Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a novel sanitary cell with a device for automatically cleaning the toilet bowl.
  • DE-OS 22 63 946 deals with a sanitary facility which consists of at least two sanitary facilities housed in a closed space, for example a toilet and a sink.
  • the toilet bowl is cleaned by swiveling it underneath the washbasin.
  • liquid with a certain pressure is pressed into the toilet bowl via spray heads and cleaned in this way.
  • the disadvantage of this system is that here, too, users have to wait until the cleaning process has ended.
  • a completely different system is the device described in European patent application 0035471. It is a toilet system, in which two bowls are provided within a housing, which are attached to an inclined shaft. The mirrored toilet bowls can be swiveled around this shaft. The result is that the bowl, which is initially at the top, lies at the bottom after the rotation in order to be subjected to cleaning there.
  • the bowls used in European patent application 0035471 are not commercially available bowls, but rather specially adapted bowls. When viewed from the side, these have a triangular shape. After swiveling, the opening of the lower bowl does not lie in a horizontal plane, i.e. pointing downwards, but in a vertical plane, i.e. pointing to the side. However, optimal cleaning cannot be achieved in this position.
  • the opening of the drain pipe does not rotate in the cleaning tract, so that cleaning never takes place here. So you may have to clean it manually. The result is that the sanitary room is closed to visitors during the post-cleaning phase.
  • the movable side walls which each adjoin the housing of the toilet roll or the housing of the siphon, are also susceptible to contamination. These adjoining surfaces run the risk of dirt particles getting stuck there and leading to unsanitary conditions.
  • control and regulating devices are housed in the closed space. These parts are therefore just like the cleaning room with the nozzles fully monitored by staff during operation. Instead, the sanitary room must always be closed to visitors and the housing opened. Routine visual monitoring or even manual cleaning after operation of the system is therefore not possible without interrupting visitor traffic.
  • a sanitary cell is known from European patent application 0 199 682, which consists of a sanitary room with sanitary facilities and a technical room.
  • the partition between these two rooms consists of an immovable and movable part.
  • On the movable part two toilet bowls are attached, which are mounted opposite one another with their backs like mirrors.
  • the movable part is rotatable about a vertical axis, so that it is possible to rotate each toilet bowl from the user position to a cleaning position in the equipment room.
  • the disadvantage of the aforementioned systems is avoided that the sanitary room is not accessible to users during the cleaning process. Because while a toilet bowl is being cleaned in the technical room, there is a cleaned one in the user room.
  • the system according to EP 0 199 682 still has some disadvantages.
  • One is that by swiveling around a vertical axis, it is necessary to create sanitary cells that are sufficiently wide. This means that with the usual installation of several sanitary cells next to each other, the space requirement is greater than with conventional systems.
  • the automatic cleaning of the upright toilet bowl is associated with the risk of insufficient cleaning. Because on the one hand, water can only be sprayed into the toilet bowl to a limited extent, because the flow capacity of the drain pipe underneath is only limited. For this reason, the automatic system must be set to a longer cleaning time for adequate cleaning.
  • the object of the present invention is accordingly a sanitary cell consisting of a sanitary room accessible through a door with a toilet bowl and a wall rotating about a pivot axis, which separate the sanitary room and a technical room in which the facilities required for cleaning the toilet bowls are located separates and carries a toilet bowl arranged on each side, and a total of at least two technical rooms, the bowl located in the sanitary room being arranged so that it faces upwards with its opening, so that the disadvantages of the state described above technology no longer occur.
  • a further technical room is arranged below the floor of the sanitary room, the pivot axis is mounted horizontally, the toilet bowl located in the technical room is arranged so that it points downwards with its opening, and the floors of the sanitary and technical room are provided with openings at least in the area below the toilet bowls, so that the toilet bowls can be pivoted from the technical room through the technical room below the sanitary cell into the sanitary room.
  • the present invention thus relates to a sanitary cell which consists of a sanitary room accessible through a door and a wall which rotates about a swivel axis and which separates the sanitary room and an adjacent technical room from one another.
  • the equipment required for cleaning the toilet bowls is housed in the technical room.
  • the rotatable wall carries a toilet bowl on each side, the bowl located in the sanitary room facing upwards with its opening. while the bowl in the technical room is facing down with its opening.
  • the wall to which the two bowls are attached is arranged on a horizontally mounted axis.
  • a second technical room is located below the sanitary cell and the technical room.
  • the bowls When the bowls are swiveled, they pass through this technical room into the room next to the sanitary room. So that this swiveling movement can be carried out, the floor of the sanitary room is provided with hinged openings.
  • control and regulation devices housed in the technical room, which is accessible to the staff at all times, ie the necessary maintenance and monitoring activities can be carried out on the technical peripheral equipment during operation.
  • the staff can check at any time by visual inspection whether the cleaning facilities are actually working satisfactorily. Possibly. manual cleaning can even be carried out in the technical room.
  • the horizontal position of the opening of the toilet bowl located in the technical room and pointing downward is also of decisive advantage. Because here a complete cleaning and disinfection of dirt can be achieved.
  • Figure 1 shows the device according to the invention in supervision.
  • Figure 2 shows the system in side view.
  • the sanitary cell consists of a sanitary room 1, in which the toilet bowl is located in the illustration according to FIG. This toilet bowl is attached to the wall 3, on the back of which the toilet bowl 6 is located.
  • the sanitary room accessible to the user and the technical room are separated from one another by the wall 3.
  • the fittings required for cleaning the toilet bowl are housed in the technical room.
  • the system consists of at least two technical rooms 4 and 9.
  • the technical room 9 is arranged below the sanitary cell, while the technical room 4 is located on the same level as the sanitary room.
  • more than two technical rooms can also be provided.
  • the second additionally arranged technical room can contain additional devices in its partition to the sanitary room.
  • Attach an integrated hand wash basin here which is connected to the sanitary room through an opening in the wall.
  • a light barrier can be installed in this opening so that the water inlet is opened as soon as the user puts his hands through the opening. As soon as the user has withdrawn his hands into the sanitary room 1, the light barrier and water inlet close again.
  • the partition of the second additional technical room contains an opening in which, for example, a dispenser device for toilet rolls is attached. In this case too, the staff can refill the toilet rolls from the technical room.
  • the device consists of only two technical rooms 4 and 9 and the sanitary room 1.
  • the special feature of this system is that the openings in the toilet bowls 5 and 6 point in opposite directions. I.e. in the example according to FIG. 2, the opening 12 of the toilet bowl 5 points upwards, while the opening 11 of the toilet bowl 6 is directed downwards.
  • the system is oriented so that the toilet bowl located in the sanitary room 1 has its opening upward.
  • the toilet bowl located in the rear technical room also points downwards accordingly.
  • the toilet bowl is in the user function. ie with the opening 12 directed upwards.
  • the toilet bowl 6 can be cleaned with its opening 11 facing downwards.
  • the wall 3 with the toilet bowls 5 and 6 is pivoted about its vertical axis 2. After the pivoting process, the toilet bowl 6 is located in the sanitary room with the opening 11 facing upwards, while the toilet bowl 5 is arranged in the technical room with the opening 12 facing downwards.
  • the toilet bowl is pivoted from the technical room 4 through the technical room 9 into the sanitary room 1.
  • a pivoting in the opposite direction is also constructively possible.
  • additional cleaning devices would have to be provided in the technical room 9 in such a structural configuration.
  • a closure cap is provided in the toilet bowl or the drain pipe, which prevents residues of faeces from falling out or dripping when swiveled.
  • a drain pipe designed in the usual way can be provided for the discharge of the faeces. This means that downward-facing pipes can be provided. These can be connected to pipes arranged in the wall 3.
  • Another possibility is to arrange a horizontal line in the swivel axis, through which the faeces are sucked off by applying a vacuum. This construction has the advantage that odor nuisances are largely excluded.
  • the floor of the technical room 4 is provided with an opening.
  • the sanitary room which is provided below the toilet bowl 5 with a movable flap 14.
  • the bottom 16 can be pivoted down in its entirety.
  • the floor 16 is fastened to the wall 17 by means of a hinge 18, so that the entire floor in the area of the rotating wall 3 is folded down and an inclined plane is formed.
  • the floor is then rinsed with high-pressure lamps, which are located above the hinges, and then dried if necessary.
  • the opening 13 can also be closed by other mechanisms.
  • the jet arms 7 and 8. These can be given away so that the wall 3 and the attached toilet bowls 5 and 6 can be cleaned with water under high pressure and then dried with an air stream. Characterized in that the toilet bowl 6 located in the technical room is directed with its opening 11 downward, the possibility is opened without any additional mechanical cleaning device, for example brushes.
  • the water masses sprayed into the toilet bowl under high pressure can have a cleaning effect down to the deepest regions of the toilet bowl, because no water can be found in the lower part of the toilet bowl due to the reverse position. This means that the effect of the jet is not hindered by the water that is normally at the drain.
  • the cleaning can be done in a shorter time because the water no longer has to drain through the drain pipe, but can drain through the wide downward opening 11 and the congestion effect otherwise occurring through the narrowing drain pipe cannot occur for the draining water.
  • additional cleaning devices can be accommodated in the technical room 9 below the floor 10.
  • the flap 14 pivoted downward can be cleaned with nozzle arms or other mechanical devices.
  • the floor 10 can be swung out as a whole, the floor can be subjected to cleaning as a whole.
  • the devices, which may possibly be accommodated in the technical room 9, are not shown in the drawing.
