Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain simple and effective deodorization by using a single substance of a complex of manganese dioxide, copper oxide and zinc oxide as a main constituent, or carrying the above oxide on the surface of a porous material to form a deodorant, and performing forced ventilation with a ventilating fan. CONSTITUTION:When a main switch 11 is turned on, a power indicator lamp 12 is lighted, and an infrared sensor 4 starts the detecting operation. When a person enters the detection range of the infrared sensor 4, it detects the infrared rays emitted by the person and transfers them to a control substrate 5, a ventilating fan 3 is operated to start the deodorizing operation, and an operation indicator 13 is lighted. When the ventilating fan 3 is operated, the odor in a toilet is sucked from a suction port 14 through a pre-filter 15, and the odor is discharged to the outside of a device from a discharge port 16 through a deodorant 2. Honeycomb-shaped alumina is used for a porous material, and manganese dioxide or copper oxide is stuck on the surface to form the deodorant 2, for example. The same effect can be obtained when zinc oxide is used. The deodorant constituent is carried on the porous material for use.

In this case, when hydrogen sulfide is inhaled, odor-causing components are not released into the exhaled vagina, but in the case of methyl mercaptan, the concentration of methyl mercaptan is half the concentration of methyl mercaptan when dimethyl disulfide is inhaled. . Although dimethyl disulfide is not odorless, the odor is greatly reduced by halving the concentration and the difference in perceived darkness value.
