Homemade Mobile Toilet and Bathroom
A homemade mobile toilet and bathroom can be realized by reasonably utilizing water storage containers, pallets, and mobile components, combined with sewage treatment methods. The specific plan needs to select the structural form and mobile method according to the needs. The following explains in four aspects: material selection, structural design, mobile method, and sewage treatment.
Material selection is fundamental. The water storage container is the core component, and water storage buckets or tanks can be selected. Water storage buckets are relatively small in size and suitable for making simple and portable toilets. For example, a young man used a water storage bucket to make a portable toilet, and its capacity can meet basic flushing needs and is easy to carry. Water storage tanks have a larger capacity. If a mobile toilet with more complete functions and a longer service life needs to be made, they can be given priority. For example, the solar-powered mobile toilet made by Xiaoshuai using a water storage bucket does not explicitly mention the capacity advantage, but the addition of solar components implies considerations for long-term use and energy supply, and water storage tanks can better adapt to such needs. Pallets are used to carry water storage containers and other facilities and need to have sufficient strength. Wooden or metal materials can be selected. Wooden pallets have lower costs and are easy to process, but their durability is relatively poor. Metal pallets have high strength and good durability, but their costs are higher and they are heavier.
The structural design needs to be reasonable. If simplicity and convenience are pursued, a single-unit structure can be adopted, integrating water storage containers, toilets, and other facilities into a relatively independent unit. For example, when making a portable toilet using a water storage tank and a pallet, install a toilet on the pallet and connect the water storage container for flushing. If more complex functions are required, such as adding a sink and storage space, a composite structure can be adopted to reasonably divide and combine different functional areas.
The mobile method needs to be appropriate. For small and lightweight mobile toilets, lifting and handling types can be selected. For example, a simple toilet made only with a water storage bucket can be carried manually. If the volume is large and the weight is heavy, powered and towed types are more suitable. For example, fix universal wheels at the four corners of the bottom of the towing plate, and realize movement through vehicle towing or equipped with a small power unit, which is convenient for transfer between different sites.
Sewage treatment cannot be ignored. The water-flushing type needs to be connected to a water storage container for flushing, and the sewage needs to be cleaned regularly. The waterless suction type collects feces through special devices, does not require a large amount of water, but needs to be suctioned and treated regularly. The circulating water-flushing type realizes the recycling of water resources through filtration and purification devices, which is more environmentally friendly and energy-saving, but the production cost and technical requirements are relatively high.
