Description:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     This invention relates to a portable and collapsible toilet for babies. 
     A small child usually cannot control his defecation or urination, and this is especially troublesome when there is no toilet around or when he is on a trip. In view of this, it is necessary to develop a portable and collapsible toilet for children under 5 years old. 
     SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
     According to this invention, the toilet comprises a toilet bowl which serves also as a cover, a basal part and a handle. The toilet bowl has an outlet shaped like a short pipe, protruding downwardly from its bottom, the pipe outlet being designed to be inserted into a hole on the top of the basal part. The bowl is shaped like a regular toilet bowl and, when it is inverted, it fits perfectly onto said basal part which is a flattened U shaped body with two axially aligned holes provided on its upper and lower portions. When the inverted toilet bowl is fitted onto the basal part, the pipe outlet and said two holes are aligned axially and a L-shaped handle can pass through them with its lower end engaged with the threaded hole at the bottom of said basal part and its upper end used as a handle bar for carrying the whole toilet. On the left side of said basal part, there is a long horizontal hole bored through its lower portion, and throaded at the inner end. The threaded end of the handle can be inserted into the long hole and engages its threaded end to serve as a handle for carrying the toilet. 
     The features and objects of the present invention will be apparent from the following description with reference to the accompanying drawings.

     DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS 
     FIG. 1 is an exploded views of the baby toilet. The toilet bowl 11 has a rim whose central part 22 is depressed for a child to easily sit on it. At the bottom of the bowl there is a pipe outlet 12 protruding outwardly and downwardly for fitting into the hole 14 on the upper portion 13 of the toilet&#39;s basal part which has a flat bottom 15. There is a U shaped recess 16 between the upper and the lower portion of the basal part. A threaded hole 17 on the bottom portion aligns axially with a hole 14 on the upper portion 13. On the left side of the flattened U shaped basal part, there is a long hole 18 which is threaded at its inner end to engage the threaded end of a handle 19 which is used to carry the toilet. 
     In FIG. 3, the open end of a plastic bag 20 is pushed through the hole 14 to cover its adjacent margin and is secured to the basal part by a hollow stopper 21. Said plastic bag 20 is provided to receive excretion and urine. 
     FIG. 2 shows how the toilet bowl 11 is combined with the basal part and how the handle 19 is inserted through the outlet 12, hole 14, and hole 17 to be used as a handle for carrying the toilet. 
     To use the toilet, first fix the handle 19 in the hole 18 with the handle segment standing upright, then push the open end of a plastic bag upwardly through the hole 14 and insert the outlet 12 into the plastic bag 20 and the hole 14 so that the bag 20 is positioned and ready for use. The lower part of said bag 20 rests in said U shaped recess 16 to receive urine and excretion. After defecation or urination, the upper end of said bag 20 can be tied with a thread or a rubber band for disposal. 
     Referring to FIG. 3, the open end of the bag 20 is sandwiched circumferencially between the hole 14 and a hollow stopper 21 inserted into the hole, and the outlet of the toilet bowl is loaded into the hollow stopper. 
     To pack up the toilet, the bowl 11 should be cleaned and the handle 19 removed from the hole 18 so that the toilet bowl 11 may be inverted for fitting onto the basal part. The handle 19 is then pushed through the outlet 12, the hole 14 and the hole 17 and screwed to engage the threaded hole 17. The handle is used to carry the toilet. 
     Various changes may be made in the construction of the toilet without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
