Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a liquid deodorizing and soiling agent supply container for a flush toilet tank.

In the conventional deodorizing and antifouling agent supply container of the above type, a certain amount of liquid chemical or chemical solution is added and mixed with the cleaning water each time the cleaning water is supplied to the aquarium. In this manner, cleaning water containing a diluted chemical solution is constantly stored in the water tank, and after the tank is drained, a certain amount of the chemical solution is added to and mixed with the cleaning water that is replenished.

However, conventional supply containers have the following drawbacks: (1) When the container is placed in the aquarium, the chemical solution may spill, staining the surrounding area, clothes, and hands.

(2) Since the chemical solution remains diluted in the cleaning water in the aquarium for a long time, the deodorizing and antifouling effects may be diminished by the chlorine contained in the water. This is manifested in fading of colored chemicals, volatilization of fragrances, etc.

(3) The equipment and materials inside the tank may deteriorate due to the action of the chemical solution.
There is a risk of corrosion, etc.

There were problems such as.

The present invention was created based on the discovery of the following points as a result of extensive research and development in consideration of the above points: In flush toilets, the effect of the medicinal solution is proportional to the concentration of the medicinal solution; The maximum effect of the medicinal solution is exerted during the period of residence in the toilet bowl. Therefore, (A) It is not necessary for the chemical solution to be diluted with cleaning water.

(B) If the cleaning water is drained out first, there will be a difference between the amount of chemical solution supplied and the required amount of effective chemical solution.

(C) By supplying a fixed amount of the required amount of effective chemical solution, the cumulative amount and concentration of chemical solution in the septic tank over a given period of time will be reduced.

Thus, the present invention not only automatically discharges a certain amount of chemical solution according to the ebb and flow of the water for cleaning the water tank that is replenished every time the flush toilet is drained, but also realizes the maximum effect of the chemical solution with the minimum amount of chemical solution. This can also solve the problems of conventional supply containers such as (1), (2), and (3) above, and for this purpose, the undiluted solution from the chemical solution supply container is flushed with washing water that has flowed into the stopper cover in advance. The feature is that the discharge of the diluted chemical solution is synchronized with the discharge of the cleaning water in the water tank. In other words, the chemical solution is discharged from the supply container at the same time as the cleaning water is discharged, and when the cleaning water is not being discharged, a certain amount of the chemical solution is retained in the plug cover attached to the mouth of the supply container and the cleaning water is discharged. The system is designed to cause the stored medicinal solution to flow into and discharge into the toilet bowl following re-drainage, and for this purpose, it consists of a container body, an inner stopper to be attached to the mouth of the container body, and an inner stopper to be attached to the mouth of the container body. A float attached to the stopper, a stopper cover part attached to the mouth part and surrounding the float, and an upper part located above the stopper cover part and opened opposite to the side of the float. an opening, and a lower opening located at the lower part of the plug cover and opened below the float;
When the water tank is full, a concentrated diluted solution of the chemical solution in the container and the cleaning water supplied to the tank is generated in the stopper cover, and the concentrated diluted liquid is stored in the stopper cover and the washing water is The present invention is characterized by an odor- and stain-proofing agent supply container for a water tank in a flush toilet, which is constructed so as to be drained when draining water.

According to the above configuration, in synchronization with the drainage of the cleaning water supplied to the water tank, a concentrated diluted solution of the chemical solution is generated in the plug cover attached to the container mouth, and this concentrated dilution is produced until the next cleaning water is discharged. The liquid is stored in the stopper cover. That is, in the supply container according to the present invention, when draining the washing water from the water tank, the liquid level of the concentrated diluted liquid in the stopper cover is located below the upper opening of the stopper cover and above the lower opening. It operates to drain the concentrated diluted liquid, and when the water tank is full, it operates so that the liquid level of the concentrated diluted liquid is above the upper opening of the stopper cover, and stores the concentrated diluted liquid in the stopper cover. Thus, a deodorizing and antifouling agent supply container is realized which is prepared for the outflow of the concentrated diluted liquid when the washing water is drained.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings showing embodiments of the invention.

In the figure, 1 is the container body of the deodorizing and antifouling agent supply container containing the chemical solution S such as deodorizing, antifouling, and aromatic liquid;
2 is the opening of the container body 1, 3 is the stopper cover, 4 is a float that can float up and down during use, 5 is an inner stopper that is fitted into the opening 2, 6 is a valve body protruding from the float 4, 7 is the cylindrical body that protrudes from the float 4 toward the valve body 6, 10 is the valve seat for the valve body 6, L is the water level when the water tank (cistern) is filled with cleaning water, and L' is the drain of the cleaning water from the water tank. l is the critical point in the stopper cover 3 between the chemical solution S and the cleaning water, that is, the lower limit of the liquid level retained in the stopper cover 3 during draining, and S′ is the water level inside the stopper cover 3. A concentrated diluted solution of the retained chemical solution S and cleaning water is shown.

In the supply container of the present invention, the stopper 3 attached to the container mouth 2 has one or more upper openings 8 located approximately on the sides of the float 4 and another lower opening 9 near the bottom. It is provided. An opening at the valve seat 10 is provided in the center of the inner stopper 5, into which the valve body 6 is loosely fitted. A suitable hanging device is attached to the container main body 1 to fix the entire container in the water tank.

According to the above configuration, on the way to the water tank being filled with water as shown in FIG. The float 4 floats up while holding air at point a. As a result, the chemical solution S flows down from the valve portion to the bottom of the stopper cover portion 3. When the water level reaches the full water level L, the float 4 floats up and the upper surface of the float 4, the cylinder body 7, etc. come into contact with or come into contact with the surface of the inner stopper 5, and at this time, the flow of the chemical solution S is stopped. At this time, the chemical liquid with a relatively large specific gravity displaces the cleaning water that had previously flowed into the stopper cover 3 and descends, rising above the liquid level l which is the critical point (of course, it is disturbed by the inflowing water flow f and flows into the stopper cover 3). A part of the chemical solution becomes a diluted solution within the container 3), and is stored in such a way that the liquid interface is located at the liquid surface. A small portion of the chemical liquid flows out from the lower opening 9 and is diffused into the water tank, but the main portion is temporarily retained within the stopper cover 3. Even in this case, the cleaning water can be pre-treated, which is preferable.

Next, when the flushing water in the water tank is drained when using the flush toilet, as shown in Fig. 2, the chemical solution S' in the stopper cover 3 flows out from the lower opening 9 as the dry water level L' falls. Before that, the diluted solution also flows out from the upper opening 8 and is mixed into the washing water, and as the water flows in the toilet tank, it deodorizes, sterilizes, perfumes, and deodorizes the toilet tank. In the case of dry water in an aquarium, the float 4 is displaced from the floating state shown in Fig. 1 to the descending state shown in Fig. 2, but at this time,
The chemical solution S' in the stopper cover 3 remains at level 1. This level l is the chemical liquid in the stopper cover part 3.
It forms the critical point between S′ and the cleaning water. That is, at the same time as the aquarium is drained, the chemical solution and diluted solution S' that had filled up to the top of the stopper cover 3 flow out from the openings 8 and 9 as described above, and at the same time as this flow out, the drug solution and the diluted solution S' fill up to the top of the stopper cover 3. A fixed amount of the chemical solution S inside the tank flows down to the valve part above the float 4, is replenished, and is temporarily stored. In other words, the chemical solution S or mixed solution S' having a large specific gravity is pushed out of the stopper cover 3 and flows out through the openings 8 and 9 in accordance with the ebb and flow of the water tank. The interface of this chemical solution S' is constantly maintained within the stopper cover 3 with level l as the lower limit. Therefore, the critical point l is the process in which the interface of the chemical solution moves up and down in accordance with the ebb and flow of the aquarium, that is, even if the chemical solution S' is discharged from the stopper cover part 3 in fixed amounts with each drainage, and flows into or mixes with the cleaning water. remains almost unchanged. The movement of the liquid interface within the stopper cover 3 can be easily and directly observed using a colored chemical solution, for example, blue.
