ABSTRACT:
An easily removable and attachable toilet seat connector and method is disclosed herein. The device of the present invention comprises a threaded bolt and a nut which is threadable thereto. The threaded bolt has an axially extending aperture. A pin fits within the axially extending aperture of the threaded bolt. The radius of the pin is expandable, thereby securing the pin to a toilet seat mounting bracket, the mounting bracket having a bracket hole extending therethrough to accept the pin. The pin also has a threaded aperture axially extending therein, and a screw is threadable with the threaded aperture of the pin to provide radial expansion of the pin. The method for attaching a toilet seat to a toilet bowl basin first comprises inserting the threaded bolt into a toilet bowl basin hole and threading a nut to said threaded bolt. Thereafter, the radially expandable pin is inserted into a bracket hole of a toilet seat mounting bracket. The radius of the pin is expanded to secure the pin to the toilet seat. Finally, the pin is inserted into the aperture of the threaded bolt, thereby securing the toilet seat to the toilet bowl basin.
