[0001] This invention relates to the field of liquid recycling technology, specifically to a water-saving bathroom device. Background Technology

[0002] Freshwater scarcity has become a major factor restricting urban and rural development. Household bathroom water consumption accounts for a high proportion of domestic water consumption. Improving water resource utilization and implementing water conservation and emission reduction in this scenario are in line with the green, low-carbon and sustainable water resource utilization orientation. In traditional bathroom fixtures, after users wash their hands or face, the used clean secondary water is directly discharged into the sewage pipe, resulting in the direct waste of a large amount of reusable water resources and causing a continuous waste of clean water resources for daily life. Summary of the Invention

[0003] This invention uses the action of inverting and pressing down on the toothbrush cup to drain residual water from the bottom, preventing bacteria, mold, and odor from growing at the bottom of the cup due to long-term dampness, thus keeping the toothbrush cup clean. At the same time, when the toothbrush cup is pressed down into the storage slot, the valve A inside the delivery pipe is automatically closed, reducing the water pressure and flow rate from the faucet, preventing water waste caused by splashing of large amounts of water when washing hands, and preventing water from splashing onto clothes, thus improving the user experience.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a water-saving bathroom device, including a washbasin, a faucet installed on the upper end of the washbasin, a storage groove sliding on the upper end of the washbasin, and a top rod fixedly connected inside the storage groove; The washbasin has a horizontal plate that slides through a storage slot at its lower end. One end of the faucet is connected to a water supply pipe. A valve A is installed inside the water supply pipe, and the valve A rotates inside the water supply pipe by sliding the horizontal plate. The washbasin is connected to a three-way pipe at its lower end, and a stopcock valve is installed inside the three-way pipe. The stopcock valve rotates inside the three-way pipe by sliding the horizontal plate. The other end of the three-way pipe is connected to a filter tank, inside which a filter cloth is installed. A filter plate slides inside the filter tank, and the filter cloth shakes inside the filter tank as the filter plate slides. An activated carbon filter layer is provided at the lower end of the filter plate.

[0005] Preferably, four sets of telescopic rods are fixedly connected to the lower end of the storage slot, and two sets of guide rods are fixedly connected to the lower end of the storage slot. The other ends of the two sets of guide rods pass through the washbasin and extend to the lower end of the washbasin to connect with the horizontal plate.

[0006] Preferably, a connecting rod A is fixedly connected to one end of the cross plate, and a rack A is fixedly connected to the other end of the connecting rod A.

[0007] Preferably, one end of the valve A is fixedly connected to a valve stem A, and the other end of the valve stem A is fixedly connected to a gear A, which meshes with a rack A.

[0008] Preferably, a connecting rod B is fixedly connected to one side of the cross plate, and a rack B is fixedly connected to the other end of the connecting rod B.

[0009] Preferably, one end of the plug valve is fixedly connected to a valve stem B, and the other end of the valve stem B is fixedly connected to a gear B, which meshes with a rack B.

[0010] Preferably, the inner wall of the filter tank is provided with two sets of guide grooves, the filter plate is slidably connected to the two sets of guide grooves, and the activated carbon filter layer is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the filter tank.

[0011] Preferably, multiple sets of push rods are fixedly connected to the upper end of the filter plate, and two sets of springs are fixedly connected to the other end of the filter plate, with the other ends of the two sets of springs connected to the activated carbon filter layer.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: 1. This invention uses the action of inverting and pressing down on the toothbrush cup to drain residual water from the bottom of the cup, preventing bacteria, mold, and odor from growing at the bottom of the cup due to long-term dampness, thus keeping the toothbrush cup clean. At the same time, when the toothbrush cup is pressed down into the storage slot, the valve A inside the delivery pipe is automatically closed, reducing the water pressure and flow rate from the faucet, preventing water waste caused by splashing of large flow of water when washing hands, and preventing water from splashing onto clothes, thus improving the user experience.

[0013] 2. This invention, by simultaneously limiting the flow under pressure in the toothbrush cup and rotating the stop valve inside the three-way pipe to switch the passage of the three-way pipe, automatically guides the clean water from hand washing and face washing into the recycling system. This eliminates the need for users to switch the collection device, improving the convenience of use. At the same time, the clean water after hand washing is introduced into the filter tank for purification and used as the toilet flushing water source, significantly reducing the consumption of clean tap water by the toilet and achieving a high water resource recycling rate.

[0014] 3. This invention uses the impact force generated by the change in water flow to drive the filter plate to bounce up and down, and uses multiple sets of push rods to continuously shake the filter cloth, thereby timely shaking off impurities such as hair and dander attached to the surface of the filter cloth, preventing the filter cloth pores from being blocked, ensuring the long-term unobstructed filtration channel, reducing the frequency of manual cleaning. At the same time, the filter plate pushes the filter cloth to bounce continuously, making the water flow more evenly distributed in the filtration tank, preventing local water accumulation, and ensuring that every part of the filter cloth fully participates in filtration, thereby improving the water purification speed.

[0017] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0018] according to Figures 1 to 7 As shown, the present invention provides a water-saving bathroom device, including a washbasin 1, a faucet 2 installed on the upper end of the washbasin 1, a storage groove 3 that slides on the upper end of the washbasin 1, and a top rod 23 fixedly connected inside the storage groove 3. The washbasin 1 has a horizontal plate 22 that slides at the bottom and is driven by the storage slot 3. One end of the faucet 2 is connected to a water supply pipe 10. A valve A is installed inside the water supply pipe 10, and the valve A rotates inside the water supply pipe 10 by sliding the horizontal plate 22. The washbasin 1 has a three-way pipe 15 connected at the bottom. A stop valve is installed inside the three-way pipe 15, and the stop valve rotates inside the three-way pipe 15 by sliding the horizontal plate 22. The other end of the three-way pipe 15 is connected to a filter tank 16. A filter cloth 17 is installed inside the filter tank 16. A filter plate 18 slides inside the filter tank 16. The filter cloth 17 vibrates inside the filter tank 16 due to the sliding of the filter plate 18. An activated carbon filter layer 21 is provided at the lower end of the filter plate 18.

[0019] In an optional embodiment, four sets of telescopic rods 4 are fixedly connected to the lower end of the storage slot 3, and two sets of guide rods 5 are fixedly connected to the lower end of the storage slot 3. The other end of the two sets of guide rods 5 passes through the washbasin 1 and extends to the lower end of the washbasin 1 to connect with the horizontal plate 22. The branch section of the three-way pipe 15 is connected to the drain pipe. In the initial state, the stop valve inside the three-way pipe 15 will connect the three-way pipe 15 to the drain pipe. When the user washes up, the water after washing will enter the drain pipe through the three-way pipe 15. After the user finishes washing up, the staff will put the toothbrush cup upside down on the top rod 23. When the toothbrush cup is upside down on the top rod 23, the toothbrush cup can be pressed down to make the toothbrush cup squeeze the storage groove 3 through the top rod 23 and descend through the four sets of telescopic rods 4. After the telescopic rods 4 descend, because the toothbrush cup is in an upside-down state, the remaining water in the toothbrush cup will be discharged outward, thereby preventing water from accumulating at the bottom of the toothbrush cup and causing mold to grow at the bottom of the toothbrush cup.

[0020] In an optional embodiment, a connecting rod A6 is fixedly connected to one end of the horizontal plate 22, and a rack A7 is fixedly connected to the other end of the connecting rod A6. As described above, when the storage slot 3 descends, the storage slot 3 will push the horizontal plate 22 down synchronously through the two sets of guide rods 5. When the horizontal plate 22 descends, the horizontal plate 22 will drive the rack A7 down synchronously through the connecting rod A6.

[0021] In an optional embodiment, valve A is fixedly connected to one end of valve A with valve stem A9, and valve stem A9 is fixedly connected to the other end of valve stem A8, with gear A8 meshing with rack A7; As described above, when rack A7 descends, it drives gear A8 to rotate. When gear A8 rotates, it synchronously drives valve A inside delivery pipe 10 to rotate via valve stem A9. After valve A rotates, it closes the delivery pipe 10, reducing the water flow from faucet 2. This prevents water from splashing onto clothing when users wash their hands or face with water, as the water pressure decreases. The toothbrush cup is inverted on the top of the top rod 23. When the toothbrush cup is inverted, it prompts the user to press down the storage tank 3 to reduce the water pressure, preventing the user from forgetting. The action of pressing down on the inverted toothbrush cup drains the residual water at the bottom of the cup, preventing bacteria, mold, and odor from growing at the bottom of the toothbrush cup due to long-term dampness, keeping the toothbrush cup clean. At the same time, when the toothbrush cup is pressed down on the storage tank 3, the valve A inside the delivery pipe 10 is automatically closed, reducing the water pressure and flow rate from the faucet, preventing water waste caused by splashing of large flow of water when washing hands, and preventing water from splashing onto clothes, thus improving the user experience.

[0022] In an optional embodiment, a connecting rod B11 is fixedly connected to one side of the horizontal plate 22, and a rack B12 is fixedly connected to the other end of the connecting rod B11. As described above, when the horizontal plate 22 descends, the horizontal plate 22 will simultaneously push the rack B12 down through the connecting rod B11.

[0023] In an optional embodiment, a valve stem B14 is fixedly connected to one end of the plug valve, and a gear B13 is fixedly connected to the other end of the valve stem B14. The gear B13 meshes with the rack B12. As described above, when rack B12 descends, rack B12 will synchronously drive gear B13 to rotate. When gear B13 rotates, gear B13 will synchronously drive the stop valve inside the three-way pipe 15 to rotate through valve stem B14. After the stop valve rotates, the three-way pipe 15 will change from being connected to the drain pipe in the initial state to being connected to the filter tank 16. Then, when the user washes their hands or face with clean water, clean water will enter the filter tank 16 through the three-way pipe 15.

[0024] In an optional embodiment, the inner wall of the filter tank 16 is provided with two sets of guide grooves, the filter plate 18 is slidably connected to the two sets of guide grooves, and the activated carbon filter layer 21 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the filter tank 16. The other end of the filter tank 16 is connected to the collection tank, and the other end of the collection tank is connected to the toilet water tank. As described above, when water enters the filter tank 16, it will be filtered through the filter cloth 17, the filter plate 18, and the activated carbon filter layer 21. The filtered water will then enter the collection tank. When the water enters the collection tank, the user can use the filtered water in the collection tank to flush the toilet, thereby increasing the utilization of water resources. By pressing down the toothbrush cup to limit the flow, the stopcock valve in the three-way pipe 15 is simultaneously rotated to switch the passage of the three-way pipe 15, automatically guiding the clean water from hand washing and face washing into the recycling system. This eliminates the need for the user to switch the collection device, improving the convenience of use. At the same time, the clean water after hand washing is introduced into the filter tank 16 for purification and used as the toilet flushing water source, significantly reducing the toilet's consumption of clean tap water and achieving a high water resource recycling rate.

[0025] In an optional embodiment, a plurality of push rods 19 are fixedly connected to the upper end of the filter plate 18, and two sets of springs 20 are fixedly connected to the other end of the filter plate 18. The other ends of the two sets of springs 20 are connected to the activated carbon filter layer 21. When water enters the filter tank 16, the irregular contact between the user's hands and the water during handwashing results in varying amounts of water entering the filter tank 16. When the water flow is large, the impact force pushes the filter plate 18 down along two sets of guide grooves inside the filter tank 16. When the water flow is small, the filter plate 18 is reset upwards by two sets of springs 20. When the filter plate 18 is reset, it contacts the lower end of the filter cloth 17 via multiple sets of push rods 19. Thus, as water flows into the filter tank 16, the filter plate 18 continuously moves within the filter tank 16. The up-and-down movement of the filter cloth 17, caused by the continuous vibration of the filter cloth 17 within the filter tank 16 by multiple push rods 19, creates an impact force that drives the filter plate 18 to move up and down. This continuous vibration of the filter cloth 17 by the push rods 19 effectively removes hair, dander, and other impurities adhering to its surface, preventing clogging of the pores and ensuring long-term unobstructed filtration. This reduces the frequency of manual cleaning. Simultaneously, the continuous vibration of the filter cloth 17 by the filter plate 18 ensures a more even distribution of water flow within the filter tank 16, preventing localized water accumulation and ensuring that every part of the filter cloth 17 fully participates in filtration, thus increasing the water purification speed.

[0026] Working principle: The branch section of the three-way pipe 15 is connected to the drain pipe. In the initial state, the stop valve inside the three-way pipe 15 will connect the three-way pipe 15 to the drain pipe. When the user washes up, the water after washing will enter the drain pipe through the three-way pipe 15. After the user finishes washing up, the staff will put the toothbrush cup upside down on the top rod 23. When the toothbrush cup is upside down on the top rod 23, the toothbrush cup can be pressed down to make the toothbrush cup squeeze the storage groove 3 through the top rod 23 and descend through the four sets of telescopic rods 4. After the telescopic rods 4 descend, because the toothbrush cup is in an upside-down state, the remaining water in the toothbrush cup will be discharged outward, thereby preventing water from accumulating at the bottom of the toothbrush cup and causing mold to grow at the bottom of the toothbrush cup. When the storage tank 3 descends, it will push the horizontal plate 22 down synchronously through two sets of guide rods 5. When the horizontal plate 22 descends, it will drive the rack A7 down synchronously through the connecting rod A6. When the rack A7 descends, it will drive the gear A8 to rotate. When the gear A8 rotates, it will drive the valve A inside the delivery pipe 10 to rotate through the valve rod A9. After the valve A rotates, it will close the part inside the delivery pipe 10, thereby reducing the amount of water coming out of the faucet 2. When the user washes their hands or face with clean water, the decrease in water pressure can prevent the water from splashing and wasting water or splashing onto clothes due to the large amount of water coming out of the faucet 2. In conjunction with the toothbrush cup being inverted on the top rod 23, the inverted toothbrush cup can prompt the user to press down the storage tank 3 to reduce the water pressure, preventing the user from forgetting. When the horizontal plate 22 descends, the horizontal plate 22 will push the rack B12 to descend synchronously through the connecting rod B11. When the rack B12 descends, the rack B12 will drive the gear B13 to rotate synchronously. When the gear B13 rotates, the gear B13 will drive the stop valve inside the three-way pipe 15 to rotate synchronously through the valve stem B14. After the stop valve rotates, the three-way pipe 15 will change from being connected to the drain pipe in the initial state to being connected to the filter tank 16. Then, when the user washes their hands or face with clean water, the clean water will enter the filter tank 16 through the three-way pipe 15. When the water source enters the filter tank 16, the water source will be filtered through the filter cloth 17, the filter plate 18 and the activated carbon filter layer 21 inside the filter tank 16, and the filtered water source will enter the collection tank. When the water source enters the collection tank, the user can use the filtered clean water inside the collection tank when flushing. When water enters the filter tank 16, the irregular contact between the user's hands and the water during handwashing results in varying amounts of water entering the filter tank 16. When the water flow is large, the impact force pushes the filter plate 18 down along the two sets of guide grooves inside the filter tank 16. When the water flow is small, the filter plate 18 is reset upwards by the two sets of springs 20. When the filter plate 18 is reset, it contacts the lower end of the filter cloth 17 through multiple sets of push rods 19. As water flows into the filter tank 16, the filter plate 18 bounces up and down inside the filter tank 16, and the multiple sets of push rods 19 continuously push the filter cloth 17 to shake inside the filter tank 16.
