It should be understood that the specific embodiments described here are only used to explain the utility model and are not used to limit the utility model.

[0019] It should be noted that in the present invention, the terms "up", "down", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inside", "outside", etc. are based on the orientation or position relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element of the present invention must have a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0020] Example

[0021] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the utility model discloses a multifunctional button, including a button seat 1, a full-row button 2, a half-row button 3, a stop button 4 and a button rod 5. A button slot 11 is provided on the button seat 1. The full-row button 2, the half-row button 3 and the stop button 4 are adjacent and are all movably inserted in the button slot 11 along the vertical direction. A button rod hole 12 is provided at the bottom of the button slot 11. The button rod 5 is movably inserted in the button rod hole 12 along the vertical direction. The button rod 5 includes three groups. The top ends of the three groups of button rods 5 are respectively in contact with the full-row button 2, the half-row button 3 and the stop button 4, and the bottom ends thereof are all in contact with the drainage drive button 7 of the external toilet tank drainage valve.

[0022] The key slot 11 includes a full-row slot 111, a half-row slot 112 and an instant-stop slot 113 for the full-row keys 2, the half-row keys 3 and the instant-stop keys 4 to move up and down respectively. The instant-stop slot 113 is adjacent to one of the full-row slots 111 or the half-row slots 112 and is located on one side of the key slot 11. The other group of half-row slots 112 or the full-row slots 111 is located on the other side of the key slot 11. The drainage drive button 7 includes a full-row drive button and a half-row drive button that are adjacent to each other on the left and right. In this embodiment, the instant-stop slot 113 and the half-row slots 112 are adjacent to each other on the left side of the key slot 11, and the full-row slot 111 is located alone on the right side of the key slot 11. The instant-stop key 4 and the half-row keys 3 use the half-row drive button together, and the full-row key 2 uses the full-row drive button alone.

[0023] The side wall of the stop groove 113 is provided with a limiting rib 114, which limits the downward pressing stroke of the stop button 4 in the stop groove 113, so that the stop button 4 will not trigger the full or half drain function of the drainage drive button 7 when pressed. When the stop button is pressed by a finger, the drainage valve immediately starts draining, and the drainage stops immediately when it is released.

[0024] The anti-roll bar 13 is arranged at the bottom of the full-row key 2 or the half-row key 3 located on one side of the key slot 11 and on both sides of the key rod 12, and the bottom of the full-row slot 111 or the half-row slot 112 is provided with an anti-roll hole 115 for the anti-roll bar 13 to pass through. In this embodiment, the anti-roll bar 13 is arranged on the full-row key 2, and the anti-roll hole 115 is arranged on the full-row slot 111. By inserting the anti-roll bar 13 into the anti-roll hole 115, the full-row key 2 is prevented from tilting and moving during the pressing process, which makes it impossible to move up and reset later.

[0025] The bottom ends of the side walls of the full-row keys 2, the half-row keys 3 and the stop keys 4 are all provided with anti-drop hooks 6, and the groove walls of the full-row slots 111, the half-row slots 112 and the stop slots 113 are all provided with anti-drop grooves 116 for the anti-drop hooks 6 to be inserted into and move up and down. By inserting the anti-drop hooks 6 into the anti-drop grooves 116, the normal pressing of the keys is not affected, and the keys are prevented from popping out of the notches of the key slots 11.

[0026] The notch of the key slot 11 is provided with a supporting step 14 , the upper cover of the supporting step 14 is provided with a decorative ring 15 , the supporting step 14 is provided with a mounting slot 141 , the decorative ring 15 is provided with a mounting hook 151 which is inserted into the mounting slot 141 and fixed, so that the decorative ring 15 is fixedly installed in the notch of the key slot 11 .

[0027] The top end of the key rod 5 is sleeved with a spring 8, and the bottom end of the spring 8 is connected to the bottom of the key groove 11, so that the spring 8 supports the key rod 5 to return to its original position after the external pressing force on the key rod 5 is removed.

[0028] The above is only a preferred specific implementation of the utility model, but the protection scope of the utility model is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by a person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the utility model should be included in the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model should be based on the protection scope of the claims.
