ABSTRACT:
A toilet seat actuator for automatically lowering a toilet seat in response to the movement of the flush handle of the toilet. The inventive device includes a dampener assembly coupled to both the base of the toilet and the toilet seat. A pull chain extends between the flush handle and the dampener assembly such that actuation of the flush handle rotates the dampener to initiate lowering of the seat, whereby gravity effects complete lowering of the seat against the friction of the dampener.
