Air Purification Device
An air purification device for maintaining a clean smelling bathroom includes a housing, which is mountable to a tank of a toilet, and a plurality of bulbs, which is mountable to an underside of a seat of the toilet. An opening is positioned in the housing to vent the housing. A tube is attached to and extends from the housing to a bowl of the toilet. A battery, a pump, and a filter are attached to and positioned in the housing. The battery is operationally engaged to the pump and the bulbs, positioning the bulbs to selectively illuminate an area proximate to the toilet. The pump draws air from the bowl through the tube into the housing, where the filter absorbs malodorous compounds in the air to purify the air, thus maintaining a clean smell in proximity to the toilet.
Toilet ventilation system
Provided is a toilet ventilation system and a method of ventilating a toilet bowl. In one configuration, the toilet ventilation system includes a raised seat assembly including ventilation tubing secured to the undersurface thereof, the seat being removably securable to a toilet pedestal shelf and positionable on top of a rim of the toilet bowl, with a ventilation system coupled therewith. In another embodiment a short elbow pipe is secured with an end within the bowl area, affixed to a ventilation system. The ventilation system includes a pipe tee having a delivery pipe in fluid communication with a suction pump, such as a wet-dry vacuum. By operating the motor of the suction pump, the suction pump draws odorous air out of the toilet bowl, through the ventilation system, and delivers the same into the outside environment.

Filtration assembly for reducing malaodors in air and aerosolized waste from toilets
An assembly for filtering toilet bowl odors including a first housing respectively disposed in spaced relation to and in fluid communication with the toilet bowl. A conduit connects interiors of the first and second housings in fluid communication with one another. A fan assembly is mounted within said first housing in fluid communicating relation with second housing, via the conduit, and is disposed and structured to define a path of fluid flow extending from an inlet of said second housing, through said conduit and a filter assembly, disposed in the first housing and/or second housing, to the exterior of said first housing, concurrent to activation of the fan assembly.

Toilet and bathroom exhaust system
A toilet and bathroom exhaust system of the present invention provides a single system that handles both the removal of noxious air in an around the toilet and dehumidification of the air in the entire room. An intake manifold may be configured to be 1) attached to the bottom of the toilet lid; 2) attached to the top of the toilet rim; or 3) integrated into the toilet rim with the water drainage supply lines for flushing. The noxious air can be routed via an exhaust fan outside the house. The exhaust fan may also be configured to route noxious air into the trap area in the toilet. Proximity and humidity sensors may be used for further control and automation of the system.

AIR EXHAUST APPARATUS AND TOILET BOWL COMPRISING SAME
An air exhaust apparatus for use in conjunction with a flush toilet system having a rinsing liquid source and a toilet bowl configured with a rinsing inlet and a waste outlet. The air exhaust apparatus having: a housing constituting a gas tight space, a flushing conduit extending through the housing and having a front portion couplable to the rinsing inlet, and a rear portion couplable to the rinsing liquid source; the flushing conduit is configured with a suction opening disposed within the gas tight space. The suction opening is fitted with a liquid flow prevention mechanism configured for preventing rinsing liquid from flowing into the gas tight space during rinsing liquid flow towards the toilet bowl through the flushing conduit. A waste conduit extends through the housing and having a front portion couplable to the waste outlet, and a rear portion couplable to a sewage line; the waste conduit is configured with a gas discharge port disposed within the gas tight space. A gas propelling unit is disposed within the gas tight space and being in flow communication with the gas discharge port and configured to selectively propel gas in direction from the suction opening towards the gas discharge port and a gas flow valve is configured to selectively propel gas in a direction between the suction opening and the gas discharge port when the gas propelling unit is active.
