  • Publication number: 20050005346
    Abstract: A foot actuated toilet seat raising, lowering, and anti-slamming apparatus. Attaching to the wall behind the toilet is a base portion which is flexible so that it may be elevated enough to clean under. Fastened toward the front of the base portion is a decorative case having two sides which support two levers. The back end of the lower lever is pivotally coupled inside of the case while a foot pad is fastened to the front end of the lower lever. The lower lever arm is fastened with a flexible belt to one end of the upper lever arm so that downward force applied to the foot pedal is transferred to the upper lever arm thus causing the upper lever arm to rotate upward. The upper lever is pivotally coupled inside of the case and pivotally coupled to a push rod at the other end. The push rod is adjustable in length and attached at the upper end to a bracket. The bracket attaches to the toilet seat.
