Abstract

A lavatory system is disclosed. The lavatory system comprises a base, a commode having a front and a rear coupled to the base and movable relative to the base between a deployed position and a stowed position, a first projection engaged between the base and the commode, and a first member adjacent the front and coupled to the projection so that the commode can be disengaged from the base. An apparatus for a lavatory system is also disclosed. The lavatory system has a commode with a front and a rear coupled to a base and configured to pivot between a deployed position and a stowed position, and a detent engaged between the commode and the base. The apparatus comprises a member adjacent the front of the commode and operatively coupled to the detent, the member configured to disengage the commode from the base by actuation of the detent so that the commode can be moved from the deployed position toward the stowed position.
