novel device that helps in the prevention of
various bacterial diseases and COVID-19
infection with the help of feet operated toilet
flusher. Conventional toilets which are widely
used in various common places like bus
stands, railway stations, cricket stadiums,
schools, offices, municipalities, etc. have
hand-operated flushing systems such as push
buttons; pull chains, trigger, etc. When such
hand-operated flushing systems are used in
public places there is always a high risk of
various bacterial, hygiene-related diseases
and COVID-19 infection in the present
scenario. Due to fear of diseases, bacterial
infection, COVID-19 infection people avoid to
ON or OFF hand’s operated flush because of
this public toilets remain un-flushed and
dirty, and foul smell starts to spread in the
locality, which causes the problem to people
living in this locality. Hence there is a great
need for low-cost feet operated toilet flusher
which can flush the toilet without any hand
contact and also maintain personal hygiene
and sanitation. The biggest advantage of this
proposed feet push mechanical urinal toilet
