Abstract

A flushing arrangement is provided for a toilet siphon, the toilet siphon having at least one venting aperture. The flushing arrangement includes valve means associated with the venting aperture and user actuable control means for actuating a toilet flush in the toilet siphon in use. The valve means are movable between a closed flushig position, wherein air is prevented from entering the siphon via said venting aperture, and an open position, wherein air can enter the siphon via said venting aperture and the flush is terminated. Connection means are provided between the user actuable control means and the valve means, such that actuation of said user actuable control means in use results in movement of said valve means from said open position to said closed position. The connection means including resilient biasing means for biasing the user actuable control means from a flushing to a non-flushing position. Further resilient biasing means are associated with the valve means for biasing the valve means from a closed flushing position to an open position, the resilient biasing means arranged such that as the biasing means of the connction means is placed under increased tension during the flush, the biasing means of the valve means is placed under increased compression.
