ABSTRACT:
To eliminate the necessity of a water tank, this invention converts the traditional toilet bowl with siphonic water trap into a toilet basin with a tilting-bowl. The toilet includes a frame, a toilet basin, a tilting bowl and a trigger means. The tilting bowl is mounted to pivot as a movable water/waste container. In its not tilted horizontal position, the tilting bowl receives and holds water/waste delivered to it through the toilet basin. When the tilting bowl tilts, it discharges its content to drainage pipe through a bottom discharge hole; simultaneously allowing water/waste to discharge from basin to drainage. The tilting bowl is normally retarded to stay in its horizontal position by forces applied to the tilting bowl creating a resultant retarding turning moment about its pivot point larger than the turning moment produced by the tilting bowl with its content. The trigger means serves to remove or reduce the retarding turning moment, allowing the tilting bowl to tilt to discharge water/waste to outside the toilet.
