Hinge for toilet seat

Abstract From the Canadian patent

A composite hinge for a toilet seat comprises three leaves namely, a bowl leaf, a seat leaf and a lid leaf. The three leaves are assembled into a unit by snap fitting the individual pieces together in interlocking manner. The assembled hinge is then adapted to be secured to the underside of the lid and to the underside of the seat ring by snap fitting the respective leaves into expandible holes in the seat ring and lid. The seat and lid leaves are provided with studs with enlarged frusto-conical heads which are adapted to pass through the expandible holes which, after passage, contract to capture the studs.
