[0030] Reference herein to "an embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the embodiment can be included in at least one embodiment of the application. The appearances of the phrase in various places in the specification are not necessarily all referring to the same embodiment, nor are they necessarily mutually exclusive of one another. It is expressly understood that the embodiments described herein are merely examples from a potentially infinite number of embodiments that serve the same, a similar, or other purposes, as will be apparent to one of ordinary skill in the art reviewing this application.

[0031] The application will be described in detail below with reference to the attached drawings and embodiments.

[0032] Reference will now be made to Figures 1-3 wherein, Figure 1 is an exploded schematic view of a water spraying mechanism according to a first embodiment of the present application, Figure 2 is Figure 1 is an assembled schematic view of the water spraying mechanism in Figure 3 is Figure 2 is a cross-sectional view of the water spraying mechanism in the present embodiment. In the present embodiment, the water spraying mechanism 10 includes a housing 11, a rotating member 12, and a nozzle member 13.

[0033] The water spraying mechanism 10 provided in the present application can be specifically applied in a smart toilet for taking water from a water storage mechanism of the smart toilet and spraying it in a specific direction for cleaning a specific part of a user. Of course, in other embodiments, the water spraying mechanism 10 can also be specifically applied in a toy water gun, a shower, or any other reasonable mechanical device, and the present embodiment does not limit this.

[0034] Specifically, the inside of the shell 11 of the water spraying mechanism 10 is formed with a receiving cavity 1101, and a first water inlet pipe 101 and a first water outlet pipe 102 are respectively arranged on two adjacent side surfaces of the shell 11, and the first water inlet pipe 101 and the first water outlet pipe 102 are connected via the receiving cavity 1101 inside the shell 11.

[0035] The rotating member 12 is arranged in the receiving cavity 1101 inside the shell 11, and a first limiting column 121 is arranged on a side surface of the rotating member 12 facing the first water outlet pipe 102.

[0036] It is worth noting that, as shown in Figure 4 , Figure 4 is Figure 3 a detailed cross-sectional view of the rotating member in the water spraying mechanism, the extending direction of the first limiting column 121 is parallel to the central axis of the rotating member 12, and the central axis of the first limiting column 121 is located on a different straight line from the central axis of the rotating member 12, and the distance between the central axis of the first limiting column 121 and the central axis of the rotating member 12 corresponds to L1.

[0037] Further, the nozzle member 13 is also arranged in the receiving cavity 1101, and a water passing channel is formed inside the nozzle member 13, and the outer side wall of one end of the nozzle member 13 is connected to the inner side wall of the first water outlet pipe 102, and the other end is connected to the first limiting column 121.

[0038] Therefore, when the rotating member 12 is pushed by an external force and rotates around its central axis, the first limiting column 121 of the rotating member 12 can simultaneously drive the other end of the nozzle member 13 to rotate in the first direction Z.

[0039] It can be understood that when the external water flow, such as water in the external water channel or water in the external water storage mechanism, is introduced into the receiving cavity 1101 inside the shell 11 and passes through the water passing channel inside the nozzle member 13, and is sprayed out of the first water outlet pipe 102, when the rotating member 12 is pushed by an external force and rotates around its central axis to drive the other end of the nozzle member 13 to rotate in the first direction Z through the first limiting column 121 of the rotating member 12, the water column sprayed out of the nozzle member 13 and the first water outlet pipe 102 will form a spiral water spray effect, and the faster the rotating speed of the rotating member 12, the faster the rotation of the nozzle member 13, and the faster the rotation of the spiral water column.

[0040] It is worth noting that, as shown in Figure 5 , Figure 5 is Figure 3A detailed sectional view of the rotating member and the nozzle member in the water spraying mechanism, the first direction Z is specifically parallel to the central axis of the rotating member 12, and since the distance between the central axis of the first limiting column 121 and the central axis of the rotating member 12 corresponds to L1, when the rotating member 12 drives the other end of the nozzle member 13 to rotate around the first direction Z through the first limiting column 121, the included angle between the central axis of the nozzle member 13 and the central axis of the rotating member 12 will be a set acute angle a. Wherein, the greater the distance between the central axis of the first limiting column 121 and the central axis of the rotating member 12 corresponds to L1, the greater the included angle between the central axis of the corresponding nozzle member 13 and the central axis of the rotating member 12, that is, the greater the set acute angle a, the greater the spiral water column sprayed from the nozzle member 13, and vice versa. The smaller the distance L1, the smaller the set acute angle a, and the smaller the spiral water column, so that by adjusting the distance L1 between the central axis of the first limiting column 121 and the central axis of the rotating member 12, different spiral water effects can be achieved.

[0041] The above scheme, when the rotating member 12 rotates around its central axis, the first limiting column 121 of the rotating member 12 can synchronously drive the other end of the nozzle member 13 to rotate around the first direction Z, so that the water column sprayed by the nozzle member 13 presents a spiral effect, and does not need to rely on other power sources to drive the transverse swing of the water pipeline, thereby effectively improving the reliability of the water spraying mechanism 10, also reducing its production cost, and also not producing other noise to reduce the user experience, and will not bring other impacts to the structure layout of the whole machine. In addition, since there is a movable member inside the water spraying mechanism 10, the risk of water scale inside the water spraying mechanism 10 is also reduced; and the realization of swing cleaning also helps to improve the cleaning area and cleaning rate, thereby reducing the demand of the water spraying mechanism 10 for large flow, which is helpful to realize the first level water, so as to greatly improve the user's cleaning experience, while also saving water resources; and the overall structure of the water spraying mechanism 10 is relatively simple, which will be more convenient for the assembly and layout of each component, and the cost is also lower.

[0042] In an embodiment, the rotating member 12 further includes a support rod 122 and an impeller 123, and the impeller 123 includes at least two blades (not labeled in the figure), and the at least two blades are correspondingly spaced apart on the side wall of the support rod 122 perpendicular to the first direction Z. In the process of introducing water in the external water channel or water in the external water storage mechanism into the accommodation cavity 1101 inside the shell 11 through the first water inlet pipeline 101, the water flow will be directly impacted by the impeller 123, thereby driving the rotating member 12 to rotate around its central axis, so that the water flow passing through the water passage inside the nozzle member 13 and sprayed by the first water outlet pipeline 102 can correspondingly realize the spiral water effect.

[0043] Further, in an embodiment, the water spraying mechanism 10 further comprises a rotating shaft 14, one end of which is specifically connected to the inner side wall of the accommodating cavity 1101 of the shell 11 facing the first water outlet pipe 102, and the connecting hole (not shown in the figure) is further provided on the outer side wall of the supporting rod 122 of the rotating member 12 corresponding to the rotating shaft 14, and the other end of the rotating shaft 14 is specifically embedded in the connecting hole to be rotatably connected to the rotating member 12, so that the impeller 123 of the rotating member 12 can be more conveniently rotated relative to the rotating shaft 14 by the water flow.

[0044] Optionally, the connecting hole can be a blind hole or a through hole, which is not limited in the application.

[0045] Optionally, the impeller 123 is specifically spaced from the inner side wall of the accommodating cavity 1101 of the shell 11 facing the first water outlet pipe 102, so as to avoid direct contact between the impeller 123 and the inner side wall of the shell 11, thereby avoiding mutual friction between the impeller 123 and the inner side wall of the shell 11 during rotation of the rotating member 12, affecting the rotation of the impeller 123, and causing wear.

[0046] Optionally, the impeller 123 can further comprise 4, 6 or 5 or any reasonable number of blades (not shown in the figure), one end of each blade is uniformly connected to one side wall of the supporting rod 122 of the rotating member 12, and each blade is in the form of an arc-shaped plate, which is not limited in the application.

[0047] The above scheme uses water as a power source without the need for other power devices to provide driving, effectively improving the reliability of the mechanism during operation and reducing production costs, while also not generating vibration noise to reduce user experience, and not adversely affecting the structure layout of the whole machine. In addition, the rotating member 12 is arranged inside the water spraying mechanism 10, which reduces the risk of water scale inside the nozzle, avoids the addition of other power devices such as vibration motors, and effectively avoids the need for waterproofing and damping of the vibration motor, thereby further reducing the manufacturing cost of the water spraying mechanism 10.

[0048] In another embodiment, the impeller 123 can not be arranged on the outer side wall of the supporting rod 122 of the rotating member 12, and the end of the supporting rod 122 away from the nozzle member 13 can be specifically connected to a transmission shaft (not shown in the figure) driven by an external motor, so as to drive the rotating member 12 to rotate around the central shaft, which is not limited in the application.

[0049] Please continue to refer to Figure 6 , Figure 6 is Figure 1 a detailed structure diagram of an embodiment of the first shell in the water spraying mechanism.

[0050] In an embodiment, the shell 11 further comprises a first shell 111 and a second shell 112, and a first recess (not shown) is further arranged on a first side (not shown) of the first shell 111, and a second recess (not shown) is further arranged on a second side (not shown) of the second shell 112, so that the first recess and the second recess can be matched with each other when the first side of the first shell 111 is connected to the second side of the second shell 112, and a receiving cavity 1101 inside the shell 11 is formed.

[0051] Optionally, the second shell 112 can be detachably connected to the first shell 111, so as to facilitate the disassembly and cleaning of the first shell 111 and the second shell 112; the second shell 112 can also be fixedly connected to the first shell 111, for example, the second shell 112 is connected to the first shell 111 by welding; and the second shell 112 and the first shell 111 can also be an integrally formed member, which is not limited in the present application.

[0052] In an embodiment, the shell 11 in the water spraying mechanism 10 further comprises a bottom cover 113, and the bottom cover 113 is connected to a third side (not shown) of the first shell 111 away from the second shell 112, so as to close the first recess, wherein the rotating shaft 14 for rotatingly connecting the rotating member 12 is connected to the middle position of the bottom cover 113 and is arranged to extend along the first direction Z.

[0053] In an embodiment, a second water inlet pipe 103 is further arranged on one side of the first shell 111, and a second water outlet pipe 104 is further arranged on one side of the second shell 112.

[0054] In the first shell 111, a second water flow channel 1102 is further formed, and the second water inlet pipe 103 and the second water outlet pipe 104 are connected to the second water flow channel 1102.

[0055] It can be understood that the second water inlet pipe 103, the second water flow channel 1102 and the second water outlet pipe 104 correspondingly constitute a water spraying channel, which is independent of and not connected to the water spraying channel constituted by the first water inlet pipe 101, the receiving cavity 1101, the water passing pipe and the first water outlet pipe 102, so as to be able to be independently controlled for cleaning different parts of the user.

[0056] Similarly, a third water inlet pipe 105, a third water flow channel (not shown) and a third water outlet pipe 106 can be further arranged in the first shell 111 and the second shell 112 to constitute another independent water spraying channel or more independent water spraying channels, which will not be described one by one here.

[0057] Optionally, the first water inlet pipe 101, the second water inlet pipe 103, the third water inlet pipe 105, the first water outlet pipe 102, the second water outlet pipe 104 and the third water outlet pipe 106 can be detachably connected to the outer side walls of the first shell 111 and the second shell 112, so that they can be detached and cleaned after being used for a period of time, thereby further reducing the possibility of clogging of the water spraying channel.

[0058] Please continue to refer to Figure 7 , Figure 7 is Figure 1 a detailed structure diagram of an embodiment of the nozzle part in the water spraying mechanism.

[0059] In an embodiment, the other end of the nozzle part 13 away from the first water outlet pipe 102 corresponds to the first limiting column 121 and is provided with a first limiting hole 1301, and the first limiting column 121 of the rotating part 12 is embedded in the first limiting hole 1301, so as to connect the rotating part 12 to the nozzle part 13.

[0060] Optionally, the inner side wall of the water passing channel of the nozzle part 13 is at least partially arc-shaped, so as to facilitate the circulation of the corresponding water flow.

[0061] Optionally, the outer side wall of the other end of the nozzle part 13 away from the first water outlet pipe 102 is specifically spherical, so as to ensure that the first limiting column 121 of the rotating part 12 can drive the nozzle to rotate by 360 degrees.

[0062] It can be understood that when the water flow enters the accommodating cavity 1101 inside the shell 11 from the first water inlet pipe 101, the water pressure pushes the impeller 123 to rotate, that is, the rotating part 12 rotates around the central axis, and then the first limiting column 121 drives the nozzle part 13 to rotate around the spherical center corresponding to the spherical surface of the other end of the nozzle part 13, so that the water column sprayed from the water passing channel inside the nozzle part 13 forms a spiral water spray effect, and the greater the water inflow, the faster the rotation rate of the impeller 123, and the faster the rotation of the nozzle.

[0063] Optionally, the outer side wall of the other end of the nozzle part 13 away from the first water outlet pipe 102 is provided with a protruding part 131, and the first limiting hole 1301 is formed on the protruding part 131, and the central axis of the first limiting hole 1301 is parallel to the central axis of the water passing channel of the nozzle part 13 and located on a different straight line.

[0064] Optionally, the outer side wall of the nozzle piece 13 is specifically gourd-shaped, and the outer side wall of the other end of the nozzle piece 13 away from the first water outlet pipeline 102 is further provided with a water inlet 1302, which is specifically directed to be perpendicular to the first direction Z, so as to more conveniently enter the water passing channel inside the nozzle piece 13 when the external water flow enters the accommodating cavity 1101 inside the shell 11 from the first water inlet pipeline 101, and then is sprayed from the first water outlet pipeline 102.

[0065] In an embodiment, the water spraying mechanism 10 specifically further comprises a sealing ring 15 (not shown in the figure), which is specifically sleeved on the outer side wall of the nozzle piece 13, and the outer side wall thereof corresponds to abut on the inner side wall of the first water outlet pipeline 102, and the sealing ring corresponds to interference fit with the nozzle piece 13 and the inner side wall of the first water outlet pipeline 102, so that the outer side wall of the nozzle piece 13 can be more tightly connected with the inner side wall of the first water outlet pipeline 102, thereby effectively preventing the water flow in the accommodating cavity 1101 from flowing out from the gap between the nozzle piece 13 and the first water outlet pipeline 102.

[0066] Please continue to refer to Figures 8-9 , wherein, Figure 8 is an exploded schematic view of the second embodiment of the water spraying mechanism of the present application, Figure 9 is Figure 8 is a sectional view of the water spraying mechanism in The water spraying mechanism in the embodiment is different from the first embodiment of the water spraying mechanism in the present application in that the water spraying mechanism 20 further comprises a connecting rod 26.

[0067] Specifically, the nozzle piece 23 is further provided with a second limiting column 231 on the side away from the first water outlet pipeline 202, and one end of the connecting rod 26 is specifically further provided with a first limiting hole 2601 corresponding to the first limiting column 221 on the rotating piece 22, and the other end is further provided with a second limiting hole 2602 corresponding to the second limiting column 231 of the nozzle piece 23. The first limiting column 221 of the rotating piece 22 is embedded in the first limiting hole 2601, and the second limiting column 231 of the nozzle piece 23 is correspondingly embedded in the second limiting hole 2602, so as to connect the rotating piece 22 and the nozzle piece 23.

[0068] In an embodiment, the rotating member 22 further comprises a supporting rod 222 and an impeller 223, and the impeller 223 comprises at least two blades (not shown in the figure), which are correspondingly spaced on the side wall of the supporting rod 222 in the first direction Z, so as to be directly impacted by the water flow in the process of introducing the water in the external water channel or the water in the external water storage mechanism into the accommodating cavity 2101 inside the shell 11 by the first water inlet pipe 201, thereby driving the rotating member 22 to rotate around the central axis, so that the first limiting column 221 can drive the connecting rod 26 to rotate synchronously, and the other end of the nozzle member 23 is driven by the connecting rod 26 to rotate around the first direction Z, so that the water flow passing through the water passage inside the nozzle member 23 and being sprayed by the first water outlet pipe 102 can correspondingly realize the spiral water outlet effect.

[0069] It can be understood that, as shown in Figure 10 , Figure 10 is Figure 9 a detailed cross-sectional view of the rotating member in the water spraying mechanism, and the distance between the central axis of the first limiting column 221 in the rotating member 22 and the central axis of the rotating member 22 corresponds to L2, so that when the rotating member 22 rotates around the central axis, the nozzle member 23 is driven by the connecting rod 26 to rotate around the first direction Z, and the greater the distance L2 between the central axis of the first limiting column 221 and the central axis of the rotating member 22, the greater the rotating angle of the nozzle member 23, and the greater the spiral water column sprayed from the nozzle member 23, and vice versa. The distance L2 is smaller, the spiral water column is smaller, so that different spiral water outlet effects can be realized by adjusting the distance L2 between the central axis of the first limiting column 221 and the central axis of the rotating member 22.

[0070] Further, in an embodiment, the connecting rod 26 further comprises a first connecting portion (not shown in the figure), a second connecting portion (not shown in the figure) and a third connecting portion (not shown in the figure), one end of the second connecting portion is connected to the first connecting portion, the other end of the second connecting portion extends along a curve to be connected to the second connecting portion, and the first connecting portion is parallel to the second connecting portion and is arranged along the second direction X, so as to facilitate the layout and accommodation of the rotating member 22 and the nozzle member 23 in the accommodating cavity 2101 inside the shell 21.

[0071] The second direction X is perpendicular to the first direction Z, and the first limiting hole 2601 and the second limiting hole 2602 are respectively arranged on the first connecting portion and the third connecting portion.

[0072] In an embodiment, the shell 21 further comprises a first shell 211 and a second shell 212, and a first recess is further arranged on a first side of the first shell 211, and a second recess is arranged on a second side of the second shell 212, so that when the first side of the first shell 211 is connected to the second side of the second shell 212, the first recess and the second recess can be matched with each other to form a containing cavity 2101 inside the shell 21. In addition, a step surface is arranged on the first recess in the first shell 211, and the third connecting part of the connecting rod 26 abuts against the step surface, so that the connection between the rotating part 22 and the nozzle part 23 can be more stable.

[0073] Please continue to refer to Figure 11 , Figure 11 is Figure 9 a detailed structure diagram of an embodiment of the nozzle part in the water spraying mechanism.

[0074] In an embodiment, the inner side wall of the water passing channel of the nozzle part 23 is at least partially arc-shaped, and a water inlet 2301 is further arranged on the outer side wall of the other end of the nozzle part 23 away from the first water outlet pipe 202, and the second limiting column 231 on the nozzle part 23 is specifically located on the straight line where the central axis is located, so as to facilitate the embedding of the second limiting column 231 of the nozzle part 23 in the second limiting hole 2602.

[0075] Optionally, the outer side wall of the other end of the nozzle part 23 away from the first water outlet pipe 202 is specifically spherical, so as to ensure that the first limiting column 221 of the rotating part 22 can drive the nozzle to rotate by 360 degrees.

[0076] It can be understood that when the water flow enters the containing cavity 2101 inside the shell 21 from the first water inlet pipe 201, the impeller 223 is pushed to rotate due to the water pressure, that is, the rotating part 22 is self-rotated around the central axis, and the first limiting column 221 on the rotating part 22 drives the nozzle part 23 to rotate around the spherical center corresponding to the spherical surface of the other end of the nozzle part 23 through the connecting rod 26, so that the water column sprayed from the water passing channel inside the nozzle part 23 forms a spiral water spray effect, and the greater the water inflow, the faster the rotation rate of the impeller 223, and the faster the rotation of the nozzle.

[0077] It can be understood that in the embodiment, the second shell 212, the second water inlet pipe 203, the second water outlet pipe 204, the third water inlet pipe 205, the third water outlet pipe 206, the rotating shaft 24, the bottom cover 213 and the sealing part 25 are respectively the same as the second shell 112, the second water inlet pipe 103, the second water outlet pipe 104, the third water inlet pipe 105, the third water outlet pipe 106, the rotating shaft 14, the bottom cover 113 and the sealing part 15. For details, please refer to Figures 1-7 and the related text content, which will not be repeated here.

[0078] The application also provides a smart toilet, please refer to Figure 12 , Figure 12 is a frame schematic diagram of an embodiment of the smart toilet of the application. In this embodiment, the smart toilet 30 comprises a water spraying mechanism 31 and a water storage mechanism 32.

[0079] Specifically, the water spraying mechanism 31 further comprises a first water inlet pipe 311, which is connected to the water storage mechanism 32 to introduce the water stored in the water storage mechanism 32 into the housing of the water spraying mechanism 31, and then the water is sprayed by other components of the water spraying mechanism 31.

[0080] The water spraying mechanism 31 is specifically the water spraying mechanism 10 or the water spraying mechanism 20 as described in any of the above, please refer to Figures 1-11 and the related text content, which will not be repeated here.

[0081] The application has the following beneficial effects: Unlike the prior art, the housing of the water spraying mechanism of the application forms a receiving cavity, the first water inlet pipe and the first water outlet pipe are respectively arranged on the adjacent two side surfaces of the housing, and the receiving cavity communicates the first water inlet pipe and the first water outlet pipe; the rotating member is arranged in the receiving cavity, and a first limiting column is further arranged on the side surface of the rotating member facing the first water outlet pipe, and the first limiting column is parallel to the central axis of the rotating member and located on a different straight line from the central axis of the rotating member; and the nozzle member is also arranged in the receiving cavity, and a water passing channel is formed in the nozzle member, the outer side wall of one end of the nozzle member is connected to the inner side wall of the first water outlet pipe, and the other end is connected to the first limiting column, so that when the rotating member rotates around the central axis, the first limiting column can drive the other end of the nozzle member to rotate around the first direction Z synchronously, so that the water column sprayed by the nozzle member presents a spiral effect, and the water passing pipe does not need to be driven to swing transversely by other power sources, thereby effectively improving the reliability of the water spraying mechanism, reducing the production cost, and also not producing other noise to reduce the user experience, and not affecting the structure layout of the whole machine. In addition, since there is a movable member in the water spraying mechanism, the risk of water scale accumulation in the water spraying mechanism is also reduced; and the realization of swing cleaning also helps to improve the cleaning area and the cleaning rate, thereby reducing the demand for large flow of the water spraying mechanism, which helps to realize the first level of water school, so as to greatly improve the user cleaning experience while saving water resources; and the overall structure of the water spraying mechanism is relatively simple, which is more convenient for assembling and arranging the components, and the realization cost is also lower.
