Michael Hancock - Rockford IL, US
Assignee:
EVAC INTERNATIONAL OY
International Classification:
E03D011/00
US Classification:
004/431000
Abstract:
A modular vacuum toilet, and a method of servicing such a toilet, are disclosed. The toilet is used with a vacuum toilet system having a sewer line placeable under partial vacuum pressure and a source of rinse fluid. The modular vacuum toilet comprises a frame and a removable bowl engaging and supported be the frame, the bowl defining an outlet and having a rinse fluid dispenser associated therewith. The modular vacuum toilet also has a valve set module. The valve set module includes a discharge valve having an inlet in fluid communication with the bowl outlet, an outlet in fluid communication with the sewer line, and a movable discharge valve member disposed between the discharge valve inlet and outlet. A rinse fluid valve is also incorporated into the valve set module and has an inlet in fluid communication with the source of rinse fluid, an outlet in fluid communication with the rinse fluid dispenser, and a movable rinse fluid valve member disposed between the rinse fluid valve inlet and outlet. The valve set module further includes a flush control unit having a circuit board operably connected to the discharge valve and rinse fluid valve for controlling actuation of the discharge valve member and rinse fluid valve member.

US Patent:
20020120982, Sep 5, 2002
Filed:
Feb 1, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/061673
Inventors:
Jay Stradinger - Roscoe IL, US
William Anderson - Rockford IL, US
Mark Pondelick - Roscoe IL, US
Douglas Wallace - Roscoe IL, US
Michael Hancock - Rockford IL, US
Arthur McGowan - Thornton IL, US
Ian Tinkler - Rockford IL, US
Assignee:
EVAC INTERNATIONAL OY
International Classification:
E03D011/00
US Classification:
004/431000
Abstract:
A discharge valve is disclosed for use in a vacuum toilet system having a waste receptacle defining an outlet and a sewer line placeable under partial vacuum. The discharge valve comprises a housing defining an inlet and an outlet, and a rotatable discharge valve member disposed in the housing for selectively establishing fluid communication between the inlet and the outlet. A periphery of the disk valve member being formed with a series of gear teeth. An actuator is provided having a rotatable spur gear adapted to engage the periphery of the discharge valve member.

Rinse Fluid Valve For A Vacuum Toilet

View page
US Patent:
20030177569, Sep 25, 2003
Filed:
Jan 29, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/059881
Inventors:
William Anderson - Rockford IL, US
Douglas Wallace - Roscoe IL, US
Jay Stradinger - Roscoe IL, US
Mark Pondelick - Rockton IL, US
Michael Hancock - Rockford IL, US
Arthur McGowan - Thornton CO, US
Ian Tinkler - Rockford IL, US
International Classification:
E03D011/00
US Classification:
004/431000
Abstract:
A rinse fluid valve for use in a vacuum toilet system is disclosed. The vacuum toilet system includes a waste receptacle with a rinse fluid dispenser associated therewith and a source of rinse fluid. The rinse fluid valve has a housing with an inlet in fluid communication with the rinse fluid source and an outlet in fluid communication with the rinse fluid dispenser. A flow path extends from the inlet to the outlet. A moveable rinse fluid valve member is disposed in the flow path and movable between open and closed positions. A fuse valve is also disposed in the flow path and has a normally open position to allow fluid flow therethrough. The fuse valve is actuatable to a closed position after a desired volume of fluid has passed therethrough, thereby to cease rinse fluid flow through the flow path.

Apparatus For Supplying Pressurized Rinse Water To A Toilet

View page
US Patent:
60853662, Jul 11, 2000
Filed:
Jul 2, 1999
Appl. No.:
9/347164
Inventors:
Mark Pondelick - Roscoe IL
Arthur J. McGowan - Roscoe IL
Assignee:
Evac International OY - Helsinki
International Classification:
E03D 1100
US Classification:
4431
Abstract:
Apparatus for pressurizing rinse fluid to a toilet is provided comprising a reservoir for receiving gravity fed rinse fluid. The reservoir is connected to a source of pressurized air through an air inlet valve mechanically coupled to a controller. A rinse fluid discharge valve is connected to an outlet of the reservoir and is operatively connected to the controller. When triggered, the controller allows pressurized air to enter the reservoir, thereby pressurizing the rinse fluid contained therein. The controller then opens the rinse fluid discharge valve to deliver the pressurized rinse fluid to the toilet. The controller and rinse fluid discharge valves are preferably pneumatically operable so that a separate power source is not required for the pressurized rinse fluid apparatus.

Washbasin Drain Assembly
