Incineration toilet with safety system

An incineration toilet comprising:

• a pouch bowl for holding a waste pouch, and
• an incineration chamber with an incineration chamber hatch arranged below the pouch bowl for receiving the waste pouch for incineration, the incineration chamber hatch being openable by an electric motor,
• wherein the pouch bowl comprises an openable bowl flap synchronized with the openable incineration chamber hatch such that when the electric motor opens the incineration chamber hatch, the bowl flap opens simultaneously such that the waste pouch can fall into the incineration chamber,
• the incineration toilet further comprises a lid for covering a top opening of the pouch bowl, the lid is operable between an open position in which the top opening of the pouch bowl is open and can receive waste, and a closed position in which the top opening is closed and cannot receive waste,
• wherein the incineration toilet further comprises a security system comprising:
• a security control system, and
• one or more sensors,
• wherein the one or more sensors are arranged for reading the position of the lid and for measuring the temperature in the incineration chamber;
• wherein the security control system controls the electric motor such that the incineration chamber hatch is prevented from being opened when the temperature in the incineration chamber is above a threshold value and the lid is in the open position,
• wherein the one or more sensors is an inductive sensor arranged for reading the position of the lid,
• wherein the inductive sensor is located below the toilet seat and arranged to detect a magnet situated in the lid to read the position of the lid,
• wherein, in the event the inductive sensor detects the magnet, information that the lid is in the closed position is sent to the control system, wherein the control system further allows the electric motor to run such that the incineration chamber hatch and the pouch bowl flap can be opened,
• wherein, in the event the inductive sensor detects no magnet, information that the lid is in the open position is sent to the control system and the electric motor is not allowed to start.
