Benefits of technology

"The invention is a small, dissolvable toilet stick that can be used to unclog, disinfect, and clean a clogged toilet. It is designed to be more convenient and sanitary than traditional plungers. The stick can be easily flushed away after use, eliminating the need for a separate plunger. This innovation offers a new and effective solution for toilet maintenance."

Problems solved by technology

A common drawback to these low consumption toilets, with the small water flushing head and volume, and the small and bending water / waste flow passages, is that the trap way passages 20 frequently become clogged by solid toilet waste / paper to preclude proper water / waste drainage from the toilet.

Embodiment Construction

[0024]An inventive toilet stick 40 is illustrated in FIG. 1 in operative association with the typical toilet 10, the toilet stick 40 being comprised of a elongated shaft 42 having a handle portion 44, with optional serrated edges 46 and pointed head 48 at the opposite shaft end. The toilet stick 40 is made of a composition of soluble disinfectant materials that also cleans, disinfects, deodorizes and dissolves away after unclogging the toilet.

[0025]Thus, the toilet stick with optional serrated edges 46 and shaft 42 should be sized to penetrate the clog 36 within the toilet trap way passage 20. The overall toilet stick 40 length is sized to locate its hand gripping handle portion 44 above the bowl top edge 34. The pointed head 48 should be long enough to reach into the bowl well 18 from the trap way passage 20. This would allow a user to grip the handle 44 above any toilet waste water in the bowl to manipulate the pointed head 48 through the clog 36 within the trap way passage 20.
