Abstract
The present invention is a toilet seat device fabricated from a polymeric material and a photoluminescence material. This combination provides for a structurally sound seat that is adapted to glow for an extended period of time in the absence of light.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modifiedI claim:
1 . A toilet seat comprising:
a seat section having a central opening therein;
said seat if fabricated from a polymeric material and photo luminescence material; and
said photo luminescence material illuminates said seat section in the absence of light.
2 . A toilet seat as in claim 1 wherein said polymeric material is approximately 40 to 60% of the total amount and said photo luminescence material is approximately 30-50% of the total amount.
3 . A toilet seat as in claim 1 wherein a lid is hingedly secured to said seat.
4 . A toilet seat as in claim 3 wherein said lid is fabricated from a polymeric material and photo luminescence material and said photo luminescence material illuminates said seat section and said lid in the absence of light.
5 . A toilet seat as in claim 3 wherein an attaching device is secured to said seat and said attaching device enables said seat section to be secured to a conventional toilet.
6 . A toilet seat as in claim 1 wherein said seat section includes a lower surface and said lower surface includes a plurality of spacers.
7 . A toilet seat as in claim 6 wherein said spacers are fabricated from a polymeric material and photo luminescence material and said photo luminescence material illuminates said seat section and said spacers in the absence of light.
8 . A toilet seat as in claim 2 wherein said seat section further includes an activator.
9 . A toilet seat as in claim 8 wherein said activator is euopium.
10 . A toilet seat as in claim 9 wherein said europium is approximately 3 to ten percent of the total amount.
11 . A toilet seat comprising:
a seat section having a central opening therein and a lid hingedly secured thereto;
said lid if fabricated from a polymeric material and photo luminescence material; and
said photo luminescence material illuminates said lid in the absence of light.
12 . A toilet seat as in claim 11 wherein said polymeric material is approximately 40 to 60% of the total amount and said photo luminescence material is approximately 30-50% of the total amount.
13 . A toilet seat as in claim 11 wherein an attaching device is secured to said seat and said attaching device enables said seat section to be secured to a conventional toilet.
14 . A toilet seat as in claim 11 wherein said seat section includes a lower surface and said lower surface includes a plurality of spacers.
15 . A toilet seat as in claim 11 wherein said lid further includes an activator.
16 . A toilet seat as in claim 15 wherein said activator is europium.
17 . A toilet seat as in claim 16 wherein said europium is approximately 3 to ten percent of the total amount.
18 . A toilet seat as in claim 5 wherein said attaching device is fabricated from a polymeric material and photo luminescence material and said photo luminescence material illuminates said attaching device in the absence of light.
19 . A toilet seat as in claim 18 wherein said lid is fabricated from a polymeric material and photo luminescence material and said photo luminescence material illuminates said attaching device in the absence of light.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
