Description
, Jan. 24, 1950 P. JEAN- WATER cLos MARIE T. ALLA 2,495,498 WIT H AUXILIARY C BER ET FOR A CLEANING BRUSH Filed April 9, 1946 Patented Jan. 24, 1950 WATER CLOSET WITH AUXILIARY CHAM- BER FOR A CLEANING BRUSH Pierre J can-Marie Thodore Allard, Chantilly, France Application April 9, 194s, serial No. 660,789
In France February 1, 1946 2 Claims.
The broom, mop, or similar device used for cleaning the bowl of a water clost is generally placed in a receptacle independent of the closet and located nearby.
According to one feature of the invention, the bowl of the water closet is provided with a chamber adapted to receive said broom. Said chamber is preferably in communication with the inlet pipe for the flush water and with the bowl by one or more openings, whereby the broom is automatically cleansed by the flush water whenever the flush apparatus is operated, The broom is preferably so constructed that it will act as a cover for the broom compartment. Said compartment may be made either integrall with the bowl or constitute a separate unit which may be inserted between the flush piping and the bowl.
In the accompanying drawing given by way of example:
Fig. 1 is a Vertical section of a closet provided with a broom holding compartment integral therewith,
Fig. 2 is a vertical section through said compartment,
Fig. 3 is a similar section showing a slightly modified construction,
Fig. 4 is a similar section of another construction embodying an auxiliary chamber adapted to contain a deodorizing substance,
Fig. 5 is a similar section of an embodiment in which the broom compartment is independent of the closet and removably mounted.
In the embodiment shown in Figs. 1 and 2, the bowl I of the closet is provided externally on its rear face with a compartment 2 integral therewith. Said compartment is in communication by an opening 3 with the inlet conduit 4 for the flush water and by an overflow opening 5 with the inner capacity of the bowl.
The compartment 2 is adapted to receive the broom or mop 8 to be used for cleaning the bowl I. Said broom is provided at the base of its handle 1 with a disc or plate B which will rest upon the upper edge of the compartment 2 and act as a lid.
In the construction shown in Fig. 3, the opening 5a affording a communication between the broom compartment and the bowl opens at the bottom of the compartment so that all the cleansing water will be discharged from said compartment.
In the construction shown in Fig. 4, an auxillary chamber Il containing a disinfecting liquid 9 is provided laterally on the broom compartment and communicates by a siphon I I with the opening 3 provided between the inlet conduit 4 for the flush water and the broom compartment 2. When the ush water flows down into the bowl and through the compartment 2, the disinfecting liquid is thus sucked in through the siphon II and the broom compartment together with the broom are disinfected at the same time as the bowl.
As sh-own in Fig. 5, the broom compartment may constitute an independent unit which may be tted to existing installations. The broom compartment 2 is then provided with a pipe section or coupling I4 integral therewith and is in communication with the same through inlet holes 3 and outlet holes 5. The inlet pipe I3 which extends from the ush tank (not shown) is cut off and connected to the upper end of pipe I4 whose lower end is inserted into the usual opening I5 of the bowl. When the flush apparatus is operated, a certain amount of the flush water under pressure enters the compartment 2 through the holes 3. Said water will thus cleanse the compartment and the broom and run 01T through the openings 5. An auxiliary chamber for a disinfecting liquid may also be provided in said construction on the side of compartment 2, as described above.
In the various embodiments described above, the lid 8 formed on the broom handle can be provided with a fastening device of the screw type or any other type, in order to prevent the lid from being lifted by the pressure of the flush water in the broom compartment. It will be observed that said pressure is controlled by the comparative sections of the inlet and outlet openings 3 and 5. Said pressure can also be adjusted by providing a restricted portion or nozzle I5 (Fig. 1) in the inlet conduit 4 so as to create a temporary overpressure in compartment 2.
The broom can be made of two removable parts so that the bristle part can be easily changed when worn out.
Having now described my invention what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
l. In combination with a bowl for water closet comprising an inlet pipe adapted to discharge flush water into said bowl and an auxiliary chamber communicating with said bowl and said inlet pipe and adapted to be crossed by a part of the ush water, a broom comprising a cleaning brush for said bowl and means for supporting said broom on the upper edge of said chamber in such a position that the brush is located in the REFERENCES CITED The following references are of record inthe file of this patent:
