ABSTRACT:
A toilet seat and an overlying bidet basin replacing the toilet seat cover. The toilet seat has enlarged inward sloping opposite middle portions for the supportive engagement of the user's thighs and an opening including enlarged front and rear portions and a relatively narrow middle portion. The lack of any support areas in the front and rear portions of the seat in combination with the inwardly sloped configuration of the enlarged opposite middle portions positions the user into a semi-squat position, thighs and buttocks spread apart, legs angled upwardly, body bent forward at the waist, over the middle portion of a toilet bowl. The enlarged front and rear portions of the opening allow the insertion of the hand for blotting and wiping and prevent soiling. The bidet basin is pivoted down over and into the toilet seat and is consisting of a bidet seat portion which overlies the toilet seat and a bidet bowl portion which penetrates and covers the opening of the seat. The bidet seat portion has enlarged opposite middle portions for the support of the user's thighs, the user straddling the bidet basin facing to the rear with the perineum and genitals suspended over the front and middle portion of the bidet bowl portion. The human seat is situated over an enlarged front portion of the bidet seat opening and an enlarged rear portion of the opening is for the insertion of the hands for washing and rinsing purposes.
