Definitions
- This invention relates to a toilet system which simultaneously rise to achieve a comfortable usage and luxury as per user requirement and has features of adjustable pedestals and spa as one unit featuring five buttons for seat warmer, bidet jet spray, sound system, hydro- flush and automatic air freshener for exhausting noxious vapors from a toilet.
- the commercially available automatic toilet flushing systems generally operate on the principle of using a beam of radiation which can be interrupted to initiate a circuit operation and when the interruption, such as the person using the toilet system, removes himself from the interrupting position, a control circuit causes a flushing operation.
- the system described in the ⁇ 10 patent includes a suction means in air communication with the airspace between the water within the water tank and the lid of the tank.
- the suction device is capable of withdrawing the odorous air that moves from the toilet rim through an overflow pipe into the airspace, and subsequently disposing it away from the water closet through an exhaust pipe. Withdrawing the air from the airspace in a tightly closed water tank may create suction pressure especially when the toilet is flushed.
- the ⁇ 10 system requires a regulating valve to reduce suction in the water tank.
- the flush toilet exhaust systems disclosed in the '856 and '590 patents are also designed to withdraw the odorous air from the airspace above the water level inside the water tank.
- These systems include a sealing means ('856 patent) or a flexible strip ('590 patent) that can be installed at the upper edge of the water tank.
- the sealing means of the '856 patent is a hollow strip being in air communication with a hose connector and a blower.
- the sealing means defines holes facing the interior of the water tank for receiving the odorous air from the airspace. After the odorous air enters the sealing means, it is pulled into the hose connector for remote exhaust.
- the flexible strip of the '590 patent seals the lid of the tank to create an airtight space from which the odorous air is withdrawn. Both systems require a vent device to reduce the problem of undesirable suction when the toilet is flushed.
- the '544 patent describes a system that is designed to withdraw the odorous air from the upper end of the overflow pipe.
- This system includes a hollow, open bottom, vertical sleeve that is positioned over the upper end of the overflow pipe. The lower end of the sleeve terminates below the water level in the water tank so that a water seal is achieved to provide closed communication between the overflow passageway and the sleeve.
- the system also includes a means for creating low air pressure connected to the sleeve so that odorous air is drawn from the sleeve for remote exhaust.
- U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,831,670, and 5,369,816 disclose toilet systems having a weight activated flushing mechanism.
- This type of mechanism includes an electric motor that is activated by the weight of the user sitting on and then leaving the seat. When the motor is activated, the tripping mechanism trips the flush valve open to allow the water to flush.
- a major drawback for the weight activating flushing mechanism is that it does not operate when the user does not sit down on the seat. Therefore, when people who normally do not sit down on the seat for a urinal purpose use the toilet, the toilet will need to be flushed manually.
- a different flushing mechanism is disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 5,901,384.
- This mechanism comprises a motion sensing device positioned in the water tank and aligned with a window in the toilet cover when the cover is in a raised position.
- the motion-sensing device is operatively connected to a motor that drives an L-shaped lever that is connected to a flapper valve.
- the flushing system operates when the motion-sensing device is activated when the user uses the toilet and then moves away from the toilet.
- the motion-sensing device charges electric current to the motor, which drives the lever upward such that the flapper is lifted to open the valve for the water to flush.
- a similar flushing system is disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,141,091.
- This system comprises three functional blocks: an input sensor or switch, a logic control circuit and an Electromechanically operated liquid dispenser or flusher.
- the whole assembly which is attached to the inner side of the water tank, is hermetically sealed in order to protect the actuator against moisture and possible corrosion.
- the movable end of the plunger is with a chain or wire connected to the flush handle and drain valve.
- most of the components have to be fitted inside the water tank. Possible concerns of these systems are in the limitation of fitting all the parts into an existing toilet system and the need to modify the water tank and the toilet lid for positioning the motion-sensing device.
- This invention is also very much attractive for people who suffer temporary or permanent disabilities which may preclude easy usage and control during the bathroom usage. In other cases, forgetfulness or lack of attentiveness of impaired individuals may prevent them manually doing all jobs and thus facilitating them in efficient and effective way. In these and other situations, an automatic toilet "The Pedestool system" for private and public dwelling structures would be a significant advantage.
- the object of the fat separating device of the present invention is to fill the long-standing need for a fat or liquid separator that is easy to use, efficient, fast, economical, durable, safe, easy to clean and universally useful.
- the invention is a luxury Pedestal Toilet system, which is attached to the base as one unit a person depresses the button at the top of the container and the pedestal shoots straight out - what is crucial in the design is that there is no power required by electric or batteries to make the pedestal work, if not required the pedestal remains in its box when needed the pedestal is there at the touch of a button.
- Another object of the invention is to provide the user with five different features to the user while using the, "The Pedestool Dynamic Toilet system”.
- Another object of the invention relates to providing four different models of The Pedestool Dynamic Toilet system which user can select as per his/her person requirement and space.
- Another object of the invention relates to providing five different features installed in One Spa unit which includes seat warmer, bidet jet spray, sound system, hydro- flush and automatic air freshener
