with a tank of the water consuming appliance. An air source and a power source may be connected to the ozone generator. An ozone flow restrictor or ozone eliminator is operable inside of the tank and configured to modify a flow of ozone from the ozone generator through the toilet tank.

Dosing system and method for dispensing at least one chemical composition inside the tank of a toilet

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.

Self cleaning toilet assembly and system

Toilet assemblies having various embodiments of a cleaning system are described herein which include a toilet assembly and a cleaning system. The toilet assembly has a toilet bowl, a toilet tank, a flush valve, a rim inlet port and a rim flow path (which may be an isolated rim path) extending from an outlet of the flush valve to the rim inlet port. The cleaning system has a reservoir for holding a liquid cleaning agent having an outlet port in fluid communication with the interior space of the reservoir body; a housing to receive the reservoir, a supply conduit in fluid communication with the interior of the reservoir; a flow control device capable of controlling flow through the supply conduit; and a control system activatable by an actuator feature, wherein upon activation of the actuator feature, the control system is adapted to initiate a clean cycle by: operating the flow control device for a first period of time sufficient to deliver a dose of a liquid cleaning agent from the supply conduit to an interior space of the flush valve in a closed position, the flush valve configured for delivery of fluid to the rim inlet port, and operating the flush valve to open the flush valve to introduce flush water to carry the dose of a liquid cleaning agent through the rim inlet port into the toilet bowl.

FLUID DISPENSING DEVICE ACTUATED BY PRESSURE VARIATIONS IN A MAIN CIRCUIT
20170314248 · 2017-11-02 ·

The dispensing device is comprised of a hollow body, divided into a pressurisation chamber and a dispensing chamber using conversion media of the pressure variations into volume variations of the dispensing chamber designed as an elastomer, which has a cavity constituting the actual dispensing chamber, whilst the pressurisation chamber is connected to an inlet tap which has a restriction and ends with an inlet valve and the dispensing chamber to an intermediate section of a secondary circuit which ends at each end in check valves which extend the secondary circuit with a downstream section and an upstream section, the latter being connected to a tank with the product to be dispensed. The closing of the inlet valve leads to a reduction in the volume of the dispensing chamber due to the compression of the elastomer, ejecting the fluid to be dispensed.
