Patent application title: Flapper tank ball pendulum

Inventors:  Kun Yuan Tong (Suwanee, GA, US)
IPC8 Class: AE03D135FI
USPC Class: 4395
Class name: Tank only with outlet valve float type
Publication date: 2011-07-07
Patent application number: 20110162135



Abstract:

Flapper tank ball pendulum comprised a buoyant hollow ball which has a small bottom opening, a handle which is fixed at the top of buoyant hollow ball and a fenestrated cone-shaped shell which is fixed at the bottom of buoyant hollow ball. One can easily fasten its handle onto lever of toilet flushing unit. Flapper tank ball pendulum can be lifted by pushing downwards pushing handle of toilet flushing unit to drain whole tank of toilet water to flush human solid waste and also can be pushed downwards by elevating manually pushing handle of toilet flushing unit to close drainpipe of toilet water tank to stop draining toilet water. Only about one quarter of water in toilet water tank is enough to flush human liquid waste. Human urinate several times a day and defecate only once a day. Flapper tank ball pendulum can replace flapper tank ball to save huge amount of water to solve the shortage of water supplies in big cities in the States. When we find that toilet drainage is clogged during flushing toilet water we can elevate manually pushing handle of toilet flushing unit to descend flapper tank ball pendulum to close drainpipe to stop flushing.

Claims:

1. Flapper tank ball pendulum comprising a buoyant hollow ball, a handle, a director and a thumb screw fastener.

2. Said buoyant hollow ball is a hollow ball which connects said handle of claim 1 at its top and has a small bottom opening. Wherein said small bottom opening connects said director of claim 1 at its bottom.

3. Said handle of claim 1 is a long handle which has two parallel branches at its upper end and connects the top of said hallow ball of claim 2 at its lower end. Wherein said two parallel branches have several pairs of canals which each canal faces each other at opposite branch. Wherein said two parallel branches create a slot which is wide enough to admit loosely lever of toilet flushing unit.

4. Said director of claim 1 is a long cone-shaped fenestrated shell whose broad bottom end points upwards and connects the rim of said small bottom opening of claim 2 and whose tip points downwards and extends into drainpipe of toilet water tank when flapper tank ball pendulum is lifted.

5. Said thumb screw fastener of claim 1 can pass tightly through said canals on parallel branches of claim 3 and passes loosely through existent canal on lever of toilet flushing unit.

Description:

THE BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0001] Once flapper tank ball of toilet water tank is lifted water in toilet water tank has to drain completely before flapper tank ball can close drainpipe to stop drainage. Besides chain which connects flapper tank ball will sometime sits on the opening of drainpipe to prevent the flapper tank ball from completely closing drainpipe.

THE BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0002] Flapper tank ball pendulum consists of a buoyant hollow ball, a built-in handle on the top and a built-in director at the bottom. It can be lifted to open drainpipe to flush all water in toilet tank and also can be pushed down manually at any time to stop draining water. Only about one quarter of water in toilet water tank is enough to flush liquid human waste. People urinate several times a day and defecate once a day. Flapper tank ball pendulum can replace flapper tank ball to save huge amount of water to solve the shortage of water supplies in big cities in the States.

THE DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0003] FIG. 1 is a perspective view of flapper tank ball pendulum.

[0004] FIG. 2 is a dissection view of flapper tank ball pendulum.

[0005] FIG. 3 is a partially dissecting view of toilet water tank.

THE DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0006] Referring now in detail to the drawings numeral 10 of FIG. 1 is flapper tank ball pendulum. Numeral 11 of FIG. 2 is dissection view of flapper tank ball pendulum 10 of FIG. 1. Numeral 12 of FIG. 3 is toilet water tank. Numeral 13 of FIGS. 1 and 3 is a buoyant hollow ball of flapper tank ball pendulum 10 of FIG. 1. Numeral 14 of FIG. 2 is dissection view of buoyant hollow ball 13 of FIG. 1. Numeral 15 of FIGS. 1 and 3 is fenestrated director. Numeral 16 of FIG. 2 is dissection view of fenestrated director 15 of FIG. 1. Numeral 17 of FIG. 3 is drainpipe of toilet water tank 12. Numeral 18 of FIG. 3 is opening of drainpipe 17 of FIG. 3. Fenestrated director 15 of FIGS. 1 and 3 is encircled by drainpipe 17 of FIG. 3 to prevent buoyant hollow ball 13 of FIGS. 1 and 3 from swinging away from the opening 18 of drainpipe 17 of FIG. 3. Numeral 19 Of FIGS. 1 and 3 is handle. Numeral 20 of FIG. 2 is dissection view of handle 19 of FIGS. 1 and 3. Numeral 21 of FIGS. 1 and 3 is top branch of handle 19 of FIGS. 1 and 3. Numeral 22 of FIG. 2 is dissection view of top branch 21 of FIGS. 1 and 3. Numeral 23 of FIGS. 1, 2 and 3 is slot between two top branches 21 of FIGS. 1 and 3. Numeral 24 of FIGS. 1, 2 and 3 is canal of top branch 21 of FIG. 1. Numeral 25 of FIG. 1 is thumb screw. Thumb screw 25 of FIG. 1 can pass tightly through canal 24 of FIGS. 1, 2 and 3. Numeral 26 of FIG. 3 is toilet flushing unit. Numeral 27 of FIG. 3 is pushing handle of toilet flushing unit 26 of FIG. 3. Numeral 28 of FIG. 3 is lever of toilet flushing unit 26 of FIG. 3. Slot 23 of FIGS. 1, 2 and 3 can admit easily lever 28 of FIG. 3. After adjusting level of buoyant hollow ball 13 of FIG. 3 at desire level one can fasten top branches 21 of FIG. 3 to lever 28 of FIG. 3 by screwing thumb screw 25 of FIG. 1 into canal 24 of FIGS. 1 and 2 and the existent canal of lever 28. After using toilet user can push down pushing handle 27 of FIG. 3 to flush toilet with water and also can elevate manually pushing handle 27 to descend buoyant hollow ball 13 to close opening 18 of FIG. 3 to stop flushing water. About one quarter of water in toilet water tank is enough to flush human liquid waste. People urinate several times a day and defecate only once a day. Flapper tank ball pendulum 10 of FIGS. 1 and 3 can replace toilet flapper tank ball to save huge amount of water to solve the shortage of water supplies in big cities in the States. When we find that toilet is clogged during flushing toilet water we can lift manually pushing handle 27 of toilet flushing unit 26 to push flapper tank ball pendulum 10 downwards to close the opening 18 of drainpipe 17 to stop flushing water to prevent overflow of toilet
