ABSTRACT:
A toilet trip lever assembly which is mountable in a hole in a sidewall of a toilet tank is disclosed. A bearing extends through the hole and has an axial bore therethrough. Retaining means is affixed to the bearing inside the toilet tank to limit the outward movement of the bearing relative to the hole. A stem is journaled within the bearing and has an end which extends into the toilet tank and includes an offset surface. A handle is connected to the outer end of the stem and is operable by a user to rotate the stem. A boom is mounted to pivot in a plane perpendicular to the tank side wall about a pivot post which extends radially from the retaining means. An arm extends from the boom onto the offset surface and an end of the boom is connected to a flush valve. Rotation of the stem and offset surface pivots the boom to flush the toilet.
