Abstract: A toilet includes a water storage tank, a bowl including a waste receiving basin that includes an upper rim and at least one toilet bowl aperture in a side wall of the waste receiving basin, a water supply plenum operable to receive water from the water tank and channel the water to the bowl, a primary drain operable to connect the basin and a sewer pipe, and a secondary drain fluidly operable to connect the toilet bowl aperture to the sewer pipe and operable to drain the water from the bowl. The secondary drain is separate from the primary drain and includes an auxiliary aperture fluidly connecting the secondary drain to the water supply plenum and operable to drain the water from the plenum. The toilet bowl aperture and the auxiliary aperture are operable to permit the water to bypass the primary drain when the primary drain is clogged.

Abstract: Problem:Provided is a flush toilet capable of increasing the volume of a waste conveyance flow, thereby improving a waste conveyance capability.Solution:The flush toilet includes: a toilet main unit (2) comprising a discharge conduit (16) communicated with the discharge trap pipe. The discharge conduit includes a flow dividing section (26) provided on a downstream side of an upstream discharge conduit section, and a delaying flow passage (28) branched from the flow dividing section. An inward region of the skirt portion includes: a central region (D) and a lateral region (E). The delaying flow passage (28) forms a passage in the lateral region (E) and merges leading flush water having flowed into the delaying flow passage from the flow dividing section (26) with a flush water flow reaching the flow dividing section at a timing after the inflow of the flush water to the delaying flow passage.

Abstract: A toilet having an outlet trapway that is movable during a flushing cycle includes a toilet bowl having an opening adjacent its lower end and a conduit linked to the opening so as to be able to swivel between a first upwardly directed position which forms a trap for the toilet, and a second less upwardly directed position which can be reached during the flushing cycle to facilitate evacuation of the toilet bowl. The toilet further includes an actuator that moves the conduit between the first and second positions during the flushing cycle in response to a condition of a water supply for the toilet. The water supply comprises a water tank, and the condition of the water supply is a level of water in the water tank.

Abstract: A float rise speed control tank in a flush toilet is formed so that when the flush water level inside a flush water tank rises and the flush water level reaches a window due to supply of flush water into the flush water tank by a water supply device, the inflow into the float rise speed control tank by flush water in the flush water tank from a window formed above the bottom edge part of the float causes the rise speed of the flush water level in the float rise speed control tank to increase more than the rise speed of the flush water in the flush water tank.
