Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial field of application] The present invention relates to a deodorizing device for preventing a bad smell from being generated from urine that has fallen around a toilet bowl.

[Conventional technology and its problems]

One of the causes of foul odors in the toilet is dropping urine onto the floor around the toilet bowl when the man is taking a small dose. When urine falls on the floor surface, a malodor continues to be generated from the residual components even after drying. Therefore, it is necessary to frequently clean the floor surface around the toilet bowl in order to prevent a bad smell from being accumulated in the toilet. Therefore, various deodorant measures have heretofore been taken in order to reduce the trouble of cleaning the toilet as much as possible.

It has been attempted to prevent the dropping of urine by devising the shape of the urinal exclusively for men. However, due to ergonomic restrictions, it is impossible to completely eliminate the fall of urine. This situation is a Western-style toilet that can be used for both large and small,
The same applies to Japanese-style toilets.

Deodorizing methods using fragrances are also widely adopted. This is a means for masking a bad odor by dissolving a chemical that emits a strong scent into the wash water or installing a volatile fragrance in the toilet. However, this method does not remove the malodorous component, and thus has the drawback that the inside of the toilet is not deodorized.

Further, it has been adopted to adsorb and remove a malodorous component by using activated carbon, but this method is inefficient, so that the deodorizing effect was low.

[Means for solving problems]

The present invention is intended to prevent a bad odor from being generated in a toilet by deodorizing a bad odor component in urine that has fallen on the floor. The feature of the present invention is that a concave portion is formed in the area around the toilet bowl where the urine is to fall, and it has a water-absorbing property and contains a deodorant that neutralizes or decomposes malodorous components to make them odorless. A flat deodorant plate made of an organic material is removably fitted and mounted in the recess, and the deodorant plate is set so that the smooth surface and the floor surface are flush with each other. is there.

[Action]

By providing the deodorant plate in the area where the urine falls on the floor around the toilet bowl, the urine drops onto the surface of the deodorant plate. Urine that has fallen onto the surface of the deodorant plate is absorbed by the deodorant plate, and the malodorous components in the urine are neutralized or decomposed by the deodorant contained in the deodorant plate. That is, the components causing the odor are deodorized. In addition, once deodorized, there is no possibility of renewing a bad odor, so that the deodorizing effect is excellent in sustainability.

Furthermore, since the deodorant plate according to the present invention is removable, it can be replaced with a new one when the deodorizing function deteriorates, and thus the deodorizing ability can be easily maintained.

Further, since the deodorant plate according to the present invention is fitted and mounted in the recessed portion of the floor surface, there is no risk of displacement, and
Since the surface is set so as to be flush with the surrounding floor surface, there is no possibility of the user tripping while walking, the floor surface is easily cleaned, and the appearance is good.

〔Example〕

 Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 shows an embodiment in which the deodorizing device according to the present invention is installed in a toilet in which a wall-mounted urinal 1 is installed. As shown in the figure, in the toilet in which the wall-mounted urinal 1 is installed, the planned urine drop area 2 corresponds to an area of the floor surface where the area directly below the toilet bowl 1 and the front side of the toilet bowl 1 are combined. Therefore, the deodorant plate 3 has a shape such that a semicircular protrusion 3a is provided on one side edge of the rectangular plate in accordance with the shape of the urine drop scheduled area 2.

The deodorant plate 2 is attached by providing a fitting portion 4 in the urine drop scheduled area 2 on the floor and fitting the deodorant plate 2 therein. This makes it easy to replace the deodorant plate 2 as needed.

The deodorant plate 3 is manufactured using ceramics such as pottery and ware. First, a pottery board or a bowl shaped in accordance with the shape of the expected urine drop area 2 is prepared. Porcelain and vessels are porous and therefore absorb water. Therefore, the deodorant can be impregnated into the inside by immersing the ceramic plate or the plate in the aqueous solution of the deodorant.

Ceramic deodorant plate 3 manufactured in this way
Has a water-absorbing property, and immediately absorbs urine when it falls on the surface. Therefore, not only the trace of urine does not remain on the floor surface, the appearance is improved, but also the degree of contact between the urine and the deodorant is increased, so that the deodorizing action is promoted.

The deodorant plate 3 can also be made of plastics. In this case, a deodorant may be added and kneaded before the plastics are cured, and then molded into a predetermined shape.

The deodorant contained in the deodorant plate 3 may be flavonoid, chlorophyll, ferrous sulfate, ferrous oxide, or the like.

The embodiments of the present invention are not limited to those described above. For example, FIG. 2 shows a toilet equipped with a Western-style toilet 5,
1 shows an embodiment to which the present invention is applied. Western style toilet 5
When used in both small and large sizes, it is inevitable that urine will fall to the floor around the toilet bowl. Therefore, as shown in the figure, if a deodorant plate 7 is provided in the urine drop scheduled area 6 around the toilet bowl 5, it is possible to prevent the odor of the toilet.

The above circumstances also apply when the Japanese style toilet bowl 8 as shown in FIG. Therefore, by providing the deodorizing plate 10 in the urine drop area 9 around the toilet 8, the generation of a bad odor is prevented.

[Effect of device]

The deodorizing device for a toilet according to the present invention has the excellent effects listed below.

Since the malodorous component in urine is neutralized or decomposed by the deodorant contained in the deodorant plate to make it odorless, the cause of the odor is basically removed. Therefore, the deodorizing ability is excellent, and there is no fear of a bad odor reoccurring.

Since the deodorant plate is detachably installed, it can be replaced immediately when the deodorant function deteriorates. Therefore, since it is easy to maintain the deodorizing effect of the toilet, the labor of cleaning the toilet is significantly reduced. In addition, by exchanging the deodorant plate regularly, dirt and stains caused by dropping urine do not remain, so that the inside of the toilet can be kept nice and clean.

Since the deodorant plate is provided in the urine drop scheduled area around the toilet bowl, all the falling urine can be received by the surface of the deodorant plate.
Therefore, the deodorizing action is surely exhibited.

Since the deodorant plate is fitted and mounted in the recess of the floor surface, there is no risk of misalignment.

By making the surface of the deodorant plate smooth so that it is flush with the surrounding floor surface, there is no risk of users getting stuck when they walk, and the trapping when opening and closing the door is eliminated. Floor cleaning is also very easy.

Combined with the fact that the deodorant plate is made of ceramic or stoneware that is relatively close to the material of the flooring, this makes it possible to create a visual unification with the floor, in combination with setting it flush with the floor. Not only does it improve the appearance because it gives a feeling, but the user selects a material with relatively high rigidity that does not dent or deform even when riding on it, so the floor feels when walking. The feeling of discomfort with the surface is extremely reduced.
