A frustum-shaped toilet bowl (26) includes a reversibly rotable saucer-shaped seal (46), or saucer. The saucer can automatically be rotated upward hermetically to compress closed against a sealing ring (48) that surrounds the outside of the bowl near its bottom outlet (32). The saucer is normally closed to prevent sewer gases from entering a bathroom from an adjoining drain line (36). The closed saucer can retain human waste or test balls in the bowl or, when opened, permits them to free-fall of their own weight into the drain line. The bowl has opposing water outlets (42) which are connected to flushometer valve (34), which is connected to a source of pressurized water. Depressing a button (74) automatically provides a wet spot in the bowl to prevent falling feces from sticking to the bowl. Depressing the button a second time opens the saucer and causes additional water to stagger flush solids while they are moving in the pipe. A two-stage staggered flush propels solids further than releasing the wet spot water and the additional water into the pipe together. A urine flush uses about 250 ml (0.25) gallons and a feces flush about 4.0 liters (1.0 gallon) of water. A 2.00 to 3.00-liter (0.50- to 0.75-gallon) flush carries 100 test balls about 18.2 meters (60 feet) in the drain line.

The invention relates to a flying saucer type helicopter utilizing active airflow to generate lifting power. As everyone knows, the asymmetric airflow on the upper surfaces and lower surfaces of wings can generate lifting power, however for both a fixed wing aircraft and a propeller-driven aircraft, the wings move, the air is motionless, and airflow is passively generated. According to the invention, an opposite approach is chosen. Specifically, the wings are fixed, actively generated airflow flows through the upper surfaces of the wings, an air pressure difference is manufactured between the upper surfaces and lower surfaces of the wings so as to generate the lifting power, thus realizing a safe and simple aircraft that can achieve vertical take-off and landing, hovering, level flight and pivot steering. The appearance of the aircraft is similar to a flying saucer. By adjusting the angle between the airflow direction of the aircraft's upper surface and the radial direction, spin of the fuselage can be controlled, and by adjusting the flow velocity distribution of the front, back, left and right directions, the inclination direction of the aircraft body can be changed to realize level flight and direction control. The novel aircraft not only has all the advantages of traditional helicopters, but also has the characteristics of simplicity, compactness, safety, stability and the like, and is an ideal solution to one-man aircrafts and unmanned reconnaissance aerial vehicles.
