  • Patent number: 6314591
    Abstract: The present invention 10 discloses a toilet for venting 30 malodorous odors by providing one or more air indraft members 32 connected to conduit 36 leading to an exhaust fan or air purification unit, the toilet 22 also preventing cascading water 12 over the rim 20 area caused by clogged passageways within the toilet by having a forwardly located depression 12 acting as a spill way to direct the overflow in one direction thereby reducing the scope of contamination to one area instead of over the toilet bowl exterior surface and surrounding walls. The toilet 22 further has toilet paper holders 24 oppositely opposed to each other molded into the exterior bowl surface providing a consistent location for those people who are visually and physically challenged. Alternative designs are provided for the venting arrangement including air indraft ports 30, air indraft members 32, and multiple apertures 64 connected to an air channel 68 in the rim 20.
