Claim 12:
13. The toilet of claim 1, further comprising a flushing rod, a channel, and a flush tube, the flushing rod attached to a flapper configured to seal an opening in a bottom portion of the tank housing, the flushing rod having a reduced-diameter section and a spring latch, the spring latch having a shoulder and a forked portion, the flush tube configured to move in an upward direction during a flushing process causing the flush rod to lift the flapper from the opening to allow water to escape from the tank housing;
wherein, when moved in the upward direction, the flush tube contacts the shoulder of the spring latch causing the forked portion of the spring latch to move toward a central axis of the flushing rod; and
wherein moving the forked portion toward the central axis of the flushing rod causes the shoulder of the spring latch to drop down into an interior of the flush tube and further causes the flushing rod to allow the flapper to drop down into the opening of the tank housing to seal the opening.
