A closet collar may provide a connection between a toilet and a drain pipe. Closet collars can be installed improperly making it difficult to install a toilet without a leaky seal.
Many aspects of the present disclosure can be better understood with reference to the following drawings. The components in the drawings are not necessarily to scale, emphasis instead being placed upon clearly illustrating the principles of the disclosure. Moreover, in the drawings, like reference numerals designate corresponding parts throughout the several views.

Positioned above the closet collar adaptation assembly 200 is the bottom of a toilet 213 that includes the horn 216. The horn 216 of the toilet 213 mates with the closet collar adaptation assembly 200 to form a seal between the horn 216 and the closet collar 100. The seal between the horn 216 and the closet collar adaptation assembly 200 facilitates the passage of sewage matter from the toilet 213 through the closet collar 100 and down the drain pipe as can be appreciated.
The flexible seal ring 203 may be made of a material that facilitates the flexible seal ring 203 flexing and at least partially collapsing with pressure, thereby forming a seal between the underside of the closet collar adapter 113 and the sealing surface of the closet collar 100. In alternative embodiments, a wax ring may be used instead of or in addition to the flexible seal ring 203. Such a flexible seal ring 203 may be made of, for example, neoprene, foam rubber, polyvinylchloride (PVC) rubber, thermoplastic elastomer (TPE), thermoplastic rubber (TPR), styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR), ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) rubber, or any other material that facilitates the flexible seal ring 203 at least partially collapsing and sealing against the respective surfaces. These materials may facilitate the flexible seal ring 203 being reusable, unlike a wax ring which typically is made for a single use. In this sense, when the toilet 213 and/or the closet collar adaptation assembly 200 is removed, the flexible seal ring 203 may return at least partially to the shape in which it was prior to the toilet 213 and/or the closet collar adaptation assembly 200 causing the flexible seal ring 203 to at least partially collapse. Additionally, the flexible seal ring 203 may comprise an antimicrobial material. For example, the flexible seal ring 203 may comprise an antimicrobial coating.
Additionally, the material selected for the flexible seal ring 203 may be chosen so that it may withstand the corrosive effects of the sewage gases and matter that flows from the toilet 213 into the drain through the closet collar 100 as can be appreciated. The closet collar adaptation assembly 200 is shown in

The adapter plate 503 may include one or more legs 506 that can be used to fasten the adapter plate 503 to the flooring 103 (
Protruding from the adapter plate 503 are bolts 509 that may be, for example, affixed directly to the adapter plate 503 according to various embodiments. The bolts 509 may insert into corresponding holes in the toilet 213 (

According to various embodiments, the closet collar adaptation assembly 600 may be advantageous in that there are fewer joints to seal to prevent sewage gases and other matter from escaping the joint between the toilet 213 (
In addition, a plug 609 may be provided that may be pushed into the hole presented by the sealing washer 119 to plug the hole over the closet collar 100. The plug 609 may prevent the escape of sewage gases when a toilet has not been installed. To this end, the plug 609 may be employed with any one of the embodiments of the various closet collar adaptation assemblies described herein.

Further, one or more of the components of the closet collar adaptation assembly 200, such as the closet collar adapter 113 and/or the sealing washer 119, may be constructed using an overmolding process. The use of thermoplastic rubber flexible PVC, or thermoplastic elastomer may facilitate construction of the closet collar adapter 113 using injection molding processes. Additionally, one or more of the components of the closet collar adaptation assembly 200, such as the closet collar adapter 113 and/or the sealing washer 119 may be integrally molded as a single part according to various embodiments.

One or more of the flexible rings 555 may be located between the bellow 550 and the flooring 103. The flexible rings 555 may comprise rubber, foam, or any other type of material. Additionally, the flexible rings 555 may be compressible and thereby facilitate the closet collar adaptation assembly 200 being compatible with closet collars 100 that are at various heights with respect to the flooring 103.

The first portion 759 of the collapsible portion 753 of the closet collar adapter 113 may have a wall thickness that is greater than the wall thickness of the second portion 763 and the third portion 766 of the collapsible portion 753. Additionally, the second edge 773 may be recessed inward with respect to the closet collar adapter 113. The base 756 may further include a first portion 776 and a second portion 779. The wall for the first portion 776 of the base 756 may be thinner than the wall for the second portion 779 of the base.

With reference to
The second portion 763 of the collapsible portion 753 may extend inward and downward by flexing about the second edge 773 and the first edge 769. As such, a vertical distance between the first edge 769 and the second edge 773 may decrease. Additionally, the first edge 769 may flex and facilitate the lip 750 and the first portion of the collapsible portion 753 displacing downward.
