(54) Toilet ventilation apparatus and installations


(57) Toilet ventilation apparatus in the form of a kit of parts including:
(1) a hollow body providing a chamber therein and having at one end an opening to provide an inlet to the chamber, said body being dimensioned to suit it for fitment onto a w.c. pan below the pan's seat; and
(2) at least first and second mounting means for the body and of which selectively all but one may be rendered redundant for said fitment.
The first and second mounting means comprise:
(a) one or more double-sided adherent pads for disposition between the rim of the w.c. pan and the underside of the hollow body, and
(b) a pair of laterally extending lugs integral with, but separable from the hollow body and to be clamped between the pan and the seat by seat mounting bolts.
The mounting means (b) may comprise a pair of hollow bushes of generally T-shaped axial cross-section serving as hollow "bolts" to fasten the lateral lugs of (b) to the w.c. pan and to permit independent attachment of the seat by separate seat mounting bolts extending through the hollow bushes.
