Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of smart bathroom technology, and in particular to a smart toilet seat and a smart toilet. Background Technology

[0002] Some traditional smart toilet seats are usually equipped with a separate remote control for controlling various functions such as seat heating, washing, and drying.

[0003] However, these remote controls typically rely on built-in batteries. When the batteries run out, users need to find and replace them, or use a dedicated charging cable to wired charge the remote, a cumbersome process that impacts usability. Furthermore, the separate remote controls are often left lying around when not in use, making them easy to lose and disrupting the cleanliness and aesthetics of the bathroom. On the other hand, smart toilet seats usually also have a separate mechanical flush button for manually triggering the flush function when needed. This button is usually exposed on the toilet seat surface, making the toilet seat's appearance less clean and integrated, which deviates from the modern and minimalist design style pursued by smart bathroom products. Simultaneously, the storage of the remote control and the function of the flush button are structurally independent and not effectively integrated, resulting in a less compact product layout and less efficient space utilization.

[0004] The information disclosed above in the background art of this application is only used to understand the background of the concept of this application, and may contain information that does not constitute prior art. Summary of the Invention

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a smart toilet seat and a smart toilet to address the above problems.

[0006] This application provides a smart toilet seat, which includes:

[0007] A mechanism base for mounting onto a toilet seat;

[0008] A water supply device is provided on the mechanism base and is used to flush the toilet bowl of the toilet seat;

[0009] A flushing device, comprising a base mounted on the movement base, a button movably mounted on the base, and a first coil located at the end of the button; and

[0010] The remote control includes a housing and a control panel, a circuit board, a battery, and a second coil that are electrically connected in sequence to the housing. The control panel is used to operate the smart toilet seat.

[0011] The remote control and the button are provided with at least one of the magnetic components so that the remote control can be magnetically connected to the end of the button; when the remote control and the end of the button are magnetically connected, the first coil and the second coil are electromagnetically induced to charge the battery; when the remote control and the button are separated, the button is exposed and can be pressed to activate the water supply device.

[0012] The aforementioned smart toilet seat can achieve at least the following beneficial effects:

[0013] The smart toilet seat provided in this application features a magnetically connected remote control and flushing button. When connected, a first coil at the button's end and a second coil inside the remote control charge the remote control's battery via electromagnetic induction, achieving a convenient and contactless wireless charging method. This avoids the hassle of frequent battery replacements or separate charging cables. Furthermore, when not in use, the remote control can magnetically attach and completely cover the button, concealing the flushing button beneath it. This results in a smooth, clean, and integrated appearance for the smart toilet seat, significantly enhancing the product's visual integrity and aesthetics. When manual flushing is required, the remote control can be magnetically detached from the button, exposing it to the elements. The remote control is exposed for direct pressing to activate the water supply and flush the toilet bowl. This design allows the remote control to integrate charging functionality without interfering with the original mechanical operation of the flushing device, maintaining the independent availability of the button flushing function. It ensures the normal availability of the flushing function when the remote control battery is depleted or the user prefers manual operation. Overall, it optimizes the structural layout and usage logic of the smart toilet seat. Moreover, this design cleverly combines the storage and charging functions of the remote control with the concealment of the flushing device buttons and the operational needs. While ensuring charging convenience and operational reliability, it also achieves a simple and aesthetically pleasing appearance, enhancing the product's practicality and user experience.

[0014] In some embodiments, the housing includes a first housing and a second housing detachably connected to the first housing. The first housing and the second housing enclose a cavity. The circuit board, the battery, and the second coil are all disposed within the cavity. The control panel is disposed on the side of the first housing away from the second housing and exposed to the outside for operation. A guide recess is formed on the side of the second housing opposite to the first housing. A guide protrusion is formed at the end of the button that matches the guide recess. When the remote control is magnetically connected to the end of the button, the guide protrusion extends into the guide recess. By designing the remote control's housing as a detachable first and second housing, it facilitates the assembly, maintenance, or replacement of the circuit board, battery, and second coil within the accommodating cavity. Simultaneously, the guide recess on the second housing matches the guide protrusion at the button end. When the remote control and the button end are magnetically connected, the guide protrusion extends into the guide recess, enabling precise positioning and alignment. This ensures that the first and second coils are in the optimal relative position during charging, thereby improving the efficiency and reliability of electromagnetic induction charging, enhancing the stability of the magnetic connection, and also helping to reduce the risk of the remote control shifting or shaking while in the magnetic state.

[0015] In some embodiments, either the guide recess or the guide protrusion has a positioning protrusion, and the other has a positioning groove. When the remote control is magnetically connected to the button end, the positioning protrusion extends into the positioning groove. By providing a positioning protrusion in one of the guide recesses and the guide protrusion, and a positioning groove in the other, when the remote control is magnetically connected to the button end, the positioning protrusion extends into the positioning groove, achieving more precise circumferential positioning and angle limitation. This further ensures that the first coil and the second coil maintain precise axial and angular alignment during electromagnetic induction charging, thereby significantly improving charging efficiency and stability. Simultaneously, it enhances the anti-torsion and anti-misalignment capabilities of the magnetic connection, preventing the remote control from easily falling off due to rotation or displacement caused by external force while in the magnetically attached state.

[0016] In some embodiments, the flushing device further includes a control board disposed within the base and a spring-loaded button disposed on the control board. The button includes a top cover and a trigger rod connected to the top cover. A positioning protrusion is formed on the side of the top cover facing away from the control board, and the side of the top cover facing away from the positioning protrusion is connected to the trigger rod. The trigger rod is telescopically inserted through the base and aligned with the button. When the remote control is separated from the button, the top cover can be pressed and the trigger rod can be driven to squeeze the button, causing the control board to send a start signal to the water supply device to flush the toilet. When the pressing force on the top cover is removed, the trigger rod can drive the button to reset under the action of the button's spring force. By specifically designing the button to include a top cover and a trigger rod, and forming a positioning protrusion on the side of the top cover facing away from the control panel, the trigger rod is connected to the side of the top cover facing away from the positioning protrusion. The trigger rod is telescopically inserted through the base and aligned with the spring-loaded button on the control panel, allowing the button to be used directly as a mechanical pressing component when the remote control is detached. Pressing the top cover will squeeze the button through the trigger rod, thereby triggering the control panel to send a start signal to the water supply device to execute the flushing action. After the pressing force is removed, the trigger rod can automatically reset the button under the spring force of the button, ensuring the directness, reliability, and convenience of manual flushing operation. At the same time, the positioning protrusion in this structure also takes into account the function of cooperating with the positioning groove in the guide recess of the remote control, realizing structural reuse and functional integration.

[0017] In some embodiments, the magnetic component includes a first magnetic component and a second magnetic component. The first magnetic component is disposed at the end of the button, and the second magnetic component is disposed inside the second housing. The first magnetic component is magnetically attracted to the second magnetic component to achieve a detachable connection between the second housing and the end of the button. The top cover also includes a plurality of guide rods. The plurality of guide rods are disposed on the side of the top cover opposite to the positioning protrusion and can be telescopically inserted into the base. The first magnetic component is annular and has a plurality of positioning holes. Each guide rod is inserted into one of the positioning holes. By specifically configuring the magnetic components as a first magnetic component and a second magnetic component, with the first magnetic component located at the end of the button and the second magnetic component located inside the second housing, the magnetic attraction between the two components enables a detachable connection between the second housing and the end of the button, ensuring the reliability and convenience of the magnetic connection between the remote control and the end of the button. Simultaneously, by setting multiple retractable guide rods that pass through the base on the side of the top cover facing away from the positioning protrusion, and designing the first magnetic component as an annular structure with multiple positioning holes, each guide rod passes through a positioning hole. This allows for precise positioning and fixation of the first magnetic component through the cooperation of the guide rods and positioning holes, preventing the first magnetic component from shifting or rotating during installation or use. This ensures the accuracy and stability of the magnetic alignment and improves the mechanical strength and assembly reliability of the overall button structure.

[0018] In some embodiments, the second housing contains multiple limiting rods located on the side of the guide recess facing away from the button. The second magnetic component is annular and has multiple limiting holes, with each limiting rod passing through one of the limiting holes. By providing multiple limiting rods within the second housing and positioning them on the side of the guide recess facing away from the button, and designing the second magnetic component as an annular structure with multiple limiting holes, each limiting rod passing through a limiting hole, the cooperation between the limiting rods and the limiting holes precisely positions and fixes the second magnetic component. This prevents the second magnetic component from shifting or rotating inside the remote control, ensuring the long-term stability and accuracy of the magnetic alignment between the second and first magnetic components. It also enhances the overall integrity and assembly reliability of the remote control's internal structure and helps maintain the precise spatial relative position required for electromagnetic induction charging.

[0019] In some embodiments, the first coil is disposed in the central cavity of the annular first magnetic component, and the first coil is sleeved on the trigger rod and fixed to the top cover. By specifically placing the first coil in the central cavity of the annular first magnetic component, and sleeved on the trigger rod and fixed to the top cover, a compact integration and coaxial arrangement of the first coil and the first magnetic component at the button end is achieved. This structural design makes full use of the internal space of the annular first magnetic component, allowing the first coil required for electromagnetic induction charging to be tightly integrated with the first magnetic component, which serves as a magnetic positioning structure. This saves space at the button end and ensures a stable and precise relative positional relationship between the first coil and the second coil inside the remote control, thereby optimizing the energy transmission efficiency and reliability of wireless charging. Simultaneously, the fixed connection between the first coil and the top cover also ensures structural stability during button pressing and reset.

[0020] In some embodiments, the second coil is disposed in the central cavity of the annular second magnetic component and fixed to the second housing. By specifically placing the second coil in the central cavity of the annular second magnetic component and fixing it to the second housing, a compact integration and coaxial arrangement of the second coil and the second magnetic component within the remote control is achieved. This structural design fully utilizes the internal space of the annular second magnetic component, allowing the second coil required for electromagnetic induction charging to be spatially and tightly integrated with the second magnetic component, which serves as a magnetic positioning structure. This saves space within the remote control and ensures a stable and precise relative positional relationship between the second coil and the first coil at the button end, thereby optimizing the energy transfer efficiency and reliability of wireless charging. Simultaneously, the fixed connection between the second coil and the second housing ensures its installation stability within the remote control, preventing displacement due to external forces or vibrations and ensuring long-term consistency in charging performance.

[0021] In some embodiments, when the remote control is magnetically connected to the button and the guide protrusion extends into the guide recess, the first coil and the second coil are substantially coaxial. By defining that the first and second coils are substantially coaxial when the remote control is magnetically connected to the button and the guide protrusion extends into the guide recess, the goal of the entire magnetic alignment and guiding structure is clarified. This design ensures that when a charging connection is established, the second coil, as the energy transmitter, and the first coil, as the energy receiver, are precisely aligned in space, thereby maximizing electromagnetic coupling efficiency, reducing energy transmission loss, and achieving efficient and stable wireless charging.

[0022] In some embodiments, the remote control further includes a seal disposed within the base. The seal is sandwiched between the trigger rod and the button, sealingly separating the button from the control board. By providing a seal sandwiched between the trigger rod and the button, and sealingly separating the button from the control board, the physical isolation and filling effect of the seal effectively prevents contaminants such as liquids and dust from the external environment from entering the button through the gap between the button and the trigger rod, and subsequently penetrating into the control board area. This achieves reliable sealing protection for the core electronic component control board, significantly improving the durability and long-term operational reliability of the remote control in harsh environments such as humid and dusty conditions. Furthermore, the seal does not impede the normal pressing action of the trigger rod relative to the button while performing its sealing function.

[0023] In some embodiments, the remote control further includes a flexible circuit board disposed within the accommodating cavity. The control panel is electrically connected to the circuit board via the flexible circuit board. The control panel, the flexible circuit board, the circuit board, the battery, and the second magnetic component are stacked. By integrating the control panel, flexible circuit board, circuit board, battery, and second magnetic component within the accommodating cavity in a stacked manner, and utilizing the flexible circuit board to achieve electrical connection between the control panel and the circuit board, this compact stacked layout greatly optimizes the internal space utilization of the remote control, contributing to the thinning and miniaturization of the overall remote control structure. The application of the flexible circuit board provides reliable and space-saving electrical interconnection, while its flexibility can accommodate minute displacements and tolerances during stacked assembly. The stacked arrangement allows the functional modules to be closely arranged in the thickness direction, resulting in a compact structure.

[0024] In some embodiments, the second housing also includes a fixing groove in which the battery is embedded. By providing a fixing groove in the second housing and embedding the battery within it, the fixing groove precisely limits and fixes the battery's circumference and bottom, effectively preventing displacement and loosening of the battery inside the remote control due to shaking, drops, or long-term use. This ensures the stability and reliability of the battery's electrical connection points. Simultaneously, this embedding installation method improves the battery's assembly accuracy and efficiency, making the battery an integral part of the overall structure, thus contributing to enhanced local structural strength and overall compactness of the second housing.

[0025] This application also provides a smart toilet, which includes a toilet seat and a smart toilet lid as described in any of the above embodiments, wherein the smart toilet lid is disposed on the toilet seat.

[0026] The aforementioned smart toilet, because it includes the smart toilet seat described in any of the above embodiments, also has at least the following beneficial effects: The smart toilet seat of this application designs the remote control and the flushing device button to be magnetically connected. In the connected state, the first coil at the end of the button and the second coil inside the remote control charge the remote control's battery through electromagnetic induction, achieving a convenient and contactless wireless charging method. This avoids the hassle of frequently replacing batteries or connecting a separate charging cable. Furthermore, when not in use, the remote control can be magnetically attached to and completely cover the end of the button, thus hiding the flushing button under the remote control. This results in a smooth, simple, and integrated appearance on the surface of the smart toilet seat, significantly improving the product's visual integrity and aesthetics. When manual flushing is required, the remote control can be magnetically detached from the button, exposing the button for direct pressing to activate the water supply and flush the toilet. This design allows the remote control to integrate charging functionality without interfering with the original mechanical operation of the flushing device, maintaining the independent availability of the button flushing function. It ensures the normal availability of the flushing function when the remote control battery is depleted or the user prefers manual operation. Overall, it optimizes the structural layout and usage logic of the smart toilet seat. Moreover, this design cleverly combines the storage and charging functions of the remote control with the concealment and operation requirements of the flushing device's button. While ensuring charging convenience and operational reliability, it also achieves a simplified and aesthetically pleasing appearance, enhancing the product's practicality and user experience.

[0039] To make the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention can be practiced in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0040] Please see Figures 1 to 9In some embodiments, this application provides a smart toilet seat, which includes a mechanism base, a water supply device, a flushing device, and a remote control. The mechanism base is used to cover the toilet seat, and the water supply device is disposed on the mechanism base and used to flush the toilet bowl of the toilet seat. The flushing device includes a base disposed on the mechanism base, a button movably disposed on the base, and a first coil disposed at the end of the button. The remote control includes a housing and a control panel, a circuit board, a battery, and a second coil disposed on the housing and electrically connected in sequence. The control panel is used to operate the smart toilet seat. At least one of the remote control and the button is provided with a magnetic element so that the remote control can be magnetically connected to the end of the button. When the remote control is magnetically connected to the end of the button, the first coil and the second coil electromagnetically induce to charge the battery. When the remote control is separated from the button, the button is exposed and can be pressed to activate the water supply device.

[0041] The aforementioned smart toilet seat can achieve at least the following beneficial effects:

[0042] The smart toilet seat provided in this application features a magnetically connected remote control and flushing button. When connected, a first coil at the button's end and a second coil inside the remote control charge the remote control's battery via electromagnetic induction, achieving a convenient and contactless wireless charging method. This avoids the hassle of frequent battery replacements or separate charging cables. Furthermore, when not in use, the remote control can magnetically attach and completely cover the button, concealing the flushing button beneath it. This results in a smooth, clean, and integrated appearance for the smart toilet seat, significantly enhancing the product's visual integrity and aesthetics. When manual flushing is required, the remote control can be magnetically detached from the button, exposing it to the elements. The remote control is exposed for direct pressing to activate the water supply and flush the toilet bowl. This design allows the remote control to integrate charging functionality without interfering with the original mechanical operation of the flushing device, maintaining the independent availability of the button flushing function. It ensures the normal availability of the flushing function when the remote control battery is depleted or the user prefers manual operation. Overall, it optimizes the structural layout and usage logic of the smart toilet seat. Moreover, this design cleverly combines the storage and charging functions of the remote control with the concealment of the flushing device buttons and the operational needs. While ensuring charging convenience and operational reliability, it also achieves a simple and aesthetically pleasing appearance, enhancing the product's practicality and user experience.

[0043] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 8As shown, in some embodiments, the housing includes a first housing and a second housing detachably connected to the first housing. The first housing and the second housing enclose a receiving cavity. The circuit board, the battery, and the second coil are all disposed within the receiving cavity. The control panel is disposed on the side of the first housing away from the second housing and exposed to the outside for operation. A guide recess is formed on the side of the second housing opposite to the first housing. A guide protrusion is formed at the end of the button that matches the guide recess. When the remote control is magnetically connected to the end of the button, the guide protrusion extends into the guide recess. By designing the remote control's housing as a detachable first and second housing, it facilitates the assembly, maintenance, or replacement of the circuit board, battery, and second coil within the accommodating cavity. Simultaneously, the guide recess on the second housing matches the guide protrusion at the button end. When the remote control and the button end are magnetically connected, the guide protrusion extends into the guide recess, enabling precise positioning and alignment. This ensures that the first and second coils are in the optimal relative position during charging, thereby improving the efficiency and reliability of electromagnetic induction charging, enhancing the stability of the magnetic connection, and also helping to reduce the risk of the remote control shifting or shaking while in the magnetic state.

[0044] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments, either the guide recess or the guide protrusion has a positioning protrusion, and the other has a positioning groove. When the remote control is magnetically connected to the button end, the positioning protrusion extends into the positioning groove. By providing a positioning protrusion in one of the guide recesses and the guide protrusion, and a positioning groove in the other, when the remote control is magnetically connected to the button end, the positioning protrusion extends into the positioning groove, which enables more precise circumferential positioning and angle limitation. This further ensures that the first coil and the second coil maintain precise axial and angular alignment during electromagnetic induction charging, thereby significantly improving charging efficiency and stability. Simultaneously, it enhances the anti-torsion and anti-misalignment capabilities of the magnetic connection, preventing the remote control from easily falling off due to rotation or displacement caused by external force while in the adsorption state.

[0045] like Figure 9As shown, in some embodiments, the flushing device further includes a control board disposed within the base and a spring-loaded button disposed on the control board. The button includes a top cover and a trigger rod connected to the top cover. A positioning protrusion is formed on the side of the top cover facing away from the control board, and the side of the top cover facing away from the positioning protrusion is connected to the trigger rod. The trigger rod is telescopically inserted through the base and aligned with the button. When the remote control is separated from the button, the top cover can be pressed and the trigger rod can be driven to squeeze the button, causing the control board to send a start signal to the water supply device to flush the toilet. When the pressing force on the top cover is removed, the trigger rod can drive the button to reset under the action of the button's spring force. By specifically designing the button to include a top cover and a trigger rod, and forming a positioning protrusion on the side of the top cover facing away from the control panel, the trigger rod is connected to the side of the top cover facing away from the positioning protrusion. The trigger rod is telescopically inserted through the base and aligned with the spring-loaded button on the control panel, allowing the button to be used directly as a mechanical pressing component when the remote control is detached. Pressing the top cover will squeeze the button through the trigger rod, thereby triggering the control panel to send a start signal to the water supply device to execute the flushing action. After the pressing force is removed, the trigger rod can automatically reset the button under the spring force of the button, ensuring the directness, reliability, and convenience of manual flushing operation. At the same time, the positioning protrusion in this structure also takes into account the function of cooperating with the positioning groove in the guide recess of the remote control, realizing structural reuse and functional integration.

[0046] like Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Figure 9As shown, in some embodiments, the magnetic component includes a first magnetic component and a second magnetic component. The first magnetic component is disposed at the end of the button, and the second magnetic component is disposed inside the second housing. The first magnetic component can be magnetically attracted to the second magnetic component to achieve a detachable connection between the second housing and the end of the button. The top cover also includes a plurality of guide rods. The plurality of guide rods are disposed on the side of the top cover opposite to the positioning protrusion and can be telescopically inserted into the base. The first magnetic component is annular and has a plurality of positioning holes. Each guide rod is inserted into one of the positioning holes. By specifically configuring the magnetic components as a first magnetic component and a second magnetic component, with the first magnetic component located at the end of the button and the second magnetic component located inside the second housing, the magnetic attraction between the two components enables a detachable connection between the second housing and the end of the button, ensuring the reliability and convenience of the magnetic connection between the remote control and the end of the button. Simultaneously, by setting multiple retractable guide rods that pass through the base on the side of the top cover facing away from the positioning protrusion, and designing the first magnetic component as an annular structure with multiple positioning holes, each guide rod passes through a positioning hole. This allows for precise positioning and fixation of the first magnetic component through the cooperation of the guide rods and positioning holes, preventing the first magnetic component from shifting or rotating during installation or use. This ensures the accuracy and stability of the magnetic alignment and improves the mechanical strength and assembly reliability of the overall button structure.

[0047] like Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the second housing is provided with multiple limiting rods, which are located on the side of the guide recess facing away from the button. The second magnetic component is annular and has multiple limiting holes, with each limiting rod passing through one of the limiting holes. By providing multiple limiting rods in the second housing and positioning them on the side of the guide recess facing away from the button, and designing the second magnetic component as an annular structure with multiple limiting holes, so that each limiting rod passes through one limiting hole, the cooperation between the limiting rods and the limiting holes allows for precise positioning and fixation of the second magnetic component. This prevents the second magnetic component from shifting or rotating inside the remote control, ensuring the long-term stability and accuracy of the magnetic alignment between the second and first magnetic components. It also enhances the overall integrity and assembly reliability of the remote control's internal structure and helps maintain the precise spatial relative position required for electromagnetic induction charging.

[0048] like Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Figure 9As shown, in some embodiments, the first coil is disposed in the central cavity of the annular first magnetic component, and the first coil is sleeved on the trigger rod and fixed to the top cover. By specifically placing the first coil in the central cavity of the annular first magnetic component, and sleeved on the trigger rod and fixed to the top cover, a compact integration and coaxial arrangement of the first coil and the first magnetic component at the button end is achieved. This structural design makes full use of the internal space of the annular first magnetic component, allowing the first coil required for electromagnetic induction charging to be tightly integrated with the first magnetic component, which serves as a magnetic positioning structure. This saves space at the button end and ensures a stable and precise relative positional relationship between the first coil and the second coil inside the remote control, thereby optimizing the energy transmission efficiency and reliability of wireless charging. Simultaneously, the fixed connection between the first coil and the top cover also ensures structural stability during button pressing and reset.

[0049] like Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, in some embodiments, the second coil is disposed in the central cavity of the annular second magnetic component and fixed to the second housing. By specifically placing the second coil in the central cavity of the annular second magnetic component and fixing it to the second housing, a compact integration and coaxial arrangement of the second coil and the second magnetic component within the remote control is achieved. This structural design fully utilizes the internal space of the annular second magnetic component, allowing the second coil required for electromagnetic induction charging to be spatially and tightly integrated with the second magnetic component, which serves as a magnetic positioning structure. This saves space within the remote control and ensures a stable and precise relative positional relationship between the second coil and the first coil at the button end, thereby optimizing the energy transfer efficiency and reliability of wireless charging. Simultaneously, the fixed connection between the second coil and the second housing ensures its installation stability within the remote control, preventing displacement due to external forces or vibrations and ensuring long-term consistency in charging performance.

[0050] like Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments, when the remote control is magnetically connected to the button and the guide protrusion extends into the guide recess, the first coil and the second coil are substantially coaxial. By defining that the first coil and the second coil are substantially coaxial when the remote control is magnetically connected to the button and the guide protrusion extends into the guide recess, the goal of the entire magnetic alignment and guiding structure is clarified. This design ensures that when a charging connection is established, the second coil, as the energy transmitter, and the first coil, as the energy receiver, are precisely aligned in space, thereby maximizing electromagnetic coupling efficiency, reducing energy transmission loss, and achieving efficient and stable wireless charging.

[0051] like Figure 9As shown, in some embodiments, the remote control further includes a sealing element disposed within the base. The sealing element is sandwiched between the trigger rod and the button, sealingly separating the button from the control board. By providing a sealing element sandwiched between the trigger rod and the button, and sealingly separating the button from the control board, the physical isolation and filling effect of the sealing element effectively prevents contaminants such as liquids and dust from the external environment from entering the button through the gap between the button and the trigger rod, and then penetrating into the control board area. This achieves reliable sealing protection for the core electronic component control board, significantly improving the durability and long-term operational reliability of the remote control in harsh environments such as humid and dusty conditions. At the same time, the sealing element does not hinder the normal pressing action of the trigger rod relative to the button when performing its sealing function.

[0052] like Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments, the remote control further includes a flexible circuit board disposed within the accommodating cavity. The control panel is electrically connected to the circuit board via the flexible circuit board. The control panel, the flexible circuit board, the circuit board, the battery, and the second magnetic component are stacked. By integrating the control panel, flexible circuit board, circuit board, battery, and second magnetic component within the accommodating cavity in a stacked manner, and utilizing the flexible circuit board to achieve electrical connection between the control panel and the circuit board, this compact stacked layout greatly optimizes the internal space utilization of the remote control, contributing to the thinning and miniaturization of the overall remote control structure. The application of the flexible circuit board provides reliable and space-saving electrical interconnection, while its flexibility can accommodate minute displacements and tolerances during stacked assembly. The stacked arrangement allows the functional modules to be closely arranged in the thickness direction, resulting in a compact structure.

[0053] like Figure 6 and Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments, the second housing is further provided with a fixing groove, and the battery is embedded in the fixing groove. By providing a fixing groove in the second housing and embedding the battery in the fixing groove, the fixing groove precisely limits and fixes the battery in the circumference and bottom, effectively preventing the battery from shifting or loosening inside the remote control due to shaking, falling, or long-term use. This ensures the stability and reliability of the battery's electrical connection points. At the same time, this embedding installation method improves the assembly accuracy and efficiency of the battery and makes the battery an integral part of the overall structure, which helps to enhance the local structural strength and overall compactness of the second housing.

[0054] In addition, such as Figure 1 As shown, this application also provides a smart toilet, which includes a toilet seat and a smart toilet lid as described in any of the above embodiments, wherein the smart toilet lid is disposed on the toilet seat.

[0055] The aforementioned smart toilet, because it includes the smart toilet seat described in any of the above embodiments, also has at least the following beneficial effects: The smart toilet seat of this application designs the remote control and the flushing device button to be magnetically connected. In the connected state, the first coil at the end of the button and the second coil inside the remote control charge the remote control's battery through electromagnetic induction, achieving a convenient and contactless wireless charging method. This avoids the hassle of frequently replacing batteries or connecting a separate charging cable. Furthermore, when not in use, the remote control can be magnetically attached to and completely cover the end of the button, thus hiding the flushing button under the remote control. This results in a smooth, simple, and integrated appearance on the surface of the smart toilet seat, significantly improving the product's visual integrity and aesthetics. When manual flushing is required, the remote control can be magnetically detached from the button, exposing the button for direct pressing to activate the water supply and flush the toilet. This design allows the remote control to integrate charging functionality without interfering with the original mechanical operation of the flushing device, maintaining the independent availability of the button flushing function. It ensures the normal availability of the flushing function when the remote control battery is depleted or the user prefers manual operation. Overall, it optimizes the structural layout and usage logic of the smart toilet seat. Moreover, this design cleverly combines the storage and charging functions of the remote control with the concealment and operation requirements of the flushing device's button. While ensuring charging convenience and operational reliability, it also achieves a simplified and aesthetically pleasing appearance, enhancing the product's practicality and user experience.
