ABSTRACT:
An automatically concealed urinal housed in a cabinet which can be mounted on the wall, semi- or fully recessed in the wall or located under counter or in another suitable location. The urinal becomes operative when a person stands in front of urinal at a distance of one or more feet, which action activates the sensor placed in the wall above the cabinet, simultaneously causing the door or doors to open on the cabinet and the urinal bowl which is on a support structure will tilt forward at an approximate angle of 15.degree., more or less, at which time the flushing fluid is directed to the urinal bowl by a hydraulic actuator, thoroughly flushing bowl interior as long as bowl is in use. Waste fluid along with flushing fluid will follow a preferred path through support structure to the sewer connection. Urinal will return to cabinet with doors closing automatically when individual steps away from predetermined position. Urinal can also be manually positioned and preset in a fixed position. Adjustment means permits lowering or raising upper support section, if necessary.
