Abstract:
An improved toiled system including a urine receptacle with a guide channel is provided, said guide channel having an inlet port that is configured to be positioned closer to the user's point of urination, such that the user may urinate into the inlet port with a greater degree of comfort that a higher percentage of said user's urine will be contained into the urine receptacle. The guide channel is configured to be moved from a retracted to an extended position, said extended position being to allow for use by the user, and said retracted position being to allow for storage of the guide channel out of the way when not being used. In one configuration a toilet with a seat may be used in its conventional manner when said guide channel is in said retracted position. Another significant feature is the use of a return feature, which causes the lid to be in the up position, and the seat in the down position, after use by the user, for the convenience of the next user. When this feature is used with the above retraction/extension position, it solves the issue of a woman wanting the toilet seat down with very little effort to the man because it automatically returns everything to the seated position for a woman simply by the man releasing the handles or foot pedal.
