Abstract

La présente invention concerne un mécanisme d'aspiration pour toilettes qui élimine avec simplicité et efficacité les odeurs fortes émanant de la cuvette avant qu'elles ne diffusent alentours. Le système est constitué d'un conduit de gaz dédié intégré dans la cuvette et raccordé à un ventilateur d'aspiration d'air qui extrait les odeurs de la cuvette lorsqu'un usager utilise les toilettes ou s'assoit sur la cuvette. Le ventilateur d'aspiration d'air extrait les odeurs fortes émanant de la cuvette et les envoie à l'extérieur des toilettes. Le mécanisme peut également être intégré sur des toilettes existantes, le siège antérieur étant remplacé par un siège comprenant un conduit de gaz intégré conçu pour aspirer les odeurs provenant de la cuvette. En outre, le mécanisme d'aspiration selon la présente invention peut aussi s'appliquer aux urinoirs pour éliminer les odeurs fortes à proximité desdits urinoirs.
