ABSTRACT:
Usual ventilating toilet devices require a relatively expensive vent system built into the seat unit or an attachment to the seat unit which has to be custom-designed for specific toilet bowl constructions. This means that they are not universal in attachment and are therefore relatively expensive. The present device is a horseshoe-shaped pad with air intake grooves on the underside and which can be engaged upon the bowl of the toilet between the bowl and the seat. A suction housing at the rear includes a sliding drawer at the front which can be adjusted to align with the rear curvature of the bowl and which can control the degree of suction to the bowl. The outlet on the side of the housing can readily be fitted upon either side depending upon installation requirements. The side not used is closed off with a sliding drawer or panel which can be used for access for cleaning, for insertion of deodorant material or the like, and to further control the degree of suction within the toilet bowl.
