Definitions

  • the invention relates to a system for human waste management designed to conserve water (fig. 1, 2, 3, 4).
  • the invention is specifically designed to deal with the sanitary collection and elimination of urine.
  • the novelty incorporated in the invention includes the method of operation and retro-fit, and the physical device.
  • the system may be retro-installed beneath, and connected to an existing domestic bathroom sink 12, whereby the method is to branch from the sink waste at the exit of the existing trap, to supply water to the physical device which directs the water around itself for cleaning and then back into the original waste pipe from the sink 12.
  • the physical device in this embodiment is stored beneath the sink 12 for space saving and slides into position for use (Fig. 2).
  • the present invention is therefore directed towards providing an improved urinal waste elimination system which incorporates the novel element of utilising recycled water through the inventors design.
  • the invention is specifically designed to deal with the sanitary collection and elimination of urine.
  • the system may be retro-installed beneath, and connected to an existing domestic bathroom sink 12 whereby the method is to branch from the sink waste at the exit of the existing trap for water supply to the physical device which directs the water around itself for cleaning and then back into the original waste pipe from the sink.
  • the physical device is stored beneath the sink for space saving and slides into position for use (Fig. 2).
  • Multiple units may also be installed beside a single sink or other installation but will continue to utilise the waste water pipe from the host installation as water supply.
  • the inlet feed 3 to the unit is taken from the sink waste at the down-stream end of the trap.
  • the water feeds through the device to be distributed around the inner bowl 4 of the unit in order to flush and clean the bowl.
  • the water then passes through the inner bowl 4, through the filter 5 fitted at the base of the bowl and onward through the in-built mini trap 6 before re-entering the waste pipe 7 from the host installation.
  • the waste water then passes on to the sewer without any further additives or chemicals, and without the need for a purpose used flushing mechanism or water closet.
  • the unit may have a small timed water closet installed if one sink feeds more than one device.
  • Units which are not installed directly beneath a sink 12 for space saving (fig. 4) will not be installed on a sliding carriage 1 and rollers 9 but rather be fixed directly to the floor. They will also not require the truncated "U" 8 design of the under-sink unit which allows the unit to sit snugly around existing pipe-work.
  • the unit may also slide laterally, for example in an en-suite where there may not be enough space for it to slide forward into position.
  • system may be installed down-stream of a shower drain or may branch into the shower or sink waste on lower floor of the building. The mechanics and operation of the system remain constant.
  • the plastics incorporated are sanitary grade and moulded.
  • the castors 9 on the sliding unit may be nylon load rollers.
  • the sliding carriage 1 may consist of a soft-close stainless steel, telescopic accuride ball-bearing sliding system.
  • the stationary unit (Fig. 4) can be plumbed with standard waste-pipe 7 while in one embodiment, the sliding unit is connected to supply and waste via highly flexible ducting 11 made from a 2-ply wall of thermoplastic rubber reinforced with axial and helical yarns and supported by a thermoplastic coated steel spring helix.
  • the structural plastics composition of the unit may comprise of five sanitary, mould resistant parts, inner bowl 4, inner water distribution duct 13, outer casing, cover lid 2 and seat. Inlet and outlet connections are sealed according to industry standards.
  • the drain at the bottom of the unit, the in-built mini-trap and plumbing connections are all industry standard.
  • the filter at the drain corresponds in grade to that of a standard sink so that anything that passes from the sink will not lodge in the unit, but continue on to the main sewer system.
  • the sliding mechanism of the device may be foot operated for added ease of use.
  • Fig. 1 shows a plan view of the retro-installed system beneath an existing bathroom sink 12 in the preferred operational position.
  • Fig. 2 shows an end elevation view of unit in Fig. 1.
  • Fig. 3 shows a frontal elevation of same unit in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2.
  • Fig. 4 shows a plan view and a frontal elevation of the system fitted beside a sink 12 rather than beneath it.
  • Fig. 1 there is shown a plan view of the retro-installed embodiment of the system wherein the physical device is shown in the extended position for use.
  • the lid 2 is shown covering the unit with moulded handle 10.
  • the flexible ducting 11 is shown feeding the unit in the first instance and draining the unit in the second instance.
  • the sliding carriage 1 is shown in the extended position.
  • the retro-installed, under-sink unit will be constructed with a truncated "U" shape 8 to allow snug fitting around existing pipe-work or pedestal when in the retracted storage position.
  • the position of the inner bowl 4 is illustrated although this is hidden when the lid 2 is in the closed position.
  • FIG. 2 there is shown an end elevation of Fig. 1 wherein the Physical device is shown in the preferred extended position of use.
  • the inlet feeding 3 from the existing sink waste carries waste water to the flexible ducting 11.
  • the water enters the distribution system 13 within the unit to be distributed around and clean the inner bowl 4 before continuing through the filter 5, the in-built mini-trap 6 and onward into to the existing sink waste pipe 7.
  • the extended position of the sliding carriage 1 and base castors 9 are also shown.
  • Fig. 3 wherein is further shown the locality of the device.
  • the lid 2 in a closed position and the flexible ducting in the retracted position. It is shown that in this embodiment the retro-installed unit may be fitted directly beneath an existing bathroom sink 12. Further illustrations of the inner bowl 4, water distribution channel 13, filter 5 and castors 9 are shown here.
  • Fig. 4 there is shown both a plan view and a front elevation of the device and incorporated method.
  • the device is shown to the right hand side of the sink.
  • the feed and drain pipes are industry standard waste pipe and can be concealed within the wall if desired.
  • the physical unit in this embodiment is stationary unlike the embodiment represented in Figs. 1 and 2.
  • the truncate "U" shape 8 of the sliding unit is not required in this aspect.
  • the operation method remains constant throughout with the unit being fed by and drained into the host installations waste pipe, in this instance being the waste pipe 7 of the bathroom sink 12. Variations
  • the word “comprise” and variations of that word such as “comprises” and “comprising” are not intended to exclude other additives, components, integers or steps.
  • the word “system” is intended to represent the invention as a whole to include the method of operation, the method of retro-fit and the physical device.
  • the words “physical device” are intended to represent the physical components required to construct, fit and operate the system in all its embodiments and are not intended to exclude other additives, components, integers or steps.
  • the word “method” is intended to include the manner of operating the device in all embodiments, the manner for the supply of water to the device in all embodiments and to include but not limit the manner of draining the device in all embodiments
