TOILET SEAT ASSEMBLY
A toilet seat assembly is for a toilet and includes a hinge post configured to be coupled to the toilet, and a toilet seat rotatably coupled to the hinge post and defining a bottom surface. The toilet seat includes a ring having a support surface opposite the bottom surface and configured to support a person when sitting on the toilet, a first wing extending from a first side of the ring, and a second wing extending from a second side of the ring opposite the first side. The toilet seat assembly further includes a first handle extending upwardly from the first wing and oriented perpendicularly relative to the bottom surface of the toilet seat, and a second handle extending upwardly from the second wing and oriented perpendicularly relative to the bottom surface of the toilet seat. The first and second handles are configured to be gripped by the person.

Hinge post for toilet seat
A toilet seat assembly includes a hinge post configured to be coupled to a toilet bowl, a toilet seat configured to move between a raised position and a lowered position about a pivot axis relative to the toilet bowl, and a slow-close member coupled between the hinge post and the toilet seat such that the toilet seat is moveable along a second axis relative to the hinge post. The slow-close member controls movement of the toilet seat about the pivot axis when the toilet seat moves from the raised position to the lowered position.

TOILET SEAT ASSEMBLY
A toilet seat assembly including a toilet seat having a top surface and a bottom surface. The top surface is configured to support a user on a toilet bowl while the bottom surface engages a surface of the toilet bowl. The toilet seat assembly further includes a hinge post coupled to the toilet bowl via a fastener and having an elongated slot defining a longitudinal axis. The toilet seat assembly further includes a hinge assembly pivotably coupling the toilet seat to the hinge post about a pivot axis that is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. The hinge assembly at least partially overlaps the elongated slot of the hinge post in a direction along the longitudinal axis of the elongated slot.

TOILET SEAT AND HINGE
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.

TOILET SEAT HINGE
A hinge assembly is configured to pivotably couple a toilet seat to a toilet bowl about a pivot axis. The hinge assembly includes a base configured to be selectively fixed to the toilet bowl, and a post coupled to the base. The base includes a top portion, and a bottom portion opposite the top portion. The bottom portion having a skirt that is configured to abut against the toilet bowl when the base is fixed to the toilet bowl to inhibit liquid from entering between the base and the toilet bowl. The post is configured to support the toilet seat for rotation about the pivot axis.
