Description

DESCRIPTION

Hygienic protector for toilets.

TECHNICAL SECTOR

The present invention relates to a hygienic protector for toilets, specifically intended to prevent adhesion of faeces on the internal surface of a toilet.

The invention has multiple objectives, among which the following should be highlighted:

• Avoid soiling the toilet after a person performs the physiological action of defecating,

• Avoid splashing

• Provide an antiseptic product.

• Prevent contagion diseases.

• Sanitize the walls of the toilet.

• Avoid using brushes, eliminating the risk of contamination of the hands.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Normally, in the physiological act of defecating, fouling of the toilet occurs due to the very nature of the faeces, so that bristle brushes are used to keep the toilet clean.

However, the problems that are subject to this process are known, with the danger that this implies. The formation or accumulation of bacteria, germs and viruses both in the toilet and on the brush and on the handle of the same. Those pathogens (eg legionella, E. Coli bacteria, Enterococci, etc.) threaten our health to a great extent.

The brush handle is touched and can therefore harbor and transmit large numbers of viruses, germs, and bacteria. Also in times of the flu, for example by sneezing in the hand or coughing, the mango can be contaminated by viruses. With each use of the brush we can become infected with the pathogens mentioned, many of them multi-resistant. In addition, with the brush, pathogenic and dangerous germs and bacteria, are simply spread in the toilet, spreading and staying on the internal walls of said toilet, but are not eliminated. They also cause splashes, unpleasant odor, unsightly appearance of the brush and support, poor hygiene, etc.

All the products in this range often demonstrate the same health-threatening problem:

• Fecal debris (and toilet paper) gets caught in the brush and can only be removed with great difficulty.

• Using the brush almost always splashes the area around the toilet and floor.

• The brush holder is an excellent nest for germs and dangerous bacteria.

• The remaining dirty water accumulates in the brush holder, and after a short time it begins to smell unpleasant.

• Aesthetically, a used brush in its holder does not look good.

• The risk of contamination or infection with dangerous viruses, bacteria and germs is highly imminent.

• This type of brushes are not recyclable, and must be disposed of in a traditional way, in landfills, which supposes a high degree of contamination of the environment, this problem being increased in facilities such as hotels, restaurants and the like.

EXPLANATION OF THE INVENTION

The hygienic protector for toilets that is recommended solves the aforementioned problems in a fully satisfactory way, based on a simple but effective solution, avoiding the need for brushes and tools of this type.

For this, the device of the invention is embodied in a sheet body that is made of water-soluble material, which has folding lines for adaptation to the internal surface of the toilet, folding being supplied for a minimum volumetric occupation until the moment of its use, a laminar body that in a folding situation has an essentially triangular or heart-shaped configuration, without ruling out other configurations, so that once deployed, an extremely fast and simple maneuver, it adopts a configuration that is substantially similar to the internal contour of the toilet, with its corresponding hole, to allow it to be adapted on it, so that in the physiological action of stool deposition they fall on the laminar body and not on the internal surface of the toilet, so that when the cistern is operated, the entire assembly is dragged down the drain so that the stool does not ever touch the inner surface na of the toilet.

Therefore, it is a single-use product, which serves to prevent the appearance of faecal remains in the toilet and thus avoid contamination and reproduction of germs, bacteria or viruses and their infection, with the special feature that those who they do not want to give up their brush, they can gain a very advantageous complement to hygiene with the eliminator described, for everyday use in the bathroom.

The device thus described can be impregnated with odorizing and / or sanitizing products.

It is therefore a hygiene product both in private homes and hospitals, hotels, public establishments, nursing homes and in all those places where hygiene and cleanliness are of importance.

From this structuring, the following advantages are derived:

• Easy to use.

• 100% hygienic.

• Prevents the generation of splashes

• Suitable for young children.

• Neutralizes the odor with its pleasant aroma.

• Avoid repulsion by not having to handle the leftover when cleaning with traditional methods.

• Savings of approximately up to 1 cubic meter per month of water per family by minimizing the cistern drives.

• Recyclable, being able to be eliminated through the toilet since it dissolves with water and does not obstruct the drain, preventing contamination.

• Respect for the environment.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

To complement the description that will be made below and in order to help a better understanding of the characteristics of the invention, according to a preferred example of practical embodiment thereof, a set of drawings is included as an integral part of said description. where, by way of illustration and not limitation, the following has been represented:

Figure 1.- Shows a perspective view of a hygienic protector for toilets made according to the object of the present invention in an inoperative situation, that is to say, folded with a minimum volumetric occupation.

Figure 2.- Shows a perspective view of the device in deployment position.

Figure 3.- Shows a plan view of the application of the device on a toilet.

Figure 4.- Shows, finally, a perspective view of a stack of properly folded devices.

PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION

In view of the reviewed figures, it can be seen how the hygienic protector for toilets is constituted from a laminar body (1), of a water soluble nature, such as paper or the like.

The laminar body (1) has fold lines (2) to achieve its folding, as shown in Figure 1, adopting a configuration in the shape of a triangle or heart, without ruling out other configurations.

In any case, the laminar body (1) will include a cut (3) on its vertex that in the unfolding thereof defines a hole (4) that coincides formally and positionally with the toilet drain (5), when the device is applied on it, as shown in figure 3.

The sheet body will be supplied in stacks like the one shown in figure 4, to be used as a unit, being able to be dispensed through the corresponding box, not shown in the figures, for its transport, storage and dispensing.

As mentioned previously, the device constitutes a barrier that prevents the toilet from getting dirty with the faeces, and that is easily eliminated with said faeces simply by acting on the corresponding cistern.

The device thus described can be impregnated with odorizing and / or sanitizing / antiseptic products, thus counteracting odors that may have been generated during use.

Claims (3)

1st.- Hygienic protector for toilets, characterized in that it is constituted from a laminar body, of a water-soluble nature, of dimensions according to the internal surface of the toilet (5) on which it is applied, having a hole (4 ) formally and positionally coincides with the toilet drain (5). 2a.- Hygienic protector for toilets, according to claim 1, characterized in that the laminar body (1) has fold lines (2) for folding, adopting in this folding position an essentially triangular configuration, in which one of its vertices match hole (4). 3 a.- Hygienic protector for toilets, according to claim 1, characterized in that the laminar body is impregnated with odorizing and / or sanitizing / antiseptic products.
