Benefits of technology

This patent describes a method of flushing a toilet using ozone gas produced by a gas generator or stored in a gas reservoir, which can be replaced or refilled on site. The use of a pressure vessel eliminates the need for a fan and allows for easier handling of the flushing gas. It is recommended to close the lid of the flush toilet to maximize the contact time between the flushing gas and the bowl surface for more effective disinfecting. The technical effects of this patent include improved efficiency and convenience of flushing with ozone gas.

Embodiment Construction

[0033]FIG. 1 shows a schematic diagram of a water closet 1 according to the invention comprising a flush toilet 2 with a bowl 3 (see also FIG. 2). Also provided is a flushing device 4, comprising a flush water tank 5 and a flush water feed line 6, through which the flush water tank 5 is connected to a connector socket 7 of the flush toilet, which is usually made of ceramic or porcelain. In the present example, the flush water entering through this feed line arrives in a water ring 8, through which it can flow into the bowl by way of appropriate perforations in the water ring 8. The arrows shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 show the basic way in which the flush water can potentially flow.

[0034]In a manner known in and of itself, the flush toilet naturally also comprises a connecting flange 9 for a wastewater line. Also mounted on the flush toilet is a seat-lid combination 10, comprising a seat 11 and a lid 12.

[0035]The flushing device 4 is installed behind a front wall 13, wherein a mounting fra...

Whereas in the past it was possible to clean the flush toilet only with the supplied flush water, which flows through the flush toilet after use, special surface coatings have been developed recently, which can be used to coat the surface of the flush toilet, at least in the area of the bowl, the goal of the coating being to decrease the amount of material adhering to the bowl and thus to reduce the need to clean the flush toilet. In conjunction with an appropriate supply of ...
