Toilet protective overlay device assembly

Abstract

A toilet protective overlay device assembly, comprising a body for fitting over a toilet bowl rim, sized to the approximate dimensions of the outer edge of the rim to overlap the rim, the body having a top side and a bottom side. The body includes plurality of openings to receive a clamp having a non-mar surface in contact with the rim, with a plurality of clamps positioned individually through the openings to secure the body to the toilet rim, and clamps able to move within the openings to adjust the fit of the body on the rim. A flexible hose is connected so as to provide a conduit through an opening in the body, with the conduit passing from the top of the body past the bottom of the body, with a portion of the flexible hose inserted into a toilet fixture trap.

I claim: 
     
         1 . A toilet protective overlay device assembly, comprising:
 a body for fitting over a toilet bowl rim, sized to the approximate dimensions of the outer edge of the rim to overlap the rim, the body having a top side and a bottom side;   said body including a plurality of clamp openings to receive a clamp having a non-mar surface in contact with the rim, with a plurality of clamps positioned individually through the clamp openings to secure the body to the toilet rim, with the clamps able to move within the clamp openings to adjust the fit of the body on the rim; and   a flexible hose connected so as to provide a conduit through a first opening in the body, with the conduit passing from the top of the body past the bottom of the body, with a portion of the flexible hose inserted into a toilet fixture trap.   
     
     
         2 . The toilet protective overlay device assembly of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a rigid section of pipe attached to the top side of the body proximate to the first opening, with a transition hose interposed between the pipe and the flexible hose so as to attach to the rigid section of pipe; and   the transition hose passing through the first opening from the top of the body to the bottom of the body, with the flexible hose connected to the transition hose;   wherein the assembled rigid section of pipe, transition hose, and flexible hose create the conduit running from the top side into the toilet trap.   
     
     
         3 . The toilet protective overlay device assembly of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a snake cable inserted through the conduit and moved beyond the toilet trap into the sewage line.   
     
     
         4 . The toilet protective overlay device assembly of  claim 1 , wherein the body comprises approximately ¾″ thick poly or phenolic board of rigid construction roughly in the shape of a toilet bowl. 
     
     
         5 . The toilet protective overlay device assembly of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a second opening in the body positioned to view an entrance to the toilet fixture trap.   
     
     
         6 . The toilet protective overlay device assembly of  claim 2 , wherein the transition hose includes an approximate 45° bend. 
     
     
         7 . The toilet protective overlay device assembly of  claim 6 , wherein the transition hose and the section of rigid pipe comprise PVC pipe. 
     
     
         8 . The toilet protective overlay device assembly of  claim 2 , further comprising:
 a connection between the rigid section of pipe and the flexible hose comprises stainless steel clamps.   
     
     
         9 . The toilet protective overlay device assembly of  claim 2 , further comprising:
 a connection between the rigid section of pipe and the flexible hose comprises a threaded connection.   
     
     
         10 . The toilet protective overlay device assembly of  claim 1 , wherein the clamp openings comprise a slot and said individual clamps can slide along the slot to adjust the fit of the body to the toilet rim.
