Ventilated urinal

Abstract

A ventilated wall mounted urinal having a ventilation orifices integral to the sidewall of said urinal. Said orifices connected to at least one ventilation channel attached to a ventilation duct. The ventilation duct attached to an exhaust duct within said wall in fluid communication with a ventilation duct. A ventilator attached to the exhaust duct produces a negative pressure that removes odors from the urinal.

1 . A ventilated urinal, having a rear surface wall mounting, top surface, water supply valve, trap and waste drain comprising:
 a generally vertical first surface;   a generally horizontal generally bowl shaped channel second surface adjacent to said first surface;   a circumferential sidewall projecting outwardly from and adjacent to said first and second surfaces, said sidewall having an outwardly facing surface, a generally normal interior surface and upper portion, opposing side portions and a bowl portion, said opposing side portion of said sidewall having and upper and lower portion, said sidewall bowl portion forming a containment area;   a plurality of water discharge ports integral to said upper sidewall portion of said sidewall generally adjacent to said first surface and in fluid communication with such water supply valve;   a plurality of ventilation orifices within said sidewall having a predetermined length and width, said ventilation orifices are positioned in said upper portion of said sidewall a predetermined spacing from said water discharge ports and in said upper portion of said sidewall;   at least one ventilating channel integral to such urinal is in fluid communication with said plurality of ventilation orifices and terminates in an exhaust port;   at least one ventilating duct, of a predetermined material, external to such urinal having a proximal and a distal end and in fluid communication with said proximal end of said ventilating duct attached to said exhaust port;   an exhaust duct having a bottom end and a top end and is generally aligned along within such wall upon which such urinal is mounted, said bottom end is attached to and is in fluid communication with said at least one ventilating duct;   a ventilating means having a means producing a negative pressure and is attached to and is in fluid communication with said top end of said exhaust duct, said ventilating means removing odors from such urinal.   
   
   
       2 . A ventilated urinal according to  claim 1  wherein said exhaust port is disposed within said top of such urinal. 
   
   
       3 . A ventilated urinal according to  claim 1  wherein said exhaust port is disposed within said rear surface of such urinal. 
   
   
       4 . A ventilated urinal according to  claim 1  wherein said proximal end of said ventilation duct is attached to said ventilation port and said distal end terminates at the surface of such wall upon which such urinal is mounted and said bottom portion of said exhaust duct is attached to said distal end of said ventilation duct. 
   
   
       5 . A ventilated urinal according to  claim 1  wherein the said distal end of said ventilation duct terminates within such wall upon which such urinal is mounted. 
   
   
       6 . A system of a plurality of ventilated urinals according to  claim 1  further having an elongated collection vent within such wall upon which such urinal is mounted, generally horizontal, with a plurality of openings extending from said collection vent each attached to said ventilation ducts and an opening attached to said exhaust duct. 
   
   
       7 . A ventilated urinal according to  claim 1  wherein said ventilating means is a turbine exhaust fan. 
   
   
       8 . A ventilated urinal according to  claim 1  wherein said ventilating means is an electrical exhaust fan. 
   
   
       9 . A ventilated urinal according to  claim 1  wherein said predetermined material of said ventilating duct is of the group of plastic or metal. 
   
   
       10 . A ventilating urinal according to  claim 9  wherein said predetermined material of said ventilating duct is a plastic of a group that is rigid or flexible.
