Detailed Description of the Invention
With reference to Figures 1 to 3, there is shown a toilet facility 10 comprising a ground standing base 11 supporting a toilet or waste collection bowl 12 . The bowl 12 has a waste outlet 13 which is connected to a mascerator 14 also mounted on the stand 1 1. The bowl 12 is provide with a splash guard 15 to contain liquids within the bowl. The rim of the bowl 12 is surrounded by an externally projecting flange 16 which provides a cleanable are around bowl 12 and a support area as will be described later.
The toilet facility 10 includes three liquid tanks or reservoirs 17,18,19 which are arranged side-by side in a linear array . The tanks comprise a bowl cleaning tank 17 housing a toilet cleaning fluid , a patient cleaning tank 18 holding basically water to which disinfectant or other anti bacterial agent may be added, and a waste collection tank 19. The tanks may be colour coded to reflect their contents. The bowl cleaning tank 17 and patient cleaning tank 18 are connected via conduits 23,24 respectively to a cleaning delivery unit 22 mounted on the support 11. The cleaning delivery unit 22 is connected by internal passageways to inlets 25 for the bowl 12 and inlet 26 for the patient cleaning liquid. There may be a plurality of inlets 25 spaced around the bowl and in the present example, three bowl cleaning inlets 25. The waste tank 19 is connected to the macerator 14 via a larger diameter pipe 21.
The tanks 17-19 may each be provided with a closure 28 for filling or emptying said tanks. The conduits 23 and 24 are connected to their respective tanks 17 & 18 by easily dis-connectable couplings 31 & 32 .Similarly the waste tank 19 is also connected to the pipe 21 by an easily dis-connectable coupling 33. Movement of the tanks when full is facilitated by wheels 34 and a handle 35.
An air dryer/extractor unit 36 is housed on the side of the base 1 1 adjacent the macerator 14. The air dryer may be connected to the delivery unit 22 to deliver drying air to the bowl and/or splash guard 15.
The operation of the toilet facility is controlled by a control unit 37 also housed on the base 11. With reference to Fig. 7, the control unit 37 includes a programmable microprocessor 38 with memory and is operable directly via a keypad 39 or via a remote handset 45. The control unit 37 is connected to various sensors for example liquid level sensors 41,42,43 in the tanks 17,18, 19 respectively, and a water temperature sensor 44 in the patient cleaning liquid tank. The unit 37 is also connected to the air dryer unit 36 and to pumps 47,48, for the pumping of bowl cleaning liquid and patient cleaning liquid to the bowl 12 and a pump 49 for the removal of waste from the maserator 14 to the waste tank 19. The pumps 47 & 48 may be housed in the tanks 17 & 18 respectively and the pump 49 may be housed in the waste tank 19 or immediately downstream of the mascerator . The control unit 37 is also connected to a heater 50 in the tank 18 for maintenance of the patient cleaning fluid at room temperature or body temperature.
The air dryer unit 36 may be a dual purpose air blower and extractor for the supply of air to and removal of air from the bowl 12 and to this end is connected to the control unit 37. If in the alternative, the air dryer 36 is simply to supply drying air to the bowl 12, then a separate air extractor 46 may be connected to the control unit 37. The micro processor 38 of control unit 37 is pre-programmed with a series of operational steps an example of which is illustrated in the flow chart shown in Fig. 8. The operation will be initiated by a "Use" command 51 in-put via the keypad 39 or remote handset 45. After initiation , the control unit operates the air extractor 36/46 in step 52 to remove odours, and simultaneously at step 53 checks the fluid levels in the tanks 17- 19 through the sensors 41-43. The temperature of the patient cleaning liquid in tank 18 is then checked at step 54 via sensor 44 and if the liquid temperature is too cold the control unit 37 via step 55 causes the heater 50 to operated and raise the temperature to the desired level.
Only when these parameters have been satisfied will the next operations be permitted. If the conditions for further use are not satisfied a warning is given on the keypad 39 or handset 45 in a suitable manner e.g. flashing light, audible buzzing etc..
After use of the toilet facility, a second command may be input at step 61 via the keypad or handset. The control unit 37 then initiates the patient wash at step 62 and controls the pump 48 at step 63 to deliver a measured volume of wash, and at step 64 delivers the patient wash liquid to clean the patient. After the patient wash in step 64, the air dryer 36 is activated at step 65 and simultaneously the bowl wash is activated at step 66 and the pump 47 is controlled at step 67 to deliver a measured volume of toilet bowl cleaner which is delivered to the bowl at step 68. The waste material is flushed into the mascerator 14 which is operated at step 69 with the waste then being pumped into the storage tank at step 70. The air extraction system 36/46 may then be switched off at step 71. The operational steps may be varied as is desired. For example a facility for short intermittent flushes for the removal of waste could be programmed into the control unit 37 allowing smaller waste deposits to be removed without the need for a main flush. With reference now to Figs. 4-6, there is shown a hospital bed 100 provided with a toilet facility 10 according to the present invention. The bed 1 10 supports a mattress 111 and both bed and mattress have been modified to accommodate the toilet facility 10 which is located below the bed 110 with the bowl 12 and cleanable flange 16 being substantially in alignment with the support surface of the bed.
