  • Patent number: 5950250
    Abstract: A two flush modality toilet composed of a bowl, a tank connected with the bowl wherein the tank is connected to a water supply, a conventional flush modality for flushing solid waste from the bowl, and a urinal flush modality for flushing liquid only waste from the bowl, wherein the urinal flush modality includes: a bowl valve in the form of a pop-up stopper, pop-up seat and pivot ball assembly at the low point of the bowl; a bowl valve control for selecting between open and closed states of the bowl valve, a passageway for directing liquid waste from the bowl into the sanitary drain; and an auxiliary flush control for supplying a limited quantity of flush water from the tank into the bowl to provide restoration of the trap water in the bowl after a urinal flush modality liquid drainage of the bowl has occurred. A foot pedal selectively operates the bowl valve, wherein when in an open state all the liquid in the bowl is drained. Upon release of the foot pedal, the bowl valve is returned to the closed state.

  • Patent number: 5548850
    Abstract: A two flush modality toilet composed of a bowl, a tank connected with the bowl wherein the tank is connected to a water supply, a conventional flush modality for flushing solid waste from the bowl, and a urinal flush modality for flushing liquid only waste from the bowl, wherein the urinal flush modality includes: a bowl valve at the base of the bowl, a bowl valve control for selecting between open and closed states of the bowl valve, a conduit for directing liquid waste from the bowl into the sanitary drain, and an auxiliary flush control for supplying a limited quantity of flush water from the tank into the bowl to provide restoration of the trap water in the bowl after a urinal flush modality has occurred. A foot pedal selectively operates the bowl valve, wherein when in an open state all the liquid in the bowl is drained. Upon release of the foot pedal, the bowl valve is returned to the closed state. Flush water from the tank is then delivered to the bowl to restore the trap water.

  • Patent number: 5295481
    Abstract: A device providing performance of CPR without need to exert forces of such magnitude that the patient may be injured, and which further provides performance of defibrillation and ventilation. The CPR assist device according to the present invention is composed generally of an elongate column member, handles mounted normal to the column member, a suction cup member mounted at one end of the column member, and a defibrillation system so that the patient may be defibrillated in conjunction with CPR. According to the method of the present invention, an aid giver places the suction cup member of the CPR assist device on the chest of the patient, then grabs the handles and proceeds to alternately press on the chest and pull from the chest. The suction cup member causes the chest to compress and expand, thereby creating a churning action within the chest cavity that resuscitates the patient.
