| | | Posted by logtec OK, time to add to the confusion, this fixture was in a small room just off the main room(from the last pic), the small room was almost like a janitors closet, but it wasn't nor would it have been a washroom cuz there was no hand basin! what is it? Its NOT a toilet, theres no seat and as you were getting up or down you would have scrapped the skin off your back on the spout of the faucet! it was about 2' x 2' square, had a 3" drain, there was a faucet mounted to the wall along with a hose and spray nossel. the flushometre or the flush-valve, would have flushed water directly to the rim of the fixture. what would this have been used for?

I agree with Dallient Climber in that it appears to be a bed pan wash sink/hopper. I work in a state hospital (a more modern one), and I remember sinks very similar to this one being used in the older buildings, of which most are now gone. They were used for emptying and rinsing of urinals, bedpans, and other generally nasty stuff. It was common to have them in very small "janitor like" closets where they were out of sight and didn't get the odors emanating into the rooms or common halls were patients and visitors may be. The place I work at now even has something very similar, although more modern in appearance.

That actually reminds me of a "squatter toilet." People in the West don't tend to be too familiar with them, but in most Eastern Asian countries (especially Japan and China), they tend to have signs that differentiate between toilets for "Squatters" (that is, a toilet you never actually touch; you do just what the name implies over it) and "Sitters" (the common kind of western toilet that you sit down on). Squatter toilets are an effort to decrease bacteria spread in toilets with high public use. Makes sense for a sanitarium if you ask me. Here's a pic showing one of the rare "Sitter" toilet stalls that exist in Southeast Asia. The sign is necessary to tell people not to squat over it; it is intended to be sat upon. http://picasaweb.g...029042340735429906 And here's a Chinese squatter toilet. http://www.flickr....luobote/157841901/
Oh, I'm sick of doing Japanese things. In jail they made us be in this dumb Kabuki play about the Forty Seven Ronin, and I wanted to be Oshi, but they made me Ori! |

| | | Posted by turbozutek I could believe that you could perform a wet-pack here*, but (in the UK at least) we stopped practising that pointless branch of water torture in the 1950's...

describe a "wet pack" please?
