Definitions
- the present invention relates to methods and systems for reducing or eliminating odors in a room, particularly those associated with bathroom toilets.
- a system for reducing odors associated with a plumbing unit comprising (a) at least one air intake port disposed in the vicinity of the plumbing unit; (b) air displacement means for inducing air into the at least one air intake port; and (c) a piping system through which the air from the at least one air intake port moves to an exhaust location; characterized in that the exhaust location is in a water trap associated with the plumbing unit.
- a method for reducing odors associated with a plumbing unit coupled to a sewer pipe comprising collecting air containing odors from the vicinity of the plumbing unit and exhausting said air into the downstream portion of a water trap associated with the plumbing unit.
- the air displacement means is an air blower which is preferably external to the toilet, as is the exhaust pipe leading from the air blower to the sewer pipe.
- the system further includes sound muffling means for muffling the sound of exhausted air entering the downstream portion of the water trap of the toilet.
- the present invention successfully addresses the shortcomings of the presently known configurations by providing a system and method for reducing or eliminating toilet odors in a way which does not require the ducting of exhaust air to the outside of the dwelling and which ensures that no odors from the sewer system are able to enter the bathroom.
- the method and system of the present invention involves collecting air, preferably from the vicinity of the toilet, and exhausting the air into the water found in the downstream portion of the water trap commonly found in modern toilets.
- the present invention is of a method and system for removing undesirable odors, most particularly toilet odors and kitchen odors. While the method and system are applicable to any plumbing unit, i.e., sink, toilet, irrigation drain, from the area of which it is desired to remove odor-carrying air, they are described hereinbelow with regard to toilets for ease and convenience of description.
- the system When applying the system to toilets, the system can be retrofitted onto an existing toilet but is preferably installed on new toilets by the original manufacturer.
- the toilet bowl can be modified to include the system of the invention as an integral part thereof, or the existing toilet bowl or fresh water feed pipe can be cut and the system of the invention screwed in place therein.
- FIG. 1 illustrates a system according to one embodiment of the present invention.
- Toilet 10 typically includes a base 12 which is permanently connected to the floor, a toilet bowl 14 , a toilet seat 16 and a toilet seat cover 18 .
- Leaving toilet 10 is a sewer pipe 20 which leads the contents of the toilet bowl 14 into the sewer system.
- Entering toilet 10 is a fresh water line 22 which is used for flushing.
- modern toilets such as the one shown in Figure 1, include a water trap.
- the water at the bottom of toilet bowl 14 must first rise before falling into sewer pipe 20 .
- the result is the presence, between flushes, of a pool of water, i.e., a water trap 24 at the bottom of toilet bowl 14 .
- the height of water trap 24 is typically determined by the lowest point of the upward kink in sewer pipe 20 .
- water trap 24 is effectively divided by a divider 26 which serves to induce better circulation during flushing.
- water trap 24 may be considered to be effectively divided into two portions -- an upstream portion and a downstream portion, based on whether gas released in water trap 24 will leave the water into toilet bowl 14 or into sewer pipe 20, respectively.
- the upstream portion of water trap 24 is considered to be all the water located to the right (or forward) of a vertical plane touching the right-most point of divider 26
- all the water to the left (or backward) of the vertical plane touching the right-most point of divider 26 is considered to be the downstream portion of water trap 24 .
- a system according to the present invention includes at least one air intake port. Preferably, several air intake ports are used. Most preferably, at least some of the air intake ports are located on, in, or in the vicinity of toilet 10 .
- FIG. 3 Shown in Figure 3 is one of many possible arrangements of air intake ports. Featured are a pair of front intake ports 40 , a pair of intermediate ports 42 and a pair of rear ports 44 mounted on toilet seat 16 . Also shown (in broken lines) are the corresponding take-up pipes 46 , 48 and 50 which run through or immediately adjacent to toilet seat 16 and which are used to convey the collected air to the blower. Preferably, toilet seat 16 is seated on a seal (not shown) which seals any gaps which would otherwise be present between seat 16 and toilet bowl 14 and which would otherwise tend to allow air to escape from toilet bowl 14 .
- An additional cover intake port 52 with its dedicated take-up pipes 54 is included at the lower portion of toilet seat cover 18 and is intended to capture any air which might escape capture by rear air intake ports 44 .
- the air intake port can be in the toilet bowl itself, as described in detail hereinbelow.
- a system according to the present invention includes suitable air displacement means for inducing air into the air intake ports and through the take-up piping.
- the air displacement means includes a suitable air blower 60 , preferably a blower which operates quietly.
- air blower 60 is located outside of toilet 10 so as to avoid possible contact of the electrical components of air blower 60 with moisture associated with toilet 10 .
- air blower 60 is electrically driven with energy being supplied from the household electrical system.
- Air blower 60 is preferably mounted either onto a suitable portion of the outside of toilet 10 or sewer pipe 20 or is mounted (as shown in Figure 1) to the wall 62 with a suitable mounting member 64 .
- a system according to the present invention includes a piping system through which the air collected by the various air intake ports moves to an exhaust location.
- a system according to the present invention is configured so that the take-up pipes from the various air intake ports (for example, see Figure 3) come together to form a single take-up pipe 66 which is connected to the suction side of air blower 60 .
- the exhaust side of air blower 60 is connected to an exhaust pipe 68 which leads the collected air to the proper exhaust location, as described below.
- exhaust pipe 68 runs on the outside of toilet bowl 14 , so as not to interfere with the normal operations of toilet 10.
- Exhaust pipe 68 may be clamped or otherwise attached to sewer pipe 20 or to some other suitable structure using various clamps 70 or outer mechanisms.
- the system and method according to the present invention are characterized in that the exhaust location is not the outside of the dwelling or in a location from which the odors can return into the area from which they have been removed. Rather, the exhaust location is a water trap which acts as a one-way valve for passage of odors.
- the exhaust location is the downstream portion of water trap 24 , as that location was described above.
- the exhaust location is at the side of the downstream portion of water trap 24 of toilet 10 , as shown in Figure 1.
- the location of the exhaust in water trap 24 rather than directly in the air-filled portion of sewer pipe 20 is critical in that the presence of water around the exhaust ensures that no odors from the sewer system will be able to enter the exhaust pipe and enter the bathroom.
- the release of the air in the downstream portion of water trap 24 ensures that any odors which might escape from the water will enter the air-filled sewer pipe 20 rather than the air space above water trap 24 in toilet bowl 14 from where the odors could escape into the bathroom.
- one result of releasing air directly into the water is that the release may be accompanied by the generation of bubbling sounds which some users might find objectionable.
- Another disadvantage is that bubbling might lead to the premature loss of water to the sewer line. It is thus preferable to include a suitable muffling system which will tend to reduce or eliminate the bubbling sounds in question and which will preferably also prevent the premature escape of water to the sewer. Various ways of accomplishing this may be envisioned.
- Figure 2 is a cross-sectional back view of the downstream portion of water trap 24 specifically showing exhaust pipe 68 and its entrance into water trap 24 .
- the passage through which air enters water trap 24 features an upward turn of approximately 180° so that air is exhausted in a substantially vertical orientation.
- the entrance region 92 which could be part of either toilet 10 (as in Figure 2) or exhaust pipe 68 , includes a barrier 90 which directs the incoming air upward into the downstream portion of water trap 24 .
- the top of barrier 90 is flush with, or extends slightly above, the water level.
- barrier 90 extends in a direction toward the upstream portion of water trap 24 so as to prevent water from the downstream portion of water trap 24 from splashing into sewer pipe 20 and thereby lowering the water level in toilet bowl 14 .
- Barrier 90 includes a small opening 80 therethrough which serves to fill the entrance region with water and form a proper water seal so as to prevent sewer odors from entering sewer pipe 68 .
- the exhaust of air would be as follows.
- air blower 60 When air blower 60 is first activated, air would be forced through exhaust pipe 68 .
- the first flow of air would displace water present in the entrance region 92 upwards, in effect releasing a bubble near the top portion of barrier 90 .
- the magnitude of the air flow and the size of entrance region 92 are preferably such that once the initial air breaks through to the surface, flow of air to the surface is continuous and no sound-producing bubbles are generated.
- the trickle of water which enters entrance region 92 through opening 80 will be pulled upward with the air.
- a system according to the present invention may be activated by a manually operated switch or could be activated automatically in any of a number of ways.
- an automatic switch could be installed so that the blower is activated whenever toilet seat cover 18 is raised or whenever toilet seat 16 is lowered.
- activation may occur through the use of sensors, such as visual sensors which detect the presence of a user or weight sensors which sense when a user is sitting on toilet seat 16 .
- a separate unit for receiving the collected air and for releasing the air into the sewer pipe downstream of the water trap is provided.
- This embodiment is suitable both for retrofit applications on existing toilet equipment wherein a hole is drilled, and for use on a new toilet which is formed with an aperture in the toilet bowl.
- a standard toilet bowl 14' with an aperture 15 therein for receiving an odor-removing unit 170 .
- Odor-removing unit 170 is sealed in aperture 15 as by an O-ring 172 .
- Odor-removing unit 170 includes an air intake pipe 174 extending, in this embodiment, from an air intake port 176 .
- Air displacement means 178 preferably an air blower, is disposed in air intake pipe 174 which ends in a hooked portion 180 .
- Hooked portion 180 has an inlet 182 into a water-bearing cup element 184 and an outlet 186 into an exhaust pipe (not shown), preferably in the sewer line. According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, hooked portion 180 is twisted such that outlet 186 is perpendicular to inlet 182.
- Cup element 184 includes a shield 188 which extends to or slightly above the water level in toilet bowl 14' .
- a small diameter water inlet 190 is provided in shield 188 so that water can flow from water trap 24' into cup element 184 .
- shield 188 is higher than the highest point of inlet 182 so that odors from the sewer system cannot enter toilet bowl 24' .
- an aperture for the air intake port is integrally formed with the toilet bowl during manufacture.
- a toilet bowl is shown in Fig. 10.
- air intake port 176' is formed by making a groove in the rim of the toilet bowl 177' which is covered, as with a plastic cover, to form pipe 174' carrying the air to the odor removing unit.
- Air intake port 176' may be formed at the end of the bowl, as illustrated, or on the side thereof.
- a separate aperture 200 is formed in toilet bowl 202 to form an air intake port adjacent the fresh water inlet aperture 204 .
- This embodiment has the added advantage that no water will be accidentally carried to the blower with the odor-carrying air.
- a separate odor removing unit may be mounted equally effectively in a location other than the toilet bowl. This permits minimal modification of the existing plumbing unit and is, thus, particularly suitable for retrofitting on existing units.
- One embodiment of such a unit is shown in Figs. 4 and 5.
- the odor removing unit is shown in two side views in Figures 4 and 5.
- the unit may be installed at any convenient location, for example, mounted onto the outside of the sewer, and can be made of any convenient material, preferably a suitable plastic. Most preferably, the unit is mounted behind a conventional toilet bowl, coupled to the sewer pipe.
- the unit includes an inlet 100 , which corresponds to exhaust pipe 68 of Figure 1, for bringing odor-containing air into the unit.
- the unit further includes an outlet 102 which exhausts air into sewer pipe 20 ( Figure 1), preferably into a portion of sewer pipe 20 which is downstream of the water trap and air-filled and where sewer pipe 20 is made of a plastic material.
- the unit further includes a fresh water inlet 104 which is preferably connected via a small diameter pipe (not shown) to the fresh water feed line of the toilet at a point downstream of the toilet valve, so that water is introduced into the unit through fresh water inlet 104 during flushing of the toilet.
- Outlet 102 is located so that its lowest point is above the highest point of inlet 100 .
- Inlet 100 is located in the side of the unit and its entrance is provided with a shield 106 which is designed to allow air to enter the unit through the water which fills the bottom portion of the unit and inlet 100 .
- a small hole 108 in shield 106 ( Figure 4) allows water from the main compartment of the unit to flow into the area beyond shield 106 until the water level in this area is the same as that of the water in the main compartment of the unit.
- the unit functions as follows.
- air is pushed through inlet 100 and rises into the air space at the top of the unit.
- the water within shield 106 is pushed outwards together with the air. From there the air exits the unit through outlet 102 directly into the air-filled portion of the sewer pipe downstream of the water trap.
- the blower is turned off, water from the main compartment of the unit seeps through hole 108 into the area beyond shield 108 , thereby reforming the water trap which serves to prevent any odor-carrying air from travelling from the sewer through outlet 102 and through inlet 100 and back into the room.
- a small amount of water flows into the unit to ensure that the water level is at the proper level at all times.
- the odor-carrying air is released into the toilet bowl, which is typically made of a suitable ceramic. It will be appreciated that creating an opening in an existing ceramic toilet bowl may be complicated or expensive.
- the release point is preferably well downstream of the water trap in the portion of the sewer pipe which is typically made of plastic, such as PVC, rather than ceramic. It is generally much easier and less expensive to drill a hole into a plastic pipe.
- FIG. 6 there is shown an alternate embodiment of the invention which is similar to that shown in Fig. 4 but is particularly suited for use in a kitchen sink or other sink in an area from which it is desired to remove odors.
- the air inlet 100' and shield 106' are located outside the siphon 101 of the sink.
- an aperture 103 with screw threads is formed in the conventional siphon 101 of a sink (not shown).
- An odor removing unit according to the invention is screwed onto aperture 103 .
- the unit includes an air inlet 100' and a shield 106' .
- the siphon 101 is coupled to a sewer pipe (not shown) through an outlet 102' .
- Operation of this embodiment is substantially the same as that of Fig. 4.
- Water from the sink fills the siphon 101 and the bottom of the odor removing unit through fresh water inlet 104' .
- a blower in the unit (not shown) is activated and the odor-carrying air is blown into inlet 100' .
- the air pressure forces the water out from shield 106' and the air is free to flow out through siphon 101 and through outlet 102' to the sewer pipe.
- a unit 110 for receiving and releasing the collected air is inserted into the fresh water feed line 112 of toilet 114 and coupled to sewer pipe 120 .
- fresh water feed line 112 performs two additional functions: sucking air and odors into unit 110 and providing water to a cup element which acts as a one-way valve to prevent odors from returning from the sewer pipe into the toilet.
- Unit 110 includes an inlet 116 and an outlet 118 .
- An arched pipe 122 couples inlet 116 with outlet 118 via an air blower 124 and a water-bearing cup element 126 .
- Pipe 122 ends in a hooked portion 123 from which water can be pushed by air pressure into cup element 126 .
- Most preferably the hooked portion is curved such that the outlet is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the inlet.
- Hooked portion 123 is provided with a small fresh water inlet aperture 125 through which water from cup element 126 enters to refill hooked portion 123 .
- Air and odors flowing through hooked portion 123 pass through an outlet pipe 134 into sewer pipe 120 , preferably downstream of the water trap of the toilet (not shown).
- a ball valve 128 is seated in inlet 116 and is retained therein by stop members 130 and 132 .
- a unit 150 for receiving and releasing collected air is disposed inside the fresh water tank 152 .
- Unit 150 includes a air blower 154 which sucks the collected odor-filled air from toilet 156 through a pipe 158 .
- the collected air is pushed by air blower 154 through a pipe 155 , which ends in a hooked portion 177 similar to that in Fig. 7.
- the air is blown through a water-bearing cup element 160 and out through an outlet pipe 162 to sewer pipe 164 .
- Cup element 160 defines a small fresh water inlet aperture 166 for permitting the inflow of water into the cup element to maintain the desired water level.
- a shield 168 depends into cup element 166 , the bottom of shield 168 being lower than the lowest part of inlet 157 to exhaust pipe 162 so as to prevent the return of exhaust gases therethrough. Operation of this embodiment is substantially the same as that of Fig. 7.
- the water trap formed by the hooked portion of the inlet pipe and the cup element acts as a one-way valve for odors, preventing their return from the sewer into the toilet or kitchen. It is a further particular feature of these embodiments that there is virtually no bubbling noise during their operation. This is due to the angled twist and the smooth walls of the hooked portion of the air intake pipe which permit the ready outflow of the water therein upon application of air pressure. Thus, no additional silencing means are required.
- the waste water continues to flow unimpeded through its usual pathway, and without soiling the elements of the system.
