DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
(21) FIG. 7 shows a perspective view and FIG. 17 shows a cutaway view of preferred triangular shaped portable toilet 1. Portable toilet 1 includes three vertical sides 2, 3 and 4. Door 5 is connected to vertical side 2 via hinges 16. Vent 6 is connected to vertical side 2 and provides ventilation and cooling to toilet 1. Vent pipe 7 is connected to holding tank waste holding tank 8 and extends upwards from tank 8 through triangular shaped roof 9. Toilet seat 9 is positioned over the top of tank 8. Tank 8 is pie shaped and is rigidly connected to toilet 1. Tank 8 rests on triangular shaped floor 14 and is positioned at the intersection of sides 2 and 4 at the vertices opposite door 5, as shown. Urinal 10 is rigidly connected to toilet 1 and positioned at the intersection of sides 3 and 4. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 7, door 5 has been mounted so that it is positioned close to the intersection between sides 2 and 3 to allow for more room to mount urinal 10 at the intersection between sides 3 and 4. Urinal pipe 11 connects urine from urinal 10 to tank 8.
