This inventi'on'relates to a toilet seat for children which: may be connected to the conventional seat. An object of the invention is to provide atoilet seat and cover which may be readily substituted for the conventional covernow in use.
:Anothenobject of: the invention is to provide a childs toilet seat which may be readily attached toor removed fromthe: conventional sea-t.
A further object of the invention is 'toprovide aachilds toilet seat which. is readily constructed ofnon-critical material, and which may be read,- ily manufactured in substantial quantities.
An additional object of'the invention is to provide a seat of the typedescribed having a top, arm supports and 'guardlor' safety bar which when in folded position provide a cover of attractive appearance. a
An additional object of the invention is to provide a seatorine type described which may be constructed of a minimum number of parts.
Other objects will appear herein-afterirom the specification; 1
In the drawings: 5 Figure l-is a perspective view of theseat in open position.
-Flgure 2 is a top plan view of the seat in cl-osed position. h
Figure 3' is a side elevation of the seat in closed position.
Figure 4 is a vertical section taken centrally through the seat, and
Figure 5 is a. fragmentary horizontal section of a detail of the invention.
The seat has a base I. This seat is provided with the usual aperture 21. There is a back 2 which is mounted by hinges 26 to said base i as shown in Figure 2. The back has attached to it the armrests 3 and 4 by pivots 25. The forward ends of the armrests are supported by upright members 5 and 5. These members are pivotally connected at to the armrests and their lower portions are pivotally connected to raised portions 1 and 8 of base I, by hinges 24.
The base i may be readily attached to or detached from a conventional to let seat by means of the hooks 18 shown in detail in Figure 5 having a curved portion 25 which extends into an aperture I9 of the seat. The book is provided with an elongated shank 2i having a head 22. This shank and head are located within the recess 28, and the hook is normally urged to a closed position by the expansible spring 23.
When the seat is to be applied to the conventional toilet seat the cover for such seat is ordinar-ily; removedon pivoted to its vertical position, whereupon the -attachme'nt of the present-invention isappliedby placing the same overth-e seat and pullingout the severai hooks i8 which are snapped over the edgesotthe-conventionat seat. The guard orsafety bar w ill inaybe pivotally or rigid-1y attached to-the arm 3 (byattaching means not-shown); --'I l-1e -opposite-end of thesafetybai may be hookedover th'epin Ha as indicated-in Figure-i 1. i 1 It will be noted-by reference to Figures-wand! that the: cover 2 may -be-held inits openorclosed position by means of the following; construction:-
'l he baek of the cover is'provided wi-th anelom gated slot t2 terminating in aiholei l-3-.- Ihe-latch-w ing bar it is-adaptedtoride in this slotand when the cover ism its raised position to-engageithe aperture i3 to-holditin suchaposition. Thislatching bar M isheld-in:- said slot by a coilrspring If! mounted ina' recess to near the-base'-i ,'asindicated'in Figure 4. The right-hand endaof the latching bar, as viewed in Figure his in screw threaded: engagement with the screw threaded aperture l 5-of-the yoke tfi wh-ich is pivotally con nectedat 4 t to a f-asteningscrew 42,. which latter may be driven-into the-base- Lor otherwisez attachedltosaidbaseia h V i i i By reference to Fignrer z it will loo-noted that the seat, withthecover in closedposition-,- provides a construction wherein the base is completely covered by the several parts forming the back, the armrests, safety bar and upright members.
It will be readily appreciated that the seat is quickly detachable from the conventional toilet seat. It is constructed of a minimum number of parts, the majority of which may be made of wood or'moldable material. The entire seat may be used in place of the conventional toilet seat.
Having fully described my invention and a preferred embodiment thereof, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited by the specific illustration given but by the full scope of the appended claims.
