Abstract

An assembly havng a retractable toilet bowl incorporates conduit means in the bowl trunnion for delivering water to the toilet bowl via pipes on its underside. The trunnion conduit means incorporates a Sloan valve of standard commerical type to provide advantageous wetting and flushing flow control while providing safeguards against flooding and inadequate sewer gas trap level. The wetting control extends the range of wetness and facilitates cleaning operations. Right and left hand installations, using the same parts, are enabled. Other features as in models currently marketed remain readily incorporatable.
