Definitions

  • ABSTRACT A disposable insert bag for use with incinerator-type dry closets, the bag having arranged at the bottom thereof means by which liquid effluent can be collected, distributed and retained therein until such time as said bag is disposed of as by burning.
  • the present invention relates to disposable bags for use with incinerator-type dry closets which comprise a toilet basin, a source of combustion positioned beneath the bottom opening of the toilet basin and an ash box for collecting combusted waste, the disposable bags being arranged inside the toilet basin in snug contact with the interior surfaces thereof and the bottom of the bag at least substantially covering the bottom opening of the basin.
  • One object of the present invention is therefore to provide a means whereby low-viscosity human excrement such as urine can be collected and retained so that it can be brought into intimate contact with the source of combustion.
  • a further object of the present invention is to provide means whereby the presence of obnoxious fumes eminating from the toilet is substantially reduced.
  • an encapsulated layer of saw dust, wood shavings or other finely-divided wood material is placed at the bottom of the disposable bag.
  • the finely-divided wood material serves to reduce the evaporation velocity of the liquid excrement and supplements the ordinary source of heat of the closet and increases the temperature in the combustion chamber.
  • the acids in the wood decompose the urine substances and also, when exhaust gases containing active carbon are produced, bond together certain ill smelling gas molecules eminating from the urine and feces.
  • a layer of saw dust is strewn in the bag, which can be effected by pouring saw dust from a container located outside the closet.
  • the saw dust layer is encapsulated, for example, in a separate, prefabricated package, wrapped in a readily combustible material, such as paper.
  • the layer of saw dust can be fixed in relation to the bag.
  • This latter embodiment can be realized in ac cordance with the invention by retaining the layer of saw dust in position in the bottom of the bag by means of an extra or false bottom, which is attached to the inner walls of the bag by means, for example, of an external flange.
  • cording to the invention in the bottom of which bag is placed a separate package of saw dust within a suitable material.
  • FIG. 4 illustrates in front view a store of disposable bags according to the invention arranged in nesting relationship, which store is suitably positioned, for example, on a wall adjacent the closet.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates diagrammatically and in front view encapsulated an essentially conventional incinerator-type dry closet
  • FIG. 1 also shows the toilet basin 12, which extends down into the casing 10 and beneath which is arranged a source of combustion l3, e.g., an electric resistance in a form of a grid. Situated beneath the source of combustion 13 is a withdrawable ash box 14. Gases are conducted from the combustion chamber of the toilet through a passage or chimney 15.
  • the inside of the toilet basin is covered with a disposable bag 16, in the bottom of which there is placed a layer 17 of saw dust or some other finely-divided wood material, which is intended to absorb and distribute moisture such as urine, to prevent the liquid from running directly through or down onto the combustion source 13 and to supplement the source of combustion when burning and evaporating feces and liquid effluent.
  • a layer 17 of saw dust or some other finely-divided wood material which is intended to absorb and distribute moisture such as urine, to prevent the liquid from running directly through or down onto the combustion source 13 and to supplement the source of combustion when burning and evaporating feces and liquid effluent.
  • FIG. 2 illustrates an embodiment of the bag 16 illustrated in FIG. 1, in a perspective view, partly in vertical section.
  • the reference numeral 18 indicates a substantially conical bag suitably made of paper, and which is provided with a number of folds 19 extending peripherally around the bag and extending from the top thereof to the bottom 20.
  • the folds 19 in addition to enabling the bags to be formed from a strip of material of uniform width also serve to strengthen the bag and to form waste gas passages or ducts therein.
  • a relatively thick layer 21 of saw dust, wood shavings or the like Arranged above the bottom 20 is a relatively thick layer 21 of saw dust, wood shavings or the like, and to maintain this layer uniformly distributed over said bottom and in position in the bag the said layer 21 is covered with an extra bottom 22, for example made of paper or some other readily combustible material, and which is attached as by gluing to the inside of the disposable bag by means of an upwardly directed flange 23.
  • FIG. 3 illustrates in vertical section a slightly modified arrangement of the invention, the Figure showing the bag 16 and its bottom 20.
  • a prefabricated package 24 of saw dust, wood shavings or the like is freely placed on the bottom 20 of the bag, said package being wrapped in a casing 25 of combustible material, suitably paper.
  • FIG. 3 Since it is often desirable to stack a large number of disposable bags in a storage room, the embodiment illustrated in FIG. 3 is often to be preferred, wherewith a number of bags 16 can be nested or stacked in superposed relationship in a cupboard 26 or on suitable shelves. A supply of insert packages 24 are placed in superposed relationship adjacent the stack of bags.
  • the toilet seat and cover are lifted and a disposable bag is removed from the store 26 and placed in the toilet basin in a manner whereby the walls of the bag fit closely against the inner wall of the toilet basin.
  • a package 24 is taken from the supply 26 and placed on the bottom of the bag 16, whereafter the toilet seat is lowered and the closet is ready for use.
  • the urine is evaporated in an advantageous manner, since the finely-divided wood material, both in a natural and carbonized state, is able to decompose and bind ill smelling molecules and prevent obnoxious gases from pervading the surroundings.
  • a disposable bag for incinerator-type dry closets the bag being placed within the toilet basin of the closet with its side walls in contact with said toilet basin and with the bottom thereof at least substantially covering the lower opening of the toilet basin, characterized in that the bag has arranged in the bottom thereof a separate encapsulated bottom layer of finely-divided wood material, the finely-divided wood material being encapsulated in a liquid permeable material.
  • a disposable bag according to claim 1 characterized in that the encapsulated bottom layer covers substantially the whole of the bottom of the bag.
  • a disposable bag according to claim 1 characterized in that the encapsulated bottom layer is free in relation to the bag.
  • a disposable bag according to claim 1 characterized in that the encapsulated bottom layer is fixed in relation to the bag.
  • a disposable bag according to claim 4 characterized in that the encapsulated bottom layer is retained in position at the bottom of the bag by means of an extra bottom, which is attached to the inner walls of the bag by means of a flange.
