Abstract:
An additive injection unit for a toilet system comprising, in combination,an elongated housing comprising a substantially T-shaped hollow chamber defining a transverse cylindrical passageway and a perpendicular branch passageway, said housing adapted for connection in series with an input pipe for carrying a water stream directed to a toilet and for injecting an additive into said water stream, said branch passageway having a mouth forming an access opening through which additive can be inserted into said housing, andfirst and second mounting members having hollow cylindrical sections shaped to fit over and conform to a respective end of said transverse passageway, each of said mounting members being individually rotatable with respect to said housing and defining a mounting surface adapted to bear against and be supported by a base structure, anda resilient O-ring positioned between each of the mounting members and the respective end of said transverse passageway for providing a friction fit between said mounting members and said housing which permits said mounting members to rotate and move axially with respect to transverse passageway while securing said housing in place with respect to said mounting members.
