A high efficiency toilet configuration includes a water tank. The tank includes a supply line, a mechanical valve controlling a flow of water from the line into the tank, and walls and a base. The tank includes a through-hole in the base channeling water out of the water tank and a tank outlet hole including a housing extending through the through-hole. The tank includes an outlet valve configured for selectively prohibiting water from flowing through the tank outlet hole and permitting water through the tank outlet hole during a flush event. The tank includes a water column vessel disposed around the outlet hole and configured for separating water in the water tank between water outside of the vessel and a channel of water contained over the outlet hole. The configuration includes a toilet base including a bowl and a plenum for channeling the water to the bowl.

A toilet configuration that is connectable to a sewer drainage pipe is provided. The toilet configuration includes a water storage tank, a ceramic toilet body including a toilet bowl, and a water supply plenum operable to receive water from the water storage tank and channel the water to the toilet bowl. The toilet configuration further includes a primary drain operable to fluidly connect the waste receiving basin and the sewer drainage pipe and at least one footrest formed unitarily with an outer surface of the ceramic toilet body. The footrest is operable to aid a user in elevating at least one knee while the user is seated upon the toilet configuration.

A two-piece bandage is useful for treating wound on a patient. The bandage includes a boundary portion including a bottom surface comprising adhesive for attaching the boundary portion to skin of a patient, an open window in the middle of the boundary portion permitting one to view a wound through the open window, and a top surface. The top surface includes a first portion of the top surface surrounding the open window including a flat surface and a second portion of the top surface including an uneven surface. The bandage further includes a plurality of replaceable wound covering portions, each replaceable wound covering portion comprising a padded section comprising a material to dress the wound.

A toilet includes a water storage tank, a bowl including a waste receiving basin that includes an upper rim and at least one toilet bowl aperture in a side wall of the waste receiving basin, a water supply plenum operable to receive water from the water tank and channel the water to the bowl, a primary drain operable to connect the basin and a sewer pipe, and a secondary drain fluidly operable to connect the toilet bowl aperture to the sewer pipe and operable to drain the water from the bowl. The secondary drain is separate from the primary drain and includes an auxiliary aperture fluidly connecting the secondary drain to the water supply plenum and operable to drain the water from the plenum. The toilet bowl aperture and the auxiliary aperture are operable to permit the water to bypass the primary drain when the primary drain is clogged.

A bore cleaning device is configured to clean a bore of a firearm. The device includes a cylindrically shaped cleaning pad including a solid, non-hollow core. The device further includes a propellant providing a force to push the cleaning pad down the bore of the firearm and a payload located in a bore-forward position of the cleaning pad. The device can optionally include a lower charge cap situated between the propellant and the cleaning pad.

A toilet includes a bowl including a supply water plenum providing the water to the basin, a primary drain fluidly connecting and terminating at a drain passage and a secondary drain fluidly connecting the supply water plenum to the sewer drainage pipe. The secondary drain is separate from the primary drain and includes at least one secondary drain inlet that is disposed within the supply water plenum, a second drain channel, and a second drain outlet. The inlet permits rising waste water to flow from the supply water plenum into the second drain channel and out of the second drain outlet to the sewer drainage pipe separately from the waste water of the primary drain. The supply water plenum also includes a diverting wall located upstream of the secondary drain inlet configured to divert water flowing from upstream from flowing into the inlet.

A toilet configuration includes a toilet fixture, a detachable primary drain, and a detachable secondary drain. The primary and secondary drains can be assembled together or formed unitarily. The fixture includes a toilet bowl, a primary drain interface at a bottom of the bowl configured to permit liquid to flow from the toilet bowl into a detachable primary drain, and a secondary drain hole. The detachable primary drain fluidly is connected to the primary drain interface and is configured to be fluidly connected to a sewer pipe to discharge the liquid directly into the sewer pipe. A detachable secondary drain fluidly is connected to the secondary drain hole and is configured to be fluidly connected to the sewer pipe to discharge backed up fluid from the toilet fixture directly into the sewer pipe.

A toilet fixture includes a bowl, a primary drain fluidly connects said basin and said sewer drainage pipe, and a supply water plenum. The fixture further includes a secondary drain fluidly connecting said supply water plenum to said sewer drainage pipe. The secondary drain is separate from said primary drain and includes inlet means that are disposed within said supply water plenum and include at least one unshielded secondary drain hole in a lower half of the plenum. The secondary drain further includes a second drain channel. The secondary drain further includes a second drain outlet that is in fluid communication with said second drain channel, whereby said inlet means permits rising waste water to flow from said supply water plenum into said second drain channel and out of said second drain outlet to said sewer drainage pipe separately from the primary drain.

Anti-overflow toilet and method

A toilet fixture includes a bowl, a primary drain fluidly connected to the bowl, a supply water plenum providing water to the bowl to flush the fixture, and a secondary drain inlet located to the plenum. The secondary drain inlet includes a secondary drain hole permitting water to flow from the plenum into the secondary drain inlet. The secondary drain inlet is fluidly connected to a drain permitting water to exit the fixture and water flowing through the secondary drain inlet can bypass a clog in the primary drain.

The present invention provides for an improved toilet for flushing bodily waste materials. This toilet includes a secondary drain that communicates liquid that is backing up during a potential overflow situation into a conventional drainage sewer without any modification to that sewer.
