The invention relates to the bidet nozzles with modular structure, which are intended for external use in the toilets.
More particularly, the invention relates to a bidet nozzle construct, which enables the need of personal cleaning to be met in the toilets with no bidet nozzle and enables the ambience to be scented by means of a scent module.
Today, the bidet nozzles that are adapted on the toilets are used in order to enable the personal cleaning once a user finishes using the toilet. However, there is no bidet nozzle in the toilets in the European countries and the external washbowl types referred to as bidet are used instead, in order to meet the personal cleaning need following the use of a toilet in the bathrooms or the toilet rooms.
The bidet nozzles, which are externally adapted on the toilets, have been developed according to the state of the art, in order to enable the users to wash themselves in the toilets that lack a bidet nozzle, instead of using a bidet. Said bidet nozzles have a nozzle, which is conventionally connected under the toilet seat lid and which sprays the clean water from the rear part of the toilet bowl by means of an on/off water valve positioned next to the toilet bowl, in order to enable the cleaning need to be satisfied. These bidet nozzles are intended only for enabling the need of personal cleaning to be satisfied and provide for this purpose the flow of clean water by being adapted on a toilet. However, the need has arisen to develop the external bidet nozzles in accordance with today's increased comfort demands and other needs.

The structural and characteristic features and all the advantages of the invention will be more clearly understood from the figures provided below and the detailed description written with reference to said figures. Accordingly, the evaluation should be made taking these figures and the detailed description into consideration.
In this detailed description, the preferred alternatives of the bidet nozzle construct (A) according to the invention will be described only to enable a better understanding of the subject matter, without leading to any limiting effect.
The bidet nozzle construct (A) according to the invention basically comprises a bidet nozzle (100) externally integrated on a toilet and a scent module (200) joined to the bidet nozzle (100).
The main body (101), which constitutes the basic structure of the bidet nozzle (100), is connected on the toilet under the toilet seat lid. The fixing ports (102), which protrude from the rear part of the main body (101), are formed accordingly. Said fixing ports (102) are seated on the housings on the toilet where the toilet seat lid is connected and enable the main body (101) to be fixed on the toilet. The pod channels (103), which enable the position of the main body (101) to be adjusted with respect to the housings where the toilet seat lid is connected, are present on the fixing ports (102). By means of said pod channels (103), the main body (101) is enabled to be fixed via a mounting adjustment performed on the housings where toilet seat lid is connected.
At least one water sprayer (104) extends from the bottom part of the main body (101) into the toilet bowl. Said water sprayer (104) sprays the clean water from the rear part of the toilet bowl towards the user in order to enable the user to clean off. In the front part of the water sprayer (104), a barrier (105) extends downward from the bottom of the main body (101). The barrier (105) prevents the water that emerges from the water sprayer (104) from flowing out of the toilet bowl.
A valve (106) is fixed to an end of the main body (101) in order to provide the on/off control over the water sprayer (104) and adjust the flow rate of the water flowing from the water sprayer (104). The water sprayer (104) is used by means of the valve (106), which is positioned next to the toilet bowl. A water channel, intended to provide the passage of water between the valve (106) and the water sprayer (104), is present inside the main body (101). Upon the valve (106) being opened, the flow of water is enabled from the water sprayer (104). A main body (201) is formed, which extends along the same y-axis as that of the cylindrical surface (1061) of said valve (106) and has design integrity.
In order to enable the inflow of water from the flush tank inlet of the toilet to the bidet nozzle (100), a water inlet (107) is formed preferably in the lower part of the valve (106), as shown in
As shown in
The module main body (201) has a tube housing (2011) preferably with a circular form. The tube housing (2011) is the part where the scent tube (203), which emits an essence into the ambience in order to scent said ambience, is positioned on the horizontal axis. The essence is stored inside the scent tube (203).
As shown in
The tube tip housing (2012) enables the spray tip (204) on the scent tube (203) to be placed into the tube housing (2011). The scent release outlet (2013) enables the release of the essence, which is sprayed from the spray tip (204), into the ambience.
In the scent module (200), a cover (202) capable of opening and closing in a hinged manner is fixed on the module main body (201). When the essence inside the scent tube (203) is used up, it is possible to replace the scent tube (203) by opening the cover (202).
In order to enable the essence to be sprayed from the spray tip (204) of the scent tube (203), a pressure head (2041) is present on the scent tube (203) and a scent hose (2042), which is connected to the pressure head (2041) and enables the essence to be delivered to the spray tip (204), is present inside the scent tube (203). The pressure head (2041) is positioned in the tube housing (2011), on the inner side wall of the module main body (201). The scent hose (2042) forms a structure that bends towards the internal wall surface of the scent tube (203).
When a force is applied on the scent tube (203), the rear end of which protrudes from the module main body (201) when positioned into the tube housing (2011), via the pressure surface (2031) under said scent tube (203), the pressure head (2041) abuts the inner side wall of the module main body (201) and is thus triggered and enables the essence, which is drawn from the scent tube (203) via the scent hose (2042), to be sprayed from the spray tip (204). As a result, the essence sprayed from the spray tip (204) is released into the ambience via the scent release outlet (2013) to thereby provide said ambience with a pleasant scent. On the other hand, a retaining surface (205) is formed, which enables a second force to be applied on the pressure head (2041) upon the application of a force on the pressure surface (2031). A second pressure is generated owing to the presence of said retaining surface (205).
A hose retainer (2032) is present inside the scent tube (203), on the side wall of said scent tube (203). Said hose retainer (2032) enables the scent hose (2042), which enables the delivery of the essence to the spray tip (204), to extend in a curved manner inside the scent tube (203) and enables the lower end of the scent hose (2042) to be guided towards the side wall of the scent tube (203). In this way, all of the essence inside the scent tube (203), which is positioned on the horizontal axis into the tube housing (2011) of the module main body (201), is enabled to be drawn from said scent tube (203).
The operating principle of the bidet nozzle construct (A) according to the invention is as follows:
After the use of the toilet is completed, the valve (106) is opened and the user is enabled to meet the personal cleaning need upon the spraying of the clean water from the water sprayer (104) according to the desired flow rate.
In order to eliminate the malodor developing in the ambience as a result of the use of the toilet, the pressure head (2041) abuts the inner side wall of the module main body (201) and is thus triggered, upon the application of a force on the pressure surface (2031) of the scent tube (203), and the essence drawn from the scent tube (203) by means of the scent hose (2042) is enabled to be sprayed from the spray tip (204). In this way, the ambience is provided with a pleasant scent by releasing the essence, which is sprayed from the spray tip (204), into said ambience via the scent release outlet (2013).
