Abstract

A closet carrier for a water closet includes a faceplate, an adjustable coupling connected to and extending from the faceplate, the adjustable coupling being configured to be connected to the water closet, at least two vertical supports adjustably connected to the faceplate for supporting the system on a floor surface, and a fitting connected to the faceplate. The fitting includes an endplate, an inlet defined within the endplate, an intermediate portion, and a main body defining a main passageway. The fitting is connected to the faceplate by the endplate such that the inlet is in fluid communication with the adjustable coupling. The main passageway is placed in fluid communication with the inlet by the intermediate portion. The intermediate portion of the fitting is configured to accelerate a velocity of a flow of waste fluid from the inlet to the main passageway.

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION

[0001] The present application claims priority from U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 61 / 814,374 filed on Apr. 22, 2013, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] 1. Field of the Invention

[0003] The invention relates to wall mounted toilets and, in particular, to a carrier or a support system for adequately supporting a toilet and the weight of the user, and for placing the toilet in fluid communication with a waste fitting.

[0004] 2. Description of Related Art

[0005] Typical closet carrier systems and fittings are designed for mounting and supporting water closets that include a flush valve or flush tank that flushes the water closet with a volume of 1.5 gallons per flush or greater and for placing such water closets in fluid communication with a waste fitting. Accordingly, such typical systems have been designed to accommodate a large volume of flushed fluid. However, recently, flush valves and ...
