A toilet for administering a product to a user is disclosed. The toilet includes a bowl, a mechanism for administering the product to the user, a storage structure for storing the product, a sensor that detects a property of the product, and a processor. The bowl is adapted to receiving excreta from the user. The processor compares the detected property with a range of values indicating the suitability of the product for being applied to a user. The processor generates an alert when the detected property falls outside the range of values.

A an analytical toilet comprising a bowl for receiving excreta comprising a platform for receiving feces; a urine drain; a feces outlet from the bowl; and a urine outlet from the bowl; wherein the platform and drain are separated by a raised hump; at least one first load cell for detecting the weight of the bowl; at least one fecal sensor for detecting at least one property of the feces; and at least one urine sensor for detecting at least one property of the urine is disclosed.

A shield system for installation to a toilet bowl for temporarily covering an outlet port of the toilet bowl. The shield system includes a support assembly, a membrane, and a mounting assembly. The support assembly includes a base piece defining a central aperture sized to receive the outlet port. The membrane is connected to the base piece and extends across the central aperture. The mounting assembly is configured for securing the shield system to the toilet bowl in a region of the outlet port (e.g., to a base of the toilet bowl), and can include two threaded bolts. In an installed arrangement, the membrane is secured over the outlet port in liquid tight manner, serving to prevent discharge of contained water from the toilet bowl.

A controller acquires image data captured by a camera which is located at a toilet to capture an image of a bowl of the toilet, determines whether an unacceptable matter being an object having a possibility of clogging the toilet is in the bowl by performing image recognition based on the image data, and sends, to a flush water controller, a flow prohibition signal of prohibiting flush water from flowing when it is determined that the unacceptable matter is in the bowl.

A flush toilet includes a toilet main body and a control unit. The toilet main body includes a skirt, a rear storage configured to store at least a part of the control unit, and an opening to which a drain pipe is connected is formed penetrating, in a front-rear direction, a portion below a center in a left-right direction of a rear wall of the skirt. The rear storage forms a discharge socket storage on a front side of the opening in a region below a center of the rear storage in the left-right direction. And a side wall surface in the discharge socket storage protrudes more in a center direction of the opening than a side wall surface in the opening, to reduce an opening cross-sectional area of the discharge socket storage to be smaller than an opening cross-sectional area of the opening.
