The present invention relates generally to the field of accessories for plumbing fixtures having openings for a drain. More specifically, the present invention relates to a screen or guard device having a plurality of vertical members, which are connected to a plurality of horizontal cross members. The device can then be placed into the interior of a plumbing fixture enclosure such that the vertical members contact the sides of the interior area of the fixture and the horizontal cross members prevent an object from being thrown into the fixture and lost down the opening.

Provided is a toilet exterior structure of an aircraft lavatory unit. A shroud mount in an upper end outer peripheral plate portion is provided in a lower surface of a main body plate portion. The shroud mount includes space portions extending in the width direction of the main body plate portion between partition walls provided in the main body plate portion. Where the body plate portion is placed in the upper end outer peripheral plate portion, a plurality of air communication passages communicating a space inside of the upper end outer peripheral plate portion in the width direction and a space outside of the upper end outer peripheral plate portion in the width direction are formed by the space portions. Where the main body plate portion is stepped on by a foot, the plurality of partition walls are positioned inside of a contour of the foot.

A skirted toilet assembly, comprising a toilet bowl having a sump outlet; and a wall extending around the bowl from a first rear edge to a second rear edge; wherein the wall, the first rear edge, and the second rear edge define a space within the wall, the sump outlet is configured to couple to a trapway, the trapway is configured to fluidly couple the sump outlet with a sewer outlet, and the trapway is configured to be disposed within the space. A trapway may be a thermoplastic and the sump outlet a ceramic.

A method and system having a water-flush toilet having a toilet bowl that is in fluid communication with a water source and is mounted with a sensor. The sensor includes a transmitter to transmit an ultrasonic signal and a receiver to receive an ultrasonic signal. The sensor may measure a Time of Flight (ToF) of the signal to obtain a ToF measurement. A microcontroller is electrically connected to the sensor and may receive and process the ToF measurement using an algorithm to determine a bowl status. The toilet also includes at least one water valve that is disposed between the bowl and the water source, and that is electrically connected to the microcontroller for instructing the at least one water valve to move from a first position to a second position for a duration of time, wherein the duration of time corresponds to the bowl status.

An excrement analysis apparatus includes an inputter, a memory, a first analyzer, and a second analyzer. The inputter inputs imaging data captured by an image capture apparatus installed in such a way as to include, in a capturing range, an excretion range of excrement in a toilet bowl of a toilet. The memory temporarily holds the imaging data input by the inputter. The first analyzer analyzes first analysis target data being the imaging data input by the inputter, and outputs notification information to an observer who observes a user of the toilet. The second analyzer analyzes second analysis target data being the imaging data that is input by the inputter and temporarily held by the memory, and outputs detailed information indicating a content of excretion.

A toilet assembly includes a toilet, a non-vitreous fluid delivery component, and a connector assembly. The non-vitreous fluid delivery component is coupled to, and in fluid communication with, the toilet. The connector assembly couples the non-vitreous fluid delivery component to the toilet in a substantially watertight manner. The connector assembly includes a connector body, a nut adjustably coupled to the connector body, and a sealing member disposed on the connector body. The nut is configured to be adjusted relative to the connector body to cause the connector body to compress the sealing member against a portion of the toilet, such that the sealing member creates a substantially watertight seal between the toilet and the connector body.

A toilet is disclosed. The toilet has a bowl adapted to receive excreta, a shelf for receiving feces in the bowl, and one or more sensor for detecting a property of the feces. The property may be related to a user's heath and wellness and may be presented to a person for their review and assessment.
