Abstract:

A toilet blockage remover (17) is provided in three selected versions. The first version (21) includes a toilet bowl cover (19) attached to a soft pad (23). The second version (43) includes a pump (47) attached to a soft pad (45) wherein the soft pad (45) has a cutout (49) forming a thru-hole (51). The third version (61) includes a toilet bowl cover (19), a soft pad (23) attached to the toilet bowl cover (19), and the pump (47) attached to the toilet bowl cover (19). The toilet bowl cover (19) and the soft pad (23) of the third version (61) have cutouts (49) forming a thru-hole (51) of the toilet bowl cover (19) and a thru-hole (51) of the soft pad (23). The invention utilizes a substantially air tight seal of air tightness (35) between the pad (23, 45) and the mouth of the toilet opening (33) when the pad (23, 45) is placed upon the mouth of the toilet opening (33). Thereupon the water is flushed to increase the air pressure in the toilet bowl (41) which pushes the blockage away. The addition of the pump (47) enhances the efficiency of the invention by proving a means to give a shock or an impulse of the air, wherein the air within the toilet bowl (41) transmits the shock to the water surface within the toilet bowl (41), and the water transmits the shock to the blockage and the blockage is pushed away removing the clog.
