Description

The invention relates to sanitary equipment, namely to stationary or mobile toilets of autonomous action, and can find application in places of large crowds, in boarding houses, resorts and sanatoriums.

A public toilet is known, including a toilet cabin with a toilet bowl and a flushing tank containing a water tank (patent RU 2495981 C2, E03D 7/00, publ. 20.10.2013, bull. No. 29).

However, the disadvantage of this public toilet is the lack of visibility and information about its work, which creates inconvenience for users. At a great distance from the toilet, it is not visible whether it works or not, which is very important for the user, especially in an emergency.

The specified public toilet is the closest in technical essence to the proposed invention and adopted as a prototype.

The invention was tasked with creating a more comfortable environment for users, increasing the efficiency of a public toilet, ensuring the information content and visibility of its operation, and providing visual control over the toilet filling.

The technical result is the creation of more comfortable conditions for users, increasing the efficiency of the public toilet, ensuring the visibility and information content of its work, the possibility of visual control over the work and occupancy of the toilet over a long distance.

The technical result is achieved due to the fact that in a public toilet, including a toilet cabin with a toilet and a flush tank containing a water tank, the tank is equipped with a device for opening a pipeline connecting the water supply system with the fountain nozzle (s) of one or more fountains, with an empty flush tank, and the overlap of the pipeline with a flush tank filled with water.

By opening a pipeline, it is understood to mean translating it into a state in which water moves freely through the pipeline, and by shutting it down means transferring the pipeline to a state in which the pipeline is closed and water does not move through it.

A private option of a public toilet is a public toilet, in which a float valve is used as a device for transferring a pipeline from a state open for water passage to a closed one and, conversely, from a state closed for water passage to an open one.

In FIG. 1 conventionally shows a flushing tank; in FIG. 2 - public toilet.

The flushing tank contains a tank 1 for supplying water through a pipe 2 from a water supply system by means of a float valve 3, a float valve 4 with a float 5 for opening a pipe 6 with an empty tank 1 and closing the pipeline 6 with a tank 1 filled with water.

Public toilet works as follows.

After sending the natural necessities, the user flushes the toilet 7. In this case, the water from the tank 1 through the toilet bowl 7 goes into a sewer (not shown). The float valve 5 of the float valve 4 is in the lower position under the action of gravity, as a result of which the water from the water supply system 8 through pipelines 9 and 6 opens to the nozzle of the fountain 10. Under pressure, the water from the water supply system 8 rushes to the nozzle of the fountain 10 and forms a fountain Pillar 11, indicating that the toilet is working and the toilet flushed.

After filling the tank 1 with water, the float valve 4 with the float 5 blocks the access of tap water from the water supply system 8 through pipeline 9 and pipe 6 to the nozzle of the fountain 10. The operation of the fountain 10 stops, which indicates that the toilet is ready to accept the next user. The presence of other toilets with flushing cisterns, which are either connected to the specified fountain (will support its operation) or work in tandem with another fountain, will minimize the stopping of the fountains.

For greater information content, the fountains are arranged in a straight line, and / or in a circle, or in any other sequence.

The height of the fountain column 11 is regulated by changing the pressure in the water supply system 8 or throughput of pipelines 9 and 6. Due to the presence of several fountains, similar to fountain 10 and working to fill the flush tanks of other toilets in an arbitrary order, a colorful picture is created, indicating the occupancy of the public toilet. In addition, the above increases the mood of others.

The need to go to the toilet in order to find out about the availability of free places is lost. This can be found at a distance without going into a public toilet, which will save time and allow you to get into a working toilet. The simultaneous operation of all fountains with a change in the height of the water column will indicate an active use of the public toilet, a long shutdown of the fountains will indicate either the closure of the toilet, or that it is empty, which is unlikely in a place filled with people.

In addition, it is important that the fountains will work only in the daytime in the presence of a large crowding. Lack of people at night will lead to an unoccupied toilet and, consequently, to the termination of access to water to fountain nozzles. At night, in the absence of a large number of people near the toilet, there is no one to admire the work of the fountains, so the need for their work is lost. New in the proposed technical solution is the use to control the operation of fountains performed on the flushing tank of the device, which is used as a float valve.

A method of operating a public toilet, including its use for the delivery of natural needs, is to use a public toilet containing a toilet cubicle with a toilet and a flush cistern containing a water tank for sending natural needs, while the tank is equipped with a device for opening a pipe connecting a water supply system with a fountain nozzle of one or more fountains, with an empty flushing cistern, and shutting off the pipeline with water filled Mr. tank.

The proposed technical solutions are novel, industrially applicable, are not obvious to a specialist.
