Abstract

A luminescent toilet seat assembly for rendering a toilet visible at night includes a toilet seat that is hingedly mountable to a toilet. The toilet seat is comprised of a resiliently compressible material to enhance comfort for a user sitting on the toilet seat. The toilet seat is comprised of a luminescent material such that the toilet seat is visible at night. A toilet lid is hingedly coupled to the toilet seat and the toilet lid is comprised of a luminescent material. Thus, the toilet lid is visible in at night. Additionally, the toilet lid is comprised of a resiliently compressible material.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
I claim: 
     
         1 . A luminescent toilet seat assembly being configured to render a toilet visible in a darkened environment, said assembly comprising:
 a toilet seat being hingedly mountable to a toilet, said toilet seat being comprised of a resiliently compressible material wherein said toilet seat is configured to enhance comfort for a user sitting on said toilet seat, said toilet seat being comprised of a luminescent material wherein said toilet seat is configured to be visible at night; and   a toilet lid being hingedly coupled to said toilet seat, said toilet lid being comprised of a luminescent material wherein said toilet lid is configured to be visible in at night, said toilet lid being comprised of a resiliently compressible material.   
     
     
         2 . The assembly according to  claim 1 , wherein said toilet seat has a lower surface, an upper surface and a rear edge, said rear edge being hingedly coupled to a bowl of a toilet, said lower surface resting on a top of the bowl when said toilet seat is lowered. 
     
     
         3 . The assembly according to  claim 2 , wherein said toilet lid has a bottom surface and a back edge, said back edge being hingedly coupled to said rear edge of said toilet seat, said bottom surface resting on said upper surface of said toilet seat when said lid is in a closed position. 
     
     
         4 . The assembly according to  claim 1 , wherein said toilet lid has a bottom surface, said bottom surface having a central portion, an outer threshold of said central portion being spaced inwardly from a perimeter edge of said toilet lid, said central portion being comprised of a non luminescent material. 
     
     
         5 . A luminescent toilet seat assembly being configured to render a toilet visible in a darkened environment, said assembly comprising:
 a toilet seat being hingedly mountable to a toilet, said toilet seat being comprised of a resiliently compressible material wherein said toilet seat is configured to enhance comfort for a user sitting on said toilet seat, said toilet seat being comprised of a luminescent material wherein said toilet seat is configured to be visible at night, said toilet seat having a lower surface, an upper surface and a rear edge, said rear edge being hingedly coupled to a bowl of a toilet, said lower surface resting on a top of the bowl when said toilet seat is lowered; and   a toilet lid being hingedly coupled to said toilet seat, said toilet lid being comprised of a luminescent material wherein said toilet lid is configured to be visible in at night, said toilet lid being comprised of a resiliently compressible material, said toilet lid having a bottom surface and a back edge, said back edge being hingedly coupled to said rear edge of said toilet seat, said bottom surface resting on said upper surface of said toilet seat when said lid is in a closed position, said bottom surface having a central portion, an outer threshold of said central portion being spaced inwardly from a perimeter edge of said toilet lid, said central portion being comprised of a non luminescent material.   
     
     
         6 . A method of rendering a toilet visible at night, the steps of the method comprising:
 providing a toilet seat being comprised of a luminescent material wherein said toilet seat is configured to be visible at night;   mounting said toilet seat to a toilet wherein said toilet seat is configured to render the toilet visible at night;   providing a toilet lid being comprised of a luminescent material; and   mounting said toilet lid on said toilet seat wherein said toilet lid is configured to render the toilet visible at night.
