More Information
Summary:A malodour counteracting device (1) comprises an outlet fitting (5) for securing in an outlet (2) from a male urinal (3). A carrier member (21) secured to the outlet fitting (5) carries a tubular guide (22) through which a spindle (23) is slidably carried. A tubular spacer (24) supports a support disc (18) which in turn carries a malodour counteracting disc (19) which is impregnated with a malodour counteracting compound for counteracting malodours emanating through the outlet (2) of the urinal (3). An upper shield (25) secured to the spindle (23) clamps the disc (19) onto the support (18). The upper shield (25) is raisable by sliding the spindle (23) through the tubular guide (22) for facilitating replacement of the disc (19) with a fresh disc. A lower shield (30) defines with a flange (8) of the outlet fitting (5) an annular gap (31) which retains cigarette butts and other debris in the urinal (3).
