Toilet Ventilation Assembly

Abstract

A toilet ventilation assembly for removing odors from a toilet bowl includes a pump that is mountable to a toilet bowl and an intake that is mountable between the toilet bowl and a toilet seat on the toilet bowl. The intake has an air passage is integrated therein and the intake is fluidly coupled to the pump. In this way the pump urges air inwardly through the air passage to suctionally remove odors from the toilet bowl. A motion sensor is coupled to the pump and the pump is turned on when the motion sensor senses motion. A filter housing is in fluid communication with the pump and a filter is removably positioned in the filter housing for removing odors from the air.

         4 . (canceled) 
     
     
         5 . The assembly according to  claim 1 , wherein:
 said assembly includes a control circuit being coupled to said pump, said control circuit being in electrical communication with said pump, said control circuit receiving a motion input, said control circuit turning on said pump when said control circuit receives said motion input;   said motion sensor is positioned on said forward wall of said pump wherein said motion sensor is configured to sense motion of a person approaching the toilet bowl, said motion sensor being electrically coupled to said control circuit, said control circuit receiving said motion input when said motion sensor senses motion; and   a power supply being removably positioned in said pump, said power supply being electrically coupled to said control circuit, said power supply comprising at least one battery.   
     
     
         6 . (canceled) 
     
     
         7 . The assembly according to  claim 3 , further comprising an intake pipe being fluidly coupled between said air passage in said intake and an inlet of said pump wherein said intake pipe is configured to transfer air between said intake and said pump. 
     
     
         8 . The assembly according to  claim 2 , further comprising an exhaust pipe being fluidly coupled between said exhaust in said pump and an input on said filter housing wherein said exhaust pipe is configured to transfer air between said pump and said filter housing. 
     
     
         9 . A toilet ventilation assembly for suctionally removing odors from a toilet, said assembly comprising:
 a pump being mountable to a toilet bowl, said pump having an inlet and an exhaust, said pump urging air inwardly through said inlet and outwardly through said exhaust when the pump is turned on, said pump having a forward wall, an upper wall and a rear wall, said forward wall being directed toward a front side of the toilet bowl;   an intake being mountable between the toilet bowl and a toilet seat on the toilet bowl, said intake being formed by an upper plate, a lower plate, and a medial plate positioned between said upper plate and said lower plate, said upper plate being continuous within a peripheral edges of said upper plate adjacent to a cutout in said medial plate, said lower plate being continuous within a perimeter edge of said lower plate adjacent to said cutout in said medial plate but for an air hole extending through said lower plate whereby said cutout in said medial plate defines an air passage being integrated into said intake wherein said intake is configured to be in fluid communication with an interior of the toilet bowl, said intake being fluidly coupled to said pump wherein said pump is configured to be in fluid communication with the interior of the toilet, bowl, said pump urging air inwardly through said air passage wherein said pump is configured to suctionally remove odors from the toilet bowl, said intake having a top side, a bottom side and a front side, said air passage extending through said front side, said bottom side having said air hole extending upwardly into said air passage, said intake having a pair of fastener apertures each extending through upper plate, said lower plate and said medial plate, said fastener apertures being spaced apart from each other a pre-determined distance thereby facilitating each of said fastener apertures to be aligned with a respective one of a pair of bolts on the toilet seat wherein said intake is configured to be fastened to the toilet bowl with the bolts in the toilet, seat whereby said upper plate, said lower plate, and said medial plate are secured together to form said intake said front side facing an interior of the toilet bowl;   a control circuit being coupled to said pump, said control circuit being in electrical communication with said pump, said control circuit receiving a motion input, said control circuit turning on said pump when said control circuit receives said motion input;   a motion sensor being coupled to said pump wherein said motion sensor is configured to detect motion proximate the toilet bowl, said motion sensor being positioned on said forward wall of said pump wherein said motion sensor is configured to sense motion of a person approaching the toilet bowl, said motion sensor being electrically coupled to said control circuit, said control circuit receiving said motion input when said motion sensor senses motion;   a power supply being removably positioned in said pump, said power supply being electrically coupled to said control circuit, said power supply comprising at least one battery;   a filter housing being in fluid communication with said pump wherein said filter housing is configured to receive air from said pump, said filter housing having a filter slot extending therein, said filter housing having an input and an exhaust;   an intake pipe being fluidly coupled between said air passage in said intake and said inlet of said pump wherein said intake pipe is configured to transfer air between said intake and said pump;   an exhaust pipe being fluidly coupled between said exhaust in said pump and input on said filter housing wherein said exhaust pipe is configured to transfer air between said pump and said filter housing; and   a filter being removably positioned in said filter housing, said filter being in fluid communication with each of said input of said filter housing and said exhaust in said filter housing wherein said filter is configured to remove odors from the air being urged therethrough, said filter being insertable into said filter slot in said filter housing.
