Abstract (en)

[origin: WO8803789A1] A mobile toilet with a projecting, height-adjustable toilet seat arm (2). Its outer end, with a recess for (removable) toilet bowl inserts (3), extends into the middle of the bed. The floor of the toilet bowl (inserts) (3) is formed by a transport belt (11), which conveys faeces through the hollow part (10) of the toilet seat arm (2) into the waste compartment (4). The bed-ridden patient's comfort is increased by the toilet, which can be used in bed (5), being fitted with a flush, an odour absorbing device, a bidet and a hot air blower.
