Abstract
An adjustable toilet seat handle including a clamping assembly, a spring member, and a knob is provided. The clamping assembly having a first clamp and a second clamp is removably connected to an undersurface of a toilet seat. A spring member connects the first clamp to the second clamp for defining a receptacle that compression fits the undersurface of the toilet seat. The spring member is operably connected to a lower surface of the clamping assembly and extends a distance between the first clamp and the second clamp to allow the undersurface of the toilet seat to be compression fitted in the receptacle. The knob is rigidly attached to and extends outwardly from the first clamp and can be gripped by a user to allow the user to raise or lower the toilet seat without direct contact with the toilet seat.
