Abstract: A toilet bowl plunger for use with a new narrow throat 1.6 gallon toilet that can be used equally well with older toilets. The head portion of the plunger is a pleated bellows consisting of two sections, a conically tapering section and a constant average diameter section. The conically tapering section has larger diameter at the rear end of the head and tapers down to a narrower diameter in a direction away from the rear end of the head. The bellows then continues into the constant diameter section in a direction away from the rear end and towards the front end of the head. The constant diameter section resembles an elephant-like trunk or nose. When inserted into the toilet bowl, the constant diameter section of the bellows head penetrates into the throat, while a forward end of the tapered section seats over the outer perimeter of the mouth of the throat. The constant diameter section or nose of the head curves to follow the path of the throat.

Abstract: A toilet clearing device that produces a stream of pressurized water to break up and/or dislodge obstructions in the outlet duct of a toilet. The toilet clearing device is a conduit comprised of an inlet, a flexible section, a rigid handle section, a dislodging extension, and an outlet in fluid flow communication, such that water may be conveyed from the water source, though the device and into the outlet duct of the toilet. The dislodging extension of the device is preferably configured to be inserted into the outlet duct of the toilet. In use, the inlet of the device is attached to a water source, and the user grasps the rigid handle section of the device to direct the dislodging extension of the device toward the obstruction within the outlet duct of the toilet. The pressurized water exiting the device breaks up and/or dislodges the obstruction and pushes it out through the outlet duct of the toilet.
