Abstract:

Ventilated systems for toilets include extractor fan and pipe adopted for easy connection, to draw odour air from the toilet bowl. Ventilator draws odour directly from toilet bowl to air intake duck trough a pipe and outside the room. Could be connected to a soil pipe. Ventilator has build in a aperture so odour air can not go back—could go only in one direction.

The pipe (FIG. 9) is created to flush water from a cistern and also ventilate air from the toilet. That air could be ventilated in the same time when we flush the toilet and that not affect ventilated process.

First type of toilet (FIG. 1) is made to ventilate odour air from the toilet. Odour air go in the toilet bowl same way, which the water going out. Then to separate air intake duck, from there going through plastic pipe and through ventilator go outside.

Second type of toilet (FIG. 5) is made to ventilate odour air from the toilet. There are visible holes are created to suck the air in to the toilet bowl. That air goes in air intake duck, from there going through plastic pipe and through ventilator go outside. Their holes are created also to have direct access for liquid like bleach or different one, which smell nice. That liquid will be storage on the bottom and around on this channel (FIG. 6 , point L), where little tiny holes created (FIG. 6 point J), so that liquid could be released slowly by gravitation to channel (FIG. 6. point K). When we flash toilet water going around in channel (FIG. 6 point K), rinse some of the liquid, which is on top channel K and provide nice fresh smell every time we flush water.

FIG. 6

Show toilet view from the top. The broken line shows invisible elements.

A. From that place all ventilated air is going out from a toilet. In this place plastic pipe will be fitting in horizontally. Then will go outside the toilet in few different directions:
- a), b), c)—are not shown on this drawings but I shortly describe:
- a) Strait to the wall, connected to ventilator, strait outside.
- b) Strait to the wall, up vertically, connected to a ventilator, horizontally outside wall.
- c) Right or left in, or before wall, up connected to a ventilator, then to soil pipe, or outside. So if we don't want to channel a wall, we have possibility run the pipes on the wall, make those connections visible, and box it.
B. These holes are to connect toilet bowl and cistern together.
C. These holes are to connect toilet bowl and toilet seat together.
D. These holes are created between level 2 (F), and top of the toilet G, to suck the air in to the toilet bowl. That air goes in channel L shown on (FIG. 3), which is located between level 2 and top of the toilet bowl. This air will go to point A where will go outside. There way are marks by their air arrows. On this drawing holes D are visible. There are created also to have direct access for liquid like bleach or different one, which smell nice. That liquid will be storage in channel L around holes J.
E. Level 1, where the holes (I) are located. There are made to the release flush water from the cistern to the inside toilet bowl.
F. Level 2 of this toilet—invisible from outside (mark by the broken line). Their holes D are located on this level.

I. Holes made around level 1. There are made to the release flush water from the cistern to the inside toilet bowl.
J. Little tiny holes created, so that liquid could be released slowly to channel K. When we flash toilet water going around in channel K, rains some of the liquid which is on top channel K and provide nice fresh smell every time we flush water.

So in toilet (FIG. 1) we don't see any holes and our toilet is ventilated. In toilet (FIG. 5) we see ventilated holes around and we have storage for smell liquid.

FIG. 9

This drawing shows pipe, which is created to flush water from a cistern and also ventilate air from the toilet. That air could be ventilated in the same time when we flush the toilet and that not affect ventilated process. This pipe could be used for all kind of existing toilets connected with cistern by plastic pipes, which is shown on (FIGS. 13, 14, 15.) If we fit and use for flushing first to see how it works without connect to another pipe—water not going to leak from the back. Connection with another pipe could be done any time after.

To make this works like flushing and ventilating we need to connect the pipe by sliding rings with another pipe, which is connected with extractor fun in that wall or on the wall.

What kind of extractor fun we can use shows on (FIGS. 10, 10A, 11, 12)

If we have toilets like on (FIGS. 13, 14, 15), we don't need to spend money for new toilets to have them ventilated. What we need? We need only this pipe and extractor fun shows on (FIGS. 11, 12)

A. Show the way where the air going in to the pipe from the toilet.
C. Show the way where air will go outside from this pipe and will be connected with another.
B. Show the way where water going through this pipe from the cistern to the toilet.

There are air and water arrows to help understand better these drawings.

FIGS. 10, 10A, 11, 12

Extractor fun created in the tube.

A. Direction of air.
B. Flexible rubber, which is open when extractor fun is on. When extractor fun is off the rubber is getting strait and closing way for the air to come back.
C. Motor area.
D. Rotated parts.

FIGS. 13, 14, 15.

Those drawings shows how we can use and connected pipe R, which is described on (FIG. 9), for many different types of toilets. All those toilets could be converting to be ventilated by fitting this pipe R and connected to extractor funs. (FIGS. 10, 10A, 11, 12)

Elements A, I, O, P, S, T, W are described on (FIGS. 2 and 3).

FIG. 16

This drawing shows left side of the ventilated toilet. Points A, B, C, D, E, H, I are described above but this time F is the top of the toilet. B, and C not shown on this draw to make this picture more clearly.

K. That is channel between level 1 and 2. In this place water running from point H to I points.
L. This is channel between level 2 and top of the toilet. Ventilated air coming from toilet bowl to I holes. Then to holes D, and from holes D to the point A where going outside to ventilator S or O.
M. Cistern, from where water going to the toilet bowl.
