Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of smart bathroom technology, and in particular to a foam shield replenishment device, a smart toilet seat, and a smart toilet. Background Technology
[0002] With the improvement of living standards, the popularity of smart toilets is increasing. Among them, foam shield technology, as an important hygiene and comfort function, forms a dense foam layer on the water seal surface of the toilet bowl. This effectively prevents waste from splashing, reduces odor diffusion, and lowers flushing noise, greatly enhancing the user experience. The core of this technology lies in the need for a stable and reliable device to continuously and quantitatively deliver a special foaming liquid to the foaming head to generate foam.
[0003] Currently, the foam shield liquid supply device in smart toilet seats on the market generally forms a cavity inside the base to hold the foaming liquid, and then connects to the foaming head via built-in pipes within the base. This integrated design has revealed significant drawbacks in actual use: First, when users need to add or replace the foaming liquid, they often need to open the base or outer shell of the smart toilet, which is complicated and time-consuming, and extremely inconvenient for ordinary users; second, after long-term use, components in the foaming liquid may deposit and crystallize in the fixed pipes, causing blockages, affecting the smoothness of the liquid supply, and even contaminating newly added foaming liquid, ultimately leading to foam generation failure or a weakened foam shield effect.
[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 foam shield replenishment device, a smart toilet seat, and a smart toilet to address the above problems.
[0006] This application provides a foam shield replenishment device, which includes:
[0007] A first mounting component is used for mounting to the surface of a substrate;
[0008] A second mounting component is detachably connected to the first mounting component;
[0009] A liquid bottle, connected to the second mounting component, the liquid bottle being used to fill a foaming liquid; and
[0010] An infusion assembly includes a pump body and an infusion tube connected to the pump body. One end of the infusion tube is detachably connected to and communicates with the liquid bottle, and the other end of the infusion tube is detachably connected to and communicates with a foaming head. The pump body can provide power to transport the foaming liquid in the liquid bottle to the foaming head through the infusion tube.
[0011] The aforementioned foam shield replenishment device can achieve at least the following beneficial effects:
[0012] The foam shield replenishment device provided in this application is installed on the surface of the base through a first mounting component, and a second mounting component is detachably connected to the first mounting component. A liquid bottle is connected to the second mounting component for filling with foaming liquid. The infusion assembly includes a pump body and an infusion tube connected to the pump body. One end of the infusion tube is detachably connected and communicates with the liquid bottle, and the other end is detachably connected and communicates with the foaming head. The pump body provides power to transport the foaming liquid in the liquid bottle to the foaming head through the infusion tube. This realizes the modularization and detachability of the liquid supply path between the liquid bottle and the foaming head, so that the replenishment of foaming liquid can be quickly completed by simply removing the liquid bottle from the first mounting component and replacing it with a new liquid bottle, without having to open the base of the smart toilet seat or contact the fixed pipe inside. This significantly simplifies the operation steps and greatly shortens the replacement time. At the same time, it avoids the problems of pipe pollution, scale accumulation and blockage caused by long-term use in traditional structures, thereby ensuring smooth liquid supply to the foaming head and ensuring the quality and hygienic cleaning effect of the generated foam. The substrate can be a toilet seat, water tank, base, or surrounding wall, etc. In other words, the first mounting component can be installed on various substrate surfaces such as toilet seats, water tanks, bases, or surrounding walls, allowing the liquid bottle to be flexibly installed in a location according to the actual installation environment. This provides high flexibility and improves the convenience of user operation and the adaptability of device installation.
[0013] In some embodiments, the first mounting component includes a first magnetic element, and the second mounting component includes a second magnetic element, wherein the first magnetic element can be magnetically connected to the second magnetic element. This configuration allows the second mounting component, along with the liquid bottle, to be quickly and securely attached to the first mounting component via the magnetic force between the first and second magnetic elements. When the liquid bottle needs to be replaced, the second mounting component and the liquid bottle can be removed as a whole simply by overcoming the magnetic force. The magnetic connection method has the characteristics of automatic alignment and adsorption, allowing users to easily and accurately connect the second mounting component and the first mounting component even in locations where direct visual operation is inconvenient (such as behind or below the toilet seat), greatly simplifying the liquid bottle installation and replacement process and improving user convenience and experience.
[0014] In some embodiments, either the first magnetic element or the second magnetic element is a magnetic element, and the other of the first magnetic element or the second magnetic element is a ferromagnetic metal element.
[0015] In some embodiments, both the first magnetic element and the second magnetic element are magnetic elements.
[0016] In some embodiments, the second mounting component further includes a mounting portion and a retaining portion connected to the mounting portion. The retaining portion is used to detachably retain the liquid bottle, and the mounting portion is connected to the second magnetic component. This configuration, by clearly distinguishing the second mounting component into a mounting portion for magnetic connection with the first mounting component and a retaining portion for detachable connection with the liquid bottle, achieves a modular connection between the liquid bottle and the second mounting component. This allows the liquid bottle to be independently and securely mounted on the retaining portion, while the mounting portion serves as a universal interface for fixing to the base. The detachable connection between the retaining portion and the liquid bottle allows the liquid bottle to be removed separately for replacement or refilling, while the second mounting component as a whole, including the mounting portion and the retaining portion of the second magnetic component, can be retained and reused without needing to be replaced along with the liquid bottle. This reduces the cost of consumables for long-term use and simplifies daily maintenance operations. Users only need to handle the disassembly and assembly of the liquid bottle without operating the magnetic connection portion, further improving the convenience and economy of use.
[0017] In some embodiments, the retaining part is annular and detachably fitted onto the outer circumferential surface of the liquid bottle, with damping between the retaining part and the outer circumferential surface of the liquid bottle. This arrangement, by specifically defining the retaining part as an annular structure, allows for detachable connection by fitting it laterally onto the liquid bottle. This connection method is not limited to a specific size liquid bottle and has wide adaptability. The damping between the annular retaining part and the outer circumferential surface of the liquid bottle provides the necessary frictional force, ensuring that the liquid bottle is securely held within the retaining part during normal use, preventing accidental loosening or rotation. At the same time, this damping force is controlled within a certain range, allowing the user to overcome the damping by applying a certain axial force when the liquid bottle needs to be replaced, thus achieving a balance between secure holding and convenient disassembly, optimizing the reliability of the retaining function and the user experience.
[0018] In some embodiments, the first mounting member and the second mounting member are snap-fitted together. This arrangement uses a snap-fit connection between the first and second mounting members, employing a mechanical structure such as snap-fits and slots to achieve detachable fixation. The snap-fit method provides a definite mechanical locking position and clear connection feedback, effectively preventing relative displacement or accidental separation due to external forces or vibrations during use, thus enhancing the mechanical stability and reliability of the connection. Simultaneously, the snap-fit structure typically allows users to quickly disassemble the components through specific operations (such as pressing a release button, rotating, or directly pulling them apart), providing another simple, low-cost, and robust alternative technical solution for assembling and separating the first and second mounting members.
[0019] In some embodiments, the second mounting component is attached to the first mounting component. This arrangement, by using a hanging connection method, allows the second mounting component to be conveniently suspended from the first mounting component by gravity as the main constraint force. The hanging method allows users to complete the installation and removal of the second mounting component and the liquid bottle attached to it with a simple lifting or lowering action, which greatly improves the convenience of operation and is especially suitable for usage scenarios that require frequent removal and placement of liquid bottles for filling or replacement.
[0020] In some embodiments, the second mounting component is detachably connected to the liquid bottle.
[0021] In some embodiments, the second mounting component is integrally connected to the liquid bottle.
[0022] This design, by constructing the second mounting component and the liquid bottle as an inseparable integral unit, fundamentally eliminates potential connection gaps, loosening, or assembly errors that might occur with separate connections (such as threads or snaps) between the second mounting component and the liquid bottle, ensuring that the position of the second mounting component relative to the liquid bottle is absolutely fixed. This integrated structure greatly simplifies user operation; users do not need to perform additional steps to install the liquid bottle onto the second mounting component, but can directly connect the liquid bottle to the first mounting component by operating it, reducing assembly complexity and potential failure points, and improving the overall structural strength and reliability of the product. Furthermore, when the liquid bottle is configured for refilling, users can directly add new foaming liquid to the bottle by opening the filling port (e.g., unscrewing the cap), which reduces long-term operating costs, decreases packaging material consumption, and is more environmentally friendly and economical.
[0023] In some embodiments, at least one of the first and second mounting members has an anti-slip texture on its surface. This anti-slip texture acts on the mating surfaces of the first and second mounting members, significantly enhancing the friction between them by increasing the micro-roughness and effective contact area of the contact surfaces. This effectively prevents the second mounting member from unexpectedly sliding, shifting, or loosening relative to the first mounting member, thereby improving the tightness and stability of the connection between the first and second mounting members.
[0024] In some embodiments, the pump body is a peristaltic pump. This peristaltic pump, through its unique operating method—using rotating rollers to alternately squeeze an elastic hose to propel the fluid within the hose—ensures that the fluid being transported only contacts the inner wall of the hose, thereby achieving complete isolation between the fluid and the pump body's drive components. This effectively prevents the fluid from being contaminated or corroded by the pump body's mechanical moving parts. Furthermore, the peristaltic pump's valve-less and seal-less structure significantly reduces the risk of fluid blockage and leakage, improving the cleanliness, safety, and reliability of fluid delivery.
[0025] This application also provides a smart toilet seat, which includes a base, a foaming head, and a foam shield replenishment device as described in any of the above embodiments.
[0026] This application also provides a smart toilet, which includes a toilet seat, a base, a foaming head, a water tank, and a foam shield replenishing device as described in any of the above embodiments, wherein the base, the foaming head, and the water tank are all disposed on the toilet seat.
[0027] The aforementioned smart toilet seat and smart toilet include the foam shield replenishing device described in any of the above embodiments. Therefore, the smart toilet seat and smart toilet also have at least the following beneficial effects: the foam shield replenishing device is installed on the surface of the base through a first mounting member, a second mounting member is detachably connected to the first mounting member, a liquid bottle is connected to the second mounting member for filling with foaming liquid, and the infusion assembly includes a pump body and an infusion tube connected to the pump body. One end of the infusion tube is detachably connected to and communicates with the liquid bottle, and the other end is detachably connected to and communicates with the foaming head. The pump body provides power to pump the foaming liquid in the liquid bottle. The liquid is delivered to the foaming head via an infusion tube, thus modularizing and detaching the liquid supply path between the bottle and the foaming head. Replenishing the foaming liquid is as simple as removing the bottle from the first mounting component and replacing it with a new one, without needing to open the smart toilet seat base or access its internal pipes. This significantly simplifies operation and greatly reduces replacement time, while avoiding the pipe contamination, scale buildup, and blockages that occur with traditional structures over long-term use. This ensures smooth liquid supply to the foaming head, guaranteeing the quality and hygienic cleaning effect of the produced foam. The substrate can be a toilet seat, water tank, base, or surrounding wall, meaning the first mounting component can be installed on various substrate surfaces such as toilet seats, water tanks, bases, or surrounding walls. This allows the liquid bottle to be flexibly installed according to the actual installation environment, offering high flexibility and improving user convenience and device adaptability. The smart toilet seat and smart toilet can stably, efficiently and controllably replenish foaming liquid to the foaming head through the foam shield replenishment device. The foaming head can use the foaming liquid to form foam, forming and maintaining a uniform, dense and durable foam layer on the water seal surface inside the toilet bowl. This foam layer can effectively isolate dirt from the water seal, prevent dirt from adhering to the inner wall of the toilet bowl and prevent splashing water from contaminating the user. At the same time, it significantly reduces the noise and water consumption during flushing, improves the hygiene, comfort and quietness of using the toilet, and achieves the effect of water conservation and environmental protection.

[0037] 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.
[0038] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5In some embodiments, this application provides a foam shield replenishment device 40, which includes a first mounting member 100, a second mounting member 200, a liquid bottle 300, and an infusion assembly 400. The first mounting component 100 is used to be installed on the surface of the base, and the second mounting component 200 is detachably connected to the first mounting component 100. The liquid bottle 300 is connected to the second mounting component 200 and is used to fill the foaming liquid. The infusion assembly 400 includes a pump body 410 and an infusion tube 420 connected to the pump body 410. One end of the infusion tube 420 is detachably connected to and communicates with the liquid bottle 300, and the other end of the infusion tube 420 is detachably connected to and communicates with the foaming head 30. The pump body 410 can provide power to transport the foaming liquid in the liquid bottle 300 to the foaming head 30 through the infusion tube 420. The foaming head 30 can mix the foaming liquid with water to generate foam and deliver the foam to the toilet bowl 11 of the toilet seat 10.
[0039] The aforementioned foam shield replenishment device 40 can achieve at least the following beneficial effects:
[0040] The foam shield replenishment device 40 provided in this application is installed on the surface of a substrate via a first mounting member 100. A second mounting member 200 is detachably connected to the first mounting member 100. A liquid bottle 300 is connected to the second mounting member 200 for filling with foaming liquid. The infusion assembly 400 includes a pump body 410 and an infusion tube 420 connected to the pump body 410. One end of the infusion tube 420 is detachably connected to and communicates with the liquid bottle 300, and the other end is detachably connected to and communicates with the foaming head 30. The pump body 410 provides power to transport the foaming liquid in the liquid bottle 300 to the foaming head 30 through the infusion tube 420. This modularization and detachability of the liquid supply path between the liquid bottle 300 and the foaming head 30 allows for quick replenishment of the foaming liquid simply by removing the liquid bottle 300 from the first mounting component 100 and replacing it with a new one. This eliminates the need to open the base of the smart toilet seat or access its internal pipes, significantly simplifying the operation and greatly reducing replacement time. It also avoids the problems of pipe contamination, scale buildup, and blockages caused by long-term use in traditional structures, ensuring smooth liquid supply to the foaming head 30 and guaranteeing the quality and hygienic cleaning effect of the generated foam. The substrate can be the toilet seat 10, water tank 20, base, or surrounding wall, etc. In other words, the first mounting component 100 can be installed on various substrate surfaces such as the toilet seat 10, water tank 20, base, or surrounding wall, allowing the liquid bottle 300 to be flexibly installed according to the actual installation environment. This high flexibility enhances user convenience and device adaptability.
[0041] In some embodiments, the first mounting member 100 includes a first magnetic element, and the second mounting member 200 includes a second magnetic element, wherein the first magnetic element can be magnetically connected to the second magnetic element. This configuration allows the second mounting member 200, together with the liquid bottle 300, to be quickly and securely attached to the first mounting member 100 by the magnetic force between the first and second magnetic elements. When the liquid bottle 300 needs to be replaced, the second mounting member 200 and the liquid bottle 300 can be removed as a whole simply by overcoming the magnetic force. The magnetic connection method has the characteristics of automatic alignment and adsorption, allowing users to easily and accurately connect the second mounting member 200 and the first mounting member 100 even in locations where direct visual operation is inconvenient (such as behind or below the toilet seat 10), greatly simplifying the installation and replacement process of the liquid bottle 300 and improving the convenience and experience of user operation. For example, in situations such as... Figure 2 and Figure 3 In the illustrated embodiment, the first mounting member 100 is disposed on the outer surface of the water tank 20 and near the bottom of the toilet seat 10. Figure 2 The toilet seat 10 shown is suitable for wall-mounted toilets, i.e., wall-mounted toilets that are suspended in the air. There is space below the toilet seat 10 for the user to access and place the liquid bottle 300. Alternatively, in other embodiments, the toilet seat 10 is not wall-mounted but directly installed on the ground. In this case, the area below the toilet seat 10 is enclosed, and an opening can be provided at the back of the toilet seat 10 for replacing the liquid bottle 300. Furthermore, the liquid bottle 300 can also be installed on the outer surface of the toilet seat 10 or on the surrounding wall, or other locations. It should be noted that this is merely an illustrative example for ease of understanding and is not intended to imply that this is the only possible method.
[0042] In some embodiments, either the first magnetic element or the second magnetic element is a magnetic element, and the other of the first magnetic element or the second magnetic element is a ferromagnetic metal element.
[0043] In some embodiments, both the first magnetic element and the second magnetic element are magnetic elements.
[0044] like Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the second mounting member 200 is attached to the first mounting member 100. For example, in... Figure 6In the illustrated embodiment, the first mounting member 100 is provided with a hanging groove 110, and the second mounting member 200 includes a hook 230, which can be hung in the hanging groove 110. This arrangement, through a hook-and-loop connection, allows the second mounting member 200 to be conveniently suspended from the first mounting member 100 by gravity as the primary constraint force. The hook-and-loop method allows users to easily install and remove the second mounting member 200 along with the liquid bottle 300 by simply lifting or lowering it, greatly improving operational convenience, especially suitable for scenarios requiring frequent removal and placement of the liquid bottle 300 for filling or replacement. Furthermore, different detachable connections can be used simultaneously as long as they do not conflict, such as using a hook-and-loop connection in conjunction with magnetic attraction. The hook-and-loop structure typically has clear guidance and limits, helping to ensure that the second mounting member 200 is in a predetermined working position relative to the first mounting member 100, thereby ensuring effective alignment and attraction between the magnetic components, enhancing the overall connection reliability and stability during use.
[0045] In some embodiments, the first mounting member 100 and the second mounting member 200 are snap-fitted together. This arrangement uses a snap-fit connection between the first mounting member 100 and the second mounting member 200, utilizing a mechanical structure such as snap-fits and slots to achieve detachable fixation between them. The snap-fit method provides a definite mechanical locking position and clear connection feedback, effectively preventing relative displacement or accidental separation due to external forces or vibrations during use, thus enhancing the mechanical stability and reliability of the connection. At the same time, the snap-fit structure usually allows users to quickly disassemble the parts through specific operations (such as pressing a release button, rotating, or directly pulling them apart), providing another simple, low-cost, and secure alternative technical solution for the assembly and separation of the first mounting member 100 and the second mounting member 200.
[0046] like Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the second mounting member 200 is detachably connected to the liquid bottle 300.
[0047] like Figure 4As shown, in some embodiments, the second mounting member 200 further includes a mounting portion 210 and a retaining portion 220 connected to the mounting portion 210, the retaining portion 220 being used to detachably retain the liquid bottle 300, and the mounting portion 210 being connected to the second magnetic member. This design clearly distinguishes the second mounting component 200 into a mounting portion 210 for magnetic connection with the first mounting component 100 and a retaining portion 220 for detachable connection with the liquid bottle 300. This modular connection between the liquid bottle 300 and the second mounting component 200 allows the liquid bottle 300 to be independently and securely mounted on the retaining portion 220, while the mounting portion 210 serves as a universal interface for fixing to the base. The detachable connection between the retaining portion 220 and the liquid bottle 300 allows the liquid bottle 300 to be removed separately for replacement or refilling. The second mounting component 200, consisting of the mounting portion 210 and the retaining portion 220, can be retained and reused as a whole, without needing to be replaced along with the liquid bottle 300. This reduces the cost of consumables for long-term use and simplifies daily maintenance. Users only need to handle the installation and removal of the liquid bottle 300, without operating the magnetic connection, further improving convenience and economy.
[0048] like Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the retaining part 220 is annular and detachably fitted onto the outer circumferential surface of the liquid bottle 300, with damping between the retaining part 220 and the outer circumferential surface of the liquid bottle 300. This arrangement, by specifically defining the retaining part 220 as an annular structure, allows it to be detachably fitted from the side of the liquid bottle 300. This connection method is not limited to a liquid bottle 300 of a fixed size and has wide adaptability. The damping between the annular retaining part 220 and the outer circumferential surface of the liquid bottle 300 provides the necessary frictional force, ensuring that the liquid bottle 300 can be securely held within the retaining part 220 during normal use, preventing accidental loosening or rotation. At the same time, the damping force is controlled within a certain range, so that when the user needs to replace the liquid bottle 300, they can overcome the damping by applying a certain axial force to pull the liquid bottle 300 out of the annular retaining part 220. This achieves a balance between secure holding and convenient disassembly, optimizing the reliability of the retaining function and the user experience.
[0049] In other embodiments, the second mounting component 200 is integrally connected to the liquid bottle 300. This configuration, by constructing the second mounting component 200 and the liquid bottle 300 as an inseparable integral part, fundamentally eliminates the connection gaps, loosening, or assembly errors that may exist between the second mounting component 200 and the liquid bottle 300 due to separate connections (such as threads, snaps, etc.), ensuring that the position of the second mounting component 200 relative to the liquid bottle 300 is absolutely fixed. This integrated structure greatly simplifies user operation; users do not need to perform the additional step of installing the liquid bottle 300 onto the second mounting component 200, but can directly operate the liquid bottle 300 to complete the connection with the first mounting component 100, reducing assembly complexity and potential failure points, and improving the overall structural strength and reliability of the product. In addition, when the liquid bottle 300 is configured to be refillable, users can directly add new foaming liquid into the bottle by opening the filling port of the liquid bottle 300 (such as unscrewing the cap), which reduces the user's long-term usage costs, reduces the consumption of packaging materials, and is more environmentally friendly and economical.
[0050] In some embodiments, at least one of the first mounting member 100 and the second mounting member 200 has an anti-slip texture on its surface. This anti-slip texture acts on the mating surfaces of the first mounting member 100 and the second mounting member 200, significantly enhancing the friction between them by increasing the micro-roughness and effective contact area. This effectively prevents the second mounting member 200 from unexpectedly sliding, shifting, or loosening relative to the first mounting member 100, thereby improving the tightness and stability of the connection between the first mounting member 100 and the second mounting member 200.
[0051] In some embodiments, the pump body 410 is a peristaltic pump. This peristaltic pump, through its unique operating method—using rotating rollers to alternately squeeze an elastic hose to push the fluid inside—ensures that the fluid being transported only contacts the inner wall of the hose, thereby achieving complete isolation between the fluid and the driving components of the pump body 410. This effectively prevents the fluid from being contaminated or corroded by the mechanical moving parts of the pump body 410. Furthermore, the peristaltic pump, due to its valve-less and seal-less structure, significantly reduces the risk of fluid blockage and leakage, improving the cleanliness, safety, and reliability of fluid transport.
[0052] In addition, this application also provides a smart toilet seat, which includes a base, a foaming head 30, and a foam shield replenishing device 40 as described in any of the above embodiments. For example, the first mounting member 100 can be mounted on the surface of the base; or the first mounting member 100 can be mounted on the surrounding wall.
[0053] Furthermore, this application also provides a smart toilet, which includes a toilet seat 10, a base, a foaming head 30, a water tank 20, and a foam shield replenishing device 40 as described in any of the above embodiments. The base, the foaming head 30, and the water tank 20 are all disposed on the toilet seat 10. For example, the first mounting member 100 can be installed on the surface below or behind the toilet seat 10; or, the first mounting member 100 can be installed on the surrounding wall; or, the first mounting member 100 can be installed on the side or lower surface of the water tank 20, etc. It should be noted that the various descriptions of the installation positions of the first mounting member 100, the second mounting member 200, and the liquid bottle 300 in this document are only illustrative examples and are not intended to indicate or imply that such positions are the only possible ones.
[0054] The aforementioned smart toilet seat and smart toilet include the foam shield replenishing device 40 described in any of the above embodiments. Therefore, the smart toilet seat and smart toilet also have at least the following beneficial effects: the foam shield replenishing device 40 is installed on the base surface via a first mounting member 100, a second mounting member 200 is detachably connected to the first mounting member 100, a liquid bottle 300 is connected to the second mounting member 200 for filling with foaming liquid, and the infusion assembly 400 includes a pump body 410 and an infusion tube 420 connected to the pump body 410. One end of the infusion tube 420 is detachably connected to and communicates with the liquid bottle 300, and the other end is detachably connected to and communicates with the foaming head 30. The pump body 410 provides dynamic... The foaming liquid in the liquid bottle 300 is delivered to the foaming head 30 through the infusion tube 420. This modularizes and disassembles the liquid supply path between the liquid bottle 300 and the foaming head 30, allowing the foaming liquid to be replenished quickly by simply removing the liquid bottle 300 from the first mounting part 100 and replacing it with a new one. There is no need to open the base of the smart toilet seat or touch the fixed pipes inside. This significantly simplifies the operation steps and greatly shortens the replacement time. At the same time, it avoids the problems of pipe pollution, scale buildup and blockage caused by long-term use in traditional structures, thus ensuring smooth liquid supply to the foaming head 30 and ensuring the quality and hygienic cleaning effect of the produced foam. The substrate can be a toilet seat 10, a water tank 20, a base, or a surrounding wall, etc. In other words, the first mounting component 100 can be installed on various substrate surfaces such as the toilet seat 10, water tank 20, base, or surrounding wall, allowing the liquid bottle 300 to be flexibly installed in different locations according to the actual installation environment. This provides high flexibility, improves user convenience, and enhances the adaptability of the device installation. The smart toilet seat and smart toilet can stably, efficiently, and controllably replenish foaming liquid to the foaming head 30 through the foam shield replenishment device 40. The foaming head 30 can use the foaming liquid to form foam, creating and maintaining a uniform, dense, and durable foam layer on the water seal surface inside the toilet seat 10. This foam layer effectively isolates dirt from the water seal, preventing dirt from adhering to the inner wall of the toilet bowl and preventing splashing water from contaminating the user. It also significantly reduces noise and water consumption during flushing, improving the hygiene, comfort, and quietness of toilet use, and achieving water-saving and environmentally friendly effects.
[0055] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
[0056] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementation methods of this application, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this application, and these all fall within the protection scope of this application. Therefore, the protection scope of this patent application should be determined by the appended claims.
[0057] In the description of this application, it should be understood that if terms such as "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", "axial", "radial", "circumferential" appear, these terms indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this application.
[0058] Furthermore, where the terms "first" and "second" appear, these terms are for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature. In the description of this application, where the term "multiple" appears, "multiple" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified.
[0059] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "joining," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components, unless otherwise expressly limited. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.
[0060] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the use of descriptions such as "above" or "below" the second feature indicates that the first and second features are in direct contact or indirect contact via an intermediate medium. Furthermore, "above," "on top of," and "over" the second feature can mean that the first feature is directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature. Similarly, "below," "below," and "under" the second feature can mean that the first feature is directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply that the first feature is at a lower horizontal level than the second feature.
[0061] It should be noted that if an element is referred to as being "fixed to" or "set on" another element, it can be directly on the other element or there may be an intervening element. If an element is considered to be "connected to" another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intervening element. If so, the terms "vertical," "horizontal," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," and similar expressions used in this application are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only possible implementation.
[0062] In the description of this specification, references to terms such as "an embodiment," "another implementation," etc., indicate that a specific feature, structure, material, or characteristic described in connection with that embodiment or example is included in at least one embodiment or example of this application. In this specification, the illustrative descriptions of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application belongs. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of this application.
