[0001] The utility model relates to the field of sanitary ware detection, and particularly relates to a detection device for detecting the flatness of a toilet base. Background Art

[0002] The toilet base includes a toilet seat ring base and a toilet water tank base. A toilet seat ring and a toilet cover plate are installed on the toilet seat ring base, and a toilet water tank is installed on the toilet water tank base.

[0003] The flatness of the upper surface of the toilet base directly affects the comfort and convenience of users. If the installation surface of the toilet seat ring base on the toilet base for installing the toilet seat ring is uneven, it will cause the toilet seat ring and the toilet cover plate to shake during the use of the toilet after the toilet seat ring is installed. The user cannot sit stably, which affects the user's mood and experience. At the same time, it may also affect the closing and opening of the toilet cover plate, further affecting the user's experience during use. If the installation surface of the toilet water tank base on the toilet base for installing the water tank is uneven, after the toilet water tank is installed, the toilet water tank may shake and leak. Therefore, it is necessary to measure the flatness of the upper surface of the toilet base before leaving the factory. The existing measuring tools determine the flatness of the toilet by measuring the gap between the ground and the upper surface of the toilet base. However, this measuring method first requires ensuring the flatness of the ground, and according to the shape of the toilet, multiple gaps need to be measured, resulting in low measuring efficiency. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to overcome the deficiencies in the prior art and provide a detection device for detecting the flatness of a toilet base, which can detect the flatness of the upper surface of the toilet seat ring base and the upper surface of the toilet water tank base on the toilet base by quickly measuring the gap between the toilet base and the measuring device.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0019] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without making creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0020] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 , which is a detection device for detecting the flatness of a toilet provided for the preferred embodiment of the present utility model, including a first detection plate 1, a second detection plate 2 and a connecting device 3. The first detection plate 1 and the second detection plate 2 are hinged through the connecting device 3, and the thicknesses of the first detection plate 1 and the second detection plate 2 are the same. Among them, the first detection plate 1 is arranged on the toilet tank base 5, and the second detection plate 2 is arranged on the toilet seat base 4. The toilet tank base 5 is arranged behind the toilet seat base 4 and is connected to the toilet seat base 4 to form a toilet base as a whole. In order to more clearly distinguish the toilet tank base 5 and the toilet seat base 4, they are distinguished by dashed lines in Figure 2 . There are a toilet cover mounting hole and a toilet tank mounting hole on the toilet tank base 5. At the lower surface of the first detection plate 1, there are downwardly arranged positioning columns 12, and the positioning columns 12 can respectively cooperate with the toilet cover mounting hole and the toilet tank mounting hole, so as to mount the detection device on the toilet base.

[0021] The first detection plate 1 is provided with an observation port according to the contour of the toilet tank. The first detection plate 1 is provided with a surrounding plate along the periphery of the observation port. The surrounding plate is similar to the contour of the toilet tank base. There are a plurality of measurement holes 11 on the surrounding plate, and the measurement holes 11 are through holes. The measurement holes 11 are arranged on the surrounding plate corresponding to the toilet tank base 5 and are spaced at a certain interval from each other.

[0022] During detection, a measuring ruler is inserted through the measuring hole 11. The measuring ruler is used to measure the distance between the first detection plate 1 and the toilet tank base 5. The measuring ruler is a tool for precisely measuring distances. In this embodiment, the measuring ruler has a columnar structure and is designed with fine scale markings for accurately reading the measurement results. The length of the measuring ruler should be long enough to cover the maximum possible distance from the upper surface of the first detection plate 1 to the toilet tank base 5, with a margin for easy operation. Clear scale lines are engraved along the length of the measuring ruler, and each scale line represents a certain distance unit. The user can select an appropriate measurement accuracy according to needs. During measurement, the bottom end face of the measuring ruler is closely attached to the upper surface of the toilet tank base 5, and the upper surface of the measuring hole 11 is aligned visually or with the aid of tools (such as a vernier caliper). The scale value corresponding to the upper surface of the measuring hole 11 on the measuring ruler is read. Since the thickness of the first measuring plate is known, the distance between the lower surface of the first detection plate 1 and the upper surface of the toilet tank base 5, that is, the gap between the first detection plate and the toilet tank base 5, can be obtained. When the scale values measured corresponding to the upper surfaces of all the measuring holes are within the quality requirement scale value range, it can be considered that the flatness of the water tank installation plane of the water tank base of the toilet base meets the requirements.

[0023] The second detection plate 2 is similar to the contour of the toilet seat ring and includes a ring plate and a reinforcing plate. The lower surface of the ring plate has a spacer 21. There is a notch 22 on the ring plate outside the spacer 21. The notch 22 is provided to facilitate inserting the thickness gauge mentioned below under the spacer 21 and to facilitate reading the scale on the gauge. A horizontally arranged reinforcing plate 23 is connected in the middle of the ring plate. The reinforcing plate 23 is provided to enable the second detection plate 2 to be stable and not deformed.

[0024] During specific detection, this embodiment also includes a thickness gauge. The thickness gauge is a tool for measuring gaps. Its lower surface is a smooth horizontal plane to ensure close fitting with the measurement surface; the upper surface is designed as a stepped structure, forming plug blocks that gradually thicken from front to back. The thickness gauge marks the corresponding thickness scales on each plug block for directly reading the gap width. During measurement, the thickness gauge is inserted into the gap between the spacer 21 of the second detection plate 2 and the toilet seat ring base 4 through the notch of the second detection plate 2. According to the plug block that can finally be inserted into the gap, the thickness scale on the plug block is read, and the gap size can be known. If the gap values between all the spacers 21 and the toilet seat ring base 4 are within the quality requirement range, it can be considered that the flatness of the surface of the toilet seat ring base 4 meets the requirements.

[0025] See Figure 3 , the connecting device 3, as a key component in the present utility model, its main function is to achieve a stable and flexible hinged connection between the first detection plate 1 and the second detection plate 2 to simulate the toilet seat ring with the second detection plate 2.

[0026] Specifically, the connecting device 3 is arranged on the left and right sides of the first connecting plate 1, and the connecting device 3 mainly consists of a hinge seat 31, a connecting plate 32, and a hinge shaft 33.

[0027] The hinge seat 31 is a fixed component, designed with a sturdy base and an upward protruding part. A round hole is opened in the center of the protruding part for installing the hinge shaft 33. The hinge seat 31 is firmly installed on the upper surface of the first detection plate 1 by bolts or other fastening methods to ensure that it will not loosen or fall off during the detection process.

[0028] The hinge shaft 33 is a cylindrical metal rod, and its diameter matches the round hole on the hinge seat 31 to ensure a tight fit. The two ends of the hinge shaft 33 are respectively inserted into the round holes of the two hinge seats 31 and fixed by lock nuts or other locking devices to form a rotation axis.

[0029] The connecting plate 32 is an L-shaped plate structure. The end of its long plate part is connected to the hinge seat 31 through the hinge shaft 33. A hole matching the hinge shaft 33 is opened at the end of the long plate, and the connecting plate 32 is installed on the hinge shaft through this hole, enabling the connecting plate 32 to rotate freely around the hinge shaft 33. The short plate part of the connecting plate 32 is fixed on the upper surface of the second detection plate 2 by bolts, welding, or other connection methods, thereby firmly connecting the second detection plate 2 and the connecting device 3.

[0030] Due to the adoption of the above-mentioned solution of the present utility model, the present utility model combines the first detection plate, the second detection plate, and the connecting device to simulate the toilet seat ring and the toilet water tank installed on the toilet base, thereby realizing the rapid and accurate detection of the upper surface flatness of the toilet seat ring base and the installation plane flatness of the toilet water tank base on the toilet base. Compared with the traditional detection method, it is not necessary to measure the ground flatness, nor is it necessary to flip the installation plane of the toilet base to contact the ground, avoiding the problems of complex operation and low efficiency existing in the traditional detection method.

[0031] The above-described embodiments only represent several implementation manners of the present utility model, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the concept of the present utility model, several modifications and improvements can still be made, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model patent shall be subject to the appended claims.
