FR2518608A1 - Disinfectant dispenser for WC - comprises bottle containing small orifice through which disinfectant discharges into water - Google Patents

Abstract

The automatic distributor for disinfectant into water in the reservoir or pipe of a w.c. comprises a bottle (1) containing the disinfectant which has an outlet orifice (a) of small dia. The bottle is supported by a bracket (4) which holds the bottle horizontal when in use. The orifice (a) is contained in the top of the bottle. The amount of disinfectant released into the water depends on the size of the orifice and the viscosity of the disinfectant.

Description

SELF-DISPENSING DEVICE FOR LIQUID AGENT
The invention relates to no tam.ent dispensing devices for water tanks, especially for toilets.

 The present invention consists in bringing out at will a mixture of water and deodorizing liquid. disinfectant.

In existing devices of this kind
- there is a device working with a rinsing agent, solid contained in a container having two holes to different height for the circulation of water patent 2403949,
- There is also a patent 224488Q, device com Dormant a rectangular box with a hole in one of the large faces of the box and a second hole in the cover placed in the upper part. The additional product being poured into the lower part of the container, a deflector is provided opposite the hole of the large face through which between the water, this deflector directing the water towards the additional product,
- there is also a patent device 1256631 for removing water from places of comfort with two holes. An envelope containing the disinfectant and a means of attachment to the flush, has two openings or groups of openings . The first located in 13 zone occupied by the product, the second in an area which is not in contact with the product. the envelope being arranged in the tank in such a way that the first group of openings can be reached by the water filling the tank.

 The Darticularity of the invention is the use of an agent contained in a bottle having only one orifice and working horizontally.

 It offers two possibilities of use a) Immersion in a toilet flush.

b) Simple contact with water circulation
in the toilet bowl without a tank
of water.

In reference two representative drawings
Fig. L Front view of the assembly.

 Fig. 2 Detail of the assembly hanging device.

 Fig. 3 Detail of a variant of the shutter system.

 Said container is composed of a preferably circular bottle (1) with an average capacity of 125 ml to 250 ml for calf flushes, 60 ml to 100 ml for toilet bowls.

with a reservoir made of a material, for example plastic or glass, or of metal resistant to corrosive products. The container is closed by a flat cap (2), screwed or not. ke said cap is pierced in its center to a variable diameter depending on the disinfectant used.

for example between 2 and 4 ave.

 It is possible to center the hole (a) downwards but this requires a positioning mark for the bottle on its support (4).

 The flat plug (2) can be replaced by a conical plug (3) comprising one or more cutout marks (r) to obtain the diameter (a) of satisfactory operation.

 Figure 3 shows a sectional view of the device using in one case a conical plug (3) and in Figure 1 a flat plug (2).

 In order to have the best possible operation of the device, a certain precision on the diameter of the hole (a) will be necessary, for this it is necessary to provide a perfectly sealed plug for storage and transport and another comprising the hole already drilled in corresponding diameter. As a variant, the closure of the bottle during storage or transport can be done by a plastic disc or cup introduced into the stopper with reduced orifice and being applied to the surface of the neck by tightening the said stopper thus ensuring tightness of the bottle.

For commissioning, it will suffice to remove the patch obstructing the orifice of the plug; or a stopper provided with a tab for closing the orifice which is released by simple folding of this tab. A metal supoort t4) rolled up automatically from the bottle (1) holds it in working condition, its end is curved in the shape of a hook to allow suspension in the flush tank. This support preferably provides un-maintain sufisamç ment tight of the bottle to allow alternatively a vertical arrangement thereof.

Operation
Originally the bottle (1) is filled with disinfectant and submerged in the desired location. When circulating water in the tank, there is a small proportional flow in the diameter of the hole (a) and dependent on the viscosity of the product. It is this exchange by osmosis with the medium outside the bottle (1) which will ensure the function of the device, that is to say disinfectant, deodorization.

 According to the different products used, it has appeared that a difference in viscosity between them leads to a variation in the diameter of the port (a) of the plug.

 Tests have been carried out showing perfect reliability of the device used in a horizontal position.

 Depending on the desired goal, pure products or mixtures can be used. The device which is the subject of the invention can also be used in all cases where the removal of a dye, a disinfectant or a deodorant from a device must also be ensured in a precise and easy manner.

 Particularly interesting applications can our disinfection and deodorization of toilets applicable in all environments.
