URINAL SCREEN HAVING INDICIA FORMED BY VARYING HEIGHT OF ANTI-SPLASH BRISTLES
A urinal screen include a main body that has a plurality opening and bristles or protrusions that act to prevent splash of a stream of fluid incident on the urinal screen. The bristles have a regular pattern in height and spacing. There is also an indicia region in which the bristles have a different height, spacing, and arrangement pattern compared to those of the main body that is visually distinct from the main body region. The bristles of the indicia region can be arranged in a particular shape, such as a logo or alphanumeric characters.
1 . A urinal screen, comprising:
a main body;
a main region of the main body having a plurality of openings through the main body, and a plurality of bristles extending from the main body outward, and having a first height and a first spacing between the bristles on the main body; and
an indicia region of the main body having a plurality of bristles having a second height that is substantially different than the first height, and wherein the bristles of the indicia region are spaced closer together than the bristles of the main region such that the indicia region is visually distinct from the main region.
2 . The urinal screen of claim 1 , wherein the bristles of the main region include bristles of the third height that alternate with bristles of the first height, and wherein the second height is also substantially different than the third height.
3 . The urinal screen of claim 1 , wherein the indicia region, in at least one direction is not wider than a spacing across adjacent openings in the main region.
4 . The urinal screen of claim 1 , wherein the second height is shorter than the first height.
5 . The urinal screen of claim 1 , wherein the indica region further include openings that have a different and visually distinctive shape from the plurality of openings through the main region.
6 . The urinal screen of claim 1 , wherein the indicia region comprises a plurality of concentric circular regions.
7 . The urinal screen of claim 1 , wherein the main body incudes a first portion that is configured to rest against a back wall of a urinal, and a second portion that is configured to rest against a bottom of the urinal, when the urinal screen in positioned in the urinal.
8 . The urinal screen of claim 1 , wherein the main body comprises at one extended linear opening.
9 . A urinal screen, comprising:
a body;
the body including a main portion comprised of a webbing having of a plurality of main interconnecting links of material around a plurality of main openings, and a plurality of main protrusions that extend from the main interconnecting links, wherein the plurality of main interconnecting links, plurality of main openings, and plurality of main protrusions are arranged in a regular pattern including a regular height of the plurality of main protrusions, a regular spacing between the main protrusions of the plurality of main protrusions, a regular patter of location of main protrusions of the plurality of main protrusion on the main interconnecting links of the plurality of main interconnecting links, a regular shape and arrangement of the main interconnecting links of the plurality of main interconnecting links, and a regular shape and arrangement of the main openings of the plurality of main openings; and
the body further including an indica region having at least one of:
a plurality of indicia protrusions;
a plurality of indicia interconnecting links; or
a plurality of indica openings;
wherein a pattern of at least one of the plurality of indicia protrusions, the plurality of indica interconnecting links, or the plurality of indicia openings are varied relative to the plurality of main protrusion, plurality of main interconnecting links, or plurality of main openings in a visually distinct manner.
