Abstract

This invention odor blocking invention has two claims. The object of this invention is to block any odor from escaping the toilet before it contaminates the whole bath room. Older toilets used more water, human waste had a chance to sink into the water, therefore blocking most odor from escaping. Low flush toilets use only 1.6 gallons of water, water saving is offset by generating more odor. Since most human waste remains above the waterline it generates unavoidable odor. 1 This toilet odor blocking bubbler system is mountable inside or outside of the toilet tank. The odor blocking system consist of small water container filled with soapy, scented water, foam, or some cases chemical spray to be pumped into the toilet tank to cover the human waste. Air pump creates bubbles in the tank, bubbles flow through the hose guiding bubbles into the toilet tank. By covering the human waste with scented soap bubbles it blocks any odor from escaping into the surrounding area. Pressurized foam can also be used to block odor from escaping. 2 The bubbles to cover the human waste as shown on FIG. 2 is guided through an embedded hose in the toilet seat. The object of this invention is to cover the excrement with bubbles (or foam) as fast as possible. Depending on the air pressure, volume of bubbles, design of toilet seat, several bubble nozzles could be installed for optimized area saturation.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is:  
     
         1 . Odor blocking is a low cost soap bubble innovation. Small container, such as a plastic bottle filled with soapy water attached to the toilet tank (or located inside the tank itself), aquarium type air pump pumps the air into the closed bottle creating the bubbles. Larger diameter plastic hose guides the bobble stream from the bubbler into the toilet bowl covering the human waste. Hose can be inserted between the toilet bowl and the toilet seat. Liquid soap based bubble or similar scented chemical can be pumped or sprayed on top of the excrement to block any embarrassing odor from escaping into the room. This invention makes the air freshener cans just about obsolete.  
     
     
         2 . The bubbles to cover the human waste as shown on FIG. 2 is guided through an embedded hose in the toilet seat. The object of this invention is to cover the excrement with bubbles (or foam) as fast as possible. Depending on the air pressure, volume of bubbles, design of toilet seat, several bubble nozzles could be installed for optimized area saturation. Foam under pressure can also be used, as the claim of this invention is, to cover the excrement
