MUMBAI, India, Oct. 26 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611106974 A) filed by Chandigarh University on September 05, 2026, for Smart Foldable Toilet Unit Comprising Motorized Actuation And Flexible Non-Clogging Waste Conduit.

Inventor includes Kush Kumar.

The application for the patent was published on October 23, 2026, under issue no. 43/2026.

Abstract: A smart hybrid toilet system comprises a wall-mounted housing unit (102), a movable commode seat assembly (103), a motorized linear actuator (106), telescopic support legs (104), a flexible silicone bellows waste conduit (107), and a control unit (201). The commode seat assembly (103) moves between a deployed Western commode position and a folded position providing access to an Indian squatting pan. The telescopic support legs (104) extend to the floor during deployment, while the flexible silicone bellows waste conduit (107) expands and contracts with movement of the commode seat assembly (103) to maintain a waste-flow connection. The control unit (201) receives user commands and sensor feedback for controlling actuation and operating sequence. A sanitization module comprising a high-pressure jet spray (211) and UV-C sterilizer (212) cleans and sanitizes the commode seat assembly (103) during retraction into the wall-mounted housing unit (102).
