FOR TOILETS”

TECHNICAL FIELD

[001] The present disclosure relates to jet spraying devices used in toilets. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to a jet spraying device with temperature controlled air blower for use in toilets.

BACKGROUND

[002] Unless otherwise indicated herein, the materials described in this section are not prior art to the claims in this application and are not admitted to be prior art by inclusion in this section.

[003] Generally, most toilets are equipped with toilet paper holder containing tissue papers to remove wetness from the private parts after performing a natural activity. Toilet papers also help to remove wetness from the toilet seat. No one would want to sit on a toilet hinged seat which is moist and watery. Further, no one would like to get out of toilet with wetness on the anal area and buttocks and it would be very pleasant to maintain dryness post cleaning with water. To avoid the above-mentioned situations everyone looks for a toilet paper instead, often they find only paper holder without paper in it.

[004] According to an independent private paper-based survey done by AppleMed systems & Research, it is very clear that more than 90% of restaurants and public places in Hyderabad, India and other parts in India do not have tissue paper along with the toilet. A wet toilet seat is a haven for several disease causing microbes that penetrate the human. Even if tissue paper can to an extent resolve the removal of wetness post urination/defecation. However, once the toilet paper gets wet microbes can enter the skin. There many hitech futuristic toilets coming with lots of high end technology and remote controls to wash the anal areas also but they fail to dry the specific or targeted areas when there is no paper available. It also fails to clean the hinged seat when it is moist or watery This problem compounds in the Indian scenario as the Indian community very often encounter messy toilet seats in local and public places be it trains or restaurants and no paper available.. Currently, there are no effective solutions that can dry the anal/genital areas, toilet seat post water rinse once urination/defecation is completed.

[005] In the light of the aforementioned discussion, there exists a need for a certain system with novel methodologies that would overcome the above-mentioned disadvantages.

SUMMARY

[006] The following presents a simplified summary of the disclosure in order to provide a basic understanding of the reader. This summary is not an extensive overview of the disclosure and it does not identify key/critical elements of the invention or delineate the scope of the invention. Its sole purpose is to present some concepts disclosed herein in a simplified form as a prelude to the more detailed description that is presented later.

[007] An objective of the present disclosure is directed towards devising a dual outlet system in the jet sprayer currently ejects water to include air thereby effectively drying the genital areas / toilet seat.

[008] An objective of the present disclosure is directed towards a jet sprayer device with temperature controlled air blower to dry the genital areas/toilet seat.

[009] An objective of the present disclosure is directed towards providing a low cost alternative to prevent wetness in toilet seats when no tissue papers are available.

[0010] Another objective of the present disclosure is to maintain sanitation hygiene and provide an environmental friendly alternative to tissue paper usage.

[0011] Another objective of the present disclosure is to enable the toilet seat to be free of infections by virtue of the ultraviolet source that provides UV rays thus making the toilet seat substantially infection free. [0012] Another objective of the present disclosure is to provide a portable jet sprayer device with temperature controlled air blower that can be retrofitted to any pre-existing toilet. The toilet may be an Indian toilet or a western toilet.

[0013] Another objective of the present disclosure is to provide a portable jet sprayer device with a temperature controlled air blower that may be used to dry accidental spill of water on a user’s clothes.
