Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for washing a WC toilet brush.
  • the invention concerns a device for permitting washing bristles of WC brush usually employed for washing a WC, when the same brush has been inserted again within its container.
  • a WC brush is housed within a container or WC brush-holder, which is open at the above, so that at least the head of said brush is housed within said container, and a part of the handle is outside said container to permit to the user to extract said WC brush from said container.
  • the head of the WC brush is provided with bristles, useful to clean up the WC.
  • WC brush holder In order to wash said bristles after the use of the WC brush, WC brush holder is partially filled in with water so that bristles are partially or fully immersed within water that is present within said WC brush-holder.
  • a flange or lid is provided on handle of the C brush, suitable to close the upper opening of the WC brush-holder, in order to prevent water splashes exit from said brush holder.
  • bristles of a WC brush are washed by water present within the WC brush holder.
  • a second drawback is that amount of water within WC brush holder is always more dirty, due to the repeated uses of WC brush that is, after each use, is put again within its container. Consequently, said amount of water is no more able to ensure a proper washing of WC brush bristles.
  • a further disadvantage is due to the fact that, although WC brush bristles are immersed within container water, it is in any case periodically necessary manually cleaning them, with the consequent disadvantages and time consuming.
  • Still another advantage is that it is not always provided possibility of sanitizing and/or disinfecting WC brush bristles. If the user wishes sanitizing and/or disinfecting said bristles, he/she must manually introduce a suitable sanitizing and/or disinfecting liquid within WC brush holder.
  • Said washing device is comprised of a cylindrical container for housing WC brush, and comprising a plurality of shafts, to which fibre wires are fixed for cleaning said brush, a plurality of electric motors, each one making a relevant shaft rotating while washing said WC brush, as well as a pumping system for pumping dirty water outside said container.
  • a first drawback of the above solution is the needing of connecting said washing device to the power supply to operate said shafts, thus being it necessary providing suitable electric insulation.
  • a second drawback of said washing device is due to its complexity, since it is necessary realising a plurality of electric motors, in a number corresponding to the shafts provided within the cylindrical container, and at least a pump for extracting dirty water.
  • a further device for washing a WC brush is described in French patent FR 2 854 041 .
  • Said washing device is comprised of a container, within which it is provided at least an element projecting inward said container, preferably a plurality of ribs, so that bristles of WC brush are cleaned by rubbing against said projecting element.
  • WC brush is suitable to rotate about its longitudinal axis and it is rotated by an electric motor fixed to the brush handle by suitable coupling means.
  • electric motor rotates WC brush about its own longitudinal axis, so that bristles of said WC brush rub, while rotating, against said ribs.
  • a drawback of said washing device is due to its realisation complexity, since it is necessary providing at least an electric motor and mechanical means to ensure coupling of said electric motor with WC brush handle.
  • a second drawback is due to the high costs of realisation of said washing device.
  • a drawback which is common to both the above washing devices is due to skilled maintenance necessary in case of failure.
  • Object of the present invention is that of overcoming said drawbacks, providing a device for washing a WC brush, without power supply means, which is simple, reliable, safe, cheap, and which does not require a skilled maintenance in case of failure.
  • a device for washing a WC toilet brush comprising a container or WC toilet brush holder provided with an opening for the partial housing of said WC toilet brush, said WC toilet brush being comprised of a head provided with a group of bristles, a handle or grip for said head, and a flange or lid to close said opening, and comprising means to emit a water jet onto said head, cleaning means rotating about said bristles, wherein said WC brush holder further comprises:
  • said activation unit when employed, is suitable to permit inlet of a water flow within said device, said water flow having a pressure sufficient to activate said motion hydraulic means so that cleaning means are rotated about bristles of said WC brush by said motion means, said water flow being thus directed on head of WC brush by said means for emitting a water jet.
  • WC toilet brush holder has a cavity/gap between its inner wall and its outer wall to allow passage of water up to said jet water emitting means, said jet water emitting means possibly comprising one or more nozzles.
  • washing device is integrated into a suitable container to be fixed to the ground or to a wall, or placed on the ground, or, as an alternative, removably fixed within a suitable container to be fixed on the ground or on the wall, or to be placed on the ground.
  • Said washing device comprises a container or WC brush holder 23, open above, for at least partially housing said WC brush 5, said WC brush 5 being comprised of a head 25, having a bristle 12 bundle, a handle or grip 1 , and a flange or lid 2, to close said opening, and further comprise means suitable to emit a water jet on said head 25 of the WC brush 5, cleaning means for said WC brush 5 bristles 12, suitable to rotate about said bristles 12, and a unit for activating said cleaning means for a time period corresponding to the period when said flange contacts said activation unit.
  • said activation unit acts on said cleaning means by motion hydraulic means.
  • Turbine 10 rotates said cleaning means when a water flow has a pressure sufficient to activate the same turbine.
  • Container 23 provides a gap 4, between its outer and inner walls, to permit passage of water that, rising through said gap, exits from nozzles 3.
  • Activation unit for said cleaning means comprises a solenoid valve 15, provided on a water inlet duct 9, to permit to a water flow from hydraulic main to be directed toward turbine 10, and electrical control means 18 for opening/closing said solenoid valve 15.
  • activation unit comprises a mechanical valve, on said water inlet duct 9, and mechanical means, such as a lever, for opening and closing said mechanical valve.
  • said device for washing WC brush is integrated into a container 13, fixed to a wall 19.
  • Said container 13 can be placed or fixed on the ground.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne un dispositif de lavage d'une brosse WC (5), comprenant un contenant ou support (23) de brosse WC doté d'une ouverture pour accueillir partiellement ladite brosse WC (5). Ladite brosse WC (5) comprend une tête (25) dotée d'un ensemble de soies (12), un manche ou poignée (1) pour ladite tête (25), et un rebord ou un couvercle (2) pour fermer ladite ouverture. La brosse comprend en outre des moyens (23) conçus pour appliquer un jet d'eau sur ladite tête (25), ainsi que des moyens de nettoyage (26) tournant autour desdites soies (12). Ledit support de brosse WC (23) comprend en outre des moyens de déplacement hydraulique (10) pour actionner lesdits moyens de nettoyage (26) et une unité d'activation desdits moyens de déplacement, pour activer lesdits moyens de déplacement pendant un laps de temps correspondant au laps de temps durant lequel ledit rebord (2) est en contact avec ladite unité d'activation. Ledit support comprend enfin des moyens (8) d'évacuation de l'eau sale. Lors de l'utilisation, ladite unité d'activation est conçue pour permettre l'admission d'un flux d'eau à l'intérieur dudit dispositif, ledit flux d'eau ayant une pression suffisante pour activer lesdits moyens de déplacement hydraulique de sorte que les moyens de nettoyage (26) soient entraînés en rotation autour des soies (12) de ladite brosse WC (5) par lesdits moyens de déplacement. Ainsi, le flux d'eau est dirigé vers la tête (25) de la brosse WC (5) par lesdits moyens (3) d'application d'un jet d'eau.
