Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This article relates to, but is not limited to, the field of toilet equipment technology, and in particular to a toilet base installation structure and a toilet. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, when installing toilet offset devices, the process typically involves first installing the offset device on the floor and then attaching the toilet body. During installation, the toilet's drain outlet often misaligns with the offset device's inlet, leading to leaks. Alternatively, the toilet body may require repeated adjustments to the offset device's inlet and the toilet's drain outlet to achieve proper alignment, making installation difficult. Summary of the Invention
[0003] This application provides a toilet base mounting structure and a toilet. The base positions the inlet of the offset device, eliminating the need to repeatedly adjust the position of the offset device and the toilet body to align the toilet body's drain outlet with the offset device's inlet. Simply fixing the toilet body to the base achieves precise alignment between the toilet body and the offset device, ensuring that the toilet body's drain outlet and the offset device's inlet are aligned to prevent leaks and improve toilet installation efficiency.
[0004] This application provides a toilet base mounting structure, including: a base and a shifter; the base is configured to support and fix the toilet body, the base including an annular body, the annular body having a positioning part inside; one end of the shifter has a sewage inlet and a positioning mating part, and the other end has a sewage discharge part; the sewage inlet has a sewage inlet, the sewage discharge part has a sewage discharge outlet, the sewage inlet is configured to communicate with the sewage outlet of the toilet body, and the sewage discharge outlet is configured to communicate with an external sewage outlet; the positioning mating part is configured to cooperate with the positioning part to position the sewage inlet; the positioning mating part is rotatable relative to the positioning part, and the rotation axis of the positioning mating part is collinear with the central axis of the sewage inlet.
[0005] This application also provides a toilet, including: a toilet body; and a toilet base mounting structure as described in any of the above embodiments, wherein the toilet body is mounted on the toilet base mounting structure, and a shifter of the toilet base mounting structure is connected to the toilet body.
[0006] In related technologies, the reason why the sewage outlet of the toilet body and the sewage inlet of the offset device do not align or the alignment process is time-consuming and laborious is that the toilet body is relatively bulky and the field of vision is limited, so the installation process of the toilet body needs to be blind. Moreover, after the offset device is installed on the ground, it is not precisely positioned, and the sewage inlet of the offset device is prone to shaking or rotation, which can cause the sewage outlet of the toilet body and the sewage inlet of the offset device to misalign, resulting in water leakage. Alternatively, the positions of the offset device and the toilet body need to be repeatedly adjusted to align the sewage outlet of the toilet body and the sewage inlet of the offset device, making the installation process time-consuming and laborious.
[0007] Compared with related technologies, the toilet base installation structure and toilet provided in this application embodiment allow for precise positioning of the offset device's inlet during toilet installation. The offset device's outlet is connected and fixed to an external outlet, preventing the inlet from shaking or rotating during subsequent toilet body installation. This avoids the inlet from shifting or rotating during toilet body installation, allowing the toilet body to be directly fixed to the base. This ensures the toilet body's outlet aligns with the offset device's inlet, eliminating the need for repeated adjustments to align the outlet. This facilitates quick and accurate connection between the toilet body and the offset device, preventing leaks and improving installation efficiency.
[0008] Other features and advantages of this application will be set forth in the following description, and will be apparent in part from the description, or may be learned by practicing the application. Other advantages of this application can be realized and obtained by means of the solutions described in the description and the accompanying drawings. Attached Figure Description

[0032] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present invention clearer, the embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be arbitrarily combined with each other.
[0033] In related technologies, the reason why the drain outlet of the toilet body and the drain outlet of the offset device do not align or the alignment process is time-consuming and laborious is that: the toilet body is relatively bulky and the field of vision is limited, so the installation process of the toilet body needs to be blind. Moreover, after the offset device is installed on the ground, it is not precisely positioned, and the drain inlet of the offset device is prone to shaking or rotation, which can cause the drain outlet of the toilet body and the drain inlet of the offset device to misalign, resulting in water leakage. Alternatively, the positions of the offset device and the toilet body need to be repeatedly adjusted to align the drain outlet of the toilet body and the drain inlet of the offset device, making the installation process time-consuming and laborious.
[0034] Therefore, such as Figures 1 to 3 , Figure 12 , Figure 13 As shown, this application embodiment provides a toilet base mounting structure, including: a base 1 and a shifter 2. The base 1 is configured to support and fix the toilet body 3. The base 1 includes an annular body 13, as shown... Figures 1 to 4 As shown. A positioning part 12 is provided inside the annular main body 13. For example... Figures 7 to 10 As shown, one end of the shifter 2 is provided with a sewage inlet 21 and a positioning mating part 23, and the other end is provided with a sewage outlet 22. The sewage inlet 21 is provided with a sewage inlet 212, and the sewage outlet 22 is provided with a sewage outlet 223. The sewage inlet 212 is configured to communicate with the sewage outlet 34 of the toilet body 3, and the sewage outlet 223 is configured to communicate with the external sewage outlet 41. Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown. The positioning mating part 23 is configured to mate with the positioning part 12 to position the sewage inlet 212, as follows. Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 6As shown. The positioning and fitting part 23 can rotate relative to the positioning part 12, and the rotation axis of the positioning and fitting part 23 is collinear with the central axis of the sewage inlet 212, as shown. Figure 7 As shown.
[0035] The toilet base mounting structure provided in this application embodiment allows for the installation of the base 1 and the offset device 2 (e.g., during toilet installation) first. Figure 3 and Figure 4 (As shown), then install the toilet body 3. During the installation of the base 1 and the offset device 2, the positioning mating part 23 can rotate relative to the positioning part 12, so that the offset device 2 can rotate relative to the base 1 with the positioning mating part 23 as the fulcrum. This facilitates the adjustment of the offset device 2's position according to the position of the external drain outlet 41, ensuring that the drain outlet 223 of the offset device 2 is precisely aligned with the external drain outlet 41. However, the relative position of the inlet 212 of the offset device 2 and the base 1 can remain unchanged during the rotation process to ensure that the toilet body 3 is in the appropriate position after the entire toilet is installed. After the base 1 and the offset device 2 are installed, the fixed connection between the drain outlet 22 of the offset device 2 and the external drain outlet 41 can be used to achieve precise positioning and fixation of the drain outlet 22. The cooperation between the positioning part 12 of the base 1 and the positioning mating part 23 of the offset device 2 can achieve precise positioning and fixation of the inlet 21, thereby achieving precise positioning of the inlet 212 of the offset device 2. Figure 3 As shown. In this way, during the subsequent installation of the toilet body 3, the inlet 212 of the offset device 2 can be prevented from shaking or rotating. The toilet body 3 can be directly fixed to the base 1, ensuring that the outlet 34 of the toilet body 3 is aligned with the inlet 212 of the offset device 2. This eliminates the need to repeatedly adjust the positions of the offset device 2 and the toilet body 3 to align the outlet 34 of the toilet body 3 with the inlet 212 of the offset device 2. This facilitates a quick and accurate connection between the toilet body 3 and the offset device 2, preventing leaks and improving the installation efficiency of the toilet.
[0036] In some exemplary embodiments, the base 1 is configured to be fixedly connected to the mounting carrier 4 and to the toilet body 3, so as to support the toilet body 3 and be fixedly connected to the toilet body 3, such as... Figure 10 As shown. The toilet body 3 can be, but is not limited to, a ceramic component. The mounting carrier 4 refers to the carrier used to support the toilet, which can be, but is not limited to, the ground. The mounting carrier 4 is equipped with an external drain outlet 41, such as... Figure 4 and Figure 15 As shown. The drain port 223 of the shifter 2 is configured to connect with the external drain port 41, as shown. Figure 6 and Figure 17 As shown, it then connects to the external sewage discharge channel.
[0037] This is equivalent to replacing the lower part of the toilet body in the relevant technology with the base support 1, retaining only the upper part of the toilet body 3. Therefore, it is beneficial to reduce the volume and weight of the toilet body 3, which can reduce the difficulty of manufacturing and shaping the toilet body 3, improve the yield rate of the toilet body 3, and also reduce the difficulty of toilet installation, thus improving the installation efficiency of the toilet.
[0038] Furthermore, the base 1 can be processed with other structures to accommodate the installation of the toilet body 3 and other functional components, thereby helping to optimize the structural layout of the toilet.
[0039] For example, the base 1 can be designed with an installation notch so that the toilet's water inlet pipe / power cord can extend from the left or right side of the toilet. This avoids the need to drill holes in the side wall of the toilet body 3, which helps to improve the strength and aesthetics of the toilet body 3.
[0040] Of course, the toilet body 3 can also be made of other materials, such as resin, which would help to further reduce the weight of the toilet body 3.
[0041] In some exemplary embodiments, the shifter 2 can be a scalable shifter, such as... Figure 6 As shown, the sewage inlet 21 and the sewage outlet 22 are connected by a retractable structure, so that the horizontal distance between the sewage inlet 212 and the sewage outlet 223 can be adjusted by the pull-out shifter 2 to adapt to different pit distance installation scenarios.
[0042] In some exemplary embodiments, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the shape of the annular body 13 can be adapted to the bottom shape of the toilet body 3, and is roughly a rounded rectangular structure that is narrower at the front and wider at the back. The positioning part 12 and the sewage discharge part 22 are located on the inner side of the annular body 13, as shown. Figure 2 As shown, the width of the front part of the inner wall 131 of the annular body 13 is greater than the outer diameter of the sewage discharge part 22, and the length of the inner wall 131 of the annular body 13 is greater than the minimum length of the shifter 2. The length of the inner wall 131 of the annular body 13 can also be greater than the maximum length of the shifter 2.
[0043] Since the drain outlet 34 of the toilet body 3 is usually located at the rear of the toilet body 3, the drain inlet 212 of the shifter 2 is located behind the drain outlet 223, such as Figure 2As shown. When the width of the front part of the inner wall 131 of the annular body 13 is greater than the outer diameter of the drain part 22, the drain part 22 can rotate left and right relative to the base 1 on the front part of the inner side of the annular body 13 to adapt to the external drain outlet 41 in different positions. When the length of the inner wall 131 of the annular body 13 is greater than the minimum length of the shifter 2 (i.e., the length when retracted to its shortest length), the drain part 22 of the shifter 2 can move back and forth relative to the base 1 on the inner side of the annular body 13 to perform a telescopic operation. In this way, the relative position of the drain inlet 212 and the drain outlet 223 of the shifter 2 can be flexibly adjusted within a large range, thereby improving the versatility of the toilet base installation structure for different installation scenarios.
[0044] In some exemplary embodiments (such as...) Figures 1 to 11 As shown), the positioning part 12 is located inside the annular body 13 and is biased towards one side (left or right) of the width direction of the toilet body 3, so that the sewage inlet 212 is biased towards one side (left or right) of the width direction of the toilet body 3 to match the eccentric sewage outlet (i.e., the eccentrically set sewage outlet 34) of the toilet body 3.
[0045] For example: in Figures 1 to 6 In the illustrated embodiment, the positioning part 12 is biased to the left so that the sewage inlet 212 is biased to the left side of the toilet body 3.
[0046] This allows it to be compatible with the toilet body 3, where the sewage outlet 34 is offset. Figure 11 As shown, the drain outlet 34 of the toilet body 3 is not located in the exact center of the width direction of the toilet body 3, but is biased to the left or right side of the toilet body 3.
[0047] For example: Figure 11 As shown, the toilet body 3 includes a toilet seat 31 and a tilting and flushing mechanism disposed within the toilet seat 31. The tilting and flushing mechanism includes a flushing box 32 and a rotating flushing pipe 33 disposed within the flushing box 32. The inlet of the rotating flushing pipe 33 is connected to the waste outlet of the toilet seat 31 and can rotate around the central axis of the waste outlet. The flushing box 32 has an eccentrically positioned flushing outlet 34, which is connected to the waste inlet 212 of the shifter 2. The rotating flushing pipe 33 rotates downward from the initial flushing position (vertical state) to the flushing position at an angle of less than 180°. When the rotating flushing pipe 33 rotates to the flushing position, the outlet end of the rotating flushing pipe 33 faces the flushing outlet 34, and waste enters the shifter 2 through the flushing outlet 34, and is then discharged into the external sewage channel. In this design, the flushing outlet 34 of the toilet body 3 is offset to one side in the width direction of the toilet body 3.
[0048] In other exemplary embodiments (such as...) Figures 12 to 17As shown), the base 1 is located inside the annular body 13 and at the center of the width direction of the toilet body 3, so that the waste inlet 212 is located at the center of the width direction of the toilet body 3, as shown. Figures 12 to 17 As shown, the drain outlet is adapted to the center of the toilet body 3 (i.e., the drain outlet 34 is located in the exact center of the width direction of the toilet body 3 and is not eccentrically positioned).
[0049] This allows for the adaptation of toilet body 3 with non-eccentrically positioned drain outlet 34, meaning that the drain outlet 34 of toilet body 3 is located in the exact center of the width of toilet body 3, which is the conventional toilet setting.
[0050] In some exemplary embodiments (such as...) Figures 1 to 11 As shown), the positioning part 12 is provided on the inner sidewall 131 of the annular body 13, as... Figure 2 As shown.
[0051] The positioning part 12 can be located on the left (left side wall) or right (right side wall) of the inner side wall 131 of the annular body 13, which facilitates adaptation to the toilet body 3 with the sewage outlet 34 eccentrically positioned. Figures 1 to 6 In the illustrated embodiment, the positioning part 12 is located on the left side of the inner sidewall 131 of the annular body 13.
[0052] Alternatively, the positioning part 12 can also be located at the rear part (i.e., the rear side wall) of the inner side wall 131 of the annular body 13, which facilitates the adaptation of the toilet body 3 with the sewage outlet 34 not being eccentrically positioned.
[0053] In other exemplary embodiments (such as...) Figures 12 to 17 As shown, the base support 1 also includes an extension plate 14, which is connected to the inner sidewall 131 of the annular body 13 and protrudes toward the center of the annular body 13. The positioning part 12 is provided on the extension plate 14.
[0054] The extension plate 14 can be connected to the rear side wall of the annular body 13 and extend forward, which facilitates the formation of a regular structure for the base support 1 (which can be symmetrical). This makes it easier to adapt to the toilet body 3 with the sewage outlet 34 not eccentrically positioned.
[0055] Of course, the extension plate 14 can also extend from the left or right side wall of the annular body 13 in the left-right direction, and can also be adapted to the toilet body 3 with the sewage outlet 34 set eccentrically.
[0056] Alternatively, the base 1 can be equipped with a base plate with a drain hole to ensure that the drain outlet of the shifter 2 can be connected to the external drain outlet 41. The positioning part 12 is located at the corresponding position on the base plate to accommodate the off-center or non-off-center arrangement of the drain outlet 34 of the toilet body 3.
[0057] In some embodiments, the base support 1 may also be provided with multiple positioning parts 12 at different positions to improve the versatility of the base support 1 and adapt to different toilet bodies 3.
[0058] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in an exemplary embodiment, the positioning part 12 includes a positioning groove 121, and the positioning mating part 23 includes a positioning post 231, which is inserted into the positioning groove 121. The positioning post 231 can be a hollow post. Specifically, the positioning part 12 and the positioning mating part 23 are configured such that the positioning groove 121 and the positioning post 231 are mutually inserted and mated. Positioning can be achieved simply by inserting the positioning post 231 into the positioning groove 121. This structure is simple in design and easy to operate. Of course, the positioning and mating method of the positioning part 12 and the positioning mating part 23 of the toilet in this application is not limited to this. For example, the positions of the positioning groove 121 and the positioning post 231 can be interchanged, or a snap-fit structure or other methods can be used.
[0059] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the positioning post 231 is rotatably inserted into the positioning groove 121. Specifically, the positioning post 231 and the positioning groove 121 are configured to be rotatably inserted, allowing the shifter 2 to rotate relative to the base 1 during installation. This allows the positioning post 231 to be partially inserted into the positioning groove 121 first, then the position of the drain section of the shifter 2 to be precisely aligned with the external drain outlet 41. Then, the shifter 2 is pressed to install it into place. After pressing, the shifter 2 is restricted from rotating, thus fixing it to the base 1.
[0060] Figure 4 An exploded view of the toilet base mounting structure according to an embodiment of this application is shown in an installation scenario. Figure 5 for Figure 4 A partially enlarged structural diagram of part A. Figures 7 to 10 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a shifter 2 according to an embodiment of this application. Figure 5 As shown, the positioning groove 121 is a circular groove; as Figure 8 and Figure 10 As shown, the positioning post 231 is provided with an arc surface 2311 and a straight surface 2312 connected sequentially along the circumference of the positioning groove 121. The arc surface 2311 is fitted with the groove wall of the positioning groove 121 with a clearance so that the positioning post 231 can rotate relative to the positioning groove 121.
[0061] Specifically, such as Figure 10As shown, the side wall of the positioning post 231 of the shifter 2 is configured to include an arc surface 2311 and a straight surface 2312 connected sequentially along the circumference, instead of a complete cylindrical surface. This reduces the contact area between the positioning groove 121 and the positioning post 231, thereby reducing the friction between them and facilitating the rotation of the positioning post 231 relative to the positioning groove. Of course, the side wall of the positioning post 231 can also be a cylindrical surface or other shapes, as long as a rotatable positioning fit can be achieved.
[0062] In one exemplary embodiment, the drain outlet 223 and the inlet outlet 212 are horizontally offset. The positioning post 231 is located directly below the inlet outlet 212, as shown below. Figure 7 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, the rotation axis of the positioning column 231 is collinear with the central axis of the sewage inlet 212.
[0063] In some embodiments, the central axis of the positioning groove 121 is collinear with the central axis of the inlet 212. The bottom of the inlet 21 is configured as a guide slope 211, such as... Figure 6 and Figure 10 As shown, the guide wall 211 is configured to guide the sewage flow towards the discharge section 22. The positioning post 231 is located on the outer wall surface of the guide wall 211.
[0064] The relative position between the central axis of the positioning groove 121 and the central axis of the external drain outlet 41 can be determined based on the relative position between the central axis of the inlet 212 and the central axis of the outlet 223 of the shifter 2. This determines the position of the base 1 on the mounting carrier 4. After the base 1 and the shifter 2 are fixed, the positioning post 231 of the shifter 2 is inserted into the positioning groove 121, and the drain section 22 of the shifter 2 is connected and fixed to the external drain outlet 41 (e.g., the drain pipe 222 of the drain section 22 is inserted into the external drain outlet 41). Thus, the shifter 2 cannot rotate relative to the base 1, achieving relative fixation between the shifter 2 and the base 1.
[0065] like Figure 5 As shown, in an exemplary embodiment, the groove wall of the positioning groove 121 is provided with a plurality of reinforcing ribs 122, which are spaced apart circumferentially along the positioning groove 121 to reduce the contact area between the positioning post 231 and the positioning part 12 and to reduce the gap between the positioning post 231 and the positioning part 12.
[0066] The reinforcing rib 122 not only enhances the strength of the positioning part 12, thus strengthening it, but also reduces the contact area between the positioning groove 121 and the positioning post 231, thereby reducing friction between them and facilitating the rotation of the positioning post 231 relative to the positioning groove 121. Furthermore, with the outer diameter of the positioning post 231 fixed, the inner diameter of the positioning groove 121 can be set relatively large, allowing the positioning post 231 to be quickly and smoothly inserted into the positioning groove 121, reducing installation difficulty. The reinforcing rib 122 also fills part of the gap between the positioning post 231 and the groove wall of the positioning groove 121, reducing the gap and preventing the positioning post 231 from tilting, shaking, or shifting relative to the base support 1, thereby improving the positioning reliability of the base support 1 for the inlet 212 of the shifter 2.
[0067] like Figure 5 As shown, in an exemplary embodiment, the top end of the reinforcing rib 122 is provided with a guide slope 1221, which is configured to guide the positioning post 231 into the positioning groove 121.
[0068] Specifically, by providing a guide slope 1221 at the top of the reinforcing rib 122 to guide the positioning post 231 into the positioning groove 121, the positioning mating part 23 of the shifter 2 can be inserted more smoothly and quickly into the positioning part 12 of the base 1. This structural design makes the toilet installation operation more convenient and faster. The guide slope 1221 can be provided at the top of one or more reinforcing ribs 122, or it can be provided at the top of all the reinforcing ribs 122 of the positioning part 12.
[0069] like Figure 4 As shown, in an exemplary embodiment, the base 1 includes an annular body 13 arranged circumferentially along the toilet body 3, and a positioning part 12 is provided on the inner sidewall 131 of the annular body 13. The lower end of the positioning part 12 can extend to the lower end face of the annular body 13 and cooperate with the mounting carrier 4.
[0070] In this way, the middle part of the base 1 is hollow, which not only makes it easy to accommodate the shifter 2 and hides the shifter 2, but also reduces the amount of raw materials used in the base 1, which helps to reduce the production cost and weight of the base 1.
[0071] Furthermore, the inner side of the base 1 can be provided with glue application holes 132, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the sealant hole 132 allows for the application of sealant to achieve a sealed connection between the base bracket 1 and the mounting carrier. This allows the sealant application area to be concealed internally, preventing unsightly yellowing of the sealant over time.
[0072] In one exemplary embodiment, such as Figure 6As shown, the inlet 21 abuts against and is supported by the annular body 13, which can further improve the positional stability and reliability of the shifter 2.
[0073] Figure 6 The connection relationships between the shifter 2, the base 1, and the mounting carrier 4 are shown in detail. For example... Figure 7 As shown, the sewage discharge section 22 includes a support plate 221 and a sewage discharge pipe 222 disposed within the support plate 221, with the outlet end of the sewage discharge pipe 222 forming a sewage discharge port 223. Figure 6 As shown, the support plate 221 is located within the annular body 13 and supported by the mounting carrier 4. The drain pipe 222 is inserted into the external drain port 41 to connect with the external drain channel. A sealing element 24 can be installed between the drain pipe 222 and the external drain port 41, such as... Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 9 As shown, this is to improve sealing reliability and prevent leakage. The seal 24 can be sleeved on and limited on the drain pipe 222.
[0074] Specifically, the sewage discharge section 22 is configured to include a support plate 221 and a sewage pipe 222. Utilizing the support and limiting relationship between the support plate 221 and the mounting carrier 4, and the insertion connection between the sewage pipe 222 and the external sewage outlet 41, the shifter 2 can be quickly assembled into position, and the shifter 2 is less prone to tilting or shaking. Furthermore, configuring the sewage discharge section 22 as a two-layer pipework structure of the support plate 221 and the sewage pipe 222 makes the pipe connection between the sewage discharge section 22 and the external sewage outlet 41 safer and less prone to leakage or overflow.
[0075] In other embodiments, the base support 1 may also include a base plate, which is connected to the lower end of the annular body 13. A drain hole corresponding to and communicating with the external drain outlet 41 may be provided on the base plate, and a drain pipe 222 passes through the drain hole and connects with the external drain outlet 41.
[0076] In one exemplary embodiment, the base 1 is made of plastic. Specifically, by making the base 1 a plastic part, the size of the base 1 can be more precisely controlled during production, and the position of the positioning part 12 of the base 1 can be more accurate. This ensures the accuracy of the connection and positioning of the sewage discharge part 22 on the offset device 2. When installing the toilet, it can avoid the offset device 2 being installed in the wrong place, which could lead to the risk of water leakage.
[0077] like Figure 11 As shown in the illustration, this application also provides a toilet, including: a toilet body 3 and a toilet base mounting structure as described in any of the above embodiments. The toilet body 3 is mounted on the toilet base mounting structure. The offset device 2 of the toilet base mounting structure is connected to the toilet body 3, and the sewage outlet 34 of the toilet body 3 is connected to the sewage inlet 212 of the offset device 2.
[0078] The base 1 and the toilet body 3 are separate structures; for example Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the base 1 is fixedly connected to the mounting carrier 4 and to the toilet body 3 to support and fix the toilet body 3. The mounting carrier 4 is a carrier for supporting the toilet and can be, but is not limited to, the ground.
[0079] In related technologies, the toilet body is usually a one-piece structure. When installing the offset adapter, the drain port 223 of the offset adapter is first inserted into the floor drain channel, and then the toilet body (i.e., the toilet body 3) is installed. Because the ceramic body of the one-piece toilet is relatively heavy, blind installation is often used when aligning the drain outlet 34 of the toilet ceramic body with the drain inlet 212 of the offset adapter 2 and installing it on the floor, due to limited visibility for the installer. Because the offset adapter is not precisely positioned, it may twist or wobble, often causing the drain outlet 34 of the toilet body 3 to misalign with the drain inlet 212 of the offset adapter, leading to leaks in the drain pipe, or requiring repeated adjustments to the positions of the offset adapter 2 and the toilet body 3 to achieve alignment, making the installation process time-consuming and laborious.
[0080] The toilet described in this application embodiment has a split structure consisting of a toilet body 3 and a base 1. During installation, the base 1 can be fixed to the mounting carrier 4 first, and then the shifter 2 can be installed and fixed onto the base 1 and the mounting carrier 4. Alternatively, the inlet 21 of the shifter 2 can be pre-installed on the base 1, and the shifter 2 and base 1 can be placed together on the mounting carrier 4. By adjusting the positions of the shifter 2 and base 1, the drain outlet 223 of the shifter 2 can be aligned and connected with the external drain outlet 41 of the mounting carrier 4, and the position of the base 1 can be appropriately adjusted. Then, the base 1 can be fixed to the mounting carrier 4 by applying sealant, or the drain outlet 22 of the shifter 2 can be fixed to the mounting carrier 4 by applying sealant.
[0081] In this way, the drain section 22 of the shifter 2 can accurately connect with the external drain outlet 41, and the inlet section 21 of the shifter 2 is fixed at the positioning section 12 of the base 1 without any instability such as rotation or shaking. Then, the toilet body 3 is installed on the base 1. Through the accurate connection between the toilet body 3 and the base 1, the inlet 212 of the shifter 2's inlet section 21 can accurately connect with the drain outlet 34 of the toilet body 3. Thus, the drain channels of the external drain outlet 41 of the mounting carrier 4, the shifter 2, and the toilet body 3 can be accurately connected.
[0082] Therefore, for the toilet provided in the embodiment of the present application, the installation of the base 1 and the diverter 2 is not blocked by the toilet body 3, with good visibility and facilitating precise fixation. Moreover, the sewage inlet 212 of the diverter 2 is restricted by the base 1 and cannot shake, rotate, etc., which is conducive to the subsequent accurate docking of the toilet body 3 and the diverter 2, thereby improving the accuracy of the docking and connection of the sewage discharge channels during the toilet installation process and helping to avoid the problem of sewage discharge channel leakage.
[0083] Moreover, by setting the toilet as a split structure, the weight of the toilet body 3 is reduced, which is beneficial to the lightweight of the toilet body 3 and also facilitates the installers to carry the toilet.
