  • Patent number: 8091155
    Abstract: A seat lifting system includes a toilet and a seat and a lid, which are hingedly coupled together by a hinge and secured to the toilet so that each of the seat and lid are positionable in lifted position or lowered position relative to the toilet. A pivot bar is rotatably coupled to the seat and the lid adjacent to the hinge. A lifting arm is coupled to a first end of the pivot bar. The lifting arm extends outwardly from the pivot bar and engages a bottom face of the seat. The lifting arm lifts the seat when the pivot bar is rotated. A lifting assembly is coupled to the pivot bar and is actuated to rotate the pivot bar to lift the seat of the toilet. The lifting assembly is actuated again to rotate the pivot bar to lower the seat of the toilet.
