Toilet Clean Pouch

Abstract

The invention is a directed to a long-handled rod that hangs on the top of the toilet water tank and extends down into the tank. The rod is retained in place within the toilet tank by a hook kept under tension by a latch. A resealable pouch is provided on the end of the rod which holds a toilet cleanser composition in tablet or liquid form securely in the tank. The resealable pouch is preferably composed of a water-permeable mesh material.

I claim: 
     
         1 . A toilet cleanser dispensing device comprising:
 (a) a vertical support;   (b) said vertical support being affixed to the inside wall of a toilet reservoir;   (c) said toilet reservoir containing a quantity of water that is continually replenished and flushed out through the normal use of an associated toilet;   (d) an elongated member having a first end and a second end;   (e) said first end of said elongated member removably hanging from said vertical support; and   (f) said second end of said elongated member being fixedly attached to a container;   (g) said container having at least one region made of a water-permeable material; and   (h) said container having at least one reclosable opening;   
       whereby a solid or liquid disinfecting, cleansing, or deodorizing composition may be periodically placed within said container for gradual application over time to said quantity of water. 
     
     
         2 . The toilet cleanser dispensing device of  claim 1  wherein said container is primarily made of a rigid or semi-rigid material; has an approximately oblong shape with a top face, bottom face, front face, back face, left face, and right face; has one face rotatably affixed to an adjacent face along one edge; and features a latch or clasp mechanism affixed to the edge opposing the rotatable edge whereby said container may be regularly opened and reclosed. 
     
     
         3 . The toilet cleanser dispensing device of  claim 2  wherein said container has at least one face shaped so as to feature a substantial-sized water-permeable hole, said hole being covered by a water-permeable netting material. 
     
     
         4 . The toilet cleanser dispensing device of  claim 1  wherein said vertical support is a hook, and said first end of said elongated member features a hole whereby said elongated member may be engaged to said vertical support. 
     
     
         5 . The toilet cleanser dispensing device of  claim 4  further comprising a cover member, said cover member being slidably affixed to said elongated member at a point distal to the center in the direction of said first end of said elongated member, whereby said cover member may be slid over said hole and said vertical support penetrating said whole thereby releasably locking said elongated member to said vertical support. 
     
     
         6 . The toilet cleanser dispensing device of  claim 1  wherein said elongated member is made of a rigid or semi-rigid plastic material. 
     
     
         7 . The toilet cleanser dispensing device of  claim 1  wherein:
 (a) said container is primarily made of a rigid or semi-rigid material; has an approximately oblong shape with a top face, bottom face, front face, back face, left face, and right face; has one face rotatably affixed to an adjacent face along one edge; and features a latch or clasp mechanism affixed to the edge opposing the rotatable edge whereby said container may be regularly opened and reclosed; 
 (b) said container has at least one face shaped so as to feature a substantial-sized water-permeable hole, said hole being covered by a water-permeable netting material; 
 (c) said vertical support is a hook, and said first end of said elongated member features a hole whereby said elongated member may be engaged to said vertical support; 
 (d) said toilet cleanser dispensing device further comprises a cover member, said cover member being slidably affixed to said elongated member at a point distal to the center in the direction of said first end of said elongated member, whereby said cover member may be slid over said hole and said vertical support penetrating said whole thereby releasably locking said elongated member to said vertical support; and 
 (e) said elongated member is made of a rigid or semi-rigid plastic material.
