Control the foaming agent mixture output component to stop working or continue working, and at the same time control the brush ring water outlet component and the main flush water outlet component to both output water, the water output of the main flush water outlet component is the second water output, and the second water output is less than the first water output.
[0007] As an optional implementation of the control method for the above-mentioned flushing module, in step S1, the water output of the brush ring water outlet component is greater than the water output of the main flushing water outlet component; and / or In step S3, the water output of the brush ring water outlet component is greater than the water output of the main flush water outlet component.
[0008] As an optional implementation of the control method for the above-mentioned flushing module, in step S2, the water output of both the brush ring water outlet component and the main flush water outlet component is greater than the water output of the main flush water outlet component in step S1.
[0009] As an optional implementation of the control method of the above-mentioned flushing module, the flushing module further includes a water inlet component, which includes a water tank and a water pump. The water pump is disposed in the water tank and includes an inlet, a first outlet and a second outlet that are connected to each other.

In step S1, the water pump operates with a first duty cycle; in step S2, the water pump operates with a second duty cycle; in step S3, the water pump operates with a third duty cycle; the second duty cycle is greater than the first duty cycle and greater than the third duty cycle.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this invention are: The flushing module control method proposed in this invention, in step S1, supplies foam liquid to the brush ring water outlet assembly because the foaming agent mixture output assembly supplies foam liquid. Therefore, the brush ring water outlet assembly dispenses foam water when flushing. This foam water carries a large number of tiny bubbles, which can absorb mid-to-high frequency noise, such as the hissing and whistling sounds generated during toilet flushing. Furthermore, the water flow impact causes the bubbles to break during flushing, and the breaking of these bubbles absorbs kinetic energy, significantly attenuating the impact sound generated by the water flow. Thus, the noise reduction performance of the toilet during flushing is improved.
[0015] The toilet proposed in this invention uses the aforementioned control method for the flushing module to control its operation, which can improve the noise reduction performance of the toilet during flushing. Attached Figure Description

[0025] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0026] Example 1 To improve the noise reduction performance of the toilet during flushing, this embodiment provides a control method for the flushing module, which is used to control the flushing module of the toilet to flush.
[0027] Specifically, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 In this embodiment, the flushing module includes a brush ring water outlet component 1, a main flush water outlet component 2, and a foaming agent mixture output component 3. The foaming agent mixture output component 3 is connected to the brush ring water outlet component 1 and can supply foam liquid to the brush ring water outlet component 1.
[0028] See Figure 3 In this embodiment, the control method for the flushing module includes the following steps: S1. Control the foaming agent mixture output component 3 to supply foam liquid to the brush ring water outlet component 1, and simultaneously control both the brush ring water outlet component 1 and the main flush water outlet component 2 to output water.
[0029] The control method for the flushing module provided in this embodiment can improve the noise reduction performance of the toilet during flushing. In step S1, since the foaming agent mixture output component 3 supplies foam liquid to the brush ring water outlet component 1, the brush ring water outlet component 1 can output foam water when flushing. The foam water carries a large number of tiny bubbles, which can absorb mid-to-high frequency noise, such as the hissing and whistling sounds generated during toilet flushing. Furthermore, the water flow impact of the main flushing water outlet component 2 causes the bubbles to break, and the breaking of the bubbles can absorb kinetic energy, thus greatly attenuating the impact sound generated by the water flow. In this way, the noise reduction performance of the toilet during flushing is improved.
[0030] Furthermore, in this embodiment, in step S1, the duration for which the foaming agent mixture output component 3 supplies foam liquid to the brush ring water outlet component 1 is a first duration t; The duration of water output from the brush ring water outlet component 1 and the main flush water outlet component 2 is the second duration t1; t1≤t≤t1+a; where a is a constant.
[0031] With t1≤t, this setting ensures that the duration for which the foaming agent mixture output component 3 supplies foam liquid to the brush ring water outlet component 1 is not less than the water outlet duration of the brush ring water outlet component 1. In other words, during the water outlet process, the foaming agent mixture output component 3 continuously supplies foam liquid to the brush ring water outlet component 1, thereby ensuring that the brush ring water outlet component 1 continuously outputs foam water in step S1, thus guaranteeing that a large number of bubbles can be continuously generated in step S1.
[0032] t≤t1+a, which fully avoids the foaming agent mixture output component 3 stopping supplying foam liquid to the brush ring water outlet component 1 at the end of the water outlet period in step S1, thereby ensuring that a large number of bubbles can be continuously generated in step S1.
[0033] Optionally, in this embodiment, 'a' is no greater than one second. This setting avoids the foaming agent mixture output component 3 supplying foam liquid to the brush ring water outlet component 1 for too long, thereby preventing the foaming agent mixture output component 3 from continuing to supply foam liquid to the brush ring water outlet component 1 after step S1 is completed, thus avoiding waste of foam liquid.
[0034] Further optionally, in this embodiment, a is 0.1s, 0.2s, 0.3s, 0.4s, 0.5s, 0.6s, 0.7s, 0.8s, 0.9s, or 1s.
[0035] Of course, in other embodiments, the specific value of 'a' can also be set to other values as needed.
[0036] Further, see Figure 4 In this embodiment, the control method for the flushing module further includes the following steps: S2. Control the foaming agent mixture output component 3 to stop working or continue working, and at the same time control the brush ring water outlet component 1 and the main flush water outlet component 2 to both output water, with the water output of the main flush water outlet component 2 being the first water output. S3. Control the foaming agent mixture output component 3 to stop working or continue working, and at the same time control the brush ring water outlet component 1 and the main flush water outlet component 2 to both output water. The water output of the main flush water outlet component 2 is the second water output, which is less than the first water output.
[0037] In this embodiment, steps S1-S3 are executed sequentially, and the flushing module is controlled to perform flushing in three steps.
[0038] In step S1, since the foaming agent mixture output component 3 supplies foam liquid to the brush ring water outlet component 1, foam water can be emitted when the brush ring water outlet component 1 emits water. In step S1, both the brush ring water outlet component 1 and the main flush water outlet component 2 are controlled to emit water. At this time, the foam water sprayed by the brush ring water outlet component 1 can reduce the noise of the water emitted by the main flush water outlet component 2, thereby improving the noise reduction performance of the toilet.
[0039] After step S1 is completed, steps S2 and S3 are executed in sequence to complete the flushing operation of the toilet.
[0040] In step S2, the water output of the main flushing water outlet component 2 is the first water output; in step S3, the water output of the main flushing water outlet component 2 is the second water output, which is less than the first water output. This configuration ensures that step S2 is the main flushing stage, and the toilet is in the siphon stage during this stage, with water output from the main flushing water outlet component 2 and the brush ring water outlet component 1 flushing away waste. Since a large number of air bubbles already exist in the toilet water during step S1, in step S2, regardless of whether the foaming agent mixture output component 3 continues to operate, a large number of air bubbles are present. When the toilet performs a siphon flush, these air bubbles break, absorbing the vibrations generated during flushing and thus reducing noise during the flushing process.
[0041] In step S3, water flows from the main flushing water assembly 2 and the brush ring water assembly 1 to flush and clean the inner wall of the toilet again, preventing any residual dirt from remaining on the inner wall of the toilet.
[0042] It is understandable that the noise from the toilet is relatively low when step S3 is performed, so it is acceptable whether the foaming agent mixture output component 3 continues to work at this time.
[0043] Specifically, in this embodiment, in step S2, the foaming agent mixture output component 3 is stopped from working, while both the brush ring water outlet component 1 and the main flush water outlet component 2 are controlled to output water, with the water output of the main flush water outlet component 2 being the first water output. In step S3, the foaming agent mixture output component 3 is stopped from working, while both the brush ring water outlet component 1 and the main flush water outlet component 2 are controlled to output water, with the water output of the main flush water outlet component 2 being the second water output, which is less than the first water output. This configuration, by stopping the foaming agent mixture output component 3 in steps S2 and S3, ensures noise reduction while maximizing the conservation of foaming agent mixture.
[0044] Optionally, in another embodiment, in step S2, the foaming agent mixture output component 3 is stopped, while both the brush ring water outlet component 1 and the main flush water outlet component 2 are controlled to output water, with the water output of the main flush water outlet component 2 being the first water output. In step S3, the foaming agent mixture output component 3 is controlled to supply foam liquid to the brush ring water outlet component 1, while both the brush ring water outlet component 1 and the main flush water outlet component 2 are controlled to output water, with the water output of the main flush water outlet component 2 being the second water output, which is less than the first water output. With this configuration, since a large amount of foam has already formed in step S2, stopping the foaming agent mixture output component 3 in step S2 can still ensure the noise reduction effect. In step S3, after the toilet siphon finishes, a large amount of foam has disappeared, so at this time, the foaming agent mixture output component 3 is controlled to supply foam liquid to the brush ring water outlet component 1 to generate foam again, ensuring the noise reduction effect in step S3.
[0045] Optionally, in another embodiment, in step S2, the foaming agent mixture output component 3 is controlled to supply foam liquid to the brush ring water outlet component 1, while both the brush ring water outlet component 1 and the main flush water outlet component 2 are controlled to output water, with the water output of the main flush water outlet component 2 being a first water output. In step S3, the foaming agent mixture output component 3 is controlled to stop working, while both the brush ring water outlet component 1 and the main flush water outlet component 2 are controlled to output water, with the water output of the main flush water outlet component 2 being a second water output, which is less than the first water output. This configuration allows foam to reappear in step S2, further increasing the amount of bubbles and further reducing the noise during the toilet's siphon operation in step S2, thus further improving the noise reduction effect.
[0046] Optionally, in a new embodiment, in step S2, the foaming agent mixture output component 3 is controlled to supply foam liquid to the brush ring water outlet component 1, while both the brush ring water outlet component 1 and the main flush water outlet component 2 are controlled to output water, with the water output of the main flush water outlet component 2 being a first water output. In step S3, the foaming agent mixture output component 3 is controlled to supply foam liquid to the brush ring water outlet component 1, while both the brush ring water outlet component 1 and the main flush water outlet component 2 are controlled to output water, with the water output of the main flush water outlet component 2 being a second water output, which is less than the first water output. This configuration allows foam to reappear in step S2, further increasing the amount of bubbles and further reducing the noise during the toilet's siphoning process in step S2, thus further improving the noise reduction effect of step S2. In step S3, after the toilet siphoning process ends, the foam has disappeared. Therefore, controlling the foaming agent mixture output component 3 to supply foam liquid to the brush ring water outlet component 1 at this time can generate a large number of bubbles again, ensuring the noise reduction effect in step S3.
[0047] Optionally, in this embodiment, in step S1, the water flow rate of the brush ring water outlet assembly 1 is greater than the water flow rate of the main flush water outlet assembly 2; and / or In step S3, the water output of the brush ring water outlet component 1 is greater than the water output of the main flush water outlet component 2.
[0048] Furthermore, in step S2, the water output of both the brush ring water outlet component 1 and the main flush water outlet component 2 is greater than the water output of the main flush water outlet component 2 in step S1.
[0049] Specifically, in this embodiment, in step S1, the water output of the brush ring water outlet component 1 is greater than the water output of the main flush water outlet component 2. That is, in step S1, the water output of the brush ring water outlet component 1 is larger, so as to fully dilute the foaming agent mixture output by the foaming agent mixture output component 3 and form more foam. In this step, the main flush water outlet component 2 outputs a small amount of water, which raises the liquid level in the toilet and initially accumulates water pressure.
[0050] In step S2, both the main flush water outlet assembly 2 and the brush ring water outlet assembly 1 dispense a large amount of water, causing the water level in the toilet to rise rapidly, thus enabling the water level in the toilet to quickly reach the siphon critical height. When the water level in the toilet reaches the siphon critical height, the negative pressure in the pipe takes effect, and the water level in the toilet then drops rapidly, completing the flushing process.
[0051] In step S3, the water flow rate of the brush ring water outlet assembly 1 is greater than that of the main flush water outlet assembly 2. That is, in this step, the water flow rate of the brush ring water outlet assembly 1 is larger, so as to thoroughly rinse and clean the inner wall of the toilet after the waste is flushed away. In step S3, the main flush water outlet assembly 2 dispenses water at a relatively small flow rate to replenish the water in the toilet, so that the water level in the toilet can be restored to the initial water level.
[0052] Further, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 The flushing module also includes a water inlet component 4, which includes a water tank 41 and a water pump 42. The water pump 42 is located inside the water tank 41 and includes an inlet 421, a first outlet 422 and a second outlet 423 that are connected to each other. The brush ring water outlet component 1 is connected to the first outlet 422, and the main flush water outlet component 2 is connected to the first outlet 422. In step S1, the water pump 42 operates with a first duty cycle; in step S2, the water pump 42 operates with a second duty cycle; in step S3, the water pump 42 operates with a third duty cycle; the second duty cycle is greater than the first duty cycle and greater than the third duty cycle.
[0053] That is, in step S1, the water pump 42 operates with a lower duty cycle; in step S2, the water pump 42 operates with a higher duty cycle; and in step S3, the water pump 42 operates with a lower duty cycle.
[0054] In step S2, the water pump 42 operates at a high duty cycle, with a relatively faster rotation speed, greater water pressure and flow rate, which can form a strong siphon to flush away the dirt.
[0055] Optionally, in this embodiment, the second duty cycle is 70%-90%. For example, the second duty cycle is 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, or 90%. Of course, in other embodiments, the value of the second duty cycle can also be set to other values as needed.
[0056] Optionally, in this embodiment, the first duty cycle is 15%-30%. For example, the first duty cycle is 15%, 20%, 25%, or 30%. Of course, in other embodiments, the value of the first duty cycle can also be set to other values as needed.
[0057] Optionally, in this embodiment, the third duty cycle is 15%-30%. For example, the third duty cycle is 15%, 20%, 25%, or 30%. Of course, in other embodiments, the value of the third duty cycle can also be set to other values as needed.
[0058] In order to further improve the noise reduction performance of the control method of the flushing module when controlling the flushing module to flush, in step S1, the operating duty cycle of the water pump 42 is increased from 0% to the first duty cycle at a first set speed. In step S2, the operating duty cycle of the water pump 42 is increased from the first duty cycle to the second duty cycle at a second set speed; In step S3, the operating duty cycle of the water pump 42 is reduced from the second duty cycle to the third duty cycle at a third set speed.
[0059] In step S1, the operating duty cycle of water pump 42 increases from 0% to a first duty cycle at a first set speed; this setting ensures a slow transition in the increase of the duty cycle of water pump 42, resulting in lower operating noise. In step S2, the operating duty cycle of water pump 42 increases from the first duty cycle to a second duty cycle at a second set speed; this setting ensures a slow increase in the operating duty cycle of water pump 42, resulting in lower operating noise. In step S3, the operating duty cycle of water pump 42 decreases from the second duty cycle to a third duty cycle at a third set speed; this setting ensures a slow decrease in the operating duty cycle of water pump 42, resulting in lower operating noise.
[0060] Specifically, the first set speed, the second set speed, and the third set speed can be set as needed.
[0061] Specifically, see Figure 6 In this embodiment, in steps S1 and S3, the impeller of the water pump 42 is controlled to rotate in the first clockwise direction.
[0062] See Figure 7 In step S2, the impeller of the water pump 42 is controlled to rotate in the second clockwise direction, while the first clockwise direction is opposite to the second clockwise direction.
[0063] Specifically, in steps S1 and S3, the impeller of water pump 42 is controlled to rotate in reverse. In step S2, the impeller of water pump 42 is controlled to rotate in forward.
[0064] For example, see Figure 6 At this time, the impeller of water pump 42 rotates in the first clockwise direction; see also Figure 7 The impeller of water pump 42 rotates in the second clockwise direction.
[0065] Furthermore, in the flushing module, the flow area of the first water outlet 422 is smaller than that of the second water outlet 423, so as to ensure that the water output of the main flushing water component 2 is relatively large when flushing away the waste, thus completing the flushing operation of the toilet.
[0066] Example 2 This embodiment provides a flushing module.
[0067] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 In this embodiment, the flushing module includes a brush ring water outlet assembly 1, a main flush water outlet assembly 2, and a foaming agent mixture output assembly 3. The foaming agent mixture output assembly 3 is connected to the brush ring water outlet assembly 1 and can supply foaming agent to the brush ring water outlet assembly 1.
[0068] In this embodiment, the flushing module is controlled using the control method of the flushing module in Embodiment 1.
[0069] In this embodiment, the flushing module, during the flushing operation, in step S1, supplies foam liquid to the brush ring water outlet assembly 1 because the foaming agent mixture output assembly 3 supplies foam liquid. Therefore, the brush ring water outlet assembly 1 dispenses foam water when flushing. This foam water carries a large number of tiny bubbles, which can absorb mid-to-high frequency noise, such as the hissing and whistling sounds generated during toilet flushing. Furthermore, the water flow impact causes the bubbles to break during flushing, and the breaking of these bubbles absorbs kinetic energy, significantly attenuating the impact sound generated by the water flow. Thus, the noise reduction performance of the toilet during flushing is improved.
[0070] Further, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figures 5-7The flushing module also includes a water inlet component 4, which includes a water tank 41 and a water pump 42. The water pump 42 is located inside the water tank 41 and includes an inlet 421, a first outlet 422 and a second outlet 423 that are connected to each other. The brush ring water outlet component 1 is connected to the first outlet 422, and the main flush water outlet component 2 is connected to the first outlet 422.
[0071] Alternatively, in this embodiment, the flow area of the first water outlet 422 is smaller than the flow area of the second water outlet 423. This arrangement ensures that the water output of the main flushing assembly 2 is large during step S2, thereby guaranteeing the siphon effect of the toilet.
[0072] Example 3 This embodiment provides a toilet.
[0073] See Figures 1-4 In this embodiment, the toilet includes a flushing module, and the flushing module is controlled to operate using the control method described in Embodiment 1.
[0074] In this embodiment, when the toilet is flushed, in step S1, because the foaming agent mixture output component 3 supplies foam liquid to the brush ring water outlet component 1, the brush ring water outlet component 1 can output foam water when water is discharged. The foam water carries a large number of tiny bubbles, which can absorb mid-to-high frequency noise, such as the hissing and whistling sounds generated during toilet flushing. Furthermore, the water flow impact causes the bubbles to break during flushing, and the breaking of the bubbles can absorb kinetic energy, thus greatly attenuating the impact sound generated by the water flow. In this way, the noise reduction performance of the toilet during flushing is improved.
