Abstract

Toilet flushing systems typically use a flush pipe assembly to interconnect a water tank for storing a charge of water with a toilet pan. In concealed systems, errors and miscalculations can be made in determining the relative heights of the toilet flushing systems components. The present invention provides a flush pipe assembly (1) for a toilet flushing system (100), comprising a first pipe section (10) for connection to a water tank (50) of the toilet flushing system, and a second pipe section (20) connected in fluid communication with the first pipe section for conveying water from the tank towards the toilet pan to be flushed. The second pipe section is movable relative to the first pipe section to adjust a position, and especially a height, of the second pipe section.

Claims (15)

1. A flush pipe assembly for a toilet flushing system, comprising: a first pipe section having a first end region for connection to a water tank of the toilet flushing system, the first pipe section for conveying water from the tank towards an associated toilet pan to be flushed; and a second pipe section having a first end region connected in fluid communication with a second end region of the first pipe section for further conveying water from the tank towards the toilet pan to be flushed; wherein a second end region of the second pipe section is configured for connection to a flushing inlet of the toilet pan and wherein the second pipe section is movable relative to the first pipe section to adjust a position, and especially a height, of the second end region of the second pipe section for connection to the toilet pan.
2. A flush pipe assembly according to claim 1, wherein the second pipe section is movable, especially telescopically, relative to the first pipe section in an axial direction of the first pipe section.
3. A flush pipe assembly according to claim 1 or claim 2, wherein the first end region of the second pipe section receives the second end region of the first pipe section in the axial direction of the first pipe section in a sealed and axially slidable connection.
4. A flush pipe assembly according to any one of the preceding claims, wherein the first pipe section is substantially straight and configured to be oriented substantially vertically between the water tank of the toilet flushing system and the second pipe section, and wherein the second pipe section is bent or angled such that the second end region of the second pipe section is configured to extend substantially horizontally for connection to the flushing inlet of the toilet pan.
5. A flush pipe assembly according to any one of the preceding claims, further comprising a mounting bracket for supporting and/or securing the first pipe section and the second pipe section relative to one another, wherein the mounting bracket is configured to limit movement of the second pipe section relative to the first pipe section.
6. A flush pipe assembly according to claim 5, wherein the mounting bracket is configured to be secured or fastened to a wall frame and includes a first recess for receiving and supporting the second end region of the first pipe section and a second recess for receiving and supporting the first end region of the second pipe section.
7. A flush pipe assembly according to claim 6, wherein the second recess permits movement of the second pipe section relative to the first pipe section between the wall frame and an upper limit defined by the bracket to adjust the position, and especially the height, of the second end region of the second pipe section for connection to the toilet pan.
8. A flush pipe assembly according to claim 6 or claim 7, wherein the first recess of the bracket is configured to receive and support the second end region of the first pipe section in a keyed relationship that essentially permits relative displacement in the axial direction only.
9. A flush pipe assembly according to any one of claims 6 to 8, wherein the second recess of the bracket is configured to receive and support the first end region of the second pipe section in a keyed relationship that essentially permits relative displacement in the axial direction only.
10. A toilet flushing system, comprising: a water tank for storing a charge of water for flushing an associated toilet pan; and a flush pipe assembly for interconnecting the water tank and the toilet pan, the flush pipe assembly comprising: a first pipe section having a first end region for connection to the water tank for conveying water from the tank towards the toilet pan to be flushed and a second pipe section having a first end region connected in fluid communication with a second end region of the first pipe section for conveying water towards the toilet pan to be flushed; wherein a second end region of the second pipe section of the flush pipe assembly is configured for connection to a flushing inlet of the toilet pan and wherein the second pipe section is movable relative to the first pipe section to adjust a position, especially a height, of the second end region of the second pipe section for connection to the toilet pan.
11. A toilet flushing system according to claim 10, wherein the second pipe section is movable, especially telescopically, relative to the first pipe section in an axial direction of the first pipe section.
12. A toilet flushing system according to claim 10 or claim 11, wherein the first end region of the second pipe section receives the second end region of the first pipe section in the axial direction of the first pipe section in a sealed and axially slidable connection.
13. A toilet flushing system according to any one of claims 10 to 12, wherein the water tank is configured to be mounted in a wall cavity between members of a wall frame, wherein the first pipe section is configured to be oriented substantially vertically between the water tank and the second pipe section, and wherein the second pipe section is bent or angled such that the second end region of the second pipe section is configured to be extend substantially horizontally for connection to the flushing inlet of the toilet pan.
14. A flush pipe assembly according to claim 13, wherein the flush pipe assembly comprises a mounting bracket for supporting and/or securing the first pipe section and the second pipe section relative to one another to the wall frame in the wall cavity, wherein the mounting bracket is configured to limit movement of the second pipe section relative to the first pipe section.
15. A toilet flushing system, comprising: a water tank for storing a charge of water for flushing an associated toilet pan; and a flush pipe assembly as claimed in any one of claims 1 to 9 interconnecting the water tank and the toilet pan.
