Abstract
A urinal for capturing and directing urine into a drain line. The inventive device includes an adjustable mounting structure securable to a wall surface within a bathroom. A urinal is supported by the adjustable mounting structure and can be positioned at a desired height. A water conduit communicates with a water supply line of a nearby sink or the like to permit selective flushing of the urinal, and a drain conduit communicates with a sink drain line to receive and dispose of the urine and flush water. The device can be readily installed into existing bathroom structures to provide an alternative to a conventional toilet, thereby reducing flushing of the toilet and saving water.
