Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of sanitary equipment, and in particular to a mounting shell and a urinal. Background Art

[0002] Urinals are a common sanitary equipment widely used in public places and homes for men to urinate. Urinals are usually fixed on the wall for easy drainage and flushing. Since the advent of urinals, their design and functions have been continuously improved to enhance the user experience and hygiene standards. As people pay more attention to public health, the design of modern urinals has gradually developed in the direction of water conservation, environmental protection and intelligence. For example, induction urinals automatically flush water through infrared sensing, avoiding manual operation and reducing the risk of contact infection.

[0003] However, existing urinals still have some shortcomings in their structural design, especially when flushing after use. The flushing system of traditional urinals usually generates a strong water flow, which easily splashes when impacting the inner wall of the urinal, causing the flushing liquid to splash to the outside world and even onto the user, causing great inconvenience and health hazards.

[0010] Preferably, the second sealing member comprises an elastic sealing skirt, the elastic sealing skirt is arranged in the second sealing gap, and the width of the elastic sealing skirt is greater than or equal to the width of the second sealing gap; And / or, the first sealing member is located on one side of the rotation axis of the urinal, and the second sealing member is located on the other side of the rotation axis of the urinal and is arranged opposite to the first sealing member.

[0011] Preferably, the seat body further comprises a water receiving tray, and the water receiving tray is located at the lower end side of the seat body; Along the rotation axis direction of the urinal, the projection of the sealing assembly toward the water receiving tray is located inside the water receiving tray; When the urinal is in the second state, along the rotation axis direction of the urinal, the projection of the urinal toward the water receiving tray is located inside the water receiving tray.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] To make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention clearer, the technical solution of the present invention will be described in detail below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other implementation methods obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0022] The terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of the present application are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchangeable under appropriate circumstances, so that the embodiments of the present application can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described here, and the objects distinguished by "first", "second", etc. are generally of one type, and the number of objects is not limited. For example, the first object can be one or more. In addition, "and / or" in the specification and claims represents at least one of the connected objects, and the character " / " generally indicates that the objects associated with each other are in an "or" relationship.

[0023] Combine the following Figures 1 to 12 A mounting shell and a urinal provided in an embodiment of the present application are described in detail through specific embodiments and application scenarios.

[0024] A first aspect of this embodiment provides detailed description of an installation shell.

[0025] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 The embodiment of the present application provides a mounting shell, which is used to support a urinal 11, and the urinal 11 includes a front side 11a and a back side 11b. The front side 11a is the side that the user faces when urinating, and the front side 11a has a groove. When the front side 11a of the urinal 11 faces the user, the urinal 11 can be used by the user; while the back side 11b of the urinal 11 does not have a urination function.

[0026] In the design of the traditional urinal 11, the back side 11b of the urinal 11 is usually fixed on the wall, so the user cannot see the back side 11b of the urinal 11. In the design of the present application, since the urinal 11 can move relative to the mounting shell, the back side 11b of the urinal 11 can move to the side of the user, so that it can be seen by the user. In some embodiments, the back side 11b of the urinal 11 can be used to place advertisements or other information, thereby adding additional functions to the urinal 11 and improving the user experience.

[0027] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 The mounting shell includes a base 100, and the base 100 has a mounting cavity 120 and an opening 110. The urinal 11 is movably mounted in the mounting cavity 120 to switch between a first state and a second state. The mounting cavity 120 is used to accommodate the urinal 11, and the opening 110 connects the mounting cavity 120 with the outside. During use, it is necessary to pre-set a cavity for mounting the mounting shell on a wall or a support body, and fix the mounting shell in the cavity to ensure that the opening 110 is located outside the cavity. With this design, when the urinal 11 is active, its front 11a or back 11b can be located on the side of the opening 110 respectively.

[0028] Reference Figure 2 When the urinal 11 is in the first state, the front surface 11a of the urinal 11 is located at the opening 110 side, and the back surface 11b is located in the installation cavity 120. Figure 1 , and when the urinal 11 is in the second state, the back 11b of the urinal 11 is located on the side of the opening 110, and the front 11a is located in the installation cavity 120. When the front 11a is located on the side of the opening 110, the urinal 11 can be used by the user to urinate. It can be understood that when the urinal 11 is in the second state, the cleaning device such as the nozzle in the installation cavity 120 can clean various areas of the front 11a of the urinal 11, and the various areas of the front 11a of the urinal 11 include the interior of the tank body and the outer shell of the front 11a. In addition, when the urinal 11 is in the first state, the cleaning device such as the nozzle in the installation cavity 120 can also clean the back 11b. Whether to clean the back 11b specifically needs to be set according to actual needs.

[0029] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 5In some embodiments, the seat 100 is provided with a sealing assembly 300, which is located between the seat 100 and the urinal 11. When the urinal 11 is in the first state and / or the second state, the sealing assembly 300 seals at least part of the gap between the seat 100 and the urinal 11. The main purpose of providing the sealing assembly 300 is to prevent water droplets splashing during the cleaning process from splashing out to the outside through the gap between the seat 100 and the urinal 11 when the front 11a and / or the back 11b of the urinal 11 is located in the installation cavity 120 for cleaning.

[0030] Reference Figure 5 , Figure 6 It is understandable that the gap between the seat 100 and the urinal 11 surrounds the urinal 11, but only part of the gap may cause water droplets to splash into the external environment. Therefore, through the sealing component 300, only those gap parts that are prone to water splashing need to be sealed to effectively prevent water droplets from splashing. Exemplarily, in some embodiments, the gaps between the two sides of the urinal 11 and the seat 100 are prone to cause water droplets to splash, so the sealing component 300 is arranged at these gaps between the two sides of the urinal 11 and the seat 100 to effectively prevent water droplets from splashing. In other embodiments, the sealing component 300 is arranged around the urinal 11.

[0031] It is understandable that since the front side 11a of the urinal 11 needs to be cleaned after each use, the front side 11a is flushed frequently. To ensure thorough cleaning, the outer shell of the front side 11a and the interior of the tank body of the urinal 11 are cleaned. However, after cleaning the outer shell of the front side 11a, water droplets may remain on the front side 11a. If the front side 11a is moved to the side of the opening 110 for use by the user in this case, these water droplets may fall on the user's shoes, causing inconvenience.

[0032] In some embodiments, reference Figure 8 , Fig. 9 In the process of switching the urinal 11 from the second state to the first state, the sealing component 300 contacts the front surface 11a to scrape off the water stains on the front surface 11a. That is, in the process of switching the urinal 11 from the second state to the first state, the sealing component 300 contacts the front surface 11a and slides relative to the front surface 11a during the process, thereby scraping off the water droplets on the outer shell of the front surface 11a to prevent the water droplets from falling on the user's feet, thereby improving the user experience.

[0033] In some embodiments, the urinal 11 is rotatably mounted in the mounting cavity 120, and when the urinal 11 is rotated, it can switch between the first state and the second state. In other embodiments, the urinal 11 can not only slide relative to the shell, but also rotate relative to the shell, and can rotate simultaneously during the sliding process. It is understandable that the connection method between the urinal 11 and the seat body 100 is not limited to rotation and / or sliding, and any activity method can be applied as long as the urinal 11 can switch between the first state and the second state. This embodiment does not limit the specific connection method between the urinal 11 and the seat body 100.

[0034] According to an optional embodiment, the urinal 11 can rotate relative to the seat body 100 in the first clockwise direction, and the front face 11a is a first arc surface with the rotation axis of the urinal 11 as the rotation center, and the first arc surface is a part of the rotation surface with the rotation axis of the urinal 11 as the rotation center. The urinal 11 can rotate relative to the seat body 100 in the first clockwise direction, which means that the urinal 11 is rotatably installed on the seat body 100, and the urinal 11 rotates relative to the seat body 100 along the first clockwise direction. It can be understood that the rotation of the urinal 11 relative to the seat body 100 is carried out in the first clockwise direction, that is, the urinal 11 rotates unidirectionally in the clockwise or counterclockwise direction. This means that the urinal 11 can only rotate relative to the seat body 100 in the same direction. In this embodiment, the urinal 11 rotates clockwise, that is, in this embodiment, the first clockwise direction is the clockwise direction. It can be understood that in other embodiments, the first clockwise direction can also be the counterclockwise direction, which can be selected according to actual conditions.

[0035] Among them, refer to Fig. 9 , Fig.10 , the front face 11a is a first arc surface with the rotation axis of the urinal 11 as the rotation center, and the first arc surface is a part of the rotation surface with the rotation axis of the urinal 11 as the rotation center, which means that the contour of the front face 11a is a part of the rotation surface with the rotation axis of the urinal 11 as the center. In other words, the contour of the front face 11a is a part of the rotation surface. When the urinal 11 rotates relative to the seat 100, since the contour of the front face 11a is a part of the rotation surface, the relative position of the front face 11a and the seat 100 remains unchanged. In some embodiments, if the sealing assembly 300 is installed between the front face 11a and the seat 100, when the urinal 11 rotates relative to the seat 100, the sealing assembly 300 will always be able to keep in contact with the front face 11a, and slide along the front face 11a during the rotation process, so as to effectively scrape off the water stains on the front face 11a, ensure that the water stains will not remain on the front face 11a, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the urinal 11 and preventing water drops from dripping into the external environment.

[0036] According to an alternative embodiment, referring to Figure 8, Fig. 9 , the sealing assembly 300 includes a first sealing member 310 and a second sealing member 320. When the urinal 11 is in the first state and / or the second state, the seat body 100 forms a first sealing gap and a second sealing gap with both sides of the front face 11a. The first sealing member 310 is located in the first sealing gap, and the second sealing member 320 is located in the second sealing gap, so as to achieve sealing of the gaps on both sides. It can be understood that the two sides of the front face 11a are the two sides in the height direction of the urinal 11. During flushing, these two positions are more likely to cause water droplets to splash, that is, water droplets are more likely to splash through the first sealing gap and the second sealing gap. Therefore, the first sealing member 310 is arranged in the first sealing gap, and the second sealing member 320 is arranged in the second sealing gap, so as to achieve sealing of the gap between the first sealing member 310 and the second sealing gap.

[0037] The first sealing member 310 includes a wiper portion 311. When the urinal 11 is in the first state and / or the second state, the wiper portion 311 is in contact with the urinal 11. The wiper portion 311 can effectively scrape off the water stains remaining on the front surface 11a during the rotation of the urinal 11, thereby preventing the water stains from spreading to the outside, further improving the waterproof performance of the device and the user experience.

[0038] In addition, in the first clockwise direction, the first sealing member 310 is located at the upstream side relative to the second sealing member 320, ensuring that when the urinal 11 rotates in this direction, the wiper 311 first contacts and removes the water stains on the front surface 11a. The effect of this design is to ensure that the water stains are completely scraped off before the urinal 11 rotates to a new position, thereby further preventing the water stains from dripping onto the user or other sensitive areas.

[0039] According to an alternative embodiment, referring to Figure 8 , Fig. 9 The first sealing member 310 includes an elastic wiper strip 312, which is disposed in the first sealing gap. The width of the elastic wiper strip 312 is designed to be greater than or equal to the width of the first sealing gap, so that the elastic wiper strip 312 can fully contact the surface of the urinal 11 when the urinal 11 rotates. Specifically, the part where the elastic wiper strip 312 contacts the urinal 11 is the wiper portion 311. The material of the elastic wiper strip 312 has certain flexibility and elasticity, and can keep in contact with the surface of the urinal 11 during the rotation of the urinal 11, and can scrape off the water stains on the surface while sliding on the surface of the urinal 11.

[0040] Due to the design of the width of the elastic wiper strip 312, it is ensured that it can cover the entire width of the first sealing gap during the rotation of the urinal 11, which helps to prevent water stains from overflowing to the outside through the first sealing gap to a certain extent. The flexible material of the elastic wiper strip 312 also enables it to adapt to the slight unevenness of the surface of the urinal 11, further enhancing the wiper effect. In addition, the elasticity of the elastic wiper strip 312 enables it to generate moderate pressure when it contacts the surface of the urinal 11, which helps to improve the efficiency of wiper without causing excessive wear on the surface of the urinal 11.

[0041] This structural design optimizes the cleaning effect of the urinal 11 to a certain extent and reduces the possibility of water splashing, thereby improving the convenience of use and cleaning performance. In addition, by arranging the elastic wiper strip 312 in the first sealing gap, it is also helpful to extend the service life of the sealing assembly 300 and reduce the maintenance requirements.

[0042] According to an alternative embodiment, referring to Figure 8 , Fig. 9 The seat body 100 is provided with a mounting seat 130, and the elastic wiper strip 312 is connected to the mounting seat 130. The mounting seat 130 includes a water retaining portion 131 and a limiting portion 132, and the limiting portion 132 is water-absorbent. In the first clockwise direction, the water retaining portion 131 is located on the upstream side of the limiting portion 132. In the process of switching from the second state to the first state, the water retaining portion 131 is attached to the urinal 11, and the limiting portion 132 is attached to the urinal 11. Exemplarily, the limiting portion 132 is made of a water-absorbent material, or the portion of the limiting portion 132 that is used to fit the urinal 11 is made of a water-absorbent material, so that the limiting portion 132 can wipe the water stains on the surface of the urinal 11 clean. For example, the portion of the limiting portion 132 that is used to fit the urinal 11 is a polyester fiber cloth or a microfiber cloth, wherein the microfiber cloth is a synthetic fiber cloth made of polyester and polyamide mixed in a certain proportion. The diameter of its fiber is very thin, usually about 1 / 20 of a human hair, so it has special water absorption and cleaning ability. The fiber of microfiber is extremely fine, with a large fiber surface area, which can quickly absorb and lock water. The water absorption capacity is several times that of ordinary cotton cloth. Microfiber cloth has good water absorption, but it is also easy to dry (water gradually drips under its own gravity), which can effectively prevent bacteria from growing. Microfiber is a prior art and will not be described here.

[0043] In the process of switching from the second state to the first state, the water retaining portion 131 fits with the surface of the urinal 11 to scrape off the water stains on the surface and reduce the overflow or splashing of water droplets. The limiting portion 132 is in close contact with the surface of the urinal 11. On the one hand, it is used to wipe off the residual water stains, and on the other hand, it provides support and positioning for the elastic wiper strip 312 to ensure its stable contact and efficient operation. It can be understood that in the process of switching from the second state to the first state, the first arc surface is in contact with the limiting portion 132, the water retaining portion 131 and the elastic wiper strip 312. Since the first arc surface is a rotating surface, its shape enables the limiting portion 132, the water retaining portion 131 and the elastic wiper strip 312 to fit closely with it, thereby enhancing the effect of scraping off the water stains. At the same time, this fitting design can also effectively prevent the flushing water from leaking into the external environment, further improving the sealing and cleaning effect of the equipment.

[0044] The design principle of this structure is that, through the preliminary scraping of the water retaining portion 131 and the water-absorbing wiping operation of the limiting portion 132, the cleaning performance of the elastic scraper strip 312 is optimized, the possibility of water droplets splashing in the external environment of the urinal 11 is reduced, and the cleaning effect of the urinal 11 and the convenience of equipment maintenance are improved.

[0045] According to an alternative embodiment, referring to Figure 8 , Fig. 9 The second sealing member 320 includes an elastic sealing skirt 321, which is disposed in the second sealing gap. The width of the elastic sealing skirt 321 is designed to be greater than or equal to the width of the second sealing gap, so as to effectively cover the second sealing gap during the installation process. The elastic sealing skirt 321 is usually made of a material with high flexibility, such as rubber or polyurethane. The flexibility of such a material can not only ensure that the elastic sealing skirt 321 fits tightly against the surface of the urinal 11, but also change shape during the rotation of the urinal 11, thereby reducing the possibility of leakage from the gap.

[0046] During the process of switching the urinal 11 from the second state to the first state, the elastic sealing skirt 321 can adapt to the changes in the surface of the urinal 11 to a certain extent, providing a continuous sealing effect, thereby helping to prevent water droplets from seeping out of the gap during the rotation process. In addition, the width design of the elastic sealing skirt 321 helps to further increase the stability of the seal, and even in the case of multiple rotations, it can maintain its sealing performance and is not easy to wear or fail due to repeated movements.

[0047] It can be understood that the urinal 11 rotates unidirectionally along the first clockwise direction, and the elastic sealing skirt 321 is located on the downstream side of the elastic wiper strip 312. Therefore, when the urinal 11 rotates relative to the seat body 100, the portion of the elastic sealing skirt 321 that contacts the urinal 11 will deform toward the inside of the installation cavity 120, and after deformation, it will fit tightly with the surface of the urinal 11. This design can effectively prevent the flushing liquid in the installation cavity 120 from overflowing through the gap between the elastic sealing skirt 321 and the urinal 11 when cleaning the urinal 11, thereby improving the sealing effect. On the contrary, if the elastic sealing skirt 321 is located on the upstream side of the elastic wiper strip 312 in the first clockwise direction, the portion of the elastic sealing skirt 321 that contacts the urinal 11 will deform toward the outside of the installation cavity 120. Under this structure, the flushing liquid in the installation cavity 120 is more likely to overflow through the gap between the elastic sealing skirt 321 and the urinal 11, affecting the sealing effect.

[0048] It is understandable that when the urinal 11 is in the first state and is used, part of the urine may fall on the outer wall of the front surface 11a. In order to solve the problem that the urine on the front surface 11a may be scraped off and dripped onto the elastic sealing skirt 321 during the switching process of the urinal 11 from the first state to the second state, a first magnet is arranged on the elastic sealing skirt 321 near the lower end of the urinal 11, and a second magnet (not shown in the figure) is arranged on the front surface 11a. The two magnets are designed to generate a mutually repelling force when they are close to each other. When the urinal 11 is switched from the first state to the second state, the repulsive force between the first magnet and the second magnet will cause the elastic sealing skirt 321 to separate from the front surface 11a, preventing urine from contacting the elastic sealing skirt 321. As the urinal 11 is completely switched to the second state, there is no second magnet on the front surface 11a opposite to the elastic sealing skirt 321, so the elastic sealing skirt 321 will fit with the urinal 11 again, thereby continuing to play a sealing role when the urinal 11 is cleaned. This design effectively prevents urine from contaminating the elastic sealing skirt 321 while ensuring the sealing performance of the urinal 11 in different states, which is beneficial to improving the hygiene and cleaning effect of use.

[0049] According to an alternative embodiment, referring to Fig.11 , Fig.12 The first seal 310 is located on one side of the rotation axis of the urinal 11, and the second seal 320 is located on the other side of the rotation axis of the urinal 11 and is arranged opposite to the first seal 310. In this way, under the premise of meeting the sealing requirements, when the front face 11a is located in the installation cavity 120, the cleaning area of ​​the front face 11a can be expanded, thereby providing a better cleaning effect.

[0050] According to an alternative embodiment, referring to Figure 5 , Figure 6, the seat body 100 further includes a water receiving pan 500, which is located at the lower end side of the seat body 100. Along the rotation axis direction of the urinal 11, the projection of the sealing assembly 300 to the water receiving pan 500 is located inside the water receiving pan 500. When the urinal 11 is in the second state, along the rotation axis direction of the urinal 11, the projection of the urinal 11 to the water receiving pan 500 is located inside the water receiving pan 500. It can be understood that the seat body 100 has an upper end side and a lower end side. When installed, the upper end side of the seat body 100 is located away from the ground, while the lower end side of the seat body 100 is located close to the ground. In contrast, the upper end side of the urinal 11 is close to the upper end side of the seat body 100, and the lower end side of the urinal 11 is close to the lower end side of the seat body 100.

[0051] The water tray 500 is located at the lower end of the seat body 100, which means that the installation position of the water tray 500 is at the lower end of the seat body 100, and the installation position of the urinal 11 is above the water tray 500 (refer to Figure 4 ). This design is intended to enable the water tray 500 to effectively collect water droplets generated during the flushing process of the urinal 11, including water scraped off the outer wall of the urinal 11 by the sealing assembly 300.

[0052] According to an optional embodiment, a mounting portion 140 is provided on the upper end side of the seat body 100, and an inspection port is provided on the front side 11a, which is in communication with the mounting portion 140, and the urinal 11 is installed between the mounting portion 140 and the water receiving tray 500. The mounting portion 140 is located on the upper end side of the seat body 100, and this design can effectively reduce the risk of water entering the mounting portion 140, thereby protecting the electrical components inside it, such as the rotating motor, the induction probe, etc. By providing the inspection port, these electrical components can be easily maintained and inspected, avoiding the need to completely disassemble the urinal 11 during inspection, thereby improving the convenience and efficiency of maintenance.

[0053] According to an alternative embodiment, referring to Figure 6 , Figure 7 The urinal 11 is connected to a first downpipe 11c, which penetrates the water tray 500 and is connected to the downpipe. The water tray 500 is provided with a second downpipe, which is connected to the downpipe. By providing two downpipe paths, the liquid from the urinal 11 and the water tray 500 can be discharged separately, thereby avoiding the mixing of the liquids of the two, and improving the efficiency and stability of the drainage system.

[0054] In some embodiments, the central axis of the first downpipe 11c and the first downpipe 11c are used to discharge the liquid in the urinal 11. The second downpipe 510 is used to discharge the liquid in the water tray 500. The downpipe is a pipe connected to the drainage system, and illustratively, the downpipe is a building drainage pipe. It is understandable that a hole is provided on the water tray 500 for the first downpipe 11c to pass through, and the size of the hole is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the first downpipe 11c, so that the first downpipe 11c can rotate freely along the axis or move axially in the hole. This structural design not only enables the first downpipe 11c and the urinal 11 to rotate as a whole, but also reduces the stress on the pipe connection during the installation process, and improves the flexibility and durability of the structure. In order to prevent liquid from leaking from the hole, a circle of protrusions is provided around the hole. The height of the protrusion makes the upper edge of the hole higher than the liquid level in the water tray 500, which helps to prevent liquid from overflowing or leaking from the hole. With this structural design, liquid can be discharged smoothly through the second downpipe 510 without leaking from the hole due to excessive liquid level. In order to facilitate the communication between the first downpipe 11c and the downpipe, a pipe is connected between the hole and the downpipe, and the first downpipe 11c is inserted into the pipe through the hole.

[0055] In some embodiments, a bearing is further provided between the water receiving tray 500 and the first downpipe 11c. The bearing can help the first downpipe 11c rotate more smoothly relative to the water receiving tray 500, thereby reducing friction resistance and parts wear. The inner ring of the bearing is in close contact with the first downpipe 11c, and the outer ring is fixedly mounted on the water receiving tray 500. This design not only ensures the smooth rotation of the first downpipe 11c, but also extends the service life of the system. The use of bearings helps to improve the operational flexibility of the entire device, and to a certain extent reduces the wear caused by the rotation of the pipe, thereby extending the service life of the device. Through the synergistic effect of the above structures, the system not only optimizes the drainage performance, but also further reduces the possibility of liquid leakage and improves the reliability of the drainage system.

[0056] According to an optional embodiment, the sealing assembly 300 is located on both sides of the urinal 11. When the urinal 11 rotates relative to the seat 100 or switches states, the gap between the urinal 11 and the seat 100 can be effectively closed. The purpose of this design is that when the urinal 11 switches to different states, whether it is switching from the first state to the second state, or the opposite direction, the sealing assembly 300 can play a sealing role on both sides, thereby reducing the risk of water stains or other liquids leaking to the outside of the seat 100 and improving the overall sealing performance. This arrangement is beneficial to provide better leakage prevention effects and higher hygiene standards during actual use.

[0057] According to an optional embodiment, the sealing assembly 300 is detachably mounted on the seat body 100, so as to facilitate maintenance or replacement when necessary. This design allows the user to easily clean or replace the sealing assembly 300, thereby maintaining a good sealing effect and hygienic use. For example, the sealing assembly 300 is detachably fixed on the seat body 100 by bolts, Velcro, etc.

[0058] According to an alternative embodiment, referring to Figure 5 , Figure 6 , the back side 11b is a second curved surface, and the curvature of the second curved surface is smaller than that of the first curved surface. With this design, when the urinal 11 is in the first state, the front side 11a can protrude from the opening 110 of the seat body 100, close to the user, and convenient for use; and when the urinal 11 is switched to the second state, the back side 11b is embedded in the opening 110, so that the urinal 11 can be better stored in the accommodation cavity of the seat body 100. This design can effectively save external space when the urinal 11 is not in use, and prevent the urinal 11 from occupying too much space, which is conducive to optimizing the environmental layout and improving space utilization.

[0059] The second aspect of this embodiment describes a urinal in detail.

[0060] Reference Figure 3 , Figure 6 A urinal includes a mounting shell in the above embodiment, and also includes a urinal 11, a flushing nozzle 200 and a driving assembly 400. The urinal 11 is mounted on a seat 100, specifically, rotatably mounted on the seat 100. The flushing nozzle 200 is located in a mounting cavity 120. In some embodiments, the flushing nozzle 200 is fixed on the seat 100. In other embodiments, the flushing nozzle 200 can also be fixed on a wall, mainly for cleaning the urinal 11 located in the mounting cavity 120. The driving assembly 400 is disposed on the seat 100, and is used to drive the urinal 10 to rotate relative to the seat 100. Exemplarily, the driving assembly 400 includes a driving motor. For example, the driving motor is mounted on the mounting portion 140. The urinal 11 is driven by the driving motor to switch between the first state and the second state.
