Quick release motor pump assembly for electric marine toilet
Apparatus featuring a toilet base having a wall forming a chamber for receiving waste, the wall having a toilet base coupling portion; a pump/motor assembly having a pump inlet configured to receive the waste pumped from the chamber, the pump inlet having a pump inlet coupling portion arranged inside the toilet base coupling portion when the pump/motor assembly and the toilet base are coupled together; and a quick release coupling mechanism having a clip receiving portion and a clip configured to slide within the clip receiving portion from a disengage position to an engage position to engage the pump inlet coupling portion and couple the toilet base and the pump/motor assembly together, and also configured to slide from the engage position to the disengage position to disengage the pump inlet coupling portion and decouple the pump/motor assembly from the toilet base.

Human Waste Propulsion System
A hydraulic propulsion system for disposing of human waste. The system includes a toilet having a bowl, and a base below the bowl. The base is secured to the chassis of a vehicle, or to a remote sanitation facility. The system also comprises a hydraulic flushing mechanism associated with the toilet, and a fluid receiving chamber that receives water and human waste when the flushing mechanism is actuated. The human waste is directed through a sewage ejection pipe and into a black-water tank or a municipal sewer system. The human waste propulsion system further comprises a pneumatic line. The pneumatic line is in fluid communication with the fluid receiving chamber proximate the bowl. The pneumatic line receives compressed air which is delivered when the hydraulic flushing mechanism is actuated. Additionally, the human waste propulsion system has a controller.
