H20 Lift Toilet Seat Lifter

Abstract

The invention provides a foot operated toilet seat lifter which may be easily installed on a toilet. The universal bracket with a retained cylinder and piston is mounted to the toilet bowl by using the existing toilet seat fasteners. The toilet seat lifter is activated by applying foot pressure to the foot pedal, which in turn opens a valve to supply water pressure from the existing toilet water supply to the cylinder and piston.
