SOLUTION: The portable toilet 1 is provided with four legs 3, the leg 3 is composed of a leg main body 4 and a leg end part 5 attached to the lower end of the leg main body 4, a nut 12 is buried at the lower end part of the leg main body 4 and a bolt rod 15 to which a rotation stop nut 14 is screwed is extended from the upper surface of the leg end part 5. By screwing the bolt rod 15 of the leg end part 5 to the nut 12 of the leg main body 4 for a desired depth, tightening the rotation stop nut 14 and fixing the bolt rod 15 to the nut 12 in a screwed state, the leg end part 5 is attached to the leg main body 4 so as to adjust the height continuously.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a portable toilet with adjustable height, especially furniture-like (wooden and four legs).
The present invention relates to a portable toilet.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art FIG. 8 shows a conventional example. In the portable toilet (31) shown in the figure, the legs (3
3,33), and each leg (33) is a cylindrical upper leg.
(33A) and a rod-like lower leg (33B) slidably inserted into the upper leg (33A), and the lower leg (33B)
Is the upper leg (33A) at a desired position by a fixing screw (34).
In this way, the toilet (31) can be adjusted to a desired height according to the user's body shape (Japanese Patent Publication No. 5-38619). FIG. 9 shows a further conventional example. In the portable toilet (41) shown in the figure, legs (43, 43) are protruded from the four corners of the bottom surface of the toilet body (42), and a grounding member (44) is provided at the lower end of each leg (43).
