Patent

CA 2663616

Disclosed are "two piece" toilets (14, 18) where a toilet tank outlet valve links the tank water with a bowl, A nut (30) and gasket (32) structure are provided to provide an essentially ball and socket type joint (30, 34, 46, 48) between the tank (14) and bowl (18) to permit correction for out of plumb conditions without significantly compromising seal integrity. The gasket (32) has an outward lower curvature (46) and is supported from the inside by the nut (30). Preferably the lower end of the nut is cut away or curved such that in some configurations the gasket can flex inwardly, while being otherwise supported by the nut.

La présente invention concerne des toilettes "en deux parties" dans lesquelles un robinet de sortie de réservoir de toilettes relie le réservoir d'eau à une cuvette. Une structure à écrou et à garniture d'étanchéité permet d'obtenir sensiblement un joint à rotule entre le réservoir et la cuvette, ce qui permet de corriger un faux aplomb sans compromettre de façon essentielle l'intégrité de l'étanchéité. La garniture d'étanchéité présente une courbure inférieure vers l'extérieur et est soutenue depuis l'intérieur par l'écrou. L'extrémité inférieure de l'écrou est de préférence découpée ou incurvée de manière que, dans certaines configurations, la garniture d'étanchéité peut se courber vers l'intérieur tout en étant soutenue par l'écrou.
