nonies` i To all whom it/may concern: i
Be it known Ithat LCHAnLns R. BLAKmn citizen of the v1United States, residing et Richmond, in the county of Contra Costa and State offCvalifornia, have invented new Toilets, of which the following is :t specitication.
HTliis invent-ion :relates to. commodes, und is desidned. usan attachment to passenger cartoi ets and the like;
it is the object of this invention to provide :isnitary ineens for the collection and disposzil ofexcrementel Imetter, etc., in pessenger cer toilets, and which permitsof the toilet being used during a stoppage of the -cir etv depots or other points.
vund at the side of the-railway trucks.
Another objectis to -provide u device. oit this cln-u'ncten having incnnsfor preventing the rise of noxious exhulutions und ietid odors into the interior oi the toilet compartment, und in which all parte: ere readily ncce-ssible for cleansing with entiseptics so us to render it eliisolutely sanitary.` The invention consists vot the parte und the construction and combination of parts yas hereinafter more yfully described und. claimed, having` reference to the accompanyingr drawings, in which l Figure l is enelevational vie-w of the invention with partsbrolienuwuy. Fig. 2 is n horizontalsection'on the line Xie-X, Fig. l.
ln the drawings, A represents the ordi-` nary toilet bowl und seat mounted on the iioor 2 oi n passenger couch or the like.

is provided with an upwardly swinging door ,8 which is provided' with suitable hinges and catches. The opposite side of the compartment has e door 9 which is hinged at the bottom, so as to swing outward and downward, as shown in Fig. l; the downward movement of the door 9 being limited by the slotted bar 10 and pin il, or any other suitable means commonly employed forsuch purposes, a snep-catch l2 being provided to latch the door 9 in a closed position. A trap-door 13 is built in the door 2 of the passenger coach, approximately above the door 9 when in its extended position, so that the door 9 mey be opened or closed, and e receptacle le placed in or'removed from the compartment 5 from within the interior of the toilet room.
The receptacle Mis intended to be d estroyed, and is preferably constructed of cheap waterproof materiel, such es oiled or parafiined paper, and may also be coated or otherwise provided with suitable deodoriz ingand disinfecting substances in any desired mennen The drop-doors 6 are manipulated and normally retained in e closed or horizontal position by ineens of links l5 which connect one side of each door 6 to e vertically disposed rod 1 which extends upvverd through the ioor 2, and is provided with ratchet teeth i7 adapted to be engaged by a pewl 18, or other suitable catch device for retaining the rod 16 in its uppermost position, shown inFig. 1. rlhe upper end of the rod i6 may have e handle 19 by ineens oi2 which en. attendent muy readily grip the rod 16 to open or close the lbottom hinged sections or doors l; the base of the hand-,bold 19 also serving es e stop to limit the downwerd movement of -the rods i6 when released from the pawl 1S.
The compartment 5 is provided `on op osite sides with Ventilating holes Q0 which are disposed above the upper edge of the receiver lll and below the discharge open ing 3 of the bowl A, so that u current oi sir may pass between the extended portion e of the bowl and the receptacle le.
The operation of the invention is as follows: The bottom or drop-doors 6 being closed, as shown inI Fig. l, the rod 16 being in its uppermost position and engaged by the pnwl 18, the receptacle 14 is placed within the compartment through either door 9 when the car is standing still, or through door S when the car is in motion; the trapdoor 13 being opened to give access thereto from the interior of the toilet room. The doors 8 and 9 are then closed .and latched, the receptacle 14 resting on the drop-doors 6 and in position below the bowl.
When it becomes necessary or desirable to remove the receptacle 11i, it may be accomplished While the car is in motion, by releasing the pawl 18 out of engagement With the bar 16, whereupon the drop-doors 6 Will open downward into the position shown in dotted lines, thus permitting the receptacle and its contents to be discharged from the ccn'ipartment 5. lhe attendant then closes the drop-doors 6 by lifting up the rod 16 by the hand-hold 19 until the pawl 18 rengages with the ratchet teeth 17. A. new receptacle is then placed in the compartment 5, as before described.
If it is desired, the receptacle may be removed from the compartment 5 through the doorway 8 when the car is stationary, and Where it would be objectionable to discharge it through the doors 6, as before mentioned. However, it is obvious that suitable connections may be made from beneath the com pertinent 5 to a sewer or cesspool where the car stops at a station.
The receptacle or receptacles 14 are made of such size to nearly contact the sides of the compartment 5, so that there Will be, no bulging and consequent possibility of bursting.
The essentiai `purpose of this invention is that it renders i" e car toilet accessible at all times to car pa.. engels, no mattei' Whether the train is standing at a station or not, and that the consequent use is Without offense to the public in and about the station, or in contravention of any municipal ordinances.
The receptacle le is a receptacle of suitable size so that it will only need to be rei moved at some convenient time, when the train is traversing an unoccupied or sparsely settled section of the country, or when the train is stopped and the doors 6 stand d' over a sewer, cesspool, or the like.
device is absolutely sanitary an'd it can easily" be kept so since all parts are l accessible and can be easily cleaned antiseptics, if necessary, or easily tlnsLed out with hot Water.
Discharging the receptacle 14 or putting in a new one is an easy matter and can be scales train is travelin Having thus ascribed my invention, What I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent is l. The combination with a toilet-seat, of a normally closed compartment therebeneath, said, compartment having hinged sides and bottom, means independent of the seat for opening and closing the bottom of said compartment, and a receptacle or box Within the compartment and adapted'to be discharged therefrom When the bottom is opened.
2. In a car, the combination With the toilet-seat thereof, of a compartment situated beneath the car and seat, said compartment having oppositely acting hinged door sections forming a bottom therefor, and said compartments having a movable side alfording ingress to the compartment When the sections are closed, and means for opening and closing said sections from inside the car.
3. In a car, the combination with the toilet-seat thereof, ofa compartment situated beneath the car and seat, said compartment `having oppositely acting hinged doorA sec-. tions forming a bottom therefor, and said 'compartments having a movable side alfording ingress to the compartment when the sections are closed, and means for opening said last-named means including a rack-bar having downwardly divergent link connections with the sections, and a catch engageable with the rack on said bar to hold the sections closed.
4;. In a car, the combination with the toilet-seat thereof, of a compartment situated beneath the car and seat, said compartment having oppositely acting hinged door sections forming a bottom therefor, means for opening and closing said sections from inside the car, said sections having hinged sides, means by which one of said s1des may be opened from Within the car, and a removment through` said hinged side.
