Abstract
A toilet aid comprises a rear fixing bracket for mounting on a WC pan using the normal seat attachment bolt holes of the latter. Side support legs and side support arms are mounted on the bracket, the support leg and arm at each side of the toilet aid being secured to a corresponding end lug of the fixing bracket by a common pivot bolt. The two pivot bolts are aligned to define a common horizontal pivot axis for separate pivotal movement of the legs and the arms, with the former contacting the floor more or less directly below handgrips provided at the outer ends of the respective side support arms. The inner ends of the arms respectively engage the legs below the pivot axis to provide a reaction support for weight loading of the support arms.
