Concealed wall-mounted folding urinal
A concealed wall-mounted folding urinal (10) has a main body (12) adapted to be mounted on an internal wail of a bathroom or lavatory in a building such as a dwelling. A tray (14) is pivotaliy attached to the main body (12) for movement between a first, standby, position in which the tray (14) abuts the main body portion (12), and a second, ready for use, position in which the tray (14) is ready to receive urine from a male person standing before the urinal (10). An actuator (78) is adapted to pivot the tray (14) between the first position and the second position in response to the output of a sensor (106, 108). When the sensor (106, 108) detects the presence of a person within a predetermined distance of the urinal, the actuator (78) is caused to pivot the tray (14) from the first position to the second position, When the sensor (108, 108) detects the absence of a person within a predetermined distance of the urinal, the actuator (78) is caused to pivot the tray (14) from the second position to the first position, in the first position, the urinal (10) is then flushed with water through a spray nozzle (80).
