ABSTRACT A hinge assembly for mounting a toilet cover- ing member to the rear of a toilet so as to permit rota- tion of the covering about a hinge axis between an up and a down position is disclosed. In one form, a pair of hinge posts are mounted to the rear of the toilet which extend along a hinge axis. Each of a pair of hinge receiving elements are mounted to the toilet covering and has a bore which is alignable with one of the hinge post elements along the hinge axis. The hinge post elements have lugs axially spaced apart from stops and the bores in the hinge receiving elements are key hole shaped to permit a key and slot type connection between the hinge post elements and the hinge receiving element. The toilet covering member is captured on the toilet by axially inserting the hinge post elements into the corresponding bores and rotating the hinge post ele- ments relative to the hinge receiving elements about the hinge axis to lock the elements together. In one embodiment, the hinge post elements extend in the same direction and are fixed. In another embodiment, they extend in opposite directions and are axially slidable relative to one another.
