D. BURGIN Jan. 10, 1956 DEVICE HAVING A CLEANSING AND/OR DISINFECTING ACTION Filed July 28, 1952 United States Patent DEVICE HAVING A CLEANSING AND/OR DISINFECTING ACTION Dora Biirgin, Basel, Switzerland Application July 28, 1952, Serial No. 301,406
3 Claims. (Cl. 4-231) The present invention relates to a household device having a supply of a soluble substance, which according to its intended use has a cleansing and/or disinfectant action.
This household device according to the invention, is characterized in that the said soluble substance is in the form of a pressed body preferably of cylindrical shape, provided with a central bore, which is placed on a carrier provided with a protruding plug-like member on which it is secured.
Two embodiments by way of example are shown in the accompanying drawing, which shows a vertical section in each of Figs. 1 and 2.
The device according to Fig. 1 has a carrier or container consisting of rubber, which comprises a suction cup 1 and a cylindrical extension a attached thereto. On to this extension a which forms a protruding pluglike portion there is pushed a cylindrical pressed body I; with a central bore b which is contained in a housing 0, which for example may consist of thermoplastic material. This housing has a perforated removable closure member, and a cylindrical, perforated wall. This closure member and the wall section opposite to it each have a central aperture, through which the plug 0 extends. The plug has its outer end a peripheral groove, into which the edge of the central aperture of the closure member will snap when pushing the housing on to carrier, whereby the housing is fixed on the plug :1 The device made in this way is particularly suitable for disinfecting closet bowls flushed with water. In this case it can be attached by means of the suction cup underneath the opening for the water to the wall of the bowl. The pressed body in this case consists of a water-soluble mixture, which contains a filler material such as for example calcined soda, and a disinfecting substance, such as for example sublimate. If necessary other substances with disinfecting or cleansing action e. g. hexamethylenetetramine can be added to the mixture.
This apparatus can however also be used for the disinfecting of rooms and may in this case be fixed to the wall.
In this case the pressed body consists of a mixture, which as filler material contains. for example kaolin, and is mixed with a volatile substance, such as for example chlorocamphor.
The apparatus according to Fig. 2 has a carrier, which has a handle d and plug attachment d attached thereto, on which again a cylindrical housing e is placed and secured with a pressed body provided therein. The pressed body 1 consists in this case of a washing agent. To use the device it is taken by the handle and the housing e is dipped into the water which is to be provided with the washing agent, so that the pressed body becomes completely wet. A few movements of the immersed device in the water dissolves a sufiicient amount of the substance of the pressed body in the water and the device is then withdrawn again.
What I claim is:
1. A device for household cleaning or disinfecting comprising a substantially cylindrical housing having perforations in the cylindrical wall thereof and being closed at one end and open at the other end, said closed end having an aperture therein, a removable closure member adapted to fit over the open end of said housing and having an aperture therein aligned with aperture in said closed end, a pressed block of a soluble substance having desired cleaning or disinfecting properties fitted within said housing and having a bore therethrough, and means adapted to hold said removable closure member over the open end of said housing and to support said block in said housing comprising a plug-like member extending through said aligned apertures and said bore having an enlarged extension on one end thereof exteriorly of one of said apertures and having a peripheral groove on the opposite end thereof adapted to make snap engagement with the edges of the other of said apertures.
2. A device as claimed in claim 1 in which extension is a handle.
3. A device as claimed in claim 1 in which the enlarged extension terminates in a suction cup.
