Improved Disinfecting Apparatus for Attaching to the Flushing
Pipes of Water Closets and Urinals.
I, MILTON SYER, of 36 Rye Lane, Peckham, in the County of Surrey, Merchant,
do hereby declare the nature of this invention and in what manner the same
is to be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the
following statement :-
My invention relates to an improved disinfecting apparatus for attaching to the
flushing pipes of water closets and urinals, for the purpose of forcing a disinfectant
into the flush pipe or pipes and so through the water closet pan or urinal into the
drains.
Referring to the accompanying drawing, in which like letters of reference indicate
corresponding parts in each of the figures.
Fig. 1, is a side elevation of the apparatus fixed to a flushing pipe.
Fig. 2, is a front elevation.
Parts of the figures are broken off for convenience.
This invention is constructed with a glass bottle k having a female screw at the
mouth or nozzle, and in the said mouth I insert a metal screwed stopper i, the said
screwed stopper being provided with the usual india rubber ring. To the screwed
stopper I provide a metallic tube or bend 9 and fix at or near the end of the said
tube g a metal clip d. The end of the tube g is inserted in an opening formed in
the flush pipe a and secured to a back-plate c by screws or by any other suitable
means. An india rubber joint is provided between the clip d and the flush pipe
A small bent tube his inserted
so as to make a water tight joint at the connection.
loosely in the connecting tube g. The bottle k is attached to a loop or eyelet e by
a chain and ring j.
The working is that when the apparatus is fixed to a flush pipe and the bottle is
charged by a disinfectant the water from the flushing tank enters through the large
pipe into the bottle k and forces the disinfectant through the small pipe h into
the flush pipe a and so through the closet pan or urinal into the drains.
It will be understood that I do not particularly bind myself to use any material
size or shape of the apparatus, as the same may be varied in many ways within the
scope of my invention.
my
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of said
invention, and in what manner the same is to performed, I declare that what I
claim is
1. In a disinfectant apparatus for attaching to the flushing pipes of water closets
and urinals, the combination of the parts substantially as herein described and
according to the accompanying drawing.
2. In a disinfectant apparatus, the combination of the tube h joint b fixed to a
flush pipe by the clip d, substantially as herein described and for the purpose
specified.
3. In a disinfectant apparatus, the combination of the clip and backplate with the
chain and ring, substantially as described for the purpose specified.
4. In a disinfectant apparatus, the combination of the connecting tube or bend
