AI Technical Summary
Bacteria, pests, and foul odors from septic tanks penetrate into the anus and air through the S-trap pipe of conventional toilets, posing health risks and unpleasant odors.
A pipe is fixed in a flange connecting the toilet and the sewage pipe, with a tube valve made of PVC, rubber, or vinyl, and a magnetic band to block the entrance when not in use, automatically opening with pressure during use to allow sewage flow and resealing post-use.
Prevents bacterial and pest ingress, maintaining hygiene and reducing odors by isolating the toilet from the septic tank, compatible with existing toilets without replacement.

Abstract
Description
Toilet germ prevention device
[0001] The present invention is a device that is inserted between a pipe connected to a toilet, and is opened and closed through a magnetic band (4) connected to a tube valve (5), and is a device that prevents bacteria flowing back through the pipe (1) from a septic tank from penetrating into the anus and the air through an S-trap (siphon principle).
[0002]
[0003] The toilets that are usually installed in bathrooms are made of ceramics and work on the principle that when a person defecates, the lever at the back is operated so that the water flows out and flows down through the S-trap (siphon principle) pipe. As such, they are connected to the septic tank through the pipe (1) and bacteria, pests, and bad smells come up through this pipe. The goal is to prevent bacteria from penetrating into the anus and the air.
[0004]
[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the problem of bacteria, pests and foul odors from septic tanks penetrating into the anus and the air by installing a bacteria penetration prevention device between the toilet and the pipe (1) so that all toilets can be equipped with toilets of the same standard and used as is without replacing the existing toilets.
[0006]
[0007] To achieve this goal, a pipe is fixed in a member called a flange (2) that connects the toilet and the pipe, and a tube valve (5) made of PVC, rubber, or vinyl is connected. Normally, the entrance is blocked by a magnetic band (4) and is isolated from the outside, but when the toilet is used and washed, the pressure generated naturally opens the entrance of the tube valve (5) by blocking the entrance with a magnetic band (4).
[0008]
[0009] According to the present invention, when the toilet is not in use, the magnetic band (4) of the tube valve (5) is blocked, thereby preventing bacteria from rising from the pipe (1) connected to the septic tank from flowing in through the S-trap (siphon principle), thereby preventing infectious diseases and maintaining pleasant health in the user's daily life.

[0021]
[0022] The present invention is described below with reference to the attached drawings.
[0023] As seen in Drawing 4, the structure of the invention is installed in a pipe (1) buried in the bottom of the toilet and the floor for draining sewage.
[0024] Looking at drawings 5 and 6 (rotated 90°), you can see a flange (2) that is fixed to the PVC pipe (1) on the floor to prevent sewage from leaking. A magnetic band (4) is placed inside the flange (2) around the PVC pipe (3) and the tube valve (5) made of PVC, rubber, or vinyl. When the toilet is not in use, the entrance is closed by the magnetic band (4), isolating the outside and the inside, thereby blocking bacteria, pests, and odors that may enter from the septic tank.
[0025] Also, as shown in Drawing 7 (rotated 90°), when using a toilet, pressure is generated as feces and sewage flow, and the pressure generated at this time automatically opens the tube valve (5), and when all the sewage flows out, it closes with a magnetic band (4).
[0026] Drawings 8 and 9 show double connection of tube valves (5) made of PVC, rubber, or vinyl to more strongly block bacteria, pests, and odors.
[0027] Drawing 10 also installs a bacteria penetration prevention device in the urinal to block bacteria, pests, and bad odors from rising through the pipe (1).
Claims
1. A tube valve (5) structure in which a tube valve (5) is installed inside a flange (2) that goes between the toilet and the pipe, and a magnetic band (4) is attached around the tube valve (5) so that it opens and closes magnetically so that it opens naturally due to pressure.
2. A magnetic tube valve (5) structure in which a low-flush band (4) connected to a tube valve (5) made of PVC, rubber, or vinyl is normally closed but can open and close due to the pressure of wastewater that naturally occurs when the toilet is used.
3. Install the bacterial penetration prevention device in duplicate as shown in Drawings 5 and 6.
4. Install the bacteria penetration prevention device in the urinal as shown in Drawing 7.
