    Abstract: A stowable urinal for installation in a vehicle passenger compartment, such as a sleeper compartment of a truck tractor includes a cabinet housing a cleaning fluid reservoir, a pump, a spring-loaded spindle on which hose is wound and a funnel connected to the hose. The funnel is stowed with one face on the outside of the cabinet allowing the funnel to be removed from the cabinet to a position where it is conveniently used by a man to urinate. The hose is attached to a spindle, which is spring loaded and which rotates to wind the hose on the spindle when the funnel is returned to its stowed position on the cabinet. The cleaning fluid reservoir and pump provide for the delivery of cleaning fluid to the stowed funnel for cleaning.
