Drain Opening Method

View page
US Patent:
40968715, Jun 27, 1978
Filed:
Apr 13, 1976
Appl. No.:
5/676570
Inventors:
Eftichios Van Vlahakis - Northbrook IL
International Classification:
B08B 704
C23G 102
US Classification:
134 40
Abstract:
Discovery of a critical solution temperature vs acid strength profile leads to an aqueous acid-type drain opener composition consisting essentially of a solution of between about 80. 8% and 84. 5% by weight sulfuric acid. The composition may also contain about 0. 1-0. 5% by weight corrosion inhibitors, and about 15. 0-19. 1% by weight of inert materials, including 10-19% water. The resulting drain opener composition is not only effective to dissolve typical drain-clogging materials, but very much safer to use than the conventional highly concentrated (about 93% by weight) sulfuric acid drain openers in terms of providing time-based safety factor against severe acid burns.

US Patent:
40965937, Jun 27, 1978
Filed:
Jul 15, 1976
Appl. No.:
5/705598
Inventors:
Eftichios Van Vlahakis - Northbrook IL
International Classification:
E03D 902
A61L 904
US Classification:
4231
Abstract:
Improved dispenser assembly for controlled release of bactericidal, detergent and aromatic agents upon flushing, which dispenser clips onto the upper edge of a toilet bowl. The assembly is specially adapted to bring a solid type deodorant/disinfectant cake into position along the side wall of the bowl but below the rim so that upon flushing, the flush water is directed to the cake in a turbulent action that releases limited amount of the cake. The dispenser disposes the cake above the bowl water line, and shields it from urine or splash so that it does not dissolve too rapidly.
