Simple Mobile Toilet for Construction Sites
Simple mobile toilets are widely used at construction sites, and their production and application are diverse and flexible.
I. Production Method of Simple Mobile Toilets
One simple production method involves using water storage tanks and pallets. First, use tools to fix universal wheels at each of the four corners at the bottom of the pallet to make it mobile. Then, place water storage tanks retrieved from garbage stations onto the pallet. Use an angle grinder to cut along the marked lines on the top of the water storage tanks to remove the tops and create open-top tanks. Invert another open-top water storage tank and stack it on top of the first tank. Use self-tapping screws to fix the outer frames of the two water storage tanks together and cut out a rectangular opening to form a doorway. Drill a hole in the floor inside the water storage tank, insert an elbow, and connect it to a water pipe for sealing. Install a toilet and secure it in place. Fix water pipes on the wall with clamps and install a faucet. Connect a water pipe to the pipe cap, drill a hole, and install a stainless steel basin as a hand-washing basin. Connect the water inlet pipe to the toilet tank, connect the shower hose, install the shower bracket and toilet seat, install a spray-type showerhead made of water pipes, and finally, make a toilet door using wooden boards and hinges and install a door handle.
II. Composition and Characteristics of Mobile Toilets
Mobile toilets generally consist of a fecal sewage storage tank (or fecal sewage treatment device), flooring, sanitary ware, walls, washing facilities, water tanks, roofs, and mobile devices. They have many advantages. Their mobility allows them to be flexibly adjusted according to the construction progress and personnel distribution at construction sites. Their combinability makes it convenient to increase or decrease the number of toilet units according to actual needs. Their ease of transportation reduces construction costs and time.
III. Classification of Mobile Toilets
Mobile toilets can be classified by structural form into single-structure mobile toilets and composite-structure mobile toilets. By mobility method, they can be divided into hoisting and handling mobile toilets, powered and towed mobile toilets. By sewage treatment method, they can be divided into water-flush and waterless suction mobile toilets, circulating water-flush mobile toilets, and dry-packing mobile toilets. Different types of mobile toilets are suitable for different construction site environments and needs. For example, in water-scarce areas, dry-packing mobile toilets can be chosen to reduce water consumption.
