  • Patent number: 5659903
    Abstract: A flushing device which permits flushing with two different amounts of flushing fluid. The bottom valve member of the device comprises two float rods which are each connected to a float. The float rod for the small flushing amount is fixedly connected to the bottom valve member, whereas the float rod for the large flushing amount is connected to the bottom valve member via a lost-motion coupling to make it possible for the bottom valve member to move upwards and downwards relative to this float road. In the resting position, the float rod for flushing with the large amount of flushing fluid is locked by means of a lock, such that the float connected to this float rod does not affect the lowering of the bottom valve member towards its valve seat during flushing. The flushing with the small amount of flushing fluid will thus be determined completely by the movements of the other float rod and its associated float.

A restroom according to the invention includes a swingable wall carrying a bidet seat which is swingable around a horizontal axis and may perform two further functions. One of them is to allow the disabled person, while sitting on the seat, to move to and from a sanitary apparatus, such as a wash basin. The second function is to serve as a support when swung upwards to a vertical position.

  • Patent number: 4131546
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method and apparatus for removing separable impurities from a liquid. In the method, the liquid is caused to pass radially through a cylindrical roll of web-like, wet-strength fiber material at the same time as the fiber web which forms the roll is continuously drawn out at low speed from the roll at that circumferential side where the liquid is caused to enter. As a result, the roll constantly offers a relatively clean surface to the penetrating liquid. The apparatus comprises a chamber for the roll, a conduit for conducting the liquid to the one circumferential side of the roll, a discharge for conveying off liquid from the vessel at the other side of the roll, rollers for guided withdrawal of the fiber web, and a receptacle for collecting the web withdrawn from the roll.
