Abstract

A toilet odor removal system as described, wherein an extraction device with a motorized fan suctions malodors from a toilet stool through an intake device placed under a toilet seat and expels such odors through an outlet source (exterior wall or exhaust vent). The extraction device is connected to the intake device and the outlet source by means of flexible conduits. The intake device is fastened between a toilet seat and a toilet bowl with the existing toilet seat fasteners. The intake device is exteriorly designed as to be inconspicuous, and interiorly designed to allow for self-drainage to prevent malfunctions in the system due to moisture or water. The extraction device is interiorly designed with opposing funnel-shaped chambers to help its interior fan suction and expel malodors. The motorized fan can be activated and deactivated automatically by means of a sensor, or manually by means of an On/Off switch

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A toilet odor removal system comprising of:
 an odor intake device with a sensor,   an intake conduit,   a motorized extraction device powered by battery or power source,   an outlet conduit that can then be connected to   an exhaust vent or to a pipe through an exterior wall.   
     
     
         2 . A toilet odor removal system, as described in  claim 1 , wherein said odor intake device has two cavities for it to be securely fastened between an existing toilet seat and toilet bowl with the existing toilet seat bolts.
 The intake device is exteriorly shaped as to follow the curve of toilet bowls.   The intake device is down-sloped interiorly to allow self-draining.   The intake device has an opening in the front to allow odors to go in through the opening and out into an intake conduit.   
     
     
         3 . A toilet odor removal system, where the intake device as described in  claim 2 , is connected to an intake conduit. 
     
     
         4 . A toilet odor removal system, as described in  claim 3 , wherein the intake conduit is a flexible pipe that allows odors to go in through its connection point with the intake device and channels the odors out into an extraction device. 
     
     
         5 . A toilet odor removal system, as described in  claim 4 , wherein the extraction device includes a housing member that is connected to the intake conduit at one end and the outlet conduit at the opposite end. 
     
     
         6 . A toilet odor removal system, as described in  claim 5 , wherein the housing has two opposing funnel-shaped chambers on the interior divided by a motorized extraction fan. 
     
     
         7 . A toilet odor removal system, as described in  claim 6 , wherein the extraction fan has a motor that is powered by battery or a wall outlet power source. 
     
     
         8 . A toilet odor removal system, as described in  claim 5 , wherein the housing has a “Manual/Auto” switch and an “On/Off” switch. 
     
     
         9 . A toilet odor removal system, as described in  claim 8 , wherein the “Manual/Auto” switch will activate the motorized extraction fan manually or automatically.
 When the switch is on automatic mode a sensor located on the intake device will activate and deactivate the extraction fan. 
 When the switch is on manual mode, the “On/Off” switch will activate and deactivate the extraction fan. 
 
     
     
         10 . A toilet odor removal system, as described in  claim 8 , wherein the “On/Off” switch can override the sensor located on the intake device when the “Manual/Auto” switch is on automatic mode. 
     
     
         11 . A toilet odor removal system, as described in  claim 5 , wherein the housing as a battery chamber and a power inlet to power the motorized extraction fan. 
     
     
         12 . A toilet odor removal system as described in  claim 5 , wherein the extraction device housing is connected to an outlet conduit. 
     
     
         13 . A toilet odor removal system, as described in  claim 12 , wherein the outlet conduit is a flexible pipe that is connected to the extraction device at one end of the conduit and at the other end is connected to an outlet source.
 The outlet conduit can be connected to a rigid pipe that goes through an exterior wall or it can be connected to a vent pipe inside a wall.   
     
     
         14 . A toilet odor removal system, for the extraction of noxious odors from a toilet, that includes an intake device that is fastened between an existing toilet seat and a toilet bowl with the toilet seat's bolts, an intake conduit that is connected to the intake device at one end and to an extraction device at the other end, an extraction device with two opposing funnel-shaped chambers on the inside divided by a motorized extraction fan, and an outlet conduit that is connected to the extraction device at one end and outlet source through an exterior wall or an in-wall vent pipe. 
     
     
         15 . A toilet odor removal system at described in  claim 14 , wherein the noxious odors in a toilet bowl will extracted by means of a motorized fan inside an extraction device through the intake device located between a toilet seat and a toilet bowl, then through the intake conduit that is connected to the intake device, through the intake funnel inside the extraction device that is connected to the inlet conduit. The motorized fan then expels the noxious odors through the outtake funnel inside the extraction device, then through the outlet conduit that is connected to the extraction device, and finally through an outlet source through a rigid pipe that penetrates an exterior wall or through an in-wall vent pipe.
