This invention relates to a water distributor for use in a toilet bowl flush rim and to a flush xim including the water distributor.
It is known in the prior art to provide various types of water.distributors in conjunction with downwardly open toilet flush r.ims. These distributors insure rela-tively uniform cleaning arou-nd the bowl, without requiring complex molding o~ the rim and without the problems closed rims sometimes have. In U.S. Patent 158,896, a perforated pipe was used for this pur~ose. In U.S.
~ Patent 3,212,106, a plastic tubing with regular per-:-~ forations was held in place in the rim by an interference :~ fit. In another design, a strip of flexible material was used for water distribution purposes in the flush rim of U.S. Patent 4,106,131.
;:~ However, prior art water distributors often required some type of special projection formed in the rim to secure the distributor in the rim, or required the use of special tools, or required excessive installa-tion time. This added to the cost of molding the toilet and:installing the distributor. In some cases, there was even chipping and breakage of tne projections.
Another~problem was that~for water~conservation~
purposes, it was desired to direct the.water towards~
the inner wall of the bowl in a somewhat horizontal direction (to improve cleaning~effectiveness~. Thus, the art attempted to constructions~such a9 that shown~

~L2~905 in U.S. Patent 4,234,975 in which a conventional ~losed rim was used, but a separate sub-structure was required for horizontally directing the wate~..
Thus, the ohject of the present invention is to provide an improved water distributor for an ope~-type flush rim.
The present invention provides a water distributor suitable for use in a downwardly ope~ flush rim o~ a toilet bowl, the rim being of the type having a fixed top wall and fixed at least partially downwardly directed sidewalls with one sidewall having a flushing water inlet, said sidewalls being of the type devoid of support projections or grooves for the distributor, the distributor being freely removable from said rim, comprising a flexible compressible tube por-tion positionable under the top wall below said inlet tofollow the bowl periphery with an upper surface suitable to support water flow in the :rim above and outside o the tube, the tubular portion capable of being deformed to provide compressive retention of said distributor in said rim with-out the need for an adhesive; a flexible generally flatplanar side surface guide portion tangentially connected to the tube portion and extending above and below said tangen-tial connection and positionable along one of the rim side-: walls, and said guide portion having a plurality of at least ~:: 25 somewhat downwardly directable water channels, said water . channels extending through said planar portion to permit communication between a space above the distributor water support surface in the rim and the space below the distribu-tor in the bowl, at least one of which extends in a manner 30 ~to be in open co~munication with the rim sidewall such that :~ : the rim sidewall can form a sidewall for t~e channel.

surfaces of the sidewalls of the rim are devoid of support projections for the water distributor. The distributor is sufficiently compressible to be normally held in place under the top wall and between the side walls by the compressive force of the distributor against the side walls.
In accordance with the one embodiment, when water is introduced into the rim, it will flow in a conduit provided by the top and side walls of the rim and the upper surface of the distributor. It will then pass through the channels to a lower portion of the toilet. Preferably the side walls of the flush rim converge downwardly and the distributor is formed in part with a tubular structure, with a strip acljacent to the tube in which ~he water channels are formed.
In an especially preferred Eorm, the tube and guide portions can be formed together in a one-piece construction. The tube portion is s~itable to distribute the water from the:toilet tank. When the water pressure is sufficient, water will be foreced over the tubular portion (or if desired through the tubular portion and out radial holes formed at regularly spaced locations along the tube) and then down towards the toilet bowl inner wall. The guide structure orces the water to flow in a partially horizontal direction, and permits the water to flow directly against the bowl inner wall. The hori-æontal force component that the guide gives the water enhances cleaning and thus lowers the amount of water needed.
The flexible nature of the water distributor and its compressibility are sufficient to hold it inside the rim. ~hus no additional projections formed on the inside of the rim are needed. The distributor can be ~' inserted under the rim simply by pushing it up from underneath and can be removed without special tools or skills.

A water distributor 10 is best shown in Figure 4. It is pre~erably formed from an extrudable vi.n~l plastic such as Geon (R.T.M.) (obtained from B.F.
Goodrich, Co.). After the extrusion, slits 11 are cut through the strip 12 preferably at an angle of 45 with respect to the longitudinal axis of the integral tube portion 13.
The distributor 10 can be used in conjunction with a toilet 14 having a downwardly open flush rim 15.
Water is carried from the toilet tank to the flush rim by suitable piping. At least one end of the outlet of the piping is positioned above the top surface 24 of the tube portion 13 or, alternatively, the piping outlet may be attached to a longitudinal end 16 of the distribu-tor 10.
As best seen in Figure 2, the flush rim 15 has ~ an ou~er side wall 17 which melds into the inner lower : wall of the toilet bowl 18. There is also a downwardly directed inner rim side wall 19. Opposed walls 18 and 19 con~erge slightly to form a conduit 20.

The linear water distributor is flexible so as to be able to bend to conform to the round shape of the rim, and the tube portion 13 is inwardly compressible (compare Figure 2 and Figure 4~ so that the distributor can be squeezed between walls 17 and 19 into the pocket 20. Once installed, the strip 12 abuts against the wall 17, and the tube 13 abuts against the wall 19. The configuration of distributor as shown in Figures ~ and 5 is preferred as it assists in the insertion into the pocket 20. As indicated in Figure 2 the distributor can be of a more oval configuration.
From Fi~ure 5, one can see that the tube portion 13 has a series of outlets 21 on its radial periphery.
Strip 12 is for guiding purposes. It extends out from the outer wall of the tube portion 13. Slits 11 form a plurality of partially clownwardly directed water channels 23.
As best seen in Figure 5, khe radial openings ~1 are in direct communication ~ith the water ch ~ els 23 so as to form a continuous flow path. The strip 12, in this view, appears to be almost tangential to the tube.
In an especially preferred form, the water channels 23 extend completely through the strip 12 in the radial direction, so that one wall 17 of the flush rim 15 can form end walls for the channels (see Figures

Strip 12 is for guiding purposes. It extends out from the outer wall of the tube portion 13. Slits 11 form a plurality of partially clownwardly directed water channels 23.
As best seen in Figure 5, khe radial openings ~1 are in direct communication ~ith the water ch ~ els 23 so as to form a continuous flow path. The strip 12, in this view, appears to be almost tangential to the tube.
In an especially preferred form, the water channels 23 extend completely through the strip 12 in the radial direction, so that one wall 17 of the flush rim 15 can form end walls for the channels (see Figures
2 and 3).
The present invention can easily be assembled ; in the rim. One simply inserts the distributor 10 under the rim, and it holds itself in place. No special tools are required for this purpose (although to expedite matters further, one could use a flat-bladed tool to push the distributor up into the rim). The distributor can be easily removed for replacement. A pointed tool can pierce into the tubular portion 13, and one can then exert a downward pressure.

If desired, water could instead be introduced through inlet 16 into the inside of tube 13. Xn such case water would travel therethrough and out through the radial outlets 21 and into slits 23.
Tube 13 is the preferred form of a compressible portion for compressive positioning in the rim 15. If desired the tube 13 could instead be a solid mass of compressible material and function in the previously described manner with the strip 12 and slits 23.
The slits 11 have been illustrated as being at a 45 angle with respect to the longitudinal axis of the tubular member. However, this angle is no~ critical.
