Urinal Attachment For Toilet

Abstract

A device for use with toilets introduces urinal functionality to traditional seated toilets. By providing a urinal attachment the need to raise and lower a toilet seat is eliminated, along with many of the corresponding issues that result from different gender preferences for toilet seat positioning. A mount connect a funneling body and a plumbing assembly to the toilet, with the funneling body receiving and channeling urine through the plumbing assembly and into the bowl of the toilet. The funneling body can be rotated and tilted with respect to the plumbing assembly, while the plumbing assembly can be rotated with respect to the mount. The ability to reposition the funneling body results in improved ergonomics as users can adjust the funneling body to better suit their preference. The funneling body can also be retracted to a storage position, allowing the toilet to be used normally in a sitting position.
