ABSTRACT:
A hinge assembly for adjustably mounting a toilet covering member to the rear of a toilet is disclosed. In one form, a hinge block has a compartment with serrations to adjustably receive a bushing with complementary serrations. A mounting bolt is placed through an opening in the hinge block and the bushing for engagement with a nut to secure the hinge assembly to the toilet. In one embodiment, the hinge block supports opposing hinge brackets for the toilet covering member with the hinge pin trapped by the mounting of one of the brackets. In an especially preferred form, the hinge assembly is employed with a cover and a toilet having matching curved front portions.
