Definitions

  • This invention concerns automatic public toilets. Especially this invention concerns cleaning arrangements of such toilets.
  • a typical automatic toilet has a technical equipment chamber separated from the toilet area by a technical chamber wall.
  • patent US5279008 describes an automatic toilet which has two toilet bowl attached to the same horizontal axis so that one bowl is inside the technical chamber for cleaning and the other in the toilet area for use. After each use, the bowls are rotated 180 degrees to bring the cleaned bowl into the toilet area and the soiled bowl into the technical chamber for cleaning.
  • Patents US5647074 , US5857228 and US5090069 also describe arrangements in which the toilet bowl is rotated into the technical chamber for cleaning. While these arrangements are able to clean the bowl well and limit the spraying of cleaning liquids into the toilet area, they do not address the need of cleaning the immediate surroundings of the toilet bowl, without which a toilet becomes quite odorous rather quickly.
  • the patent US6349430 addresses the need of cleaning the surroundings of the toilet bowl by arranging the floor of the toilet to be rotated into the technical chamber for cleaning.
  • Patent US8484772 describes an arrangement in which a mechanism lowers a plate from the technical chamber wall to provide an enclosed space for cleaning.
  • Patent US2605478 describes an arrangement with a cover with spraying equipment that is rotated around a horizontal axis from a vertical position to a horizontal position covering the toilet bowl for cleaning of the same.
  • Patent US5454123 describes a similar solution, but which employs horizontal movement of the cleaning arrangement and its cover.
  • Patent application WO06048490 describes a cleaning arrangement having a folding cover that can be unfolded from above the toilet bowl to cover the toilet bowl for cleaning action.
  • the invention solves the problems of prior art by arranging the toilet bowl to be situated substantially parallel to the technical chamber wall substantially at a first end of the technical chamber wall. Further, the cleaning function is arranged as an assembly that rotates out of the technical chamber wall along a substantially vertical rotation axis located substantially at the first end of the technical chamber wall.
  • the cleaning assembly comprises cleaning liquid nozzles for spraying cleaning liquid and/or rinsing water.
  • the cleaning assembly preferably also comprises drying nozzles for blowing pressurized air in order to dry the washed area.
  • the cleaning assembly preferably comprises a cover plate and a side plate for limiting the spread of cleaning liquid outside area under the cleaning assembly.
  • the positioning of the toilet bowl allows the cleaning assembly to cover the toilet bowl with a roughly 90 degree rotation along one axis, which allows the mechanism of the cleaning assembly to be simple and robust. Further, the positioning of the toilet bowl parallel to the technical chamber wall further allows cleaning and drying of the toilet bowl and toilet seat using machinery within the technical chamber wall - for example, drying of the toilet seat using air blown through an air vent in the technical chamber wall. Therefore, this positioning of the toilet bowl allows locating the components participating in the cleaning and drying cycle at the technical chamber wall, while minimising the complexity of moving parts needed to perform the cleaning and drying cycle.
  • the toilet comprises an arrangement for raising and lowering the toilet seat.
  • the toilet seat can be lowered on the toilet bowl in order to be cleaned in the cleaning cycle under the cleaning assembly, and raised after the cleaning cycle to be ready for next use and for finalizing drying of the seat in airflow blown through an air vent in the technical chamber wall.
  • the air that is blown through an air vent in the technical chamber wall for finalizing the drying of the toilet seat is heated in order to enhance the drying and for heating the toilet itself.
  • heating airflow is also used to dry the toilet seat.
  • Figure 1A illustrates several components of an automatic public toilet according to an embodiment of the invention, while figures 1B and 1C illustrate the movement of a cleaning assembly 100 according to an embodiment of the invention.
  • figure 1A does not show the external walls or other structures of the public toilet structure itself, but rather concentrates on components that provide the core functionality of a public toilet.
  • a typical automatic public toilet comprises a toilet area accessible by members of public and a technical equipment chamber for holding various technical equipment needed for the automation.
  • the technical equipment chamber is typically only accessible to service technicians.
  • a technical chamber wall 30 separates the technical equipment chamber from the toilet area.
