I suspect this setup is for the janitor to use to fill those big, rolling mop buckets. It does look like it swings to the side. He/she should be able to park the bucket next to the toilet and swing the faucet over to fill it. After mopping, the bucket can be tipped into the toilet. When I worked fast food there was a low sink/pan in the back for this purpose. This setup is doing double duty as a potty – rather, the potty is doing double duty as a mop station.
Demetrius’ explanation sounds right to me. Also, we had similar setups when I worked in the hospital, so one could rinse out bedpans and dump right into the toilet.
This person has some major defecation issues. A bowl brush on one side, a dustpan (?!) on the other, and an industrial-strength faucet overhead… with cold AND hot water. All that’s missing (besides toilet paper) is a raincoat and some galoshes.
This is a forced evacuation station. You sit and put that faucet in your mouth. After a couple minutes, medical samples are coming out of every possible orifice.

@Lalas: that’s what the shower is for. Avoids getting the floor wet.
This isn’t actually a half-bad idea (though poor implementation). Save water by running the sink drain into the toilet. I believe it’s common in Japan (though generally designed properly there).
@Hello – You could fill a mop bucket. But, I think your bedpan station is right on the mark! It makes perfect sense that you would want a drain that chunky stuff could go down – and, not have to carry the pans back and forth to a sink.
What kind of toilet is this?!? It drains toward the front of the bowl, rather than through the center or towards the back. There’s no tank, just a faucet. And if that faucet doesn’t swivel, only a dwarf or a hunchback could use it and even then they would hit their head when they got up.
Very funny comments indeed. I live in a country where these are used. The tank for flushing is above the frame, connected with a pipe. The faucet can be indeed bent aside for normal toilet use. The additional faucet is there for the filling of the cleaning buckets. We use warm water to be more comfortable when washing household items and it is also believed to dissolve dirt better.
Companies use a dedicated bowl slightly different from an ordinary toilet just for the house cleaning needs.
I may post what we have at work Monday evening if I remember this article.
I also know the type of the sewage pipe. They are made of thick cast iron that takes 50+ years to rot through in the worst of outdoor conditions, comfortably outliving any house it is installed in.
Oh man, the title stole _exactly_ what I was going to say!
Very strange! Maybe you can take a shower while having a poo? Efficient!
you can wash your p*n*s while you’re pissing
I sure hope that the faucet swivels out of the way so one can “take care of business”, otherwise the use of this loo should provide quite a spectacle!
Worst. Hair salon. Ever.
Photoshopped! There is no way the dustpan could be that shade or green!
Hmmm, why would you need a dustpan beside the crapper? I am not sure I want to know.

Wouldn’t that be a tedib?
You know those little signs in restrooms reminding employees to wash their hands? Problem solved!

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!! Awesome!
Oh! Someone dropped the soap in the sink…
is that the flush mechanism? there isn’t a tank on the toidy.
Stagefright? Here’s a stream to get you started.
I just realized that there are _hot_and_cold_ faucets.
I can’t tell if this is an epic kludge, or a septic fail!
I’d hate to think what’s above. Given the state of the sewage pipe, the taps might be quite useful.
i dont want to know how the towel looks like
Paddy- I can’t tell if this is an epic kludge, or a septic fail!
Cha-ching!

Perfect!

Could this be where the Tidy Bowl Man docks his boat? Everything else is questionable but the bowl sparkles.
Who here hasn’t needed to wash their lap after at least one massive dooky? Seriously? Not even once?
…
…
…
Just once?
bad quality pic
@Badgirl
If so, he’d better invest in a Bimini top pronto.
@Gideon – I was making a joke about all the absurd comments saying things are photoshopped.
dono – tru dat. I predict Monsoon season in those parts can be pretty rough.
Judging by that hot water valve install, there must have been a big sale on grout.
So it’s basically a waterboarding station?!
I don’t see a toilet tank — I think that’s the flusher, too.
One really has to wonder how much alcohol is involved in some of these “fixes”
or if u go for a poop … have a shower?

@Demetrius
Chunky stuff? Honestly! TMI.
Someone heard about ‘grey water systems’ and decided they couldn’t afford it…
It’s for buttheads.
Haven’t you always wanted a weewee-washer?
I think this is for a guy puking his overserved brains out that wants to shampoo at the same time…. a fraternity thing.. Animal House comes to mind.
Is the opposite of bidet a binight?
Sham-poo.
IN SOVIET RUSSIA TOILET PISSES ON YOU!

This is at work for the same purpose. Pardon the poor lighting.
helps it flush
or
redneck bath
“I don’t know why, but I suddenly have problems sitting on the toilet…. I wonder why….”
Where’s the toilet’s hole?
