Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of sanitary ware, and in particular to a toilet with a foaming device. Background Art

[0002] Existing household flush toilets generally do not have the function of isolating, deodorizing and sterilizing. In addition, the inner glaze of ordinary toilets is poor, and it is difficult to flush out the dirt by flushing with water multiple times. At the same time, due to a large amount of flushing, the E. coli and other bacteria in the toilet and the odor of excrement will be released into the air, seriously affecting the indoor air quality, threatening human health, and causing olfactory and visual discomfort. In addition, in some water-scarce areas, it is unrealistic to rely solely on multiple flushing with water, and it is also extremely unfavorable to energy conservation and environmental protection;

[0003] As people's living standards improve, more and more families install foaming devices on their toilets.
