Ventilation device

Abstract

A ventilation system for a restroom includes a mounting device to fluidly connect an inside of a toilet bowl to ventilation tubing. The ventilation tubing may fluidly connect to an area outside of the restroom, typically to the outdoors. A fan, such as a conventional ceiling mounted fan, may be used to transport gas from inside the toilet bowl to outside of the restroom.

1 . A ventilation system comprising:
 a toilet bowl mount adapted to fluidly connect an inside of a toilet bowl with an exhaust tubing; and   a fan urging gas to flow from the inside of the toilet bowl through the exhaust tubing.   
     
     
         2 . The ventilation system of  claim 1 , wherein the toilet bowl mount attaches to the toilet bowl between the toilet bowl and a toilet seat. 
     
     
         3 . The ventilation system of  claim 1 , further comprising an exhaust outlet for moving gas from the fan to outdoors. 
     
     
         4 . The ventilation system of  claim 1 , wherein the exhaust tubing is telescoping exhaust tubing. 
     
     
         5 . The ventilation system of  claim 1 , wherein the fan is a ceiling mounted exhaust fan. 
     
     
         6 . The ventilation system of  claim 5 , wherein the exhaust tubing enters through an opening in an exhaust grate of the ceiling mounted exhaust fan. 
     
     
         7 . The ventilation system of  claim 1 , further comprising a clear cover on the toilet mount. 
     
     
         8 . The ventilation system of  claim 1 , further comprising a mesh intake port fitting on a gas intake side of the toilet mount. 
     
     
         9 . A ventilation system comprising:
 a toilet bowl mount adapted to fluidly connect an inside of a toilet bowl with an exhaust tubing, the toilet bowl mount adapted to attach between the toilet bowl and a toilet seat;   a fan urging gas to flow from the inside of the toilet bowl through the exhaust tubing; and   an exhaust outlet for moving gas from the fan to outdoors.   
     
     
         10 . The ventilation system of  claim 9 , wherein the exhaust tubing enters through an opening in an exhaust grate of the ceiling mounted exhaust fan.
