  • Publication number: 20060031979
    Abstract: The present invention provides device for cleaning air fouled by bathroom usage, and more particularly an air cleaning device having: a housing for holding air extraction mechanism, air filtration mechanism, mechanism for germicidal treatment of air, and air refreshing mechanism; a foul air containment ring mechanism; an extractor tube mechanism connecting containment ring to filtration mechanism. The containment ring mechanism confines air fouled by bathroom usage from escaping the bowl area and using with air breathe by user. The extractor mechanism forces the confined fouled air to the filtration mechanism through the extractor tube. Odor causing molecules along with bacterial and viral bodies are removed at the filtration mechanism. The extractor mechanism subsequently forces the filtered air through the refresher mechanism where fragrances are added to the air before the air is returned to the room's air mass.
