Abstract: A flushing device for toilets includes a source for applying a fluid pressure to a blockage area and provides a seal in the blocked conduit to prevent backflow so that full pressure is applied to the blockage. The device includes a resilient, deformable and expandable element secured at the end of a tubular member which is inserted into a toilet conduit leading to the drain line. The tubular member has a coupling at its end opposite to the end carrying the expandable element to which a hose is connected in order to alternately supply pressurized water to the element or to the conduit. The expandable element is carried on a linear portion of the tubular member adjacent to the discharge orifice thereof and is expanded into a sealing condition with the conduit entrance leading into the drain line.

Abstract: A flushing device for toilets includes a source for applying a fluid pressure to a blockage area and provides a seal in the blocked conduit to prevent backflow so that full pressure is applied to the blockage. The device includes a resilient deformable and inflatable element secured at the end of a tubular handle which is inserted into a toilet conduit leading to the drain line. The tubular handle has a coupling at its end opposite to the end carrying the inflatable element to which a hose is connected in order to supply pressurized water to the element. The inflatable element is carried on a linear portion of the tubular handle adjacent to the discharge orifice thereof and is expanded by inflation into a sealing condition with the conduit entrance leading into the drain line. The exterior surface of the inflatable element is provided with spaced-apart ridges and grooves that are deformable to provide a positive sealing relationship with the entrance of the conduit so as to completely seal the entrance.
