AI Technical Summary
Conventional toilet seats lack sufficient stability and slip resistance, necessitating reinforcement and specialized design features to prevent slipping and facilitate easy cleaning.
A toilet seat with an incline of approximately 15° to 20° from the front towards the mounting point, featuring a honeycomb structure for stability, a 2 cm thickness at the front and 12 cm at the back, a 8 cm wide rim at the front, and plastic tabs for slip prevention, along with special hinges for easy removal.
The design provides enhanced stability and slip resistance, ensuring the seat remains securely in place while allowing for easy cleaning and maintenance.
Abstract
Description
[0001] 1. The toilet seat with an incline is characterized by the fact that it requires reinforcement compared to conventional toilet seats.
[0002] 2. The toilet seat with an incline is characterized by the fact that a solid plastic casting would be very heavy. A honeycomb structure inside between the upper and lower surfaces (with the same incline) provides sufficient stability.
[0003] 3. The toilet seat with an incline is characterized by a thickness of 2 cm at the front and approximately 12 cm at the back (depending on the angle).
[0004] A rim at the front, 8cm wide (protruding into the bowl), prevents the seat from slipping.
[0005] Similarly, plastic tabs (two inside right and two inside left, each 3cm long, and a bead 8cm wide inside rear) prevent the seat from slipping.
[0006] 4. The toilet seat with an incline is characterized by the fact that that the special design requires special hinges (preferably click hinges or similar, so that the seat can be removed for cleaning the toilet).
Claims
[1] The toilet seat with an incline is characterized by , that it has a slope angle of approximately 15° to approximately 20° rising from front to back. [2] The toilet seat with an incline is characterized by , that as a consequence the thighs also assume this angle of inclination (slight shift of the body's center of gravity forwards). [3] The toilet seat with an incline is characterized by , that the slightly bent-over posture prevents the thighs from assuming a horizontal position, which makes standing up difficult. [4] The toilet seat with an incline is characterized by , that it reduces the distance between the thigh and the horizontal toilet seat by the same number of degrees, thus reducing the risk of abrupt sitting down (strain; cramp; bone fractures in osteoporosis; femoral neck fracture).
