A urine catcher as described helps to prevent urine accumulating near the ground of a urinal by providing a urine catcher that moves into place when a person approaches the urinal. In one embodiment, the system is mechanically actuated and moves the urine catcher through a linkage. In another embodiment, the system includes a proximity or motion sensor coupled to a motor which moves the urine catcher. The urine catcher may be provided as a kit for installing adjacent to a urinal.

An automated urinal comprising a basin configured to receive a fluid; a wall; a trapway in fluid communication with the basin; a flush valve; and an automatic flush system; wherein, the automatic flush system comprises one or more sensors and a controller; the one or more sensors are selected from a group consisting of a first sensor coupled to an exterior of the trapway, a second sensor coupled to a rear surface of the wall, and a third sensor coupled to an underside of the basin; the controller is in electrical communication with the one or more sensors and is in electrical communication with the flush valve; and wherein the automatic flush system is configured to detect introduction of fluid into the basin and to send a flush signal to the flush valve to initiate a flush.

Systems and methods for containing fluid splash include using a fluid flow spaced from a vessel and/or fluid surface to effectively trap materials from a fluid stream flowing through the fluid flow. The fluid flow creates a spray envelope in connection with the fluid surface and/or vessel and substantially prevents droplets of the fluid stream from exiting the vessel. The fluid flow is created by allowing a supply fluid to flow through a nozzle oriented to cast a spray pattern into the vessel and/or into contact with the fluid surface. The fluid flow may be selectively activated and deactivated and/or be automatically (e.g., light or motion) activated and deactivated.

The present disclosure provides a split-type automatic lifting bracket device and a sanitary product. The split-type automatic lifting bracket device comprises an upper bracket assembly and a lower bracket assembly, wherein the upper bracket assembly is used for bearing a water receiver or a waterway control valve; and the lower bracket assembly is used for bearing or supporting and driving a sanitary product to rise and descend, and comprises a self-supporting leg assembly, an auxiliary standing device, an automatic lifting control device, a lifting bracket, a push-pull power device, a rolling guide device, and the sanitary product. The lifting structure of the present application can rise and descend automatically without an additional force to assist in height adjustment. The water receiver and other structures are not provided on the lifting bracket, so that a weight for the lifting structure to rise is reduced.

A self-cleaning toilet has a lower cup-shaped body delimiting an emptying opening connected to a draining pipe, and a filling opening, opposite to the emptying opening and facing a user of the self-cleaning toilet. The lower cup-shaped body has at least one side wall delimiting, with an upper edge thereof, at least one portion of the filling opening, and delimiting at least partially a gap interposed between an inner surface and an outer surface, the gap forming, with the at least one side wall a first basin adapted to contain a volume of fluid. The first basin leads to both the inner surface and the outer surface and is connected to a fluid supply duct adapted to convey a volume of cleaning fluid into the first basin so that when the cleaning fluid received in the first basin overflows, it cleans both the inner and outer surfaces.

Systems, methods, and devices relating to urinal, in some examples having a movable portion able to pivot from a generally closed to a generally open position. The urinal may have a drain line engaged with a proximal end of the funnel for conveying urine and rinse water into a sewer line or a toilet bowl and a rinse line coupled with a water supply for rinsing urine therein. The urinal may be movable with the assistance of one or more sensors that may automatically signal other electrical or mechanical components to move one or more portions of the urinal, and may be include elements that seal portions of the urinal when not in use or during cleaning to reduce gas or liquid escaping from the urinal system.

A plumbing fixture includes a sump and a trapway extending from sump at an inlet of the trapway. A jet orifice is disposed in the trapway at approximately the inlet and defines an angled axis that is oriented upwardly toward an upper wall of the trapway and rearwardly toward an interior of the trapway. The jet orifice is configured to direct fluid from a fluid supply source to the trapway.
