ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for lowering the seat or seat and lid of a flush toilet in response to the flushing of the toilet, including an impulse converter which is connected to a discharge pipe or port of the float valve of the toilet and serves to convert the water impulses resulting from the flushing of the toilet to air impulses for inflating a bladder which is positioned to impel the seat or seat and lid of the toilet out of the stable upright position when inflated. In particular versions of the disclosed apparatus the bladder is mounted between the front wall of the flush tank and the raised lid of the toilet and the air impulses are conveyed from the impulse converter located in the flush tank to the bladder by means of a tube which passes between the lid of the flush tank and the upper edge of the front wall of the flush tank.
