Abstract
In one aspect of the present invention, a system for the transportation of liquid and solid waste incorporated into a floor of a building has a generally horizontal pipe with a first and second end. A motor is disposed at the first end and an auger is disposed in and along at least a portion of a length of the pipe and is in communication with the motor. The auger is adapted to the transport of liquid and solid waste along the at least a portion of the length of the pipe.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . A toilet, comprising:
a bowl and a fluid pathway connected to a sewer system and an auger disposed within the fluid pathway; wherein the auger is adapted to suck waste out of the bowl.
2 . The toilet of claim 1 , wherein the fluid pathway is a siphon.
3 . The toilet of claim 2 , wherein the auger is disposed within a U-shaped portion of the siphon.
4 . The toilet of claim 2 , wherein the auger is disposed between a U-shaped portion of the siphon and the bowl.
5 . The toilet of claim 2 , wherein the auger is disposed between a U-shaped portion of the siphon and the sewer system.
6 . The toilet of claim 1 , wherein the auger is adapted to be driven by a motor.
7 . The toilet of claim 6 , wherein the motor is disposed outside of the toilet.
8 . The toilet of claim 1 , wherein the auger is activated by a motion sensor, a handle or a button.
9 . The toilet of claim 1 , wherein a digestion chemical is injected in the fluid pathway or the bowl when the auger is activated.
10 . The toilet of claim 1 , wherein the auger is adapted to breakup the waste as it sucks it out of the bowl.
11 . A human waste system, comprising:
a toilet and a sewer system connected by a fluid pathway; the sewer system comprises a pipe incorporated in the floor upon which the toilet is positioned; the pipe comprises an auger adapted to suck waste out of a bowl of the toilet.
12 . The system of claim 11 , wherein a digestion chemical is injected into the pipe or the bowl when the auger is activated.
13 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the fluid pathway is a siphon.
14 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the auger is adapted to breakup the waste as it sucks it out of the bowl.
15 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the auger is activated by a motion sensor, a handle or a button.
16 . A method for disposing of human waste, comprising the step of:
sucking the waste out of a bowl of a toilet by activating an electrically controlled auger disposed in a fluid pathway connecting the bowl to a sewer system.
17 . The method of claim 16 , wherein the method further comprises the step of injecting a digestion chemical into the bowl or sewer system when the auger is activated.
18 . The method of claim 16 , wherein the auger is activated by pressing a button, pushing a handle, or activating a motion sensor.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
