Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of urinals, in particular to a urinal with a door opening device. Background Art
[0002] Urinals in public toilets or workplace toilets often leak urine because men do not get close enough to the urinals when they go to the bathroom. This creates a vicious cycle where men move further away from the urinals, causing more urine to leak and making it harder to clean. This causes the sanitary environment in the bathroom to deteriorate rapidly, the difficulty and frequency of cleaning to increase significantly, the user experience to decrease, and the risk of bacterial transmission to increase. For this reason, urinals in public toilets now have warnings such as "a small step forward, a big step forward for civilization" and "close to civilization, close to convenience".

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0017] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments.
[0018] Reference Figure 1-3 A urinal with a door opening device comprises a urinal body 1, both sides of the urinal body 1 are provided with limiting grooves 12, and the limiting grooves 12 are respectively provided with a first door panel mechanism 2-1 and a second door panel mechanism 2-2, and the first door panel mechanism 2-1 and the second door panel mechanism 2-2 are symmetrically arranged, and a plurality of fixed protrusions 3 are symmetrically arranged at equal distances on both sides of the front end surface of the urinal body 1, an infrared proximity sensing switch 31 is clamped in the middle of the front end surface of the fixed protrusion 3, and a transparent window plate 4 is installed on the top of the front end surface of the urinal body 1. It is worth noting that the specific structure, connection method and working method of the urinal body 1 are all prior arts, and do not belong to the main technical problems solved in this technical solution.
[0019] At the same time, the first door panel mechanism 2-1 and the second door panel mechanism 2-2 both include a door panel 2, and fixed shafts are installed on the top and bottom of the door panel 2 on the side close to the infrared proximity sensing switch 31, and the fixed shaft on the top of the door panel 2 is driven by the forward and reverse drive motor 21. It is worth noting that the specific structure, connection method and working method of the forward and reverse drive motor 21 are all existing technologies and do not belong to the main technical problems to be solved in this technical solution.
[0020] At the same time, a groove is opened in the urinal body 1 at the bottom fixed axis of the door panel 2, and the fixed axis at the top of the door panel 2 is connected to the output shaft of the forward and reverse drive motor 21, and the fixed axis at the bottom of the door panel 2 is inserted into the groove of the urinal body 1.

The porous buffer layer 11 prevents the user's urine from flowing along the holes of the porous buffer layer 11 to the inner wall of the urinal body 1 when urinating, thereby preventing the urine from splashing back and affecting the urination experience. It is worth mentioning that the structure of the super-hydrophobic micro-nano water-conducting layer is similar to the hydrophobic structure on the surface of a lotus leaf, and the super-hydrophobic micro-nano water-conducting layer prevents the user's urine from adhering to or being retained in the urinal body 1.

When the infrared proximity sensing switch 31 senses a person, the forward and reverse drive motor 21 is controlled to rotate forward, so that the first door panel mechanism 2-1 and the second door panel mechanism 2-2 are in an open state, and then the user can urinate normally.
[0025] When the infrared proximity sensor switch 31 does not sense a person, the forward and reverse driving motor 21 is controlled to reverse, and the first door panel mechanism 2-1 and the second door panel mechanism 2-2 are in a closed state, and the user cannot urinate normally.
[0026] Furthermore, by providing a plurality of infrared proximity sensing switches 31 , it is convenient to ensure that people of different heights and shoulder widths within a certain range can be sensed by the infrared proximity sensing switches 31 .
[0027] The porous buffer layer 11 can prevent the user's urine from flowing along the holes of the porous buffer layer 11 to the inner wall of the urinal body 1 when urinating, thereby preventing the urine from splashing back and affecting the urination experience. It is worth mentioning that the structure of the super-hydrophobic micro-nano water-conducting layer is similar to the hydrophobic structure of the lotus leaf surface, and the super-hydrophobic micro-nano water-conducting layer can prevent the urine from adhering to or being retained in the urinal body 1.
[0028] At the same time, an inclined surface is provided at the connection between the bottom of the limiting groove 12 and the inner wall of the urinal body 1, so that urine splashed onto the surface of the door panel 2 can flow along its super-hydrophobic micro-nano water-conducting layer to the bottom of the limiting groove 12 and flow along the inclined surface to the inner wall of the urinal body 1.
[0029] Furthermore, the transparent window plate 4 can avoid the trouble of the user having the urine odor rushing directly into the nose when the user urinates near the bowl, and can facilitate the user to observe the direction of the urine stream when urinating.
[0030] In the utility model, when the infrared proximity sensing switch 31 senses a person, the first door panel mechanism 2-1 and the second door panel mechanism 2-2 are in an open state, and the user can urinate normally. When the infrared proximity sensing switch 31 does not sense a person, the first door panel mechanism 2-1 and the second door panel mechanism 2-2 are in a closed state, and the user cannot urinate normally. By setting a plurality of infrared proximity sensing switches 31, it is convenient to ensure that people of different heights and shoulder widths within a certain range can be sensed by the infrared proximity sensing switch 31.
