  • Patent number: 11952766
    Abstract: A semi-hidden system for the water flushing handle of toilets that forces the user to lower the lid or lid and seat before activating the flushing of the cistern. The flushing handle is embedded in the front wall of the cistern in such a way that a portion of the handle is covered by the lid of the toilet when the lid is raised, forcing users to close the lid in order to be able to flush, and thus substantially reducing the emission of infectious and polluting bioaerosols. The system aims to contribute to preventive medicine and to improve health worldwide by avoiding contagion of diseases. The toilet lid and seat, which combine with the semi-hidden flushing system, complement the innovative system with fast soft-closing hinges. This invention can be used in public restrooms, homes, hospitals, hotels, schools, and other environments where sanitation is a high priority.

  • Patent number: 11808022
    Abstract: A Cover Box toilet accessory that contributes to preventive medicine, improves global health, reduces the spread of diseases, and fights the environmental pollution caused by the emission of infectious and polluting bioaerosols during toilet flushing. The Cover Box is designed to fit over the Water Flushing Button of a conventional toilet and includes a Fixed Base and a Sliding Top with transparent or translucent parts. The Fixed Base includes Fitting Guides and a tension spring. By obstructing the direct access to the Water Flushing Button, this Cover Box forces the user to close the toilet lid before flushing, since the movement of the Sliding Top to reveal the button also indirectly closes the toilet lid, reducing the emission of bioaerosols that can spread diseases and cause environmental pollution. The system has a high global impact and can be used in various settings, having a significant impact on public health.

  • Patent number: 11771274
    Abstract: A toilet lid and seat closer and flushing system that aims to prevent the spread of diseases and reduce environmental pollution caused by the emission of infectious and polluting bioaerosols during toilet flushing. The system includes a main actuator with dual closing and flushing buttons, a secondary actuator with a strike knob for closing the lid and seat, and a mechanical timer for delaying the water flushing. The system also includes a sealing rubber on the toilet lid and seat to provide a hermetic and antimicrobial barrier. This invention substantially reduces the emission of polluting bioaerosols, contributing to preventive medicine and improving the health of the global population. The system can be incorporated into new toilets or installed externally as an independent kit, making it adaptable to hundreds of millions of existing toilets worldwide.
