Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2006072794A2] A toilet assembly (1) comprises a bowl (2), a seat assembly (3) and a cistern (4) having a flush mechanism and an actuator (10) for actuating said flush mechanism. The seat assembly (3) is hingedly mounted to the bowl (2) for pivotal movement between a lowered position in which the seat assembly (3) extends across the bowl (2) and a raised position in which the seat assembly (3) is upstanding from the bowl (2), and the actuator (10) is located so as to be concealed behind the seat assembly (3) when it is in its raised position such that flushing of the toilet (2) is prevented with said seat assembly (3) raised. Furthermore, the seat assembly 3 comprises a seat member (5) and a lid member (6), the seat member (5) being engageable with a rim (7) of the toilet bowl (2) to provide a seat upon which a user can sit, and the lid member (6) being engageable with the seat member (5) so as to overlie it. Additionally, the seat and lid members (5, 6) each have a seal provided on their underside that forms a substantially hermetic seal with the underlying bowl rim (7) and seat member (5) respectively.
