Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of bathrooms, in particular to a water tank device and a toilet. Background Art
[0002] The Chinese utility model patent with application number 202221574739.X discloses a sealed toilet flushing device with electrically controlled water inlet, in which a submersible pump is installed in the water tank. The submersible pump is connected to the water outlet of the water tank through a connecting pipe to form an outlet waterway in the water tank, and the submersible pump pumps the water out of the water tank through the outlet waterway. This toilet flushing device does not affect the operation of the flushing device and reduces the probability of seal failure of the external connection of the water pump. In addition, in order to avoid the sewage in the toilet being sucked back into the water tank when negative pressure is generated on the outlet waterway, this toilet flushing device is provided with a one-way valve on the outlet waterway to prevent the water in the water tank from being contaminated and moldy. This method can certainly have an anti-siphon effect, but it is achieved by using a one-way valve, which not only increases the material cost of the one-way valve, but also increases the assembly process of the one-way valve, which ultimately increases the product cost.

[0033] See also Figure 1-Figure 10As shown, a water tank device of the utility model comprises a water tank 1, at least one submersible pump 2 and a water inlet valve 3, wherein the water inlet valve 3 and the submersible pump 2 are respectively arranged in the water tank 1, and the output end of the submersible pump 2 is connected to a water delivery pipeline, so that the water drawn from the water tank 1 by the submersible pump 2 is output through the water delivery pipeline. An anti-siphon hole 53 is arranged on the water delivery pipeline, and the anti-siphon hole 53 is located above the working water level of the water tank 1, and the anti-siphon hole 53 is arranged downward, and the anti-siphon hole 53 is a small hole. When the submersible pump 2 pumps water, a small part of the water flows to the anti-siphon hole 53 and flows back into the water tank 1. The anti-siphon hole 53 is arranged downward, which can promote a part of the water flowing out of the anti-siphon hole 53 to flow directly downward back into the water tank 1, reduce the splashing of this part of the water to the surrounding, and there is no need to set an interception baffle, etc., so that the overall structure is simpler. The anti-siphon hole 53 is set as a small hole, so that the water outlet area of the anti-siphon hole 53 is smaller, thereby reducing the water outlet of the anti-siphon hole 53 and ensuring that most of the water pumped out by the submersible pump 2 is used for flushing.
[0034] In this embodiment, the water delivery pipeline includes a first water pipe 4, a second water pipe 6 and an adapter 5, the adapter 5 has a first pipe section 51 and a second pipe section 52 that are interconnected, one end of the first water pipe 4 is connected to the water outlet of the submersible pump 2, the other end of the first water pipe 4 is connected to the first pipe section 51 of the adapter 5, and the second pipe section 52 of the adapter 5 is connected to one end of the second water pipe 6. The first water pipe 4 is a rubber pipe, and the second water pipe 6 is a white mesh pipe, but it is not limited thereto.
[0035] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the anti-siphon hole 53 is provided on the adapter 5, specifically on the side wall of the first pipe section 51 of the adapter 5, and exposed outside the first water pipe 4. The first pipe section 51 of the adapter 5 is inserted into the other end of the first water pipe 4, and squeezes the other end of the first water pipe 4 outward, so that the two are in an interference fit. A limit block 55 is provided on the adapter 5, and the limit block 55 holds the other end of the first water pipe 4 tightly, so that the other end of the first water pipe 4 is more reliably connected to the first pipe section 51 of the adapter.
[0036] In this embodiment, a mounting opening 11 is provided on the top of the side wall of the water tank 1, and the second pipe section 52 of the adapter 5 passes through the mounting opening 11 and is connected to one end of the second water pipe 6. Figure 5 As shown, the second pipe section 52 of the adapter 5 is inserted into one end of the second water pipe 6, and the one end of the second water pipe 6 is pressed outward, so that the one end of the second water pipe 6 is interference-fitted with the installation opening 11. In this way, the second pipe section 52 of the adapter 5 is more reliably connected to the one end of the second water pipe 6.
[0037] The anti-siphon hole 53 on the adapter 5 is close to the mounting opening 11 at the top of the water tank 1. The adapter 5 is provided with a water retaining portion 54 located in the water tank 1 between the anti-siphon hole 53 and the mounting opening 11. The water retaining portion 54 extends downward. Specifically, the water retaining portion 54 is in the shape of a rib, but is not limited thereto. The water retaining portion 54 can prevent the water flowing out of the anti-siphon hole 53 from splashing onto the mounting opening 11 of the water tank 1.
[0038] In this embodiment, if Fig. 9 , Fig.10 As shown, the adapter 5 is provided with a pressure relief channel 56, which is used to communicate with the back pressure chamber of the pilot water diverter valve, and the water outlet of the pressure relief channel 56 faces upward, and the adapter 5 is provided with a water retaining cover 57 at the water outlet of the pressure relief channel 56 to intercept the water flow output by the pressure relief channel 56 and make it flow downward into the water tank 1. Therefore, the utility model does not need to provide the pressure relief channel 56 on the water tank 1, so that the appearance of the water tank 1 is more simple and beautiful.

During the water delivery process of the water delivery pipeline, a small portion of water reaching the anti-siphon hole 53 will flow downward from the anti-siphon hole 53 and flow back into the water tank 1. When the water tank 1 is not draining, the anti-siphon hole 53 is connected to the external atmosphere, thereby destroying the negative pressure that may occur in the water delivery pipeline, thereby preventing the sewage in the toilet from flowing back to the water tank 1 along the water delivery pipeline.
[0041] When the pilot water diverter valve connected to the adapter 5 is started, the water discharged from its back pressure chamber by pressure relief enters the pressure relief channel 56 of the adapter 5, and finally flows downward into the water tank 1 under the interception of the water retaining cover 57. Fig. 9 , Fig.10 As shown, the arrows in the figure indicate the direction of water flow.
[0042] The utility model provides a water tank device, in which the anti-siphon hole 53 is arranged on the water delivery pipeline, which not only does not affect the drainage of the water tank 1, but also can recover a part of the water flowing out of the anti-siphon hole 53, thereby avoiding the waste of water resources.
