Abstract

The mechanism is a powered toilet seat lift that attaches to the side lip of a toilet and lifts the seat without modification to the toilet or seat. It consists of an attachment bracket, a linear actuator, a battery, and a remote control transmitter. An alternative to the linear actuator is a rotary actuator that pushes up the seat as it rotates from the front of the toilet to the back. An alternative to the battery is a cord connecting to the building electrical power supply.
