Abstract (en)
This invention concerns a sanitary article, in particular a toilet with a form that permits a physiologically correct position for defecation, and is so practical that it can be used even by elderly or disabled persons. This toilet, which is a type that ensures that angle ±, formed by the femur (3) with the lumbosacral segment (4) of the rachis, is less than 90°, is characterized by the fact that it provides a means of supporting said user's body (1), so that no burden is placed on the lower limbs, allowing the user to assume a position where the knees are higher than the pelvis, so that the knee joint is approximately at the height of the diaphragm.
