Abstract
Description
- The invention relates to a cleaning and freshening unit according to the preamble of
claim 1. - Such a unit is known from European patent application EP-A-0 538 957. A drawback of the known cleaning and freshening unit is that as the livid level in the liquid reservoir falls it dispenses less liquid to the porous mass per unit of time. As a result thereof, the freshening action of the unit will decrease as the liquid level in the bottle falls.
- Another drawback of the known device is that the bottle communicates with the ambient air only via the porous mass. Therefore, the ambient air can only flow into the bottle with difficulty, so that there is a risk of reduced pressure being formed in the bottle which substantially limits the draining of the bottle. This effect, too, leads to a reduced release of liquid per unit of time as the liquid level in the bottle falls.
- The object of the invention is to provide a cleaning and freshening unit of the type mentioned in the opening paragraph which does not have the above-mentioned drawbacks.
- To this end, the cleaning and freshening unit is characterized by the steps defined in the characterizing part of
claim 1. - As a result of the suitably selected sizes of the at least one liquid passage opening and the at least one air supply opening it is achieved that the liquid pressure on the porous mass is always substantially equal and independent of the liquid level in the liquid reservoir. In general, the liquid passage openings will have larger sizes than the air supply openings. The air supply openings must be so small that as a result of the viscosity and the surface tension of the liquid therethrough, at least under normal conditions, no liquid discharges.
- The liquid pressure on the porous mass always being substantially equal and independent of the liquid level in the liquid reservoir, a constant saturation of the porous material will be effected during the whole service life of the bottle. Consequently, the drawbacks of the known unit have been removed with the cleaning and freshening unit according to the invention.
- As a result of temperature fluctuations the pressure in the liquid reservoir can rise above the atmospheric pressure. Thus, there is the possibility of liquid being forced outwards and flowing away via the air supply openings. Once this effect has occurred, the flow can be maintained under certain conditions as a result of capillary action. This may lead to draining of the bottle within a short time.
- In order to prevent this effect, the cleaning and freshening unit is characterized according to a further elaboration by the steps of
claim 2. The chamber must of course be of such construction that liquid flowing in the chamber is not drawn away by capillary action, at least can only via the porous mass leave the chamber or be drawn back into the bottle. - According to a further elaboration on the invention the cleaning and freshening unit is characterized by the steps of
claim 3. - The volume of the chamber being so large that the volume variations occurring as a result of temperature fluctuations of air contained in the liquid reservoir can be taken up herein, it is achieved that liquid will never flow out of the chamber via the ventilation openings.
- Further elaborations on the invention are described in the subclaims and will be explained in more detail by means of two examples of embodiment, with reference to the accompanying drawings in which
- Fig. 1 is a cross-sectional view of an example of embodiment of a cleaning and freshening unit taken along the line I-I of Fig. 2;
- Fig. 2 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line II-II of Fig. 1;
- Fig. 3 shows the separate bottle forming part of the cleaning and freshening unit in closed condition; and
- Fig. 4 shows a cleaning and freshening unit having a chamber provided with a bottom.
- The cleaning and freshening
unit 1 shown is provided with aholder 2 and abottle 3 detachably connected to theholder 2 and comprising aliquid reservoir 4. Theunit 1 is provided with suspension means 5 for suspending theunit 1 from a rim of a toilet bowl not shown. The unit is also provided with a porous liquid-absorbingmass 6 which always communicates with liquid F contained in theliquid reservoir 4. Theporous mass 6 is arranged in theholder 2 so as to be located in a path of the flushing water when theunit 1 is suspended from the rim of the toilet bowl. Theporous mass 6 may be, e.g., a sponge or a plate of sintered porous material. - The
holder 2 is provided with a connectingnipple 7 suitable for connection to a discharge opening 8 of thebottle 3, so that when theunit 1 is suspended from the rim of the toilet bowl thedischarge opening 8 is directed downwards. Of course, thebottle 3 is of such construction that thedischarge opening 8 is located at the lowermost point of thebottle 3, so that all liquid F can flow from theliquid reservoir 4 outwards via thedischarge opening 8. - According to the invention the discharge opening 8 of the
bottle 3 when connected to the connectingnipple 7 is partly closed by aclosing wall 9 provided with at least one liquid passage opening 10 which opens into aninlet 11a of a channel 11 abutting with anoutlet 11b having a limited surface against theporous mass 6, and provided with at least one air supply opening communicating with the ambient pressure. The sizes of the at least one liquid passage opening 10 and the at least one air supply opening are so adjusted to each other and to the viscosity of the liquid F contained in theliquid reservoir 4 that the liquid pressure on theporous mass 6 is always substantially equal and independent of the liquid level in theliquid reservoir 4. - In the present example of embodiment the
air supply openings 12 communicate with the ambient pressure via achamber 13 provided on the side facing upwards with at least oneventilating opening 14. Preferably, the volume of thechamber 13 is such that it can take up at least the volume variations occurring as a result of temperature fluctuations in air contained in theliquid reservoir 4. Thus, liquid is prevented from flowing outwards and being lost owing to a rise in the pressure in theliquid reservoir 4. Moreover, theliquid reservoir 4 is prevented from continuing to drain as a result of capillary action, so that theliquid reservoir 4 would be empty within a short time. Theventilation openings 14 are preferably located at a higher level than theair supply openings 12. When the air pressure in theliquid reservoir 4 falls, a portion of the liquid contained in thechamber 13 is drawn back again into theliquid reservoir 4. This drawing back will continue until the liquid level in the chamber has fallen so much that there is again a direct air communication between the ventilation opening 14 and theair supply openings 12. - As clearly shown in Figs. 1 and 2, the
holder 2 is made of a first moulded piece of which the suspension means 5 form part as well. In Figs. 1 and 2 it is moreover clearly visible that the connectingnipple 7, theclosing wall 9, the at least one liquid passage opening 10, the at least one air supply opening 12, the channel 11, and thewalls 15 bounding thechamber 13 form part of a second moulded piece detachably connected to the first moulded piece via asnap correction 16. Theporous mass 6 is fixed between the first moulded piece and the second moulded piece. In the present example of embodiment the porous mass is a plate-shaped element of sintered material. - As is clearly shown in Fig. 3, the discharge opening 8 of the
bottle 3 is closed by a closing cap 17 provided with afirst cap portion 17a and asecond cap portion 17b. Thesecond cap portion 17b is of such construction that when the bottle is placed on theholder 2 this second cap portion is pressed by aprojection 18 provided on theholder 2 into theliquid reservoir 4, so that thebottle 3 is opened and thedischarge opening 8 is formed. Thus, it is achieved that when thebottle 3 is placed in theholder 2 the bottle is opened simultaneously. Thesecond cap portion 17b preferably has a specific mass smaller than that of the liquid F, so that it begins to float. It is self-evident that thebottle 3 with the liquid F contained therein will be separately available. Thebottle 3 and theholder 2 are provided withprojections 19 andgrooves 20 which cooperate with each other in a manner such that thebottle 3 can be snapped on theholder 2. Moreover, theholder 2 is provided with a number ofslots 21 which increase the access of flushing water to theporous mass 6 and, moreover, give the ambient air free passage to theporous mass 6, which enhances the evaporation of the volatile substances in the liquid and the spreading of the substances. In a flushing operation a portion of the active liquid F contained in theporous mass 6 will enter the flushing water and performing its cleaning action therein, while after the flushing operation a portion of the active substance evaporates from theporous mass 6 and effects the freshening action on the surroundings. - It is clear that the invention is not limited to the example of embodiment shown but that various modifications are possible within the scope of the invention. Thus, for instance, the shape of the holder may be different and may, as shown in in Fig. 4, be provided with a
bottom 22, which further reduces the risk of flowing away of the liquid F. Moreover, it is possible that thebottle 3 is provided with another type of cap which must be removed before placing thebottle 3 in theholder 2.
