Definitions

  • a device for the automatic rinse water-controlled dispensing of a liquid cleaning agent into a toilet bowl is mainly known at the end of a flush, in which a product container arranged in the rinse water storage tank is rotatably mounted. It is designed so that it is in its rest position due to buoyancy of the rinsing water in the filled storage tank and rotates when the rinsing water level is lowered such that a metered amount of product is dispensed into the last half of the escaping rinsing water from its closure.
  • This device has some disadvantages.
  • the device can only dispense the product to be dosed into the last half of the rinse water, so it cannot prevent part of the dosed product from being carried away directly into the wastewater. This may make sense for a cleaning agent, which is why the claim of this utility model only refers to the supply of a cleaning agent.
  • a cleaning agent e.g. Disinfectant or fragrance solutions
  • a large part of the product would be discharged into the wastewater without any effect and thus unnecessarily pollute it. This disadvantage cannot be avoided with this device.
  • Another, more important disadvantage is that it can only be installed in the cistern. These are very cumbersome to open and are becoming even more difficult to access due to increasing integration into the wall. It would therefore make more sense to develop a device that can simply be hung in the toilet bowl.
  • the toilet sticks which have been produced in large numbers for many years, are known to be hung in the toilet bowl lying in a water-permeable container.
  • a small part of the amount of rinsing water runs through the toilet stick and detaches some cleaning (or disinfectant) substance from the toilet stick and, to the grief of consumers and manufacturers, carries the substances with it into the wastewater.
  • the toilet stick is perfumed, most of the perfume that has been rinsed off is also carried away into the wastewater, without having contributed to improving the air in the toilet. This fact naturally leads to violent attacks by those concerned with the environment. They recommend that you do without the products that can only be used to a very small extent. The situation is very similar for cistern additives.
  • the total amount of water in a flushing process is enriched with the active substances, although they are flushed with the water through the toilet into the waste water in a matter of seconds and only a very small part in the Toilet bowl remains and can act there.
  • the product container (1) consists of a hollow body (2), a spout (3) and a cap (4), which is located on this spout.
  • the container (1) is filled with product up to level (10).
  • the cap has two opposite openings (5), which are the only ones that ensure air exchange with the product container. They are attached so that when the product container is at rest (Fig. 1) they are to the right of the opening of the spout (3).
  • the product container is located in a rinsing water collecting container (8a and 8b) divided into two containers by the partition (7).
  • the product container can be rotated in point (6) in such a way that its upper part with spout and cap can turn 90 ° to the left.
  • water flows into the two open containers (8a and 8b).
  • some water runs out of the openings (9a and 9b) at the same time, but less than flows in from above. So the containers fill with water.
  • the lower part of the product container is pushed upwards because it is hollow at the bottom.
  • the anchorage in point (6) ensures that evasion before the buoyancy can only take place in such a way that rotation follows.
  • the product container tilts back into its rest position (Fig. 3).
  • some product had collected in the cap (4), which partly flows back into the product container via the spout during the tilting-back movement.
  • Only the amount (less than 1 ml) that had been under the spout in the position in Fig. 2 no longer flows back into the product container, but via the lower opening (5) of the cap (4) into the water collecting container (8a ), which still contains a small amount of rinse water. Mixed with this, the product drops enter the toilet bowl. The required amount of product has been dosed. The process is repeated for the next rinse.
  • the water collecting container is filled with water, the position of the product container is the same as in FIG. 8. It has already released the necessary amount of product into the product container. Only the water level that is above the product container should actually be symbolized.
  • the water level in the storage tank drops very quickly. If it drops below the height of the dosing cap, the water collecting container runs empty, so that it becomes lighter again, can tip back and thereby releases the product into the remaining amount of rinsing water.
  • the speed of the empty run is determined by the size of the outlet opening and is such that the collection container has become empty even before the water tank is emptied, so that the product container tilts back and doses product into the last part of the rinsing water to take it to the toilet bowl reach.
