Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of sanitary ware, in particular to a hands-free lift-type toilet. Background Art

[0002] Toilets are not unfamiliar in our lives and are common daily necessities. Existing toilets are usually composed of a toilet plus a series of related components such as a toilet seat, a toilet cover, a water tank, etc. At home, men and women use toilets in slightly different ways. When men urinate, they usually need to lift the toilet seat to prevent urine and other waste liquids from splashing onto the toilet seat and causing bacteria to grow. The process of lifting the toilet seat with hands can easily cause bacteria to stick to the hands, which is unhygienic. Although a protective cover is put on the toilet seat in some occasions, the above problems cannot be avoided. In addition, when men urinate at a distance from the toilet, it is easy to cause urine to splash, which causes many problems. Utility Model Content

[0034] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 The utility model shows a hands-free toilet in one embodiment, comprising: a toilet seat body 15, which is movably connected to the toilet 13 through a first movable member 3, and the first movable member 3 facilitates the toilet seat body 15 to be fixed on the toilet 13 and realizes the rotation function; a push ring 16, which is located in front of and on both sides of the toilet 13; a pair of rollers 4, which are respectively located between the bottom surfaces on both sides of the toilet seat body 15 and the top surfaces on both sides of the toilet 13; a pair of guide rails 10, which are respectively located on the two side walls of the toilet 13; a pair of reciprocating motion components, which are respectively located on both sides of the toilet 13, such as Figure 2As shown, each reciprocating motion component includes a block 5, a return spring 17, a slider 12, and a rod-shaped component arranged on a push ring 16 for connecting to a corresponding roller 4, and the slider 12 is connected to the corresponding position of the push ring 16 through a slide rod 11. In the guide rail 10, the slider 12 and the block 5 are respectively located at the front and rear ends of the guide rail 10, and the return spring 17 is connected to the block 5 at one end and connected to the slider 12 at the other end. The slider 12 can slide back and forth in the guide rail 10; the setting of the push ring 16 replaces the traditional lifting action of the toilet seat with a pushing method by leg strength, so that men can lift the toilet seat when urinating without touching the toilet seat with their hands.

[0035] The working principle of the utility model is: without external force, the toilet seat body 15 is in a first position that is in contact with or nearly in contact with the top surface of the toilet 13, such as Figure 3 As shown, when subjected to external force, such as a male user pushing the push ring 16 with the leg force, the rod-shaped component synchronously drives the slider 12 to move together, and the roller 4 is caused to roll from front to back during the process, thereby causing the toilet seat body 15 to be lifted (lifted) to a second position that forms a certain angle with the top surface of the toilet 13, thereby realizing the lifting of the toilet seat body 15. The specific angle can be designed according to the actual application scenario, such as Figure 4 As shown in the figure, during the process, the return spring 17 is compressed and deformed, and this process also makes the male user get closer to the toilet. When the male user finishes urinating, he only needs to walk away, and the external force of the push ring 16 disappears. When the external force disappears, under the dual action of the rebound force of the return spring 17 and the weight of the toilet ring body 15 itself, the roller 4 and the push ring 16 return to their positions, so that the toilet ring body 15 falls back to the first position, as shown in the figure. Figure 3 As shown, the function of the toilet seat being able to be lifted hands-free and automatically fall back is achieved.

[0036] In this example, the return spring 17 is a coil spring; the rod-shaped component includes a connecting plate 8 located at the end of the push ring 16, a mounting block 7 mounted on the surface of the connecting plate 8, and a crossbar 6 disposed on the mounting block 7, and the roller 4 is disposed at the end of the crossbar 6. Preferably, the height of the mounting block 7 is flush with the height of the toilet seat 15 when it is in the first position.

[0037] In this embodiment, the push ring 16 is arc-shaped and surrounds the front and both sides of the toilet 13 .

[0038] In this embodiment, the bottom surfaces of both sides of the toilet ring body 15 are respectively provided with slots 14 for accommodating a pair of rollers 4 at positions corresponding to a pair of rollers 4, that is, when the toilet ring body 15 is in the first position, the rollers 4 just fall into the slots 14, so that the toilet ring body 15 can be more closely fitted with the top surface of the toilet 13 when it is in the first position, and it is convenient to position the toilet ring body 15, and the diameter of the roller 4 is preferably less than or equal to the inner diameter of the slot 14. Preferably, when the roller 4 is inserted into the slot 14, the distance between the push ring 16 and the toilet 13 is selected according to the actual design scenario. In this example, when there is no external force on the toilet ring body 15 and the roller 4 falls into the slot 14, the farthest distance between the top center A of the push ring 16 and the end B of the toilet 13 is 30-35cm.

[0039] In this embodiment, auxiliary plates 9 are respectively provided on both sides of the toilet seat body 15 to facilitate the cleaning staff to manually lift up the toilet seat body 15 during cleaning. In this example, the auxiliary plates 9 are triangular.

[0040] In this embodiment, the block 5 is made of rubber and has a U-shaped structure to better position the reset spring 17. The toilet 13 is also provided with a toilet cover 1 movably connected through a second movable member 2, and the second movable member 2 realizes the fixation and rotation of the toilet cover 1 on the toilet.

[0041] The technical features of the above-described embodiments may be arbitrarily combined. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described 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.

[0042] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the utility model, and the description is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this field, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the utility model, which all belong to the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model patent shall be based on the attached claims.
