Abstract
A device for attaching a toilet seat (4, Fig.2) to a toilet, comprising an expandable plug 3 cable of insertion into holes (A1, B1, Fig.3) within a toilet bowl, and a bolt 2 with a handle 1 to screw into the plug. The device may be formed of metal, plastic or rubber.
Description
EPD are attached to a standard toilet seat at points (A) and (B) (See Fig 2) therefore transforming it into the LIDIA, quick, clean, easy toilet seat.
The toilet seat is placed onto the toilet bowl in the fitting position and is then attached to the toilet by inserting both EPD into the toilet bowl holes at points (Al) and (Bl) (See Fig 3).
Each EPD key is then twisted clockwise to hold and tighten the toilet seat to the toilet bowl in the fitting position.
The toilet seat is detached from the toilet bowl by twisting each EPD key anticlockwise to loosen the toilet seat while in the fitting position then they can be easily pulled out of points (Al) and (Bl) (See Fig 3).
Fig 4 shows the LIDIA, quick, clean, easy toilet seat attached to a toilet. When attached it is safe, stable and secure and it is not affected by wear and tear because it can be easily tightened over time to reinforce it as if it was newly fitted.
Claims (10)
1. The Expansion Plug Device (EPD) is made of metal, plastic or rubber and works like a Rawlplug.
2. 2 EPD are attached to a toilet seat transforming it into the LIDIA, quick, clean, easy toilet seat.

5. The toilet seat is a standard toilet seat that can be made with wood or plastic and come in all colours and designs.
6. The toilet seat can be moulded to fit all types of toilets.
7. EPD works like a Rawlplug filling the toilet bowl holes twist clockwise to tighten then anti clockwise to loosen.
8. EPD reduces the time taken to fit the toilet seat.
