Abstract
A device for assisting in the toilet training. The device includes a bowl for receiving human waste as well as an electrical assembly. The electrical assembly includes two pins extending through the bowl, an elastomeric buffer, two contacts interconnected to a resistance sensor, and a melody generator. The buffer provides a solderless electrical connection between the corresponding pins and contacts. When the electrical resistance between the pins decreases, the resistance sensor detects the decrease in resistance between the two pins and contacts and delivers an activation signal to the melody generator.
