Definitions

  • the invention relates to a hair trap or catcher intended for wash and shower basins provided with a fixed screen or drain basket, comprising
  • This type of hair catcher is known from patent publication US-1,935,128.
  • This prior described hair catcher does not lend itself to the type of wash and shower basins, which are provided with a fixed screen or drain basket commonly secured with a central screw surrounded by holes of the basket or screen.
  • a symmetric design and a spiral bristle section of the prior known hair catcher prevent its use through the hole of a fixed screen.
  • Patent publication FI-112968 discloses a hair trap or catcher, which can be placed from above without tools in wash and shower basins equipped with a fixed screen or drain basket.
  • the obstruction problem of a drain and water seal is solved with this prior known hair trap or catcher in such a way that the catcher, resembling a bifurcate bottle brush, is pushed into a drain pipe through holes located on the opposite sides of a screen or basket.
  • a trap or catcher in the form of a bifurcate brush is demanding in terms of manufacturing technology.
  • the article is required to have a simple design because, both for hygienic reasons and the stickiness of hairs, the hair trap is disposable in character and its maximum service life is no more than a few months.
  • Another drawback is a relatively great length of the bristles throughout the bristle segment, which, together with a bifurcate symmetric design, makes installation and removal of the catcher more difficult.
  • the bristles have a length distribution which changes consistently throughout the bristle segment, which is not the best possible length distribution in view of retaining hairs in the trap or catcher as the bristles are pulled up through screen holes.
  • the invention takes advantage of a combination, which includes on the one hand short bristles and on the other hand asymmetrically arranged long bristles.
  • the asymmetrically disposed long bristles extend in the body's direction only over a short stretch of length, yet are distributed sufficiently over the cross-sectional area of a drain pipe and constitute the actual trap or catcher.
  • the long bristles deflect against the short bristles, to which hairs are stuck by being clamped between the bristle members to enable pulling the same out through a hole in the screen or basket.
  • This requires a major difference in the lengths of short and long bristles and a clear division for segments of short and long bristles, such that a sufficiently lengthy segment of short bristles is located beneath a comparatively short segment of long bristles.
  • the trap Since the suspension and lift element extends at a right angle relative to the trap body and lies on the same side of the body as a longer dimension of the long bristles resulting from asymmetry, the trap will be easy to use and the asymmetry of bristles can be arranged correctly in a drain pipe, enabling also the use of a stopper or plug on top of the screen or drain basket.
  • the trap has an elongated body 1, having its top end deflected to a right angle for a suspension and lift element 2, 5.
  • the trap is most conveniently implemented as a bottle brush, by twining bristles 3, 4 between two wires.
  • the intertwined wires constitute the body 1, having its continuous extension 2 and a wire ring 5 at its end make up a suspension and lift element.
  • Other materials, e.g. plastics, may also be acceptable, in which case the bristles 3, 4 and the body 1 may consist of the same material.
  • the bristles 3, 4 are only attached over a section of the body's 1 length.
  • a segment formed by short bristles 4 which is followed by a segment of longer bristles 3 arranged asymmetrically relative to the body 1, wherein the bristles 3 have a length which is multiple compared to that of the short bristles 4.
  • a sharp transition phase which is shorter than the length of the bristle segment 4, preferably shorter than the length of the bristle segment 3 or, most preferably, the transition from short to long bristles occurs the way of a direct jump.
  • the segment of short bristles 4 is at least twice, preferably at least three times longer than the segment of long bristles 3.
  • the long bristles 3 have a length which is at least three times that of the short bristles.
  • the sizing of bristles is implemented in such a way that the short bristles 4 have a length of 6-10 mm, preferably about 7-8 mm, and the long bristles 3 have a length of 20-35 mm, preferably about 25-30 mm. Traps can be manufactured in various sizes for various applications.
  • bristles can be readily pressed through a comparatively small hole in the screen or basket while the length of short bristles is less than the diameter of a typical screen hole.
  • the long bristles cover the cross-sectional area of a drain pipe over a section sufficiently large for hairs to stick and accumulate on the long bristles.
  • the long bristles deflect and turn against the short bristles, whereby hairs adhere to the short bristles and remain clamped between the long and the short bristles, and can be thereby pulled through a screen hole together with the trap.
  • the suspension and lift element 2, 5 extends asymmetrically in the same direction sideways from the body 1 as a longer dimension of the long bristles 3 resulting from the asymmetry of the bristles 3.
  • the ring member 5 will be in alignment with a screen fastening screw in the middle of the screen or slightly beyond it to the opposite side of the screen.
  • the body 1 is dimensioned in such a way that the bristles 3, 4 do not commence until below the screen attachment point.
  • the body 1 has a bristle-free length which is at least equal to greater than the length of a screen fastening screw.
  • the segment of asymmetric long bristles 3 must also be sufficiently short, since the length of this segment is not a factor to substantially enhance a hair trapping performance, but an abundant amount of long bristles would hamper the installation and lifting of a trap through a screen hole.
  • the long bristles 3 need not extend all the way from wall to wall in a drain pipe, since long hairs do not travel linearly.
  • a spaceous design also ensures an effortless flow of water.
  • the sequence of short bristles 4 has a length which is at least in the same order as the asymmetric dimension of long bristles 3 from the body on one side thereof.
  • the asymmetry of long bristles 3 relative to the body 1 in at least some of the bristles is at least 1:3, preferably at least 1:4. This ratio indicates which part of the bristles' length lies on the opposite sides of the body 1.
  • a circle drawn by the tips of the long bristles 3 covers most of the cross-sectional area of a drain pipe.
  • the short bristles 4 can be disposed symmetrically relative to the body 1. Viewed in the direction of the body 1 (fig. 3), the ring 5 places itself in the central area of this circle and makes sure that the trap does not slip into the drain and can be effortlessly withdrawn.
  • the wire-constructed body 1 can be deflected at a point closer to the bristles 3, and the end, which will be excessively long, can be deflected along with its ring 5 a second time and pushed through an opposite screen hole.
  • the bristles will be closer to the screen.
  • the trap extends to a lesser extent into a drain pipe and fits in a drain that has its section directed downwards from the screen shorter than usual.
  • the trap is generally installable also in a basin provided with a lever-operated stopper or plug, if necessary by reshaping the lift ring 5.
