Abstract (en)

A screen (12) for use with a toilet, and in particular for a squat-type toilet, in support. In one embodiment, the screen (12) is removably attached to the fixture, and in another embodiment, the screen is an integral part of the design of the fixture. The support structures include the screen (12) itself, and may also include other accessories, such as an armrest (22) or one or more handles. The screen preferably covers the front portion of the fixture, but may, for example, also cover the front half of the fixture. In an alternative embodiment, the screen completely surrounds the fixture, and includes a door providing a convenient means of entry into the screened area.
