A toilet seat adapted to be fixed to a toilet bowl the seat accommodating a conduit adapted to be connected to a water supply, the conduit being connected to an outlet nozzle which is supported from an arm supported from the seat such that the nozzle is to be located within the toilet bowl and is directed upwardly, the nozzle being movable along a path within the toilet bowl which is substantially coincidental with a fore and aft axis of the toilet bowl and being movable from a first position adjacent the wall of the toilet bowl to a second position where the nozzle lies in the path, a drive mechanism to cause movement of the arm, the seat accommodating an air duct adapted to be connected to a forced air supply, the air duct having an outlet at the front and rear of the toilet seat, the outlets being positioned to direct air to the posterior and anterior region of the occupant's body encompassed by the toilet seat, a control mechanism controlling the delivery of water the delivery of air and the operation of the drive mechanism, the arm being moved to cause the nozzle to move along the path to one or more locations, at which locations the arm is caused to move the nozzle through a small range of movements along the path, the control mechanism causing the delivery of water to the nozzle and subsequently the control mechanism further causing the delivery of air to the duct.
A toilet seat adapted to be fixed to a toilet bowl to be movable between a seating position overlying the toilet bowl and a raised position, said seat accommodating a conduit adapted to be connected to a water supply, said conduit being connected to an outlet nozzle which is supported from an arm supported from the seat such that the nozzle is to be located within the toilet bowl and is directed upwardly, the arm being supported from the toilet seat to be movable to cause the nozzle to be movable along a path within the toilet bowl which is substantially coincidental with a fore and aft axis of the toilet bowl, the arm also being supported from the toilet seat to cause the nozzle to be movable from a first position adjacent a wall of the toilet bowl to a second position where the nozzle lies in the path, drive means to cause said movement of the arm, said seat accommodating an air duct adapted to be connected to a forced air supply, said air duct having an outlet at a front and rear of the toilet seat, said outlets being positioned to direct air to the posterior and anterior region of the occupant's body encompassed by the toilet seat, a control means controlling the delivery of water, the delivery of air and the operation of the drive means, said arm being movable on activation by the drive means from the first position to the second position, said arm being then moved to cause the nozzle to move along the path to at least one location at which location the arm is caused to move the nozzle through a small range of movement along the path at each location, the control means causing the delivery of water to the nozzle at said positions, the control means further causing the delivery of air to the duct subsequent to the delivery of water to the nozzle.
