  • Patent number: 6910231
    Abstract: A toilet system which can be rinsed by a rinsing device. A pipe is connected to the toilet pan and leads to a sanitation pipe. Means are provided for transporting a suction material from the toilet pan into the pipe and into the sanitation pipe. Said means comprise two valves which are arranged in the pipe and a pressure chamber is disposed in-between. In order to suction the suction material from the toilet pan, low pressure is produced in the pressure chamber and used to transport said suctioned material. The pressure chamber is embodied as a piston cylinder and the piston is connected to a controllable drive in order to produce the high and low pressure. The inventive toilet system enables rinsing to occur using a very small amount of water and which can be adapted to different toilet pans.

  • Patent number: 4119299
    Abstract: A cable drum arrangement including a brake drum on a stationary support and a brake shoe on a carrier for the cable drum includes a flyweight and a compression spring radially interposed between flyweight and brake shoe which biases the brake shoe toward the brake drum by centrifugal force generated by the fly-weight while a cable unwinds from the drum. Unwinding of the last layer of cable from the cable drum releases a coupling connecting the drum to the carrier, and the resulting, limited, angular displacement of carrier and cable drum causes a cam to stress the spring and thereby to arrest the carrier. During unwinding, the spring reduces braking stress in the cable by damping radial movement of the flyweight during sudden increases in rotary speed.
