ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a bidet apparatus. The apparatus includes a spray pipe pivotally mounted to a toilet. The spray pipe is movable between a retracted position and an in-use position. A spray nozzle is connected to the spray pipe. A crank arm extending outwardly of the spray pipe is positioned to pivot the spray pipe between the retracted and the extended positions. A valve having at least one inlet and a single outlet is mounted to the toilet. The valve is operated between a valve open position and a valve closed position by a single lever handle. A conduit is connected between the outlet of the valve and the spray pipe and a link is connected between the lever handle and the crank arm such that movement of the lever handle to the valve open position pivots the spray pipe to the in-use position.
