  • Patent number: 9854949
    Abstract: A toilet. The toilet comprises an upper bowl defining a first fecal aperture, a lower bowl defining a second fecal aperture, a urine receptacle and a feces receptacle. The upper bowl defines a urine aperture. A raised barrier extends upwardly around a periphery of the second fecal aperture. When a diverter panel is closed urine flows from the upper bowl through the urine aperture into the urine receptacle or urine flows through the first fecal aperture, strikes an upper surface of the diverter panel, and through an opening between a lower surface of the upper bowl and the upper surface of the diverter panel into the urine receptacle. In a third path when the diverter panel is opened urine flows through the urine aperture into the urine receptacle, the raised barrier prevents urine flow into the feces receptacle through the second fecal aperture.
