    Description

    Subject of the Invention



    [0001] The subject of the invention is related to a sanitary ware product comprising a bowl and a system for allowing hygienic additive flow into the bowl. Also a method of using such sanitary ware product is claimed.

    Prior Art



    [0002] People come across with serious hygiene problems due to common usage of toilets in our houses, offices, restaurants, cafes, hospitals and malls in which we spent a lot of time.

    [0003] In the prior art, there are various methods for solving the hygiene problems. In prior art embodiments, systems comprising various additives are mounted into the water closets/toilet bowls or reservoirs to provide hygiene in sanitaryware products. During mounting of these materials into the water closet bowls sometimes unhygienic conditions may occur and in the systems which are mounted inside the reservoir, the adjustments of the water filling and emptying equipments may be damaged and the assembly of them is hard and additionally, the diversity of the materials used with the prior art systems is very limited.

    [0004] Some of the systems developed in the present state of art are used by being mounted to the ring holes at the inner parts of the closets. The system disclosed in DE10015361C1 has a container for the fluid with an outlet opening fitted to the edge of the bowl. The system mentioned in this document adds a fluid agent to the water, when flushing a toilet bowl. The outflow opening of the container is linked to a rising tube, with its outlet end opening into the flushing flow channel. When the toilet is flushed, the water flow through the channel draws a portion of the fluid out of the container by suction.

    [0005] In DE 10246866 (A1), tablet is placed into the chamber which is present in the structure of the reservoir. In this system the additive is not wholly covered by water level when the cistern is refilled. When the water is completely filled, the water which enters and exits through the holes present on each surface of the reservoir mixes an insufficient amount of material into the water in the reservoir and the water containing chemicals is poured into the closet container by the flush.

    [0006] In GB1347569A, a measured liquid distribution is provided with respect to the water levels changing in the reservoir. In this document a device for dosing a flushing cistern, with cleanser or disinfectant comprises a container for the liquid additive and an air-bell which rises and falls with the water level is mentioned. In its lowest position additive fills the metering chamber and is discharged through outlets as the bell rises. The additional liquid is filled up to the neck of the reservoir creating an air lock.

    [0007] In GB1471040, the container which holds the hygienic liquid have a lid to fill the liquid and it is placed into the reservoir. A small diameter opening is positioned at the top and cleaning compound is exposed to water within the cistern through this opening. A pressure sensitive paper is located over the opening. Inert materials are also included with the compound. The inert materials may comprise stone, marbles, or any other solid which will not affect the reaction of the compound. The purpose of the inert material is to limit the amount of compound which is exposed to water. The mixture of compound and inert material is loaded in the container until the container is one-third to two-thirds full, preferably about one-half full. Accordingly, this compound will be carried into the bowl when the toilet is flushed to thereby achieve a cleaning action. After flushing, the hygiene providing liquid exits from the narrow exit of the reservoir in controlled amounts.

    [0008] In US 4171546, a passive dosing dispenser for issuing a predetermined volume of a toilet tank additive solution into a toilet tank as the water is draining therefrom while the toilet is flushing. In the mentioned system hygiene providing material is mixed with water by letting the region in which the hygiene providing material is present filled with water through the holes when the water level in the reservoir increases is disclosed. Together with the lowering of the water level, namely with the flushing, the water into which the hygiene providing material is mixed is discharged from the reservoir into the closet. In the present document, different solutions are found for this system. The contact of the hygiene providing liquid occurs in a small region and in each flush, a little amount of water with hygienic additive is mixed into the reservoir water.

    [0009] On the other hand, in US 4312082, a system to dispense a predetermined amount of a liquid formulation into the toilet bowl in response to cycling of the water level in the tank during a flushing operation of the toilet is mentioned. The system comprises a reservoir for storage the liquid formulation and a dispensing pump which is driven through its working stroke by a float vertically movable in response to the cycling water level in the tank. As the water level rises, the lower moving part moves upward by advancing in the piston bearing, moves the balls with the pressure and provides the advancing of hygiene providing liquid within the pipes. The liquid mixes to the water from the upper exit.

    [0010] In US 4319369A, water saving is intended during disinfection. Since the inlet mouth of the dispenser connected to the clean water exit is above a determined water level, it saves water by keeping it at a level equal to its own length. The disinfecting liquid container connects to the main passage from the side and the water gains acceleration due to the angled physical structure of the main passage. This acceleration provides a suction power for the disinfectant liquid to pass into the water. The passage of water through the product and flowing of it into the water closet are provided by the pulling of the cover which is standing with an angle and connected to the flusher button with chain up together with the button.

    [0011] In US 4432102, a system whih permits a predetermined amount of additive solution to be discharged into the toilet tank and/or bowl from an outlet port of the device during each flush cycle. Mentioned system comprises two cavites in one of which the tablet is placed and the second cavity communicating with the tablet cavity and holding a solution of the dissolved additive material. When the toilet is flushed a predetermined amount of water flows into the solution cavity and this predetermined amount of water causes a corresponding amount of additive solution to be discharged from the cavity and substantially into the tank. By positioning the device in the tank, the optimum amount of the additive solution may be transferred into the tank and/or bowl during the flush, and remain therein during the quiescent period before the next flush.

    [0012] In US 4451941 a dosage adjusted dispenser which is composed of two parts and attached to the side wall of the reservoir is disclosed. The product is comprises two walls the first of which is from an elastic material and the second is from a hard material. The flexible first wall located so that hydrostatic pressure from the body of water presses the first wall against the second wall to close the first flow path against the water flow therealong when the level of the body of water is above the first wall, and permits the predetermined volume of water to flow between the first and second walls into the product chamber when the level of the body of water is below the first wall, water in the product chamber dissolving a portion of the material therein to form a material containing solution. The system also includes structure for dispensing substantially the same predetermined volume of the solution from the product chamber into the body of water when the body of water falls from the upper level to the lower level.

    [0013] In US 4459710, a dispenser system which has two dispensing sections has been mentioned. The first dispensing section comprises a first product chamber for containing, a cleaning solution comprising surfactant, fragrance and dye, and the second dispensing section comprises second and third product chambers for containing, preferably, a disinfectant solution. During operation a predetermined volume of solution is dispensed from each section. In the mentioned passive dispensing device two solutions from two separate sections are dispensed simultaneously into the toilet bowl. Both sections are designed such that concentrations of the surfactant and disinfectant in the body of liquid arising from the migration or diffusion of respective solutes into the tank water during quiescent periods.

    [0014] Other known toilet bowls and water flushing systems are described for example in documents DE-U-20314954 and WO-A-2006/136215 wherein the DE -954 document discloses the preamble of present independent claim 1.

    Description of the Invention



    [0021] The subject of the invention is related to a sanitary ware product in accordance with independent claim 1.

    [0022] Three holes (8,9) are positioned on the sanitary ware product surface for mounting and use of the system in sizes in accordance with the mounting and use of the system again, as seen in Fig. 2. One of these holes (9) is used both for mounting, and in order for the hygienic liquid to get into the toilet bowl. The other two are the holes (8) made only for mounting the system. The hole (9) made in order for the hygienic liquid to pass to the toilet bowl is positioned on the clean water inlet channel (14) such that it will allow flowing of the hygienic additive to the toilet by mixing with the water coming from the reservoir (Fig. 16).

    [0023] The system according to the invention comprises; at least one housing mounted in the mounting holes positioned on the upper surface of the sanitary ware product and comprising a hygienic liquid, at least one unit that enables the hygienic material filled into the housing to flow into the toilet bowl, auxiliary components for the operation of said unit, a component directing the clean water to the system to initiate the operation of the system and cover parts; wherein said system functions thanks to the fact that the hygienic liquid flows from the housing to the inner portion of the toilet bowl.

    [0024] The system according to the invention comprises; at least one housing (1) where the hygienic liquid is put; a unit (2) which ensures flowing of the hygienic liquid material into the toilet and comprising at least one outer body (2.1), at least one inner body (2.3) which is located inside said outer body (2.1), at least one sealing element (2.2) located between the outer body (2.1) and the inner body (2.3), and a ball (2.4) which is located in the inner body and moves up and down; a component (3) which is mounted in the lower portion of the housing (1) and ensures that the water coming from the clean water channel is directed to the inner body (2.3) positioned in the unit (2); at least one upper cover (4) which is located in a way to cover the housing where the hygienic liquid is put; at least one hole (10) located on the upper cover and allowing the hygienic additive to be filled into the housing (1); at least one cover part (5) covering the outer portion of the housing (1); a screw unit (6) that allows the housing (1) to be mounted onto the sanitary ware product surface; and screws (7) allowing the mounting of the upper cover (4) of the housing (1) where the hygienic liquid material is put. Sealing members (2.2) that are located between the outer body (2.1) and the inner body (2.3) in the unit (2) are preferably washers.

    [0025] In the system according to the invention, an extension (11) which is positioned on the housing (1) and extends towards the lower portion of the same is configured. The inner portion of the extension (11) of the housing located on the lower portion of the housing forms a bearing (11a) where the unit (2) enabling the hygienic liquid material to flow into the toilet bowl is located. The unit (2) enabling the hygienic liquid material to flow into the toilet bowl is fixed in the bearing (11a) on the housing by means of the outer body (2.1) thereof. The outer portion of the outer body (2.1) positioned in the unit (2) enabling the hygienic liquid material to flow into the toilet bowl has a threaded structure (Figs. 7, 13). The inner portion of the bearing (11a) has also a threaded structure in a way to correspond to the outer portion of the outer body (2.1). Thus, the unit (2) enabling the hygienic liquid material to flow into the toilet bowl is secured in this area upon locking of the threaded structure on the outer portion of the outer body (2.1) in full compliance with the corresponding threaded structure in the inner portion of the bearing (11a) of the unit enabling the hygienic liquid material to flow into the toilet bowl on the housing. The component (3), directing the water coming from the clean water channel (14) to the inner body (2.3) positioned in the unit (2), is mounted on the outer portion of the extension (11) which is located on the receptacle/housing (1) where the hygienic liquid is put and which is formed as an extension of the housing. The component (3) enabling the water coming from the clean water channel (14) to be directed into the inner body (2.3) is mounted onto the extension (11) located in the lower portion of the housing (1) such that the former will be attached to the latter in a way to enclose it from the outside, as seen in Fig. 11.

    [0026] In the system according to the invention, the component (3) directing the water coming from the clean water channel (14) to the inner body positioned in the unit in the system is mounted onto the hole (9) on the sanitary ware product, wherein the hygienic liquid material entering into the sanitary ware product through said hole.

    [0027] The hygienic material is put into the toilet tank or product housing during the use of the existing systems within the present state of the art; on the other hand, the system according to the invention, in practice, is used by making changes on the product and placing the system according to the invention which provides hygienic additive onto the sanitary ware product surface in the rear portion of the toilet cover (Fig. 1).

    [0028] In the system according to the invention which provides hygienic additive and which is mounted through the holes (8, 9) on the sanitary ware product, the receptacle/housing (1) is used for storing the hygienic liquid material. In case of running of the hygienic additive in the receptacle/housing (1) where the hygienic liquid is put, the hygienic additive is refilled into the housing (1) through the hole (10) on the upper cover (4). The receptacle/housing (1) where the hygienic liquid is put is mounted on the sanitary ware product through the holes (8) on the sanitary ware product surface by means of screws (6); moreover, the extension (11) extending towards the lower portion of the housing is engaged in the other hole (9) on the sanitary ware product by means of the component No. 3. Mounting of the housing onto the sanitary ware product surface is thus completed. The cover part (5) is the visual cover part which is used for concealing the system which provides hygienic additive, and this cover may vary in terms of design in the detail of the product. The upper cover (4) of the receptacle/housing (1) where the hygienic liquid is put is mounted on the receptacle/housing (1) by means of screws (7).

    [0029] The hole (9) provided on the sanitary ware product surface for passing of the hygienic liquid to the toilet bowl is made on the clean water inlet channel (14), and thus the hygienic liquid material is made to flow into the toilet bowl upon mixing with the clean water flowing into the toilet thanks to the system according to the invention. Thus, hygiene is ensured in the toilet bowl. The housing (1) where the hygienic liquid is put, seen in Fig. 5, is mounted onto the holes (8) made on the sanitary ware product.

    [0030] The components of the unit (2) which allows flowing of the hygienic liquid material into the toilet in the system according to the invention are shown in detail in Fig. 7. Again, as mentioned before, the unit (2) is made up of at least one outer body (2.1), at least one inner body (2.3) which is located inside said outer body (2.1), at least one sealing element (2.2) located between the outer body (2.1) and the inner body (2.3), and a ball (2.4) which is located in the inner body and is capable of moving up and down. At least one liquid passage hole (2.5a, 2.5b) is located such that one of them is located on the upper portion (top portion) and the other is located on the lower portion (bottom portion) on the inner body (2.3). The inner body (2.3) comprises inner wings (2.6) in the inner portion thereof. The inner body (2.3) has a flexible nature, wherein the inner wings (2.6) thereof provide sealing owing to the pressure caused by the ball (2.4) in both lower and upper positions. In Fig. 14, the downward inclination caused by the inner wings (2.6) of the inner body due to the ball (2.4) pressure is seen. The ball (2.4) in its upward position applies pressure on the inner wings (2.6) in upward position also and the inner wings (2.6) assist in providing sealing. One of the liquid passage holes (2.5a, 2.5b) located on the inner body (2.3) allows hygienic additive passage from the housing (1) where the hygienic liquid is put to the inner body (2.3) while the other hole allows hygienic additive passage from the inner body (2.3) to the toilet bowl. The liquid passage hole (2.5a) located in the top on the inner body (2.3) allows hygienic additive passage from the housing (1) where hygienic liquid is put to the inner body (2.3) while the liquid passage hole (2.5b) located in the bottom allows hygienic additive passage from the inner body (2.3) to the toilet bowl. In the system according to the invention, while the toilet bowl is being washed with clean water, the hygienic liquid which will pass to the toilet bowl in the next time when the toilet bowl is to be washed accumulates inside the inner body (2.3) and is kept in this section until the next washing operation. Subsequent to washing of the toilet bowl with the clean water coming from the reservoir, the inner body (2.3) which is thus discharged is again filled with the hygienic liquid passing from the housing (1) to the inner body (2.3), and the hygienic liquid is kept inside the inner body (2.3) until the next washing operation. Washing of the toilet bowl will be explained in detail below. The sealing elements (2.2) used between the outer body (2.1) and the inner body (2.3) of the unit are preferably washers. The assembled view of the unit (2) enabling the hygienic liquid material to flow into the toilet bowl, said unit consisting of said components, is given in Figs. 13 and 14. The inner portion of the extension (11) of the housing located on the lower portion of the housing forms the bearing (11a) of the unit (2) enabling the hygienic liquid material to flow into the toilet bowl on the housing. The unit (2) enabling the hygienic liquid material to flow into the toilet bowl is located in its bearing (11a) on the housing (1) as described above. Thus, the unit (2) enabling the hygienic liquid material to flow into the toilet bowl is secured in this area upon locking of the threaded structure on the outer portion of the outer body (2.1) of the unit (2) enabling the hygienic liquid material to flow into the toilet bowl, in full compliance with the corresponding threaded structure in the inner portion of the bearing (11a) of the unit enabling the hygienic liquid material to flow into the toilet bowl on the housing.

    [0031] One of the most significant parts of the system is the component (3) which directs the water coming from the clean water channel into the inner body (2.3) of the unit (2). The structure of this component No. 3 is shown in detail in Figs. 9 and 10. The component No. 3 is mounted onto the extension (11) of the housing located in the lower portion on the housing such that the former will be attached to the latter in a way to enclose it. The inner diameter of the component (3) directing the water coming from the clean water channel (14) to the inner body (2.3) positioned in the unit (2) enabling the hygienic liquid material to flow into the toilet bowl is smaller than that of the extension (11) of the housing which is located in the lower portion on the housing; and the component No. 3 is made flexible and engaged in this area. When released after being attached to the extension (11) of the housing located in the lower portion on the housing, the component No. 3 clutches this section, and is thus mounted. The component No. 3 is mounted on the hole (9) through which the hygienic liquid material enters into the sanitary ware product, and during clean water passage from the clean water channel (14) to the toilet bowl, this component allows some water to be directed into the inner body (2.3), thereby making the ball (2.4) herein move. Both the lower and the upper portions of the component (3) directing the water coming from the clean water channel to the inner body (2.3) positioned in the unit (2) enabling the hygienic liquid material to flow into the toilet bowl are open. The component No. 3 is mounted in the extension (11) of the housing which is located in the lower portion on the housing by being passed through the opening (12b) which is located thereon and which allows the mounting of the same onto the housing. The other opening on the component (3) directing the water coming from the clean water channel to the inner body (2.3) disposed in the unit (2) is the mouth/opening (12a) through which clean water enters into the inner body. A bucket (13) which directs the clean water into the inner body is disposed on the component (3) directing the water coming from the clean water channel to the inner body (2.3) disposed in the unit (2) enabling the hygienic liquid material to flow into the toilet bowl. This bucket has a structure that can be defined as a quarter circle. The section of this structure facing the coming direction of the clean water from the clean water channel, i.e. facing the clean water channel, is the opening (13a) section which allows water inlet. The component No. 3 is mounted such that the opening (13a) will take the water coming from the clean water channel (14), i.e. face the clean water channel (14). The water coming from the clean water channel (14) enters through the opening (12a) on the component No. 3 by hitting the bucket (13) by means of this mouth/opening (13a) and rises inside the inner body (2.3) located inside the unit (2) enabling the hygienic liquid material to flow into the toilet bowl. The ball (2.4) located in the inner body (2.3) is located such that it will close the hole (2.5b) disposed in the lower portion of the inner body (2.3), i.e. bottom of the inner body (2.5b), and that it will fit at the bottom/base of the inner body (2.3), in case the system is not active, i.e. when there is no water passage to the toilet bowl from the reservoir and clean water channel (14), as seen in Figs. 8a and 14. In this position of the ball (2.4), there occurs no liquid passage into the toilet bowl from the inner body (2.3). Upon pushing the reservoir push button, while the water flowing freely from the clean water channel (14) flows into the toilet, it enters through the mouth/opening (13a) located on the component No. 3 in clean water coming direction, hits this area by means of the bucket (13) (i.e. bucket-like structure), and then advances into the inner body (2.3) through the opening (12a) on the component No. 3. The ball (2.4) located in the inner body (2.3) moves upwards with the pushing force caused by the water reaching the inner body (2.3). That the ball (2.4) moves upwards with the pushing force caused by the water allows the liquid passage hole (2.5b) located on the lower portion of the inner body (2.3) to be opened. The hygienic additive present in the inner body (2.3) passes through the hole (2.5b) and the component No. 3, directs towards the toilet bowl, and passes through the hole (9) on the toilet surface, mixes with the clean water flowing to the toilet bowl, and then is discharged into the toilet bowl. The position of the ball (2.4) during water flow into the toilet is shown in Fig. 8b. In this position, the ball (2.4) is kept in upper position with buoyancy of the water having entered into the body (2.3) such that it will close the hole (2.5a) disposed in the top of the inner body (2.3), i.e. in an upper position inside the inner body (2.3) (Fig. 8b). In this position of the ball (2.4), no hygienic additive passage occurs from the receptacle/housing (1) where the hygienic liquid is put to the inner body (2.3). Since there is no force to hold the ball (2.4) in the upper position when the clean water coming from the reservoir runs out, the ball (2.4) again freely moves in downward direction and it is positioned in a way to fit in the bottom of the inner body (2.3) and closes the hole (2.5b) in this area so as not to allow liquid passage. While the ball (2.4) moves downwards, the liquid passage hole (2.5a) located in the upper body on the inner body (2.3) is again opened in a way to allow liquid passage; thus, hygienic additive passage from the housing (1) into the inner body (2.3) takes place again. And the inner body (2.3) is refilled with hygienic additive to flow into the toilet bowl in the next washing operation. Downward movement of the ball (2.4) is completed, and when the hole (2.5b) located in the lower portion of the inner body (2.3) is closed by way of the ball (2.4), the ball (2.4) prevents liquid passage through the hole (2.5b), and thus provides sealing, thereby also preventing hygienic additive passage to the toilet. Thus, in the next washing operation, the hygienic additive to flow into the toilet bowl is filled into the inner body (2.3) and kept herein. The inner wings (2.6) located in the lower and upper portions in the inner portion of the inner body assist in providing sealing with the pressure caused by the ball (2.4).

    [0032] Such operation of the system and the ball (2.4) is repeated in each washing operation of the toilet with the clean water coming from the reservoir.

    [0033] With the use of the sanitary ware product according to the invention, it is ensured that the toilet bowl is washed hygienically without the need for any additive in the reservoir or the sanitary ware product bowl.
