Abstract: A diaper retaining enclosure within which a soiled diaper may be retained while being rinsed. includes a generally planar base having parallel edges to which a pair of suitable hinges are secured. A pair of doors comprising generally planar flaps are secured to the hinges and are thus pivotable between an open position exposing the base and a closed “tented” position. The tented position is achieved by having the edges of the doors meet some distance away from the base in the closed position and thereby form a channel extending downwardly above the base and behind the doors. A clip is secured to the upper edge of the base and is configured to be spring-biased to a closed position. The resulting channel formed by the doors in the tented position is open at its top and bottom.

Abstract: A device for assisting in the cleaning of reusable cloth diapers comprises a molded plastic frame which rests on an interior perimeter of a toilet bowl. The frame comprises a universal design such that it fits on both round and oval bowls. A plurality of adjustable spring clips holds and supports the soiled diaper in a taut and stretched configuration. With the device and diaper in place, the diaper may be rinsed off. When finished, the toilet is flushed and the device is removed, folded, and stored in a supplied storage case.

Abstract: An improved cleaning device which can be used as a personal hygienic unit, as a unit for cleaning a diaper area of an infant, and rinsing soiled diapers, or as a cleaning unit for clearing clogs in a toilet or drain pipe. There is included a flexible hose which is connected to a water supply and to an inlet of a flow control valve. An outlet of the flow control valve is connected to a rigid hollow handle for delivery of water through the handle to a spray head rotationally secured to the handle so as to deliver water upwardly from the spray head openings when the device is in use. A secondary unit is independently connected to a water supply for delivery of water to a hand-held spray nozzle to allow cleaning of a diaper area of an infant and rinsing soiled diapers. The improved device incorporates an improved mounting assembly for facilitating the placement of the device on a toilet, and other features to provide efficient operation of the improved device.

The device body C includes: a suction motor 21 for establishing a vacuum to suck the excrements and the sewage; a water supply pump 5 for supplying the washing water; and a sequencer 12 for controlling the suction motor 21 and the water supply pump 5. The sequencer 12 includes intermittent drive means S4 to S8 or S24 to S29 for controlling the drive of the water supply pump 5 by setting time parameters according to the sense signals of the feces sensor 109 and the urine sensor 114.

Abstract: A cleaning device which can be used as a personal hygienic unit, as a unit for cleaning a diaper area of an infant, and rinsing soiled diapers, or as a cleaning unit for clearing clogs in a toilet or drain pipe. There is included a flexible hose which is connected to a water supply and to an inlet of a flow control valve. An outlet of the flow control valve is connected to a rigid hollow handle for delivery of water through the handle to a sprayhead secured at an acute angle in relation to a longitudinal axis of the handle so as to deliver water upwardly from the spray head openings when the device is in use. A secondary unit is independently connected to a water supply for delivery of water to a hand-held spray nozzle to allow cleaning of a diaper area of an infant and rinsing soiled diapers. As an alternative to the sprayhead, there is provided a flexible, bendable pipe having a free open end, through which a stream of water can be delivered to an immediate proximity of a clogged toilet or drain.

Abstract: A mop wringer is adapted for mounting on the rim of a basin or toilet bowl. The wringer has a pressure plate with a lower edge. The wringer also has a mounting frame with a lower receptacle for receiving the lower edge of the pressure plate. The frame also has an upper receptacle adapted to fit onto the rim of the basin or bowl. The pressure plate is mounted on the mounting frame for compressing a mop between the pressure plate and the mounting frame. The mounting frame has a lug projecting on the mounting frame away from the pressure plate. This lug is above the lower receptacle and below the upper receptacle when the wringer is mounted on the basin or bowl.

Abstract: An apparatus for substantially removing waste from a soiled diaper is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a waste removing portion having a conical body. The body includes a first end aperture and a second end aperture, said first end aperture being wider than said second end aperture.
