Bidet assembly for toilets

Abstract

A bidet assembly for toilets comprising a non-permanent mounting means, such as a “C” clamp device and a long stiff wedging member with spring-back property, one or more nozzles mounted inside a toilet bowl under the rim lip, and a water supply tube that connects directly to the bowl refill nipple on a ballcock. Said multi-parts bidet assembly forms one integral tubing unit. Said bidet assembly can be mounted or removed, without tools, in 2 minutes or less and leaves no mar or damage on a toilet. Said bidet assembly is hidden from view, provides clean water for cleansing a user's private parts during the refill cycle and keeps water from splashing out of a toilet, and has no moving parts or controls of any kind to manipulate. Said bidet assembly can retrofit toilets of any size and shape and can be fabricated from commonly available merchandise.
