[0038] In detail: a toilet seat assembly and disassembly structure, including a body 100 and a seat ring 400, the seat ring can be flipped relative to the body, a first chamber 380 is arranged on one side of the body, a damping device 310 and a joint 320 are arranged in the first chamber, wherein the damping device can be a rotary damper, or a gear box with a rotating shaft, one end of the joint is sleeved on the outer periphery of the damping device and can rotate together, and the joint can also move axially relative to the damping device, a first axial hole 410 is arranged on the seat ring, the other end of the joint can extend out of the first chamber and be inserted into the first axial hole, thus realizing the mechanical connection between the seat ring and the body, and also including a spring 330 matched with the joint, the spring can drive the joint to move toward the first axial hole; also including a button 340, pressing the button can drive the joint to move in the opposite direction of the first axial hole, so that the other end of the joint withdraws from the first axial hole, that is, pressing the button drives the joint to withdraw from the first axial hole, the spring is compressed, and at this time, this end of the seat ring can be separated from the body.

[0039] Preferably, the button includes a connector 341, which is sleeved on the outer periphery of the joint. The button can drive the joint to move synchronously, that is, the movement direction of the button and the joint can be a non-coaxial end. The body is provided with an opening 110, and the button is arranged in the opening. When the seat ring is lowered relative to the body, the opening can be blocked by the seat ring. When the seat ring is flipped up relative to the body, the opening can be pressed, and the button can also be pressed, just to disassemble or install the seat ring. The button also includes a protrusion 342, which can move synchronously with the button, and the protrusion is located on the side of the button facing the second axial hole; it also includes a switch 350 that cooperates with the protrusion. When the other end of the joint withdraws from the first axial hole, the switch can cooperate with the protrusion to connect together, which is equivalent to positioning the button so that the other end of the joint remains out of the first axial hole.

[0040] Furthermore, the switch includes a lock core plate 351 and a lock core ear 352, wherein the lock core ear can rotate relative to the lock core plate, and the lock core ear can hold the protrusion so that the switch fixes the button together.

[0042] When the seat ring is normally installed, the assembly and disassembly assembly is rigidly connected to the main body, the joint is in the extended state, and the joint is inserted into the first axial hole after extending from the main body, so that the seat ring is fixed on the main body. When the seat ring is removed, the button of the assembly is pressed, and the joint is retracted into the main body, so that it exits the first axial hole, so that the seat ring can be detached from the main body. The assembly and disassembly assembly mainly relies on the extension and retraction state switching of the joint to achieve the function of quick disassembly and quick installation of the seat ring. The joint can move and rotate along its axial direction inside the main body. Under the action of the spring elastic force, the joint is always in the extended state; the other end of the joint (the extended end) is connected to the seat ring to transmit torque, and the other side is connected to the damping device (which can also be replaced by a gear box) to transmit torque. The extension and retraction state switching of the joint: Press the button to drive the joint to move axially through the connecting piece. When it moves to the end position, the convex block is self-locked and fixed by the switch, so that the joint is always in the retracted state; press the button again, the switch releases the convex block, and the push rod and the joint return to the extended state under the action of the spring elastic force.

The connecting piece can abut and cooperate with the first inclined surface so that the male end of the PIN needle can move relative to the axis of the second axial hole. When the seat ring is flipped up relative to the main body, the male end and the female end of the PIN needle are relatively separated. At this time, the assembly and disassembly structure at the other end is in a separated state. As long as one end of the seat ring provided with the assembly and disassembly structure is raised, the seat ring can be disassembled from the main body.

[0045] Furthermore, the outer periphery of the female end of the PIN needle is provided with a plurality of first inclined surfaces, the inclined directions of two adjacent first inclined surfaces are opposite, a sink groove 212 is provided at the junction of the low peaks of the two adjacent first inclined surfaces, and the connecting piece can fall into the sink groove. In one embodiment, two connecting pieces and two sink grooves are provided, and a pair of second inclined surfaces 222 are provided on the connecting piece, the inclined directions of the second inclined surfaces are opposite, and the second inclined surfaces can abut and cooperate with the first inclined surfaces. It also includes an annular body 240, and the male end of the PIN needle is sleeved in the annular body, and the male end of the PIN needle can move synchronously with the annular body along the axis of the second shaft hole.
