No. 15/342,543, ted “Urinal Anti Splash Device,” fled Nov. 3, 2016, the entireties of each of Which are hereby ineorporated by reference FIELD OF THE INVENTION 10002] The present invention relates generally to urinal accessories, and, more particularly, relates to urinal anti splash deviee for placement within urinal. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 10003] A urinal, often installed for efficieney when com pared w a general purpose toilet, is a sanitary plumbing fixture commonly located in male restrooms. The use of & ‘inal, in comparison to a general purpose tile, is ofte more convenient fora user due to the absence of additional ‘doors and locks, AS an added convenience, urinals do not roguire a user 10 tum up a seat prior to use, which is both ‘convenient and generally more sanitary than the toile, Morcover, urinals occupy’less space and consume less water per flush, of possibly no water at all, han toilet which Fexjires flushing. 004) Devices designed w be placed within urinals are Well-known, For example, urinals found in public restrooms ‘often have aplastic mesh guard to prevent large debris fom ‘etering the drain. Unfortunately, such plastic mesh guards {ilo reduce or prevent the splashing of urine onto the user Infect, such plastic mesh guards may actually inenease the risk of the wer being splashed by the urine ws the urine Ficochets from the plastic mesh guard. Moreover, these plastic mesh guards do not preveot the splashing of urine that is directed towards the back wall ofthe ueinal 10005] Other known devices designed to be placed within urinals, often referred to a8 wrinal sercens or occasionally as sina Screens, ae sized and shaped to cover either the urinf's back wall or the drain. Such wrinal screens do not allow the user the option of eovering bah the back wall and the dean to prevent the urine from splashing onto the user from a maximum surface azea ofthe urinal, Moreover, some urinal sereens are made of rigid material that may fail t0 ‘conform to the various sizes and shapes of urinals 10006] Additional Known devices designed for placement Within @ urinal often include protrusions that are densely ‘compacted together, preventing a urine stream from lowing ina vertical direction toward the urinal seen. In this vein, suel devices rely on the protrusions to break up the urine stream, eaving urine deposited onthe protrusions, resulting Jn an unpleasant odor and the need for increased cleaning frequency of the device. Morcover, many urinal screens include urinal cakes or deodorizers which require costly and frequent replacement {0007} A particular problem with urinal design with respect to the design of mats or seeens to prevent splashing jin urinals isthe variety of shapes in which urinals config- ured. For example, some urinals have rounded basins, while ‘thers have a nartowser, more pointed basin, Accordingly. t0 ‘optimize the ant-splash aspect of a urinal sereen, it must fit Sep. 26, 2019 properly inthe basin. Asa reul, there area similar variety ff urinal screcns provided for variously. shaped urinal basins. However, this necessitates differen molding tools to manufacture the different urinal screen shapes, it requires stocking the different urinal seeen devices, and so on [0008] Therefore, a need exists to overcome the problems With the prior art a discussed shove, SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [0009] In accordance with some embodiments of the iventive disclosure, there is provide wrinal sercen adapt- able to a plurality of urinal configurations that includes a ‘ain body having a plurality of protrsions extending away {rom the main body ‘on atop side ofthe urinal seen.

The term “substantially Perpendicular” is defined herein as being disposed at an approximate 90 orientation (+/=15-20") with respect to the first portion 168. The base 106 may be transite from the first positon to the seoond position when coupled to the ant-splash body 104 or altematively, when separated from the antisplash body 104. {0071} With reference again to FIG. 1, the substantially perpendicular orientation ofthe base 106 enables the user 10 bend the urinal ant-splash device 100 in accordance with the dimensions ofthe urinal. Inthe same vein, this embod ‘ment provides the rina antisplash device 100 that covers the urnal’s back wall 114 and lower portion 124, thereby reducing or preventing urine from splashing on the user when ether or both the back wall 114 and the Tower portion 124 are struc by a stream of rine, Asan added advantage, the urinal anti-splash device 100 may be made from single mold, effectively reducing the costs associated with making the urinal anti-spash device 100 in comparison to other ‘existing urinal secessores that may require the manfactar- ing of separate components. In other embodiments, the anti-splash device 10, the anti-splash body 104 and the base 106, may be manufactured as separate components 10072] | With reference now to FIG. 3, second plurality of protrusions 300 can be seen extending outwardly from the base 106, The second plurality of protrisions 300 are ‘configured to extend in the dieection substantially perpen: ‘dicular from the fst portion 108 of the antisplash body 104, This configuration advantageously prevents urine from splashing onfo the user when siiking the base 106, Similar 10 the protrusions 18 described above, in use, sch as when 2 urine stream strikes the protrusions 300, the urine may be broken apart by the protrusions 300, Advantageously, the protrusions 300 define a plurality of protrsion voids 302 ‘hich permit the urine t elfectively flow in the downward izection toward the urinal drain. Ia order to ellectively allow the urine to flo into the urinal drain the hase 106 is depicted as defining « plurality of aperties 34 which ‘define urine flow path ffom the base 106 to the urinal drain. The protrusion voids 302 may also give space for the protrusions 300 1 bend and deflect when stuck by the urine. 10073] With reference now to PIG. 4 inorder to prevent urine from bouncing off of the urinal drain screen in 2 ‘izection toward the user, the base 106 is sized and shaped tw cover atleast a portion ofthe surface area ofa urinal dain screen. In one embodiment, the portion may be at least 30% ‘of the surface area of the urinal drain screen. In other ‘embodiments, the base 196 may cover less than the 30% of the surface area of the urinal drain screen. In one non- Jimiting embodiment the base 106 includes a diameter 400 that is approximately 5.0-7.0 inches in length. In others nboiments, the diameter 400 may be outside ofthis ange Sep. 26, 2019 [0074] FIG. 4 depicts the shape of the base 106 as being a circula-like shape, ic. different than the shape of the anti-splash body 104, The term “eirculetike” is defied herein as having atleast wo mound edges, The circularlke shape is conducive for covering the urinal drain which is commonly acircular shape. In other embodiments, the shape of the base 106 and the shape of the ant-plash body 104 may be the same, eg., rectangular, circular, square, round, ‘val, or another shape conducive fr fiting within the urinal. [0075] With reference nov to FIG. 6, an elevational side View of the urinal anti-splash device 100 is shown. More specifically, the fst portion 108 is depicted having an angled repion 500 wo facilitate water andor urine flow along the front surface 120 in a direction toward the urinal drain, Additionally the protrusions 118, 300 are depietod as having variable length which may also inerease the fcilitaton of ‘water andlor urine fow along the front surface 120 toward the urinal drain. In other embodiments, the protasions 118 andlor the protrusions 300 may have a uniform length. la fone embodiment, the protsions 118 include a protrusion Tength $02 that is between approximately 0.25 191.0 inch In other embodiments, the protrusion length 802 may be ‘outside of this ringe.

In other embodi- iments, the protnision Fength $04 may be outside of this rnnge, eg. between approximately 0.50 to 1.5 inches. [0076] The protrusions 118, 300 can be seen tapering downwardly ina direction toward the front surfave 120 of ‘theant-splash body 104 andthe base 106 to further facilitate the Water andor urine flow, Said another way, the pron sions 118, 300 are wider at the location of the base than at the top, Such configuration eauses the protrusions 118, 300 to break up the urine, while simultaneously allowing the urine to strike the front surlace 120 and travel ia the ‘downward direction toward the drain when the urinal ant splash device 100 is disposed in the vertial oriestation. The tapering configuration also decreases the complexity ass0- ciated with the manufacturing process of the device 100 because the protrsions 118, 300 may he relatively simply removed from the molding during the manufeeturing pro- ‘ess dueto the lack of edges. In another embodiments, either the protrusions 118 or the protrusions 300 may include the tapering configuration, In other embodiments, the protn- sions 118, 300 may be ofa uniform width and devoid ofthe tapering configuration.
