Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0001] The present invention relates to an odor eliminating device for a direct-

More particularly, the present invention relates to an improved odor eliminator for a direct-injection type toilet, and more particularly, to an odor eliminator for an odor eliminator of a direct- And a malodor removing device.

Generally, a toilet (referring to a toilet) refers to a western-style washable toilet seat where a person sits on the floor.

Such a toilet is provided with a toilet seat for discharging the toilet seat to the user, a toilet bowl for discharging the excrement to the septic tank together with the supply water, and a water tank provided at the upper end of the toilet bowl for supplying, storing and draining the supply water to the septic tank .

Such a toilet is a structure that temporarily stores and excretes urine discharged from the user's eliminatory organ when the user uses the toilet. Therefore, the user smells a bad odor at the same time as the toilet, and various pathogens (Pathogenic Bacteria) Salmonella, Escherichia coli, Shigella, and Glostridium are easy to breed, and in particular, it is reported that Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Streptococcus and Streptococcus breed at the site of contact with the body.

However, these pathogens may be harmful depending on the health condition of the user, and the diseases that can be caused by these pathogens may be various skin diseases, respiratory diseases, etc., and give a serious discomfort when used.

In this regard, as a technique for eliminating the odor generated during the use of the toilet, there are disclosed the techniques disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open Nos. 2004-0103432, 2010-0049464, 2010-0106892, 0568252, 0393220 Etc. have been disclosed.

However, most of the disclosed technologies are structurally complicated and costly to manufacture because they are deodorized for odor removal, pathogen removal, or as a means for sterilization, sterilization, and antibacterial, using chemicals, ultraviolet rays, or ultrasonic cleaning The effect is not large.

For this reason, most users use a lever to operate the lever with the lid closed, thereby discharging the excrement to prevent the pathogens from spreading throughout the toilet. This is because when the lid is covered, the spread of the pathogen causes the lid It is due to various reports and media reports that it will be reduced by more than two times compared to when it was not covered.

However, due to the inconvenience of covering the lid every time, most users do not cover the lid tightly due to hassle and annoyance, and consciously must cover the lid of the lid, Acting down the lid itself is not easy.

In order to solve this problem, the present applicant has filed a number of patents based on the results of many years of research, including Patent No. 1502302, Patent No. 1382693, and Patent No. 1409515.

On the other hand, all of the above-mentioned toilets are provided with a water tank, and the water stored in the water tank is flowed to treat the excrement. However, since the water is wasteful and the water pressure is low, A direct water type toilet which can directly supply water only when necessary is also common.

1, a water supply pipe 20 for supplying water to the toilet bowl 10 is provided at the rear side of the toilet bowl body 10, and a valve body 30 is connected to the water supply pipe 20, And the water pressure applied to the water pipe acts as it is by depressing the lever 32 provided in the valve body 30 after the water is used to supply water to discharge the excrement .

As described above, this structure has a merit that it is simple, does not occupy a lot of installation space, and has high discharge pressure because of high water pressure.

However, in the case of such a direct type toilet, it is difficult to provide a device for removing odors.

In the case of the water tank type, it is possible to search for a method of removing odor by using a water tank. However, since the water tank does not have a water tank, at least, it is disclosed in Japanese Patent No. 1058923 or Japanese Patent Laid- Only the detachable deodorizing device shown can be implemented.

However, the disclosed detachable type is disadvantageous in that it is very inconvenient at the time of seating and deteriorates in appearance because it is attached to the body of the toilet, and in particular, the urine is stagnated in the case of a male, .

The present invention has been made in view of the problems of the prior art as described above, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a sterilizing apparatus which is structurally simple and easy to install and use, The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a smell removal apparatus for a direct-acting type toilet which is capable of keeping a toilet usage environment pleasant.

Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Before describing the present invention, the following specific structural or functional descriptions are merely illustrative for the purpose of describing an embodiment according to the concept of the present invention, and embodiments according to the concept of the present invention may be embodied in various forms, And should not be construed as limited to the embodiments described herein.

In addition, since the embodiments according to the concept of the present invention can make various changes and have various forms, specific embodiments are illustrated in the drawings and described in detail herein. However, it should be understood that the embodiments according to the concept of the present invention are not intended to limit the present invention to specific modes of operation, but include all modifications, equivalents and alternatives falling within the spirit and scope of the present invention.

As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the odor removing apparatus of a direct-current type toilet according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention includes a toilet bowl body 100.

The toilet bowl 100 has a structure known in the art, and is configured to store a predetermined amount of water therein, and to discharge the excrement left after the user leaves the sewage tank.

At this time, the small water tank 200 is provided in the present invention.

The small water tank 200 is different from existing water tanks in that it is relatively small in size and uses direct water.

Therefore, it is understood that there is little restriction on the installation space, and it is a kind of hybrid type having only the advantages of the water tank type toilet and the merit of the straight type toilet.

However, it is obviously a new invention in that it is improved not only by merely merging the two, but also by using the running water, which will be described later.

That is, a valve body 300 connected to a direct water pipe (water pipe) is connected to one side of the small water tank 200, and a lever 310 is installed on the valve body 300.

Accordingly, when the lever 310 is pushed, the water is supplied to the inside of the small water tank 200 while the water pressure of the water pipe is still applied.

The lower end of the water supply pipe 210 is connected to the toilet bowl main body 100. The water supply pipe 210 is connected to the lower end surface of the small water tank 200 through the water supply pipe 210. [

Here, the upper end of the water supply pipe 210 should be maintained at a predetermined height from the bottom surface of the small water tank 200.

This is a completely different concept from the existing water tank type toilet. In the present invention, the water of constant height is always kept in the bottom of the small water tank 200. In the conventional water tank type toilet, So that the water pressure can be sufficiently obtained, so that the upper end of the water supply pipe must be piped so as to coincide with the bottom of the water tank.

The water supply pipe 210 is provided at its upper end with a breech 220 for opening and closing the water supply pipe 210.

In addition, an air supply hole 240 through which external air can be introduced is formed in the ceiling surface of the small water tank 200 for internal pressure reduction.

Meanwhile, an aspirator 250 is installed in the small water tank 200.

The aspirator 250 collectively refers to a unit capable of sucking in air. The aspirator 250 sucks the odor remaining in the toilet bowl main body 100 through the water supply pipe 210, A part of the internal air in which the odor is melted after being dissolved in the water being stored is discharged through the air supply hole 240 in a purified state.

Therefore, the air supply hole 240 is a very important structure. As the aspirator 250 operates, the internal pressure of the small water tank 200 is changed. The changed internal pressure is transmitted through the air supply hole 240 It can be naturally vented to maintain equilibrium.

A part of the outer circumferential surface of the water supply pipe 210 and the suction port 252 of the aspirator 250 are connected by a connection pipe 254.

In addition, a plurality of outlets 256 are formed at the lower end of the aspirator 250, and the outlets 256 should always be submerged in water.

This is because, as described above, since the upper end of the water supply pipe 210 protrudes from the bottom surface of the small water tank 200 at a certain height, the water is always filled up to a lower height.

The aspirator 250 may include a temperature sensor for detecting the temperature of a person or a proximity sensor for detecting a person's approach or a sensor for detecting an odor (such as a specific odor-emitting component A kind of odor sensor that detects that the operation is performed when the temperature is equal to or more than a predetermined value), and may be configured to receive the detection signal of these sensors and operate for a predetermined time. In addition, it is of course possible to design the circuit so that the water is discharged for a certain period of time after the water discharger 220 is closed.

The present invention having such a configuration has the following operational relationship.

When the user sits on the toilet bowl main body 100 for use and starts to use the toilet, the aspirator 250 is operated.

The malodor is sucked through the water supply opening 112 formed around the inner wall surface of the toilet bowl body 100. The sucked malodor is collected by the water supply pipe 210 and then passes through the connection pipe 254 to the aspirator 250, And then discharged through the discharge port 256 into the water stored in the small water tank 200.

Accordingly, since the odor is discharged into the water in the form of bubbles, the surface area is broad and most of the water is instantaneously dissolved, and the pressure fluctuation inside the small water tank 200 generated in this process is eliminated through the air supply hole 240.

Then, when water is drained by pressing the levers 310, water immediately flowing from the water pipe flows into the small water tank 200 instantaneously, and at the same time, the water level rises up to the upper end of the water pipe 210 The water rapidly discharges through the water pipe 210 and discharges the excrement to the sewage tank.

In this process, if the water level rises excessively, the upper end of the raised breeze 220 hermetically closes the air supply hole 240 while contacting the ceiling surface of the small water tank 200, It can be safely used because it is sealed so as not to be scattered to the outside.

When the water is lowered, the driving of the aspirator 250 is stopped.

As described above, the small water tank 200 is also combined with the direct water formula to realize a hybrid type, so that the odor can be effectively and efficiently sucked and removed, which is expected to be very useful for hygiene and health.

In another preferred embodiment according to the present invention, it can be modified as shown in FIG.

4, the breech 220 may be hinged to be rotatable through a separate bracket extending from the water supply pipe 210, or the hinge shaft may be fixed to both inner walls of the small water tank 200, .

In addition, a vent hole 230 penetrating vertically is formed at the tip (opposite end of the hinge axis) of the boom 220.

The vent hole 230 is closed when the bore 220 receives a large buoyancy force and opened when the buoyancy force is small. For this purpose, a push-type check valve CK1 is installed at the upper end of the vent hole 230 .

Of course, a known check valve CK2 may be further provided at the lower end of the vent hole 230 for stability of operation, but it is also possible to provide only the push-type check valve CK1.

5, the push type check valve CK1 includes a fixed base 400 fitted and fixed to an upper end of the vent hole 230, a flow hole (not shown) formed through the fixed base 400, A sealing plate 430 fixed to a lower end of the flow rod 420 and a sealing plate 430 detachably fixed to the fixing base 400. [ A cap 440 formed on the inner surface of the cap 440 and an air outflow hole 450 formed in a part of the periphery of the cap 440 and elasticity interposed between the inner bottom surface of the cap 440 and the lower surface of the sealing plate 430 And a spring 460.

For the operation of the push type check valve CK1, the air supply hole 240 has a structure in which a contact plate P supported by a plurality of ribs R is formed at the center of a circle as shown in FIG. 4 .

The upper end of the flow rod 420 of the push type check valve CK1 is pressed to contact with the contact plate P so that the air is supplied through the air supply hole 240 to the flow hole 410, And then flows into the vent hole 230 through the air outflow hole 450.

Therefore, when the bowl 220 rises and comes into contact with the ceiling surface of the small water tank 200, more precisely the contact plate P, the air hole 230 is opened while being pressed, Air is supplied to the lower portion of the lower portion of the lower portion of the lower portion of the upper portion of the lower portion of the lower portion of the lower portion of the lower portion of the lower portion of the lower portion. In other words, it delays the closing of the breech 220.

When the lever 310 of the valve body 300 is closed too soon or when the hydraulic pressure fluctuates, when the water pressure is lowered after the boom 220 rises higher than the water pressure when the water is first supplied, the boom 220 is instantaneously lowered and closed In this case, the water supply may be interrupted before the excreta is completely discharged, and the phenomenon that the water can not be discharged sufficiently may occur. In this case, for example, when buoyancy is small, The case in which the shoe bore 220 is strongly raised is referred to as when the buoyancy is greatly increased, for example.

If the check valve CK2 is further provided, the check valve CK2 is opened only in the downward direction and is always closed in the reverse direction, so that the vent hole 230 is in contact with the ceiling face of the small water tank 200 Type check valve CK1 is opened and external air is introduced. When the contact state is released, the vent hole 230 is closed by the spring elasticity of the push-type check valve CK1 At this time, reverse flow of the air supplied into the small water tank 200 is prevented.

Although the push-type check valve CK1 and the check valve CK2 do not have to be provided in the vent hole 230 as described above, it is possible to provide the check valve CK1 and the check valve CK2, It is preferable to provide them in order to completely prevent the possibility that the water inside the small water tank 200 can be ejected out of the water tank through the vent hole 230 and the air supply hole 240.

Such a structure is illustrative and may be modified within the technical scope of the present invention.

6, instead of the check valve CK1 described above, the first water pressure valve 500 is connected to the small water tank 200 using the breech 220 without the vent hole 230, And the first water pressure valve 500 may be directly opened or closed by providing the air supply hole 240 under the air supply hole 240.

The first water pressure valve 500 includes a cylindrical fixed housing 510 fixed to a ceiling surface of the small water tank 200 and a fixed housing 510 extending integrally from a lower end surface of the fixed housing 510. [ An opening and closing rod 530 installed to penetrate through the bottom plate 512 and an opening and closing rod 530 fixed to an upper end of the opening and closing rod 530, Closing plate 540 for opening and closing the air supply hole 240 and a pressure plate 550 fixed to the lower end of the opening and closing rod 530 and disposed inside the water storage housing 520, A hydraulic induction hose 560 extending through the bottom surface of the valve body 300 so as to communicate with the valve body 300 and exposed through the valve tube of the valve body 300 (see FIG. 3) and being opened and closed by the hydraulic pressure plate 550, And an opening / closing spring 570 interposed between the top plate 550 and the bottom plate 512.

Accordingly, when water is supplied from the valve body 300 by pressing the lever 310, a part of the water is moved on the hydraulic induction hose 560, and the water pressure at that time is sufficient to push up the pressure plate 550 The pressure plate 550 is moved upward while compressing the opening / closing spring 570.

Then, the opening and closing rod 530 is raised so that the opening and closing plate 540 is brought into close contact with the ceiling surface of the small water tank 200, and the air supply hole 240 is closed so that water is not leaked when excessive water is supplied.

The method of fixing the fixed housing 510 to the ceiling surface of the small water tank 200 is not specifically shown. However, as described above, it is also possible to form a protrusion on the tilt surface, screw the protrusion on the protrusion, The present invention is not limited thereto, and the manner in which the water storage housing 520 is fixed to the fixed housing 510 is the same.

The unexplained reference symbol 'AH' is a passage through which the internal pressure of the small water tank 200 is released when the air supply hole 240 is opened as an air flow hole.

Other configurations, such as the aspirator 250 and the like, are as described above.

7, the present invention can also be modified in a manner that directly opens and closes the water supply pipe 210 without using the boom 220 by using the second water pressure valve 600. [

The second water pressure valve 600 includes a tubular body 610 having an upper surface and a lower surface which are fixed to the inside of the small water tank 200 using a separate bracket, A water pressure generating hose 620 extending through the valve body 300 so as to be exposed to the inside of the valve tube of the valve body 300 (see FIG. 3) and a tubular body 610 at a position higher than a point where the water pressure generating hose 620 is connected, A movable spring 640 interposed between the movable plate 630 and the ceiling surface of the tubular member 610 and a movable spring 640 fixed to the lower end surface of the movable plate 630, A rod 650 and a water supply opening and closing plate 660 fixed to the lower end of the movable rod 650 and opening and closing the water supply pipe 210.

Of course, in this case, it is preferable to use the first hydraulic pressure valve 500 described above for opening and closing the air supply hole 240.

Thus, when water is supplied from the valve body 300 by pressing the lever 310, a part of the water is moved on the water pressure generating hose 620, and the water pressure at that time is sufficient to push up the movable plate 630 The movable plate 630 is moved upward while compressing the movable spring 640.

As the movable rod 650 is lifted up, the water supply pipe opening / closing plate 660 is lifted, so that the water supply pipe 210 is opened. At this time, water is supplied through the water supply pipe 210 to discharge the used water to the sewage tank .

On the other hand, when the lever 310 is placed, the water supply is cut off because the water supply is interrupted, so that the water supply pipe 210 is sealed by the water supply pipe opening / closing plate 660 by the elastic return force of the movable spring 640.

In addition, it is effective that the malodor removing operation proceeds in a state in which the water supply pipe 210 is closed.

As described above, the direct smell removal apparatus according to the present invention can be modified into various forms.
