Automated toilet cleaning device

Abstract

An automated toilet cleaning device is an apparatus that dispenses an appropriate amount of cleaning solution into an excrement-related plumbing fixture (e.g., a toilet with a tank, a tankless toilet, a urinal, etc.) without hands-on intervention during each flush. The apparatus includes a source bypass, a fluid reservoir, a venturi manifold, a bypass flow-control mechanism, a reservoir flow-control mechanism, a flow-check valve, and a discharging port. The source bypass retrieves some water from the internal workings of the fixture. The bypass flow-control mechanism manages the flow of water into the venturi manifold. The fluid reservoir retains a liquid antiseptic agent. The reservoir flow-control mechanism manages the flow of liquid antiseptic agent into the venturi manifold. The venturi manifold mixes the water and the liquid antiseptic agent together into a cleaning solution, which is then dispensed by the discharging port during each flush.

Description

[0001] AUTOMATED TOILET CLEANING DEVICE

[0002] The current application claims a priority to the U.S. provisional patent application serial number 63 / 594,339 filed on October 30 2023.

[0003] FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0004] The present invention generally relates to an automated toilet cleaning device. More specifically, the present invention is a device that consistently dispenses the appropriate amount of toilet cleaning solution into a toilet tank without hands-on intervention, and without any battery or external power sources.

[0005] BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0006] Toilet cleaning systems encompass a range of solutions designed to enhance bathroom cleanliness and hygiene while reducing the manual effort required for maintenance. Automatic flush systems, for instance, activate the toilet's flush mechanism without user intervention, minimizing contact with potentially contaminated surfaces and aiding in germ control. Self-cleaning toilets feature mechanisms like UV light disinfection or specialized coatings to sanitize the toilet bowl and surfaces. Bidet attachments provide water-based cleansing after toilet use, offering a hygienic alternative to traditional toilet paper. Sensor-activated dispensers control the release of toilet paper, reducing touchpoints and waste. Hand dryers and touchless fixtures further promote hand hygiene and minimize germ transmission. Overall, these systems aim to improve sanitation, user comfort, and convenience in bathrooms across various settings.

[0007] It has long been known, that the automated toilet cleaning tablets that many companies produce, cause serious problems and damage to the rubber gaskets, seals and other parts within a toilet, as well as clog the flush valve and fill valve in toilets. The harmful chemicals, which dissolve at inconsistent rates during the life of the tablet, can cause chemical overload in the toilet tanks during the initial phase of the tablet, and then underperform during the mid and late-stage lifecycle of the tablet. This can cause further damage to the toilet and connected systems. These tablets also require a higher level of direct hands-on interaction / contact with the chemical elements. Other current automated toilet cleaning products, such as gels, toilet bowl rim attachments, etc., do not bring the actual cleaning solution in contact with the entire desired treatment area, allow human waste residue to accumulate on them, need to be manually applied to the dirty area, are inconsistent in their dosage concentrations per flush, and contain harmful chemicals that damage the toilets and the systems that the toilets are connected to. The current bottled liquid toilet cleaners which are hung upside-down or fixed into a submerged stand in the toilet tanks are equally inconsistent in their dosage guarantees, require direct hands-on interaction / contact to the chemical affected area, and still contain harmful chemicals that can damage the toilet and the systems that the toilets are connected to.

[0008] An objective of the present invention is to provide users with a system that is hands-free and without external power, automatically injects the correct amount of cleaning solution during each flush of the toilet. The present invention intends to provide users with a device that cleans and disinfects in a consistent manner to keep the toilet tank and bowl clean and safe. In order to accomplish that, a preferred embodiment of the present invention comprises a fluid reservoir housing, a water inlet tube, two flow control valves, a check valve, a fluid reservoir outlet assembly, a venturi manifold, and a biodegradable liquid toilet cleaning solution. Thus, the present invention is an automated toilet cleaning system that consistently cleans a toilet during each flush without damaging or clogging parts of the toilet.

[0009] SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0010] The present invention is an automated toilet cleaning system to help with providing the proper amount of cleaning solution to a toilet. The present invention seeks to provide users with a system that consistently cleans and disinfects a toilet without external power sources. In order to accomplish this the present invention comprises a fluid reservoir housing which holds a cleaning solution. Further, the water inlet tube flow control valve regulates the amount of water that flows into the fluid reservoir housing inlet assembly. Additionally, the fluid reservoir outlet assembly controls the water / fluid mixture leaving the fluid reservoir housing. Further, the fluid outlet flow control valve regulates the cleaning solution fluid volume into the venturi manifold and the check valve only allows fluid flow when the venturi manifold creates a suction to pull the fluid into the venturi manifold chamber where the water and fluid mix to ensure there is no clogging. Thus, the present invention is an automated toilet cleaning system that consistently cleans a toilet during each flush without damaging or clogging parts of the toilet.

[0027] DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0028] All illustrations of the drawings are for the purpose of describing selected versions of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0029] As can be seen in FIGS. 1-12, an automated toilet cleaning device is an apparatus that dispenses a proper amount of cleaning solution into the water that is refilling an excrement-related plumbing fixture (e.g., a toilet tank, a toilet bowl, or a urinal). Thus, the automated toilet cleaning device comprises a source bypass 2, a fluid reservoir 10, a venturi manifold 12, a bypass flow-control mechanism 20, a reservoir flow-control mechanism 26, a flow-check valve 50, and a discharging port 52. The source bypass 2 allows water from the internal workings of an excrement-related plumbing fixture to flow through the present invention and to be tapped by the present invention. The fluid reservoir 10 is used to retain a quantity of liquid antiseptic agent 54, which may further compose an aesthetic coloring, an aromatic agent, or a combination thereof. The venturi manifold 12 uses Bernoulli’s principle to mix a proper amount of water tapped from the source bypass 2 and a proper amount of liquid antiseptic agent 54 from the fluid reservoir 10. The venturi manifold 12 also uses Bernoulli’s principle to output a quantity of cleaning solution that is then dispensed by the discharging port 52 into water retained for flushing by an excrement-related plumbing fixture. The bypass flow-control mechanism 20 is used to adjust a flow rate of water entering the venturi manifold 12 from the source bypass 2. The reservoir flow-control mechanism 26 is used to adjust a flow rate of liquid antiseptic agent entering the venturi manifold 12 from the fluid reservoir 10. The flowcheck valve 50 is used to toggle between allowing a liquid antiseptic agent to flow from the fluid reservoir 10 into the venturi manifold 12 and preventing the liquid antiseptic agent to flow from the fluid reservoir 10 into the venturi manifold 12.

[0030] In order to route fluid through the source bypass 2, the source bypass 2 comprises a bypass inlet 4, a bypass outlet 6, and a bypass tap 8. The bypass inlet 4 allows water to enter the source bypass 2. The bypass outlet 6 allows water to exit the source bypass 2. The bypass tap 8 allows a bit of water flowing through the source bypass 2 to be used for a cleaning solution. As a first example, if an excrement-related plumbing fixture is a toilet with a tank, a refill tube would be connected into the bypass inlet 4, and an overflow tube would receive fluid flow from the bypass outlet 6. In addition, this first example would require that the bypass outlet 6 and the discharging port 52 are positioned offset from each other, which allows water to flow out of the bypass outlet 6 and into the overflow tube and allows a cleaning solution to flow out of the discharging port 52 and into the tank. Moreover, this first example uses a frame hook 58 that allows the fluid reservoir 10 to be hung within the tank, and the frame hook 58 is externally connected to the fluid reservoir 10. As a second example, if an excrement-related plumbing fixture is a tankless toilet or a urinal, the source bypass 2 would be spliced into a supply line so that the bypass inlet 4 would receive fluid flow from the supply line and so that the bypass outlet 6 would send fluid flow back into the supply line. In addition, this second example would require that the bypass outlet 6 and the discharging port 52 are in fluid communication with each other, which allows water flowing out of the bypass outlet 6 to combine with cleaning solution flowing out of the discharge port 52 back into the supply line. Moreover, this second example uses a wall mount 60 that allows the fluid reservoir 10 to be mounted on a wall adjacent to the tankless toilet or the urinal, and the wall mount 60 is externally connected to the fluid reservoir 10.

[0031] In order to route fluid through the venturi manifold 12, the venturi manifold 12 comprises a high-pressure manifold inlet 14, a low-pressure manifold inlet 16, and a manifold outlet 18. The high-pressure manifold inlet 14 allows fluid to enter the venturi manifold 12 at high pressure but low velocity. The high-pressure manifold inlet 14 preferably uses a high-pressure nozzle to generate a fluid flow into the venturi manifold 12 at high pressure but low velocity. The low-pressure manifold inlet 16 allows fluid to enter the venturi manifold 12 at low pressure but high velocity and is used to create enough vacuum pressure in order to draw fluid into the venturi manifold 12. The manifold outlet 18 allows fluid to exit the venturi manifold 12.

[0032] The general configuration of the aforementioned components allows the present invention to effectively and efficiently clean an excrement-related plumbing fixture during each flush without damaging or clogging parts of the excrement-related plumbing fixture. The bypass inlet 4 is in fluid communication with the bypass tap 8 and the bypass outlet 6, which allows water from the internal workings of an excrement-related plumbing fixture to primarily flow from the bypass inlet 4 to the bypass outlet 6 but also allows some of this water to be rerouted through the bypass tap 8 and used by the present invention. The bypass tap 8 is in fluid communication with the high-pressure manifold inlet 14 through the bypass flow-control mechanism 20, which allows the bypass flowcontrol mechanism 20 to adjust how much rerouted water from the source bypass 2 enters the venturi manifold 12. The fluid reservoir 10 is in fluid communication with the low- pressure manifold inlet 16 through the reservoir flow-control mechanism 26 and through the flow-check valve 50 so that the reservoir flow-control mechanism 26 is able to adjust how much liquid antiseptic agent from the fluid reservoir 10 enters the venturi manifold 12 and so that the flow-check valve 50 is able to simply turn on / off the flow of liquid antiseptic agent from the fluid reservoir 10 into the venturi manifold 12. The manifold outlet 18 is in fluid communication with the discharging port 52, which allows a proper amount of cleaning solution to flow from the venturi manifold 12 and out of the present invention into water retained for flushing by an excrement-related plumbing fixture.

[0033] The bypass flow-control mechanism 20 may comprise a bypass flow-control valve 22 and a bypass valve control 24. The bypass flow-control valve 22 is the actual mechanical component that controls the amount of fluid flow from the source bypass 2 to the venturi manifold 12. Thus, the bypass tap 8 needs to be in fluid communication with the bypass flow-control valve 22, and the bypass flow-control valve 22 needs to then be in fluid communication with the high-pressure manifold inlet 14, all of which define the fluid flow from the source bypass 2 to the venturi manifold 12. In addition, the bypass valve control 24 is operatively coupled to the bypass flow-control valve 22, wherein the bypass valve control 24 is used to adjust an amount of fluid flow through the bypass flow-control valve 22. More specifically, the bypass valve control 24 allows a user to manually adjust the amount of fluid flow through the bypass flow-control valve 22. The bypass valve control 24 is preferably a turn dial.

[0034] The reservoir flow-control mechanism 26 may preferably comprise a reservoir flow-control valve 28 and a reservoir valve control 30. The reservoir flow-control valve 28 is the actual mechanical component that controls the amount of fluid flow from the fluid reservoir 10 to the venturi manifold 12. Thus, the fluid reservoir 10 needs to be in fluid communication with the reservoir flow-control valve 28, the reservoir flow-control valve 28 needs to be in fluid communication with the flow-check valve 50, and the flowcheck valve 50 needs to be in fluid communication with the high-pressure manifold inlet 14, all of which define the fluid flow from the fluid reservoir 10 to the venturi manifold 12. Moreover, the reservoir valve control 30 is operatively coupled to the reservoir flowcontrol valve 28, wherein the reservoir valve control 30 is used to adjust an amount of fluid flow through the reservoir flow-control valve 28. More specifically, the reservoir valve control 30 allows a user to manually adjust the amount of fluid flow through the reservoir flow-control valve 28. The reservoir valve control 30 is preferably a turn dial.

[0035] The reservoir flow-control mechanism 26 may alternatively comprise a reservoir flow-control valve 28, a reservoir valve control 30, a hydraulic motor 32, a motor flowcontrol valve 34, a motor valve control 36, and a mechanical pump 48. The hydraulic motor 32 is used to convert hydraulic power into rotational kinetic power. Thus, the hydraulic motor 32 needs to be in fluid communication with the source bypass 2, which allows the water flowing through the source bypass 2 to rotate a rotor of the hydraulic motor 32. In addition, the reservoir flow-control valve 28 is the actual mechanical component that controls the amount of fluid flow from the fluid reservoir 10 to the venturi manifold 12, while the mechanical pump 48 is used to draw fluid from the fluid reservoir 10 and is then used to drive the fluid into the venturi manifold 12. Thus, the fluid reservoir 10 needs to be in fluid communication with the reservoir flow-control valve 28, the reservoir flow-control valve 28 needs to be in fluid communication with the mechanical pump 48, the mechanical pump 48 needs to be in fluid communication with the flow-check valve 50, and the flow-check valve 50 needs to be in fluid communication with the high-pressure manifold inlet 14, all of which define the fluid flow from the fluid reservoir 10 to the venturi manifold 12. Moreover, in order to power the mechanical pump 48, the hydraulic motor 32 is operatively coupled to the mechanical pump 48, wherein the hydraulic motor 32 is used to rotationally drive the mechanical pump 48 and is consequently used to adjust an amount of fluid flow through the mechanical pump 48. Furthermore, the reservoir valve control 30 is operatively coupled to the reservoir flowcontrol valve 28, wherein the reservoir valve control 30 is used to adjust an amount of fluid flow through the reservoir flow-control valve 28. More specifically, the reservoir valve control 30 allows a user to manually adjust the amount of fluid flow through the reservoir flow-control valve 28. The reservoir valve control 30 is preferably a turn dial. Also, the motor flow-control valve 34 is the actual mechanical component that controls the amount of fluid flow from the source bypass 2 to the hydraulic motor 32. Thus, the hydraulic motor 32 needs to be in fluid communication with the source bypass 2 through the motor flow-control valve 34. In addition, the motor valve control 36 is operatively coupled to the motor flow-control valve 34, wherein the motor valve control 36 is used to adjust an amount of fluid flow through the motor flow-control valve 34. More specifically, the motor valve control 36 allows a user to manually adjust the amount of fluid flow through the motor flow-control valve 34. The motor valve control 36 is preferably a turn dial.

The hydraulic generator 38 is used to convert hydraulic power into electrical power. Thus, the hydraulic generator 38 needs to be in fluid communication with the source bypass 2, which allows the water flowing through the source bypass 2 to rotate a rotor of the hydraulic generator 38. In addition, the reservoir flow-control valve 28 is the actual mechanical component that controls the amount of fluid flow from the fluid reservoir 10 to the venturi manifold 12, while the mechanical pump 48 is used to draw fluid from the fluid reservoir 10 and is then used to drive the fluid into the venturi manifold 12. Thus, the fluid reservoir 10 needs to be in fluid communication with the reservoir flow-control valve 28, the reservoir flow-control valve 28 needs to be in fluid communication with the mechanical pump 48, the mechanical pump 48 needs to be in fluid communication with the flow-check valve 50, and the flow-check valve 50 needs to be in fluid communication with the high-pressure manifold inlet 14, all of which define the fluid flow from the fluid reservoir 10 to the venturi manifold 12. Moreover, in order to power the mechanical pump 48, the hydraulic generator 38 needs to be electrically connected to the regulating controller 44, and the regulating controller 44 needs to be electrically connected to the electric motor 46. The regulating controller 44 is used to regulate voltage between the hydraulic generator 38 and the electric motor 46. The regulating controller 44 is preferably a printed circuit board (PCB). The electric motor 46 is used to convert electric power into rotational kinetic power. Thus, the electric motor 46 is operatively coupled to the mechanical pump 48, wherein the electric motor 46 is used to rotationally drive the mechanical pump 48 and is consequently used to adjust an amount of fluid flow through the mechanical pump 48. Furthermore, the reservoir valve control 30 is operatively coupled to the reservoir flow-control valve 28, wherein the reservoir valve control 30 is used to adjust an amount of fluid flow through the reservoir flow-control valve 28.

The generator valve control 42 is preferably a turn dial.

[0037] The present invention may further comprise a refill lid 56, which is used to access or close off a refilling hole 11 of the fluid reservoir 10. The refilling hole 11 allows the fluid reservoir 10 to be replenished with liquid antiseptic agent. Supplemental description

[0038] As shown in FIGS. 13-23, the present invention is a system to consistently dispense an amount of toilet cleaning solution into a tank water volume. An objective of the present invention is to provide users with an automated toilet cleaning system. The present invention intends to provide users with a device that does not utilize a battery or electricity to function. To accomplish this the present invention comprises a fluid reservoir housing, a water inlet tube, a fluid reservoir outlet assembly, two flow control valves, a check valve, a venturi manifold, and a biodegradable liquid toilet cleaning solution. The water inlet tube and fluid reservoir outlet assembly are connected to the fluid reservoir housing. Thus, the present invention is an automated toilet cleaning system that consistently cleans a toilet during each flush without damaging or clogging parts of the toilet.

[0039] The present invention holds a biodegradable liquid toilet cleaning solution with-in the fluid reservoir housing. The fluid reservoir housing is designed with a rectangular shape and plastic material. The fluid reservoir housing comprises a fluid reservoir, a fluid sight glass, a plurality of mounts, and a top cover cap. The fluid reservoir holds the biodegradable liquid toilet cleaning solution and comprises a fluid outlet where the biodegradable liquid toilet cleaning solution can leave the reservoir. The fluid sight glass is positioned adjacent to the fluid reservoir. The fluid sight glass is a tube that attaches to the top and bottom of the fluid reservoir with a see-through material to indicate the amount of biodegradable liquid toilet cleaning solution within the fluid reservoir. The plurality of mounts is positioned along the rear side of the fluid reservoir housing. The plurality of mounts is a clip device that allows for the fluid reservoir housing to secure to the side of a toilet tank without being permanently affixed. The top cover cap is a threaded cap or hatch that opens and closes the fluid reservoir to allow the reservoir to refill as needed as seen in FIG. 13. It should be further noted that the fluid reservoir housing can be created in many various shapes and sizes while still staying within the scope of the present invention.

[0040] The water inlet tube is positioned along the top of the present invention to receive an external water supply. In its preferred embodiment, the water inlet tube comprises a water inlet flow control valve. The water inlet flow control valve is designed to regulate water flow into the fluid reservoir housing inlet and the inlet water bypass. The water inlet flow control valve is accessible from outside of the fluid reservoir housing by the user allowing them to adjust the flow of water entering the present invention. The water bypass is designed to allow for excess water to be redirected within the water inlet flow control valve and to be expelled into the toilet overflow tube.

[0041] The fluid reservoir outlet assembly is positioned along the bottom of the fluid reservoir housing as seen in FIG. 17. The fluid reservoir outlet assembly creates a pathway and allows for the biodegradable liquid toilet cleaning solution to leave the fluid reservoir. The fluid reservoir outlet assembly comprises a fluid reservoir outlet tube, a cleaning fluid flow control valve, a spring check valve, and a venturi manifold. In its preferred embodiment the fluid reservoir outlet tube is connected to the bottom of the fluid reservoir.

The biodegradable liquid toilet cleaning solution is a high viscous disinfecting / cleaning solution with a water softener. The biodegradable liquid toilet cleaning solution is designed with various colors and scents to add to the customer enjoyment properties. In an alternative embodiment a hydro motor is utilized and positioned adjacent to the water inlet flow control valve. The hydro motor is powered by the incoming water supply and is coupled to a pump. This design allows for the system to utilize the pump to pull fluid from the fluid reservoir while reducing the pressure going into the venturi manifold. In an alternative embodiment a hydrogenator is positioned adjacent to the water inlet flow control valve and is coupled to a PCB as seen in FIG. 15. The PCB controls an electric motor that is mechanically connected to a pump which pulls fluid from the fluid reservoir. As the toilet is flushed the water flows through the external toilet refill tube into the fluid reservoir. At the water inlet tube the flow of water is controlled by the water inlet flow control valve. The cleaning fluid flow control valve controls the flow of biodegradable liquid toilet cleaning solution mixing with the flow of water. In another alternative embodiment the present invention is mounted along the outside of a toilet tank, with a water supply hose connection being positioned in the wall, connecting into the water inlet side of the present invention, and the water inlet flow control valve bypass side, and / or a water cleaning fluid mix discharge nozzle of the present invention connecting to the hose from the toilet fdl valve stem positioned on the toilet.
