A toilet configuration that is connectable to a sewer drainage pipe is provided. The toilet configuration includes a water storage tank, a ceramic toilet body including a toilet bowl, and a water supply plenum operable to receive water from the water storage tank and channel the water to the toilet bowl. The toilet configuration further includes a primary drain operable to fluidly connect the waste receiving basin and the sewer drainage pipe and at least one footrest formed unitarily with an outer surface of the ceramic toilet body. The footrest is operable to aid a user in elevating at least one knee while the user is seated upon the toilet configuration.

Anti-overflow toilet

A toilet configuration includes a toilet fixture, a detachable primary drain, and a detachable secondary drain. The primary and secondary drains can be assembled together or formed unitarily. The fixture includes a toilet bowl, a primary drain interface at a bottom of the bowl configured to permit liquid to flow from the toilet bowl into a detachable primary drain, and a secondary drain hole. The detachable primary drain fluidly is connected to the primary drain interface and is configured to be fluidly connected to a sewer pipe to discharge the liquid directly into the sewer pipe. A detachable secondary drain fluidly is connected to the secondary drain hole and is configured to be fluidly connected to the sewer pipe to discharge backed up fluid from the toilet fixture directly into the sewer pipe.

Anti-overflow toilet with detachable primary and secondary drain tubes

A toilet fixture includes a bowl, a primary drain fluidly connects said basin and said sewer drainage pipe, and a supply water plenum. The fixture further includes a secondary drain fluidly connecting said supply water plenum to said sewer drainage pipe. The secondary drain is separate from said primary drain and includes inlet means that are disposed within said supply water plenum and include at least one unshielded secondary drain hole in a lower half of the plenum. The secondary drain further includes a second drain channel. The secondary drain further includes a second drain outlet that is in fluid communication with said second drain channel, whereby said inlet means permits rising waste water to flow from said supply water plenum into said second drain channel and out of said second drain outlet to said sewer drainage pipe separately from the primary drain.

Anti-overflow toilet and method

A toilet fixture includes a bowl, a primary drain fluidly connected to the bowl, a supply water plenum providing water to the bowl to flush the fixture, and a secondary drain inlet located to the plenum. The secondary drain inlet includes a secondary drain hole permitting water to flow from the plenum into the secondary drain inlet. The secondary drain inlet is fluidly connected to a drain permitting water to exit the fixture and water flowing through the secondary drain inlet can bypass a clog in the primary drain.
