Provided is excretion detection system (50) including: toilet seat (10) that is openable; imaging unit (2) with which toilet seat (10) is provided; and information processor (15) that estimates at least one selected from the group consisting of (i) presence or absence of urine or feces, and (ii) a property of the urine or feces, by using imaging data of imaging unit (2), excretion detection system (50) being configured not to capture an image using imaging unit (2) when toilet seat (10) opens.

A system for suppling water to a toilet through a hole located in the toilet. The hole may be the hole provided for securing the toilet seat to the toilet. The hole may be provided with a hollow fastener for both securing the toilet seat to the toilet and for supplying water to the toilet. The system may supply water from a source to a component of the toilet, such as a bidet seat or a toilet bowl cleaning seat.

A toilet seat mounting assembly that includes a hinge mount on an upper surface of a portion of a pedestal, the hinge mount having a body with a bore; an anchor underneath a lower surface of the portion; a fastener extending through the bore and operatively coupled to the anchor to clamp the portion between the hinge mount and the anchor; a hinge base having a mount supported by the upper surface, the mount having an outer wall, which defines an opening that receives the body, and a locking feature flexibly coupled to the outer wall; and a lock cap rotatably coupled to the mount and having a wall. The wall retains the locking feature into a locking engagement with the hinge mount in a locking position of the lock cap, and the mount is removable from the hinge mount in a non-locking position of the lock cap.

A splash guard toilet riser apparatus having a wall having a front portion has a concave indentation to reduce splash during toilet use. The splash guard toilet riser has a rear wall with a depressed elevation to allow for access to clean a toilet riser user. The splash guard toilet riser constructed of foam material and adapted to sit atop a toilet during use of a toilet.

The present invention relates to an auxiliary seat cover for a toilet, including: a seat part having the shape of an arch corresponding to the top periphery of a bowl of the toilet; inner and outer skirt parts extended downward from inner and outer peripheries of the seat part in such a manner as to surround the inner and outer peripheries of top of the bowl of the toilet; and a slant cover extended upward from the inner periphery of top of the seat part to the outside, whereby the bowl of the toilet are prevented from being dirty by the urine or water, the urine or water naturally flows back to the interior of the bowl, and the bowl is separated from the bowl and washed in an easy manner, thereby enabling the toilet to be used in a sanitary state.

An analytical toilet is disclosed. The toilet includes a bowl for receiving excreta, a mechanism that uses a consumable for analyzing a sample of excreta, a storage structure for storing the consumable, a sensor that detects at least one property of the consumable, and a processor that generates an alert when the property is outside a predetermined parameter. The property the sensor detects can be used to determine at least one of the identity of the consumable, the quantity or supply of the consumable, or a property related to the suitability of the consumable.
