Mechanical trap toilet with staggered flush carry

Abstract

A toilet has a frustum-shaped bowl ( 26 ). Normally the bowl is hermetically sealed by a saucer-shaped valve and contains no water. Depressing button 72 automatically opens the saucer vertically down and rinses and flushes urine into an adjoining drain line with about 250 ml (0.25 gallons) of water. Depressing button 74 automatically releases a staggered flush capable of causing solid human waste, test plastic balls, or test condoms filled with tofu to carry further in the drain line. About 5.0 liters (1.25 gallons) is sufficient to carry solid waste to a sewer. About 250 ml (0.25 gallons) is sufficient to carry urine to a standard adjoining drain line; once there it flows gravitationally to a sewer main. 1.0 to 2.0 liters can carry 100 test plastic balls an average of more than 12 meters, (40 feet).

1 . A mechanical trap toilet, comprising:
 (a) a toilet bowl suitable for receiving solid human waste and for receiving urine,   (b) means for connecting said bowl to a drain line,   (c) means for flushing said human waste into said drain line with water with a staggered flush,   
       whereby said staggered flush carries said solid human waste more efficiently in said drain line. 
     
     
         2 . The toilet of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 (a) said drain line being a standard drain line,   (b) means for flushing said solid human waste into said standard drain line with a staggered flush,   
       whereby said staggered flush carries said solid human waste more efficiently in said standard drain line. 
     
     
         3 . The toilet of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 (a) said bowl being suitable for receiving artificial test media,   (b) means for connecting said bowl to a laboratory drain line   (c) means for flushing said artificial test media in said laboratory drain line with said staggered flush,   
       whereby said staggered flush carries said artificial test media more efficiently in said laboratory drain line. 
     
     
         4 . The toilet of  claim 2  wherein said water for carrying said solid human waste is about 6 to 8 liters (1.25 to 2. O gallons). 
     
     
         5 . The toilet of  claim 3 , further comprising:
 (a) Introducing 100 standard test plastic balls into said bowl,   (b) means for flushing said test balls into said laboratory drain line with a staggered flush,   
       wherein about 1.0 to 2.0 liters of said staggered can carry said plastic balls an average of more than 12 meters, (40 feet), in said laboratory drain line. 
     
     
         6 . The toilet of  claim 2 , further comprising:
 (a) said bowl having a bottom outlet,   (b) said toilet having a saucer shaped valve, aka a saucer,   (c) said saucer being normally hermetically sealed against said bottom outlet,   (d) means for rotably opening said saucer,   (e) urine can adhere to said bowl   (f) mea ns for rinsing said urine adherent to said bowl,   (g) introducing urine into said bowl while said saucer is open so that there being no obstructions in said bowl said urine can free fall into said adjoining drain line and gravitationally flow in said adjoining drain line,   
       whereby said toilet can rinse said urine which is adherent to said bowl into said adjoining drain line with less water. 
     
     
         7 . The toilet of  claim 6 , further comprising:
 (a) said water being about 250 ml (1.25 gallons),   
       wherein said toilet can save water. 
     
     
         8 . The toilet of  claim 2 , further comprising:
 a. using about 6.0 to 8.0 liters (1.25 to 2.0 gallons) for said solid human waste per person once a day,   b. using about 240 ml (0.25 gallons) for said urine about four times a day per person   
       wherein said toilet uses a total of about 6.25 liters to 8.25 liters (1.25 to 2.0 gallons) for said solid human waste plus said urine per person per day. 
     
     
         9 . The toilet of  claim 7 , further comprising:
 (a) means for receiving water from a water reservoir which is new, enlarged, or repaired when building said new reservoir, or enlarging, or repairing said water reservoir can cost about $1 to $3 billion,   
       wherein said toilet can defer the need for building, enlarging, or repairing said reservoirs for a burgeoning city population and thereby can save tax-payers billions of dollars. 
     
     
         10 . The toilet of  claim 7 , further comprising:
 (a) means for receiving water from a pristine valley which has been converted into a water reservoir,   
       wherein said toilet lessens the need for converting said pristine valley into said reservoir. 
     
     
         11 . The toilet of  claim 8 , further comprising:
 (a) means for delivering said solid human waste or said urine to a waste treatment plant,   (b) said waste treatment plant being subject to break down or becoming too small for said burgeoning urban population,   
       whereby said toilet can defer repairs or enlargement of said waste treatment plant, and thereby save tax-payers billions of dollars. 
     
     
         12 . A method for rinsing and flushing urine from a toilet into an adjoining drain line with less water, comprising:
 (a) toilet,   (b) said toilet having a bowl,   (c) said bowl having a bottom outlet,   (d) said toilet having a saucer shaped valve, aka a saucer,   (e) said saucer being normally hermetically sealed against said bottom outlet,   (f) means for rotably opening said saucer,   (g) means for rinsing said bowl,   (h) introducing urine into said bowl so that there being no obstructions in said bowl said urine can free fall into said adjoining drain line and gravitationally flow in said adjoining drain line,   
       whereby said toilet can rinse said urine into said adjoining drain line with less water. 
     
     
         13 . The toilet of  claim 12 , wherein the volume of said water for rinsing urine into said adjoining drain line is about 250 ml (0.25 gallons). 
     
     
         14 . The toilet of  claim 13 , further comprising:
 (a) means for flushing solid human waste into said adjoining drain line with a staggered flush,   
       wherein said staggered flush can carry said solid human waste further in said adjoining drain line and thereby save water and money.
