Description:
FIELD OF INVENTION 
     This invention relates generally to a bowl with attachments for washing lower parts of the body, feet, and administering an anema. The construction of the bowl is modified to make it convenient to use and to insure that the bowl always stays cleans automatically. 
     DESCRIPTION OF THE PRIOR ART 
     For sanitary cleansing of the lower parts of the body the apparatus called &#34;bidet&#34; is used, and, even though, the apparatus meets the expectations put upon it, bidet requires additional space and expenses. There are combinations of bowl and bidet on the market now, however, the structures are too complex and, therefore, require considerable time and effort to assemble and use. Consequently, the functions such as, device to administer enemas and personal hygiene in home use do not exist, as a permanent attachments. 
     OBJECTS 
     Bathrooms in United States are not designed for installation of bidet in addition to the toilet bowl; therefore, even if someone is willing to spend a great deal of money to have the apparatus installed the space shortage in the bathroom will not permit that installation in most cases. 
    
    
     The proposed invention of the toilet bowl which washes, successfully solves this and other problems, since it is a toilet bowl and bidet in one. The combination which can save money and valuable space in the bathroom. To additional advantages of the invention belongs the option of using the apparatus for personal hygiene without the necessity to fully undress. Further objects or advantages of the invention will become apparent from consideration of the drawings and ensuing description thereof.

     DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS 
     A bowl unit in accordance with the present invention has a bowl which is identified with reference numeral 1. The bowl 1 has a rim which is considerably wider than the remaining portion of the bowl and than the rims of the existing bowls. The rim is provided with a slant or bevel as identified by 10. The bowl also has a deep concave bottom 11 which is deeper than the bottoms of the existing bowls. 
     A seat cover 2 with an opening in its central part is pivotable so as to be located on the bowl during use and withdrawn from the bowl during non-use. A closing seat cover 3 closes and open the bowl 1. A water dispensing pipe 4 is located in the front region of the bowl 1 and in the interior of the same. It is provided with cold and hot water regulators which are identified with reference numeral 5. Metal pipes 6 which supply cold and hot water from the source of the same extend from the rear region of the bowl 1 to its front region and are connected there with the dispensing pipe 4. An ending pipe 7 connects the pipes 6 to a plumbing system. The pipes 6 are attached to the bowl by a fastening device 8. 
     The bowl is provided with a plastic screen for washing of feet as identified by 9. It is removable, and when in use is supported on the rim of the bowl and on a water dispensing pipe 4 as will be described in detail later herein. The water outlet element can be formed as a nozzle 13. A hinge 12 is threadingly connected with the water dispensing pipe 4, and the nozzle 13 is threadingly connected with the hinge 12. The nozzle 13 and the hinge 12 are located in the front region of the bowl 1 inside the latter. A flow control foot pedal 14 is also arranged in the front region of the bowl 1. It is fixable in three positions by a three level bolt 15. 
     OPERATION 
     The use of the suggested apparatus as a toilet bowl presents no question and it is used as any conventional bowl, we all so familiar with. However, the seat cover in front is somewhat widened and does not reach the out-side rim of the bowl, which is specifically designed for washing the lower parts of the body. 
     Furthermore, when used as a cleansing apparatus, the seat cover (2) comes up to a vertical position. Thereafter, a person seats on the rim of the bowl (1) where rim is angeled as shown in (10)--which permits a person sit on rim as if on the regular bidet. 
     The design and the size of the apparatus permits the person to sit with the back resting on the seat covers (2,3). In this position it is easy to turn the knobs (5) which regulate the supply of the cold and hot water, until the desirable temperature is reached, through the pipe (4) which has threading for attachment of the shower screen, extention pipe (with interchangeable heads), rubber hose, and also hinge (12) for regulating the direction of the water spurt. It is also possible to operate the apparatus in question, by the flow control pedal (14) provided that the water temperature is preadjusted to a desirable level. 
     Furthermore, when the apparatus used to wash feet, or person simply, does not wish to keep his or her foot on the pedal, the bolt (15) could be used, as shown in FIG. 2, and the device will operate automatically at the pre-set water pressure and temperature. 
     Cleansing of the lower parts of the body is done with use of hands. To insure that the apparatus always stays clean, the bottom (11) of the bowl is situated below the water supplying pipe (4) which is deeper than in the standard bowls. The depth in the combination with the design of the bowl insures that unit cleans itself every time it is used as a bidet. 
     In addition to the above uses of the apparatus the design permits washing of the feet as shown in FIG. 6, 7, 8. with the use of portable plastic or light metal screen (9). The screen (9) lies on water pipe (4) with one side and on the rim of the bowl with other sides. 
     While the above description contains many specificities, these should not be construed as a limitations on the scope of the invention, but rather as an exemplification of one preferred embodiment thereof. Many other variations are possible. Accordingly, the scope of the invention should be determined not by the embodiment illustrated, but the appended claims and their legal equivalents.
