DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0023] The embodiment of the present application provides a toilet with a self-cleaning function, which can solve the problem that most toilets in the related art do not have an automatic floor cleaning function, resulting in the toilet floor cleaning work usually relying on manual work, which is not only inefficient but also untimely.

[0024] See also Figure 1-Figure 3 A toilet with a self-cleaning function comprises: a toilet 1, a pipe 2, a flushing mechanism 3 and a drying mechanism 4, the pipe 2 is arranged inside the toilet 1, a plurality of nozzles 5 are arranged on the pipe 2, the flushing mechanism 3 is connected to the pipe 2 and is used to flush the toilet 1, and the drying mechanism 4 is connected to the pipe 2 and is used to dry the toilet 1.

[0025] When the toilet needs to be flushed, the flushing mechanism 3 starts working. It delivers clean water or other cleaning liquids to the inside of the toilet through the pipe 2. These liquids are evenly sprayed on the floor and the bottom of the wall of the toilet through a number of nozzles 5 arranged on the pipe 2, effectively removing stains and excrement remaining on the floor.

[0026] After flushing is completed, the drying mechanism 4 starts to work. It is also connected to the toilet through the pipeline 2, but it delivers dry hot air. This hot air is blown to the floor and wall of the toilet through the nozzle 5, quickly evaporating the remaining moisture and restoring the toilet to a dry state.

[0027] In this way, the synergy ensures that the toilet can efficiently and automatically complete the two core steps of flushing and drying, completely abandoning the traditional manual cleaning method. This automated design not only significantly improves the efficiency of cleaning work, allowing the toilet to be restored to cleanliness in a short period of time, but also greatly reduces labor costs and liberates labor. And it can be processed in real time as needed, so that the sanitation of the toilet has been significantly improved and maintained at a high level for a long time.

[0028] Compared with traditional manual cleaning methods, this method does not require the use of cleaning tools such as brooms and mops, thus avoiding the bacteria that may be bred by these tools during the cleaning process and effectively reducing the risk of secondary contamination.

[0029] It should be noted that a squat toilet 6 is provided inside the toilet cubicle 1 in the present embodiment.

[0030] Specifically, Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the pipe 2 is U-shaped and is arranged at the bottom of the side wall of the toilet 1.

[0031] The design of the U-shaped pipe 2 allows the liquid to flow smoothly and can effectively prevent odor from flowing back, thereby ensuring the air quality of the toilet. At the same time, since the pipe 2 is arranged at the bottom of the side wall of the toilet 1, the flushing mechanism 3 and the drying mechanism 4 can clean and dry the toilet more directly and effectively.

[0032] Specifically, when the flushing mechanism 3 is activated, the cleaning liquid quickly flows to the squatting pan 6 and the toilet floor through the U-shaped pipe 2, and performs comprehensive and uniform flushing. The drying mechanism 4 delivers hot air to every corner of the toilet through the same pipe to quickly dry the remaining moisture.

[0033] It should be noted that a side door is provided on the toilet 1, and an open end of the U-shaped pipe 2 is arranged opposite to the toilet 1, so as to facilitate the user's entry and exit.

[0034] Preferably, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the flushing mechanism 3 in this embodiment includes a high-pressure water pump 31, a connecting pipe 32 and a solenoid valve 33. The high-pressure water pump 31 is arranged on the toilet 1, one end of the connecting pipe 32 is connected to the water outlet of the high-pressure water pump 31, and the other end thereof is connected to the pipe 2. The solenoid valve 33 is arranged on the connecting pipe 32, wherein the other end of the high-pressure water pump 31 is connected to an external water supply pipe.

[0035] As the core component of the flushing mechanism 3, the high-pressure water pump 31 is installed on the toilet 1 and is responsible for providing a stable and high-pressure water flow. The connecting pipe 1 32 connects the high-pressure water pump 31 with the pipeline 2 to ensure that the flushing liquid can flow smoothly to the various areas of the toilet that need to be cleaned. The other end of the high-pressure water pump 31 is connected to the external water supply pipeline. This allows the flushing mechanism 3 to continuously obtain fresh and clean water, ensuring the flushing effect and sanitary quality.

[0036] One end of the connecting pipe 32 is closely connected to the water outlet of the high-pressure water pump 31, and the other end is connected to the pipe 2, thereby forming a complete flushing circuit. The solenoid valve 33 is installed on the connecting pipe 32, and as a control component of the flushing mechanism, it can accurately control the flow of the flushing liquid according to the preset program or sensing signal. When the solenoid valve 33 is opened, the high-pressure water flow generated by the high-pressure water pump 31 enters the pipe 2 through the connecting pipe 32, thereby performing a comprehensive and efficient flushing of the toilet.

[0037] Preferably, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the drying mechanism 4 in this embodiment includes an electric high-pressure fan 41, a connecting pipe 42 and a solenoid valve 43. The electric high-pressure fan 41 is arranged on the toilet 1, and the air outlet of the electric high-pressure fan 41 is connected to the connecting pipe 42, and the other end of the connecting pipe 42 is connected to the pipeline 2, and the solenoid valve 43 is arranged on the connecting pipe 42.

[0038] The electric heating high pressure blower 41 is installed on the toilet 1. It can not only generate strong wind force, but also has an electric heating function, which can heat the air to a certain temperature, thereby accelerating the evaporation rate of water.

[0039] The connecting pipe 2 42 is responsible for conveying the hot air generated by the electric high-pressure fan 41 to the pipe 2. One end is closely connected to the air outlet of the electric high-pressure fan 41 to ensure that the hot air can fully enter the pipe; the other end is connected to the pipe 2, so that the hot air can be evenly distributed to every corner of the toilet. The solenoid valve 2 43 is installed on the connecting pipe 2 42. As a control component, it can accurately control the flow of hot air according to a preset program or sensing signal. When the solenoid valve 2 43 is opened, the hot air generated by the electric high-pressure fan 41 enters the pipe 2 through the connecting pipe 2 42, thereby quickly and efficiently drying the toilet.

[0040] It should be noted that the electric high-pressure blower in this embodiment is the preferred product for upgrading the modern industrial heat source. It is widely used in hot air conveying furnaces, drying furnaces, ovens, packaging machines and other automated machinery. It is the best hot air source configuration for automated machinery in the hot air drying industry. It usually consists of three major parts: a high-pressure blower, a heater, and a control circuit. When working, the blower blows air into the heater, and the air passes evenly through the inside and outside of the spiral heating wire. The heat generated by the heating wire after being energized exchanges heat with the cold air passing through, thereby increasing the air temperature at the outlet. This is a prior art and will not be repeated here.

[0041] It should be noted that in order to facilitate the connection with the connecting pipe 32 and the connecting pipe 42, a connecting head is provided on the pipeline 2. The end of the connecting pipe 32 away from the high-pressure water pump 31 is connected to the adapter, and the end of the connecting pipe 42 away from the electric heating high-pressure fan 41 is connected to the connecting head.

[0042] As a preferred embodiment, the present implementation also includes a control mechanism 7, which includes an electric controller 71, which is arranged on the toilet 1, and the electric controller 71 is electrically connected to the high-pressure water pump 31, the solenoid valve 1 33, the electric heating high-pressure fan 41 and the solenoid valve 2 43 respectively.

[0043] In this embodiment, in order to achieve accurate control of the flushing mechanism 3 and the drying mechanism 4, a control mechanism 7 is specially introduced. The electric controller 71 is installed on the toilet 1 and is respectively connected to the high-pressure water pump 31, the solenoid valve 1 33, the electric heating high-pressure fan 41 and the solenoid valve 2 43 through wires or other electrical connection methods.

[0044] The electronic controller 71 serves as the "brain" of the entire system, and is responsible for receiving and processing various input signals, and issuing control instructions to various execution components according to preset programs or real-time usage requirements.

[0045] In actual operation, when the toilet needs to be flushed, the electronic controller 71 will receive a corresponding signal, which may be a signal from a sensor or a signal manually triggered by the user. It will then instruct the high-pressure water pump 31 to start and simultaneously open the solenoid valve 33, so that the cleaning liquid can smoothly enter the pipe 2 to flush the toilet.

[0046] Similarly, when flushing is completed, the electronic controller 71 detects the signal that the flushing process is over, which may be based on the judgment of time, flow rate or other parameters, and then it will instruct the high-pressure water pump 31 to stop working and close the solenoid valve 1 33. Then, the electronic controller 71 will start the drying process, instruct the electric high-pressure fan 41 to start, and open the solenoid valve 2 43 at the same time, so that hot air can enter the pipe 2 to dry the toilet.

[0047] This electronically controlled design not only improves the automation of the entire system, but also allows users to use the toilet more conveniently. At the same time, since the electronic controller 71 can accurately control the operation of each component, the efficiency and effect of flushing and drying are greatly improved.

[0048] In addition, the electronic controller 71 can also be flexibly programmed and adjusted according to usage requirements and actual conditions to adapt to different usage scenarios and requirements. For example, the time and intensity of washing and drying can be adjusted according to the user's usage habits to achieve better usage effects.

[0049] An electric controller is a device used to control electrical equipment, usually including a program counter, an instruction register, an instruction decoder, a timing generator, an operation controller, etc. Its core function is to coordinate and direct the operation of the entire system by issuing commands. This is a prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0050] Furthermore, the present embodiment also includes an infrared sensor 8 , which is disposed inside the toilet 1 , and is electrically connected to the electric controller 71 , wherein the side door is disposed opposite to the infrared sensor 8 .

[0051] The infrared sensor 8 is installed inside the toilet 1 to ensure that it can accurately sense the usage status of the toilet. The infrared sensor 8 is electrically connected to the electric controller 71 so that the data collected by the sensor can be transmitted to the electric controller in real time, thereby triggering corresponding control actions.

[0052] In actual operation, the infrared sensor 8 detects whether there is someone in the toilet. When someone enters the toilet, the infrared sensor 8 can quickly sense the heat of the human body and send this signal to the electronic controller 71. After receiving the signal, the electronic controller 71 will perform corresponding operations according to the preset program, turn off the flushing mechanism 3, and keep the drying mechanism 4 on to ensure that the toilet can be dried quickly when the user uses it.

[0053] When the user leaves the toilet, the infrared sensor 8 sends this signal to the electronic controller 71. After receiving the signal, the electronic controller 71 will perform corresponding operations according to the preset program, start the flushing mechanism 3 to flush the toilet floor, or start the drying mechanism 4 to dry the toilet. The electronic controller 71 controls the operating time of the flushing mechanism 3 and the drying mechanism 4 according to the preset time.
