Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

The present invention relates generally to a new and useful improvement clog saving device for preventing the clogging of main sewer or plumbing lines to obviate a potential backup, preferably in a toilet system.

It is well known that one of the major plumbing problem is main sewer line clogging and back-ups in toilet systems in residential and commercial environments. This major plumbing problem occurs more often in multiple dwelling units, such as apartments, townhouses, condominiums, and commercial buildings where toilet systems are generally mounted back-to-back and connected to the same main sewer line. In these types of units occupants will throw and flush down items, such as disposable pampers or cloth diapers, packaging, clothing type articles, small bottles and containers, and other types of items in toilet systems. Note that such items can cause a major sewer line blockage that can impact and shutdown multiple toilet systems in the multiple dwelling units described above causing an inconvenience to many occupants. This type of sewer line blockage will require labor intensive and costly repairs.

2. Description of the Related Art

It is well known in the art to utilize clog saving type devices to prevent clogs in main sewer lines or waste fluid outlets that causes toilet system back-ups. Many of these clog saving type devices are referenced in the following prior art.

The other at least a pair of separate mounting securing holes or openings includes a U-shaped slot that opens outwardly at the peripheral edge of the universal clog saver plate member that aligns and mate with at least a pair of securing holes or openings in the wall mounting flange plate.

A further object of the present invention provides at least a pair of the plurality of screw members for securing the wall mounting flange plate to the building infrastructure, such as a wall structure by extending the plurality of screw members through the pair of U-shaped slots of the annular and universal clog saver plate member to secure the annular and universal clog saver plate member to the top surface of the wall mounting flange plate and through the plurality of securing holes or openings within the wall mounting flange plate.

It is another object of the present invention to provide a pair of locking threaded bolt members including a head portion disposed thereon defining a locking flange member. The pair of locking threaded bolt members passes easily up through the first diameter portion of the elongated adjustable slots in the floor mounting flange plate, and upward through the first diameter portion of the elongated adjustable slots in the annular and universal clog saver plate member and through an optional lock washer. Once the pair of locking threaded bolt members extend through the annular and universal clog saver plate member, the pair of locking threaded bolt members are able to slide easily into and along the elongated adjustable slots of the second diameter portions of the floor mounting flange and the annular and universal clog saver plate member as the pair of locking flange members move along and underneath the second diameter portions of the elongated adjustable slots of the floor mounting flange. The optional lock washer locks each one of the locking threaded bolt members in place after the locking flange members are positioned underneath each one of the elongated adjustable slots of the second diameter portions of the floor mounting flange plate and the lock washer is positioned above and in engagement with the floor mounting flange plate. Note that the lock washer can be omitted, if desired.

Another object of the present invention provides a pair of securing holes in the bottom base portion of the toilet bowl that receives and aligns the pair of locking threaded bolt members there through and having a portion thereof that extend to a selected distance there above. Note that the pair of locking threaded bolt members are easily received and aligned with the pair of securing holes in the bottom base portion of the toilet bowl as they are slidably moved from the first diameter portions to the second diameter portions of the pair of the elongated adjustable slots of the universal clog saver flange member and the pair of the elongated adjustable slots in the floor mounting flange plate as the locking flange members move along and underneath the second diameter portions of the pair of the elongated slots of the floor mounting flange plate.

Furthermore, once the pair of locking threaded bolt members extended portion that is positioned above the securing holes or openings of the bottom base portion of the toilet bowl receives a retaining washer and a threaded nut for threading the threaded nut along each one of the pair of locking threaded bolt members extended portion until they firmly seat against each one of the retaining washers for tightly securing the toilet bowl to the floor mounting flange. Once the threaded nut has been fully tightened the wax ring is sealingly compressed between the bottom base portion of the toilet bowl and the annular and universal clog saver plate member to fully seal the drain outlet passageway of the toilet bowl that is fluidly connected to the floor drain opening or sewer line or passageway via the central openings in the wax ring, the clog saver plate member, and the floor mounting flange. After the threaded nut has been fully tightened, a decorative cap member is placed over the threaded nut for esthetic purposes.

Moreover, a plurality of anchor bolts or studs are disposed within or behind a wall structure for receiving a fastening nut member for firmly securing the anchor bolts or studs within the wall structure. The plurality of anchor bolts or studs extends through a plurality of anchor bolt or studs securing holes or openings disposed within the wall structure with a portion thereof that extend a selected distance there through. This extended portion is received through a plurality securing openings or holes within a rear or back side of a wall mounted toilet bowl for receiving a retaining washer and a threaded nut. After the threaded nut is threaded along each one of the plurality of anchor bolts or studs extended portion until they firmly seat against each one of the retaining washers for tightly securing the toilet bowl to the wall mounting flange plate. Once the threaded nut has been fully tightened the wax ring is sealingly compressed between the rear or back side of the toilet bowl and the annular universal clog saver plate member to fully seal the drain outlet passageway of the toilet bowl that is fluidly connected to the wall drain opening or sewer line or passage via the central openings in the wax ring, the clog saver plate member, and the wall mounting flange plate. After the nut has been fully tightened, a decorative cap member is placed over the threaded nut for esthetic purposes.

Note that when the annular and universal clog saver plate member is used with a wall-mounted toilet bowl, it is imperative that the pair of U-shaped slots of the annular and universal clog saver plate member mounting points must be installed on a level plane, and oriented so that they are located at 3 o'clock and 9 'clock positions relative to and aligned with a pair of the plurality of securing holes in the wall mounting flange plate. This orientation places the highest most clog saver fin at the 12 o'clock position and the two remaining clog saver fins are located at 8 o'clock and 4 o'clock positions defining the correct and non-clogging installation. However, if the annular and universal clog saver plate member is oriented 180 degrees and the lowest clog saver fin is positioned at the 6 o'clock position there will be recurring clogging due to all solids passing over the lowest positioned clog saver fin, which would be considered the incorrect installation position.

An additional object of the present invention teaches that the annular and universal clog saver plate member and the plurality of clog saver fins can be made of varied materials selected from the group consisting of plastics and metals. Also, the clog saver fins can be of varied sizes and shapes, if desired. Further, the plurality of clog saver fins can be positioned at varied angles within the central opening thereof, if desired. Moreover, the central opening of the annular and universal clog saver plate member can be of varied sizes. Note that packaging items, large feminine hygiene items, clothing items, disposable pampers, cloth diapers, and other sizable items would be caught and collected by the plurality of clog saver fins of the annular and universal clog saver plate member. These items are able to be removed easily without having to remove the toilet bowl by isolating the clogged items between the plurality of clog saver fins and the toilet bowl. Optionally, the central opening of the annular and universal clog saver plate member can be of selected varied sizes without including clog saver fins that would allow fluid, tissue, toilet liners, waste material, small feminine hygiene items, dissolvable items, and other small items to pass there through, while preventing any sewer line or passageway blockage, if desired.

Yet another object of the present invention is to provide a simple closet auger (not shown) for removing the above large feminine hygiene items, disposable pampers, cloth diapers, clothing items, packaging items, and other sizable items that have been caught by the clog saver fins and the top of the annular and universal clog saver plate member, which isolates the clog adjacent to or at the toilet bowl without ever reaching the sewer line or passageway. Therefore, a toilet technician can easily remove the above collected items by using the simple closet auger (not shown).

An additional object of the present invention provides the clog saver fins to be secured to the annular inner wall surface of the central opening of the clog saver plate member by a bonding process selected at least from the group consisting of chemical bonding, welding, soldering, cementing, and gluing.

Additional aspects, objectives, features and advantages of the present invention will become better understood with regard to the following description and the appended claims of the preferred embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings.
