BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to a toilet seat and lid quick release hinge system. Although embodiments of the invention is suitable for a wide scope of applications, it is particularly suitable for enabling quick release of a toilet seat from a toilet bowl, for releasing a toilet seat without undoing mounting screw or bolts from the toilet bowl and for putting down the lid when the seat is put down from a raised position.
Discussion Of The Related Art [0002] A toilet seat generally requires more frequent replacement than a toilet bowl due to wear and tear, and a toilet seat can be replaced without replacing the entire toilet. A toilet seat also can be replaced to match any bathroom color scheme or motif.
[0003] In general, a toilet seat is affixed to a toilet bowl by placing mounting screws or bolts through a flange portion of the toilet bowl and by fastening screw nuts from the bottom surface of the toilet bowl to the mounting screws.
Conventionally, to replace the toilet seat, each of the screws or mounting bolts needs to be unfastened from the washers and nuts. However, as mounting screws and bolts rust or corrode especially in a moist environment, the screws or the mounting bolts can be hard to loosen or unfasten. Furthermore, the nuts can recess due to the passage of time, making the nuts practically inaccessible and toilet seat replacement difficult.
Conventionally, to replace the toilet seat, each of the screws or mounting bolts needs to be unfastened from the washers and nuts.

Furthermore, the nuts can recess due to the passage of time, making the nuts practically inaccessible and toilet seat replacement difficult.
[0004] U.S. Patent No. 6,070,295 to Hulsebus discloses a "Quick Release Seat Hinge With Swivel" formed of a "mounting post" fixed to the toilet bowl, a "hinge post" connected to the toilet seat, and a "latch member" that engages the hinge and mounting posts. The latch member is moved to "a latched position" to "directly or indirectly" engage the mounting post and hold the toilet down.
The latch member is also "movable to an unlatched position wherein the latch member is directly or indirectly disengaged from the mounting post" to allow the seat to be lifted up from the mounting post. The latch member also has a "top wall" and, when the latch member is in the latched position, the top wall "substantially completely covers the mounting post". The hinge post and latch member form two, moving parts that must engage each other. Dirt and filth can enter the joints between these parts, which forms a breeding ground for bacteria.
Moreover, the moving parts can become separated and lost or broken. What is needed is a toilet seat and lid quick release assembly with a hinge mount formed as a single piece and a quick release lever that engages the hinge mount from beneath.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0022] Reference will now be made in detail to the preferred embodiments of the invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings.
[0023] Figure 1 shows an exploded view of the parts of the toilet seat quick release system 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention. A hinge mount 11 is secured to the top of a toilet bowl (not shown). The hinge mount has a forward-facing body portion 37 which forms a hinge structure 38. A hinge axle 14 extends through a bore 46 (shown in Figure 3A) in the hinge structure 38.
A first hinge 12 has a first hinge head 36 with a bore 50 (shown in Figure 4) into which the first hinge axle journal 39 is inserted. The first hinge 12 can rotate on the journal 39. The first hinge 12 has a forward-facing tongue 34 with holes 35.
The tongue 34 provides the first hinge surface to which a toilet seat 20 (shown in Figure 2) or lid 21 (also shown in Figure 2) can be fixed with screws (not shown).
A second hinge 13 has a second hinge head 42 with a substantially rectangular bore 43 into which the substantially rectangular axle journal 41 is inserted.
It will be appreciated that, owing to the rectangular bore 43 and journal 41, when the second hinge 13 is rotated with respect to the hinge structure 38 of the hinge mount 11, the axle 14 will rotate.
[0024] In a preferred embodiment, ribs 40 on the surface of the first axle journal 39 frictionally engage the bore 50 of the first hinge 12, so that when the axle 14 rotates it exerts rotating force to the first hinge 12. In this way, if the first hinge 12 is mounted to the toilet seat 20, as shown in Figure 2, putting down the seat 20 from a raised position will also cause the lid 21 to follow. The second hinge 13 has a forward-facing tongue 44 with holes 45. The tongue 44 provides the second hinge surface to which a toilet lid 21 (shown in Figure 2) or seat (also shown in Figure 2) can be fixed with screws (not shown).
[0025] The hinge mount 11 is secured to a toilet bowl by a quick release hinge hold-down screw 17 which extends through the bore 51 (shown in Figure 5) extending through a mounting post 15. The mounting post 15 is sized to fit through the conventional holes (not shown) that extend down through the bottom surface of a toilet bowl. The mounting post 15 has a flanged head 26 that rests on top of the toilet bowl and a threaded shaft 27 that extends through the holes in a toilet bowl and extends below the bottom lip of the toilet bowl. A mounting post nut 16 has a threaded bore 28 that mates with the shaft 27 to secure the mounting post 15 to the toilet bowl. The hinge hold-down screw 17 has a hexagonal shaft 25 (shown in Figure 6C) that is sized to rotate within the mounting post bore 51. The hinge hold-down screw has a flanged head 22 that rest on top of the head 26 of the mounting post 15. The hold-down screw 17 extends through the bottom of the mounting post 15 and a release lever 18 is fixed to the bottom of the hexagonal shaft 25 of the hold-down screw 17 by a screw 19 that threads into a threaded bore 52 (shown in Figure 6B) at the bottom of the hexagonal shaft 25. A hexagonal bore 31 in the release lever 18 mates with the hexagonal shaft 25 of the hold-down screw 17. It will be appreciated that, owing to the hexagonal shape of the hold-down screw 17 shaft 25 and the complimentary bore 31 of the release lever 18, when the extension 30 of the release lever 18 is turned, it rotates the hold-down screw 17.
[00261 The peripheral edge 23 of the flanged head 22 of the hold-down screw 17 has a pair of diametrically-opposed projections 24. As shown in Figures 3A
and 3B, the hold-down screw projections 24 engage a locking slot 49 in an opening 53 of the hinge mount 11. Thus, turning the release lever 18 in one direction forces the projections 24 of the hold-down screw 17 into the locking slot 49 and secure the hinge mount 11 to the toilet bowl.
[0027] The system described above allows a toilet seat and lid to be removed easily from a toilet bowl, which makes cleaning the toilet much easier. The release lever 18 is located below the mounting post 15 and its nut 16, below the back lip of a conventional toilet bowl. By turning the release lever 18 in one direction, the hold-down screw projections 24 are released from the locking slot 49 in the hinge mount 11 and the hinge mounts 11, along with the seat 20 and lid 21 can be lifted from the bowl. Placing the hinge mount 11 onto the flanged-head 22 of the hold-down screw 17 and turning the release levers 18 in the opposite direction secures the hinge mount 11 onto the bowl.
[0028] As a result, the hinge assembly according to an embodiment of the present invention easily installs a toilet seat and allows quick release of the toilet seat. In addition, the toilet seat can be replaced without loosening the mounting screw from a bottom surface of the toilet bowl. Thus, maintenance and repair of a toilet seat according to an embodiment of the present invention is improved.
[0029] The hinge assembly according to an embodiment of the present invention also enables quick release of a toilet seat. The toilet seat can be removed without unfastening or undoing mounting bolts and nuts that are attached to the toilet bowl.
[0030] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made in the hinge assembly of embodiments of the invention without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention. Thus, it is intended that embodiments of the invention cover the modifications and variations of this invention provided they come within the scope of the appended claims and their equivalents.
[0031] The drawings and description set forth here represent only some embodiments of the invention. After considering these, skilled persons will understand that there are many ways to make toilet seat and lid quick release hinge systems according to the principles disclosed. The inventor contemplates that the use of the alternative structures, materials, or manufacturing techniques, which result in a toilet seat and lid quick release hinge system according to the principles disclosed, will be within the scope of the invention.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0022] Reference will now be made in detail to the preferred embodiments of the invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings.
[0023] Figure 1 shows an exploded view of the parts of the toilet seat quick release system 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention. A hinge mount 11 is secured to the top of a toilet bowl (not shown). The hinge mount has a forward-facing body portion 37 which forms a hinge structure 38. A hinge axle 14 extends through a bore 46 (shown in Figure 3A) in the hinge structure 38.
A first hinge 12 has a first hinge head 36 with a bore 50 (shown in Figure 4) into which the first hinge axle journal 39 is inserted. The first hinge 12 can rotate on the journal 39. The first hinge 12 has a forward-facing tongue 34 with holes 35.
The tongue 34 provides the first hinge surface to which a toilet seat 20 (shown in Figure 2) or lid 21 (also shown in Figure 2) can be fixed with screws (not shown).
A second hinge 13 has a second hinge head 42 with a substantially rectangular bore 43 into which the substantially rectangular axle journal 41 is inserted.
It will be appreciated that, owing to the rectangular bore 43 and journal 41, when the second hinge 13 is rotated with respect to the hinge structure 38 of the hinge mount 11, the axle 14 will rotate.
[0024] In a preferred embodiment, ribs 40 on the surface of the first axle journal 39 frictionally engage the bore 50 of the first hinge 12, so that when the axle 14 rotates it exerts rotating force to the first hinge 12. In this way, if the first hinge 12 is mounted to the toilet seat 20, as shown in Figure 2, putting down the seat 20 from a raised position will also cause the lid 21 to follow. The second hinge 13 has a forward-facing tongue 44 with holes 45. The tongue 44 provides the second hinge surface to which a toilet lid 21 (shown in Figure 2) or seat (also shown in Figure 2) can be fixed with screws (not shown).
[0025] The hinge mount 11 is secured to a toilet bowl by a quick release hinge hold-down screw 17 which extends through the bore 51 (shown in Figure 5) extending through a mounting post 15. The mounting post 15 is sized to fit through the conventional holes (not shown) that extend down through the bottom surface of a toilet bowl. The mounting post 15 has a flanged head 26 that rests on top of the toilet bowl and a threaded shaft 27 that extends through the holes in a toilet bowl and extends below the bottom lip of the toilet bowl. A mounting post nut 16 has a threaded bore 28 that mates with the shaft 27 to secure the mounting post 15 to the toilet bowl. The hinge hold-down screw 17 has a hexagonal shaft 25 (shown in Figure 6C) that is sized to rotate within the mounting post bore 51. The hinge hold-down screw has a flanged head 22 that rest on top of the head 26 of the mounting post 15. The hold-down screw 17 extends through the bottom of the mounting post 15 and a release lever 18 is fixed to the bottom of the hexagonal shaft 25 of the hold-down screw 17 by a screw 19 that threads into a threaded bore 52 (shown in Figure 6B) at the bottom of the hexagonal shaft 25. A hexagonal bore 31 in the release lever 18 mates with the hexagonal shaft 25 of the hold-down screw 17. It will be appreciated that, owing to the hexagonal shape of the hold-down screw 17 shaft 25 and the complimentary bore 31 of the release lever 18, when the extension 30 of the release lever 18 is turned, it rotates the hold-down screw 17.
[00261 The peripheral edge 23 of the flanged head 22 of the hold-down screw 17 has a pair of diametrically-opposed projections 24. As shown in Figures 3A
and 3B, the hold-down screw projections 24 engage a locking slot 49 in an opening 53 of the hinge mount 11. Thus, turning the release lever 18 in one direction forces the projections 24 of the hold-down screw 17 into the locking slot 49 and secure the hinge mount 11 to the toilet bowl.
[0027] The system described above allows a toilet seat and lid to be removed easily from a toilet bowl, which makes cleaning the toilet much easier. The release lever 18 is located below the mounting post 15 and its nut 16, below the back lip of a conventional toilet bowl. By turning the release lever 18 in one direction, the hold-down screw projections 24 are released from the locking slot 49 in the hinge mount 11 and the hinge mounts 11, along with the seat 20 and lid 21 can be lifted from the bowl. Placing the hinge mount 11 onto the flanged-head 22 of the hold-down screw 17 and turning the release levers 18 in the opposite direction secures the hinge mount 11 onto the bowl.
[0028] As a result, the hinge assembly according to an embodiment of the present invention easily installs a toilet seat and allows quick release of the toilet seat. In addition, the toilet seat can be replaced without loosening the mounting screw from a bottom surface of the toilet bowl. Thus, maintenance and repair of a toilet seat according to an embodiment of the present invention is improved.
[0029] The hinge assembly according to an embodiment of the present invention also enables quick release of a toilet seat. The toilet seat can be removed without unfastening or undoing mounting bolts and nuts that are attached to the toilet bowl.
[0030] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made in the hinge assembly of embodiments of the invention without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention. Thus, it is intended that embodiments of the invention cover the modifications and variations of this invention provided they come within the scope of the appended claims and their equivalents.
[0031] The drawings and description set forth here represent only some embodiments of the invention. After considering these, skilled persons will understand that there are many ways to make toilet seat and lid quick release hinge systems according to the principles disclosed. The inventor contemplates that the use of the alternative structures, materials, or manufacturing techniques, which result in a toilet seat and lid quick release hinge system according to the principles disclosed, will be within the scope of the invention.
