Description

Toilet deodorization system {CLOSESTOOL DEODORIZATION SYSTEM}

The present invention relates to a toilet deodorization system, when the user operates the lever of the toilet to lower the water after seeing the toilet in the toilet, by detecting the operation of the lever and the fragrance is sprayed, to remove the unpleasant smell after toilet and clean A toilet deodorization system for maintaining a toilet environment.

When using the toilet in daily life, after seeing the toilet on the toilet, unpleasant odors generated from the toilet are not removed, causing frequent discomfort to other people using the toilet.

Therefore, various efforts have been made to solve such problems, and typically, various types of ducts and fans are installed in toilets or toilet seats to remove bad odors and to inject deodorants and fragrances.

However, this method has a problem of replacing or repairing the existing toilet, toilet seat, toilet cover, ventilation system, etc., which is cumbersome and expensive, and thus lacks practicality and is not common to date.

Therefore, a more practical method is to detect the stool and automatically spray a good fragrance to give a good effect. Recently released fragrances have many excellent products that do not mix odors and remove bad odors while leaving only good scents. This method is already used in airplane cabin toilets.

However, in order to use such a system universally in a home or an office, the general user should purchase it at a low cost and install it easily regardless of the type of toilet in use. This is a problem.

As an attempt to solve this problem, in the case of the toilet automation system of Patent Publication No. 2008-0045393, a sensor is installed on the toilet seat to detect a pressure that the user sits on the toilet seat and sends a wireless signal to the perfume sprayer to spray the perfume. I'm using.

However, this method also has a disadvantage that it is expensive and difficult to install by the consumer because the toilet seat of the existing toilet must be replaced.

In addition, this method overlooks the fact that the toilet seat equipped with the sensor may break or fail due to the fact that the man continues to listen and lower when urinating.

You can also think about installing a pressure sensor between the toilet seat and the toilet, not inside the toilet seat.In this case, however, the installation space is scarce and it is likely to fail due to the toilet seat being lifted up and down. There is also the possibility of failure due to water splashes over long periods of use.

Another problem is that men do not sit on the toilet seat when they urinate, so this system does not work at all, it does not deodorize, there is also a problem that can not be applied to toilet seat without toilet seat.

Therefore, the present applicant intends to make a system for easily removing the odor after the toilet by inexpensive and simple attachment by the consumer without fixing or replacing the ventilation system or the toilet, the toilet seat, the toilet seat cover.

To do this, first and foremost, how do you detect a person looking at the toilet in the toilet? In addition to the above-mentioned seat pressure method, it also detects the human body or movement in the toilet, and detects the sound of the toilet or water falling down. Although the method of recognizing the divergence of the present invention can be considered, there is a problem in that the system manufacturing cost is high and the malfunction is likely to occur. In particular, in the case of sensing a human body or movement of a person, a small household toilet may malfunction even when only nearby.

Secondly, it is also a matter of where to attach such a sensor separately to an existing toilet, and the type of toilet is unique and diverse, so it is not appropriate to install it. For example, if it is installed on the toilet seat cover, the toilet seat cover is also raised and lowered frequently, so it is likely to break down due to shock. In case of installation in a water tank, if a person sits on the toilet seat, the cover is difficult to cover the water bottle, and a toilet using a fresh valve without a water bottle cannot be installed. As mentioned above, when it is attached to the toilet itself, the toilet has a lot of contact with water such as overflowing water or stool. There is also the risk of falling or breaking in contact with the human body.

Third, there is a problem that does not work when the above-mentioned male urinate.

To solve all of these points, the best way is to link the operation of the lever to flush the water after the toilet.

However, if you want to physically connect the lever and the sensor, there are various types of levers such as lever lever pull down, side push, top push, toilet buttons, and fresh valve It is difficult and difficult for consumers who are unfamiliar with the machine to disassemble the lever and connect it to the sensor because the structure is different depending on the product.

The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, by providing a fragrance injection unit for accommodating fragrance and a motion detection sensor that the user can easily attach near the lever to flush the toilet water, the user to lift the lever after toilet It is an object of the present invention to provide a deodorizing system that can be removed by the consumer to simply install at a low cost by removing the unpleasant smell after the toilet by the motion detection sensor detects this and sends a wireless signal to the fragrance injection unit when operating.

In addition, by providing a control member for adjusting the detection direction of the motion sensor, to provide a toilet deodorization system that can adjust the detection direction of the motion sensor to correspond to the shape and position of the various levers on the existing toilet. There is this.

The present invention for achieving the above object is attached to near the operation portion made of any one of a lever, a button, a flash valve for flushing the toilet bowl motion detection sensor for detecting the operation of the operation unit; A fragrance injection unit attached to a toilet or inside the toilet and accommodating fragrance therein to inject fragrances; When the motion detection sensor detects the operation of the operation unit, characterized in that it comprises a control unit for receiving the signal from the motion detection sensor to control the fragrance injection unit to spray the fragrance.

The wireless transmitter may transmit a wireless signal to the air freshener when the motion detection sensor detects an operation of the operation unit. It is provided in the fragrance injection unit, characterized in that it further comprises a wireless receiver for receiving a radio signal transmitted from the radio transmitter to transmit a signal to the control unit.

In addition, it characterized in that it further comprises an adjustment member for adjusting the detection direction of the motion detection sensor to correspond to the shape and position of the operation unit.

The toilet odor removal device shown in the present invention is, firstly, without the repair or replacement of the existing toilet, toilet seat, toilet cover or ventilation system is attached only the motion sensor and the fragrance spraying unit, the price is cheap, second, the existing It can be attached to various types of toilets and even toilet bowls. Third, it is easy to install even for those who are not familiar with the machine. Fourth, the possibility of malfunction is low because it detects only the operation of the water lowering lever. It also works when a man urinates without sitting on the floor. Sixth, there is less risk of breakdown due to the possibility of contact with water or the human body even after long use.

Therefore, the present invention is very likely to be generalized by simply changing the concept, so that consumers can easily remove the unpleasant odor after the toilet by simply purchasing it and installing it easily, regardless of what type of toilet is conventionally used. It is a breakthrough device.
