Abstract

The Murphy Potty is the first toilet that is stored in a wall or cabinet, completely out of sight except when in use. It will use a suction pump waste removal system that will reduce water usage and will be housed in a water tight container that will allow for sterilization and self-cleaning without direct human contact. This toilet will allow for simultaneous self-cleaning and sanitization of the inside, outside and floor surface surrounding the toilet.

Description

  • The Murphy Potty is an unconventional toilet that is housed in the wall in a water tight, sealed box. When it is needed for use, a wall button is pressed and the toilet folds down out of the wall to the floor where is sits on a flat door surface. The toilet can then be used the same as any conventional toilet. When the flush button is pressed, a vacuum suction pump removes the waste (much like an airplane unit). The wall button is pressed again and the door panel folds back to the wall, placing the toilet into the sealed compartment where a sanitization process takes place. (Much like a dishwasher). The toilet is then stored in the wall where it is invisible to the room and sealed in its sanitary case until it is needed again.
  • This toilet is the first and only toilet that is self-cleaning and self-sanitizing. It is not visible and unsightly in a room, taking up no floor space when it is not in use.
  • The Murphy Potty is indicated for installation in any setting where toilets are required and used: residential, commercial and for airlines.
  • There are implications for reduction in water consumption making it energy efficient and environmentally friendly. There are also environmental implications for chemical and hazardous materials not being exposed to or in contact with humans directly as is the case with cleaning conventional toilets
