Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a sanitary article arrangement according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the DE 29 810 772 such a device, wherein a toilet brush is arranged above the toilet bowl, and is then moved from above into the toilet bowl during the cleaning process and cleans the inner walls of the toilet bowl by a rotational movement.
  • the WO 03/102315 suggests cleaning the surfaces of a toilet bowl with a spray arm.
  • the prior art has the disadvantage that the structures of the proposed automatic toilet cleaning devices are very complicated, as a result of which the cleaning devices are prone to malfunctions and / or as a result of which the cleaning result is not always satisfactory.

In other words, the sanitary body is moved relative to the at least one stationary nozzle.
  • the movement of the sanitary body relative to the at least one cleaning nozzle has the advantage that the number of cleaning nozzles can be kept small, while a good cleaning result can be achieved at the same time.
  • the sanitary body preferably moves in such a way that the entire inner surface can be sprayed with the cleaning fluid.
  • the cleaning fluid is preferably water. However, it is also conceivable that a different type of cleaning fluid is used. For example, a mixture of water and a disinfectant and / or a cleaning agent.
