Detailed implementation mode

[0015] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0016] This sitting and squatting dual-purpose toilet includes a toilet main body, and is characterized in that a squatting toilet main body like a drawer is installed inside the toilet main body. A power pushing device is installed inside the toilet main body, which can push the squatting toilet main body to extend or retract below the toilet main body like a drawer. It also includes a forward and backward movement device of the squatting toilet main body and a flushing device.

[0017] In Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 8 , the power pushing device includes a horizontal rodless cylinder assembly 2 installed on the upper part of the squatting toilet main body 5. Both ends of the rodless cylinder assembly 2 are fixed on the toilet main body 1 through rodless cylinder fixing pieces 202. The rodless cylinder assembly 2 includes a sliding rod 204 and a rodless cylinder slider 201 installed on the sliding rod 204. The rodless cylinder slider 201 is magnetically connected to the magnetic piston inside the rodless cylinder. The rodless cylinder slider 201 is connected to the flushing connecting piece 8 of the squatting toilet through a slider fixing plate 203. When the rodless cylinder slider 201 slides outwards and the squatting toilet main body 5 extends to the maximum position, the flushing connecting piece 8 of the squatting toilet is connected to the water channel of the toilet main body 1.

[0018] In Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 6 and Figure 7, the squat toilet main body advancing and retracting device includes a squat toilet telescopic operating rod 102 installed on the water tank of the toilet main body 1. The squat toilet telescopic operating rod 102 is connected to a squat toilet telescopic control valve 9. The squat toilet telescopic control valve 9 is connected to a rodless cylinder assembly 2 and a flushing switching cylinder 10 through a water pipe. When the squat toilet telescopic operating rod 102 is pulled, the connected squat toilet telescopic control valve 9 works, causing the flushing switching cylinder 10 to move. At the same time, the slider 201 on the rodless cylinder assembly 2 also moves. The rodless cylinder slider 201 is connected to a slider fixing plate 203. The slider fixing plate 203 is connected to the squat toilet main body 5 through a squat toilet pedal rotating box 7, thereby driving the squat toilet main body 5 to extend or retract from the toilet main body 1.

[0019] In Figure 3 and Figure 5 , the flushing device includes a flushing button 101 installed on the water tank of the toilet main body 1. A drain valve 104 is installed between the flushing button 101 and a flushing switching seat 12. The squat toilet telescopic operating rod 102 is connected to a flushing switching sealing plate 11 in the flushing switching cylinder 10 and the switching seat 12 through the squat toilet telescopic control valve 9. The flushing switching sealing plate 11 is located at the switching point between the toilet flushing water channel and the squat toilet trough 501 flushing water channel in the water tank. The toilet flushing water channel is connected to the sewage channel main body 4 through a pipeline connection seal 3.

[0020] In Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 , there is a toilet chute 103 on the side wall of the toilet main body. A box body rotating arm 701 is installed in the toilet chute 103. The front section of the toilet chute 103 is inclined. When the squat toilet pedal rotating box 7 slides past the inclined section, due to the restriction of the inclined surface of the toilet chute 103, the box body rotating arm 701 on the squat toilet pedal rotating box 7 will rotate. The box body rotating arm 701 is connected to a driving bevel gear shaft 703 in the box body housing 702. The driving bevel gear shaft 703 is connected to a driven bevel gear shaft 704. A connecting screw 6 is installed on the driven bevel gear shaft 704. While driving the squat toilet main body 5 to advance or retreat, the connecting screw 6 rotates.

[0021] In Figure 5 and Figure 6 , inside the squat toilet trough 501, the connecting screw 6 is connected to a squat toilet pedal 502 through a U-shaped plate 506. The squat toilet pedal 502 is connected to a squat toilet pedal vertical support rod 503 through a pin hole. The squat toilet pedal vertical support rod 503 is connected to a squat toilet pedal horizontal connecting rod 505 through a pin hole. The squat toilet pedal horizontal connecting rod 505 is connected to the lower end of a squat toilet fixed support frame 504 through a pin hole. The U-shaped plate 506 is connected to the upper end of the squat toilet fixed support frame 504 through a pin hole. The rotation of the connecting screw 6 drives the squat toilet pedal 502 to open outward or retract inward.

[0022] The usage method and operation process of this sitting and squatting dual-purpose toilet are as follows: Assume the initial state is the toilet usage state.

[0023] I. Select the squatting toilet:

[0024] A. Pull the squatting toilet telescopic operating rod 102, and the squatting toilet telescopic control valve 9 connected to it works, causing the flushing switching cylinder 10 to move. At the same time, the slider 201 on the rodless cylinder assembly 2 also moves forward, thereby driving the squatting toilet main body 5 to extend out of the toilet main body 1.

[0025] B. At the same time, the squatting toilet pedal rotating box 7 and the squatting toilet flushing connecting piece 8 on the slider 201 installed on the rodless cylinder move. The box rotating arm 701 slides in the toilet chute 103. One section of the toilet chute 103 is inclined. When the box rotating arm 701 slides through the inclined section, it will rotate, driving the driving bevel gear shaft 703 in the squatting toilet pedal rotating box 7 to rotate, thereby causing the driven bevel gear shaft 704 and the connecting screw 6 connected to it to rotate. The squatting toilet pedal 502, the squatting toilet pedal vertical support rod 503, and the squatting toilet pedal horizontal connecting rod 505 also rotate, and the squatting toilet pedal 502 unfolds horizontally. When the squatting toilet main body 5 is fully extended, the squatting toilet flushing connecting piece 8 is connected to the water outlet of the toilet, and the movement of the squatting toilet main body 5 stops.

[0026] C. At the same time, the flushing switching cylinder 10 causes the flushing switching sealing plate 11 in the switching seat 12 to open the flushing water channel of the squatting toilet trough 501.

[0027] D. The user steps on the squatting toilet pedal 502 and uses the squatting toilet main body 5.

[0028] E. After use, the user presses the flushing button 101 to open the drain valve 104, and water flows out from the squatting toilet main body 5.

[0029] F. After the squatting toilet trough 501 is rinsed clean, pull the squatting toilet telescopic operating rod 102 to change the direction of the water pressure in the rodless cylinder. The rodless cylinder slider 201 retracts, the squatting toilet main body 5 retracts, the connecting screw 6 rotates in the reverse direction, and the squatting toilet pedal 502 folds in the squatting toilet trough 501. When the squatting toilet main body 5 is fully retracted, the flushing switching sealing plate 11 opens the flushing water channel of the toilet main body 1, and the water outlet switches to the toilet main body 1. If the flushing button 101 is pressed, water will flow out from the toilet main body 1.

[0030] II. When the next person comes in, if using the toilet, it is the same as using an ordinary toilet;

[0031] III. When the next person comes in, if using the squatting toilet, it is the same as the above steps A - F.

[0032] In this example, a rodless cylinder is driven by the tap water pressure, and the medium inside the cylinder is water. The sliding of the slider is controlled by a squat toilet expansion and contraction control valve. It can also be driven by electricity. In this case, the driving method becomes a motor driving a lead screw, and the slider slides on the lead screw. The sliding direction of the slider is controlled by the rotation direction of the motor. Moreover, this invention does not affect the upgrade to an intelligent control toilet, which all belongs to the prior art, so it will not be elaborated in detail.
