Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a self-generating hydraulic control component of an intelligent toilet. Background Art

[0002] As the number of functional components inside existing smart toilets increases, the original smart toilets with water tanks have a compressed internal space, and the water storage method of the water tanks makes the interior relatively humid, which will reduce the life of electronic components and increase the risk of short circuits. More and more smart toilets have adopted a water tankless design, which not only saves space, but also reduces the moisture problem caused by water storage. The water tankless design usually supplies water by directly connecting to the water pipe, thus avoiding the problems that may be caused by traditional water tanks.

[0003] Existing smart toilets are equipped with a main control board to control some functional components in the smart toilet, and the flushing function is realized by electric drive, so the electric drive needs to be powered by AC power or battery power. The AC power connection method requires external wires to affect the appearance of the smart toilet, and the battery power supply method requires regular replacement of batteries, which is inconvenient to use. Therefore, a smart toilet is required to have a self-generating hydraulic control component inside to power the electric drive to control the internal liquid circuit. Summary of the invention

[0004] The problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide a self-generating hydraulic control component of an intelligent toilet, so as to solve the problems that the external wires of the existing intelligent toilet are unsightly and the dry battery power supply is inconvenient to use.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by the utility model to solve the above-mentioned problem is: a self-generating hydraulic control component of an intelligent toilet, including a generator seat, a generator arranged on the generator seat and a power storage box electrically connected to the generator; a liquid inlet pipe and a liquid control structure are arranged inside the generator seat, one end of the liquid inlet pipe is connected to a water source, and a turbine with an axial direction parallel to the water flow is arranged inside it, and the other end is connected to a liquid separation chamber and a liquid outlet pipe in sequence. When water flows in the pipeline structure, the water flow drives the turbine to rotate to drive the generator to generate electricity and transmit it to the power storage box. The power storage box is electrically connected to the liquid control structure to provide electricity to the liquid control structure, so that the liquid control structure can close or conduct the liquid outlet pipe.

[0006] Compared with the prior art, the turbine is driven to rotate by water flow to drive the generator to generate electricity and transmit it to the power storage box. The power storage box is electrically connected to the liquid control structure to provide electricity to the liquid control structure, so that the liquid control structure can close or conduct the liquid outlet pipe. A liquid inlet pipe and a liquid control structure are arranged inside the generator seat. One end of the liquid inlet pipe is connected to the water source, and a turbine is arranged inside. The axial direction of the turbine is parallel to the direction of the water flow. When the water flows through the liquid inlet pipe, the water flow will drive the turbine to rotate. The rotation of the turbine drives the generator to operate, and the generator converts mechanical energy into electrical energy. The generated electrical energy is transmitted to the power storage box through wires for storage. The power storage box stores the electrical energy generated by the generator and supplies electricity to the liquid control structure. The liquid control structure controls the opening and closing of the liquid outlet pipe according to the power signal, thereby realizing the control of the liquid (i.e. closing or conducting the liquid outlet pipe). This self-generating design saves the trouble of external wires required for traditional smart toilets, making the toilet more beautiful. At the same time, it uses water flow to generate electricity, avoids the use of dry batteries, solves the problem of inconvenience in replacing batteries, reduces the consumption of dry batteries, and helps environmental protection.

[0007] Preferably, the liquid control structure includes a movable groove and a driving mechanism electrically connected to the power storage box, a blocking cover is slidably connected in the movable groove, one end of the blocking cover is enclosed with the movable groove to form a cavity, the cavity has an exhaust pipe, the output end of the driving mechanism can close or conduct the exhaust pipe, when the output end of the driving mechanism abuts and closes the exhaust pipe, a closed space is formed in the cavity, the gas in the cavity makes one end face of the blocking cover abut against the end face of the liquid inlet of the liquid outlet pipe to separate the liquid outlet pipe from the liquid separation chamber; when the output end of the driving mechanism is connected to the exhaust pipe, the cavity can discharge gas, so that the blocking cover slides in the movable groove when the output end of the driving mechanism closes the exhaust pipe, a closed space is formed in the cavity. Due to the closed gas pressure, one end face of the blocking cover will abut against the end face of the liquid inlet of the liquid outlet pipe, thereby separating the liquid outlet pipe from the liquid separation chamber and preventing the liquid from flowing out. When the output end of the driving mechanism conducts the exhaust pipe, the gas in the cavity will be discharged. As the gas is discharged, the blocking cover will slide in the movable groove and move to the open position, so that the liquid outlet pipe is connected with the liquid separation chamber, allowing the liquid to flow out.

[0008] Preferably, the exhaust duct includes a first exhaust duct cavity communicating with the cavity and a second exhaust duct communicating with the first exhaust duct cavity. The output end of the driving mechanism is disposed in the first exhaust duct cavity, and the second exhaust duct communicates with the liquid outlet duct. When the output end of the driving mechanism closes the air inlet end of the second exhaust duct, the first exhaust duct cavity is separated from the second exhaust duct, and the first exhaust duct cavity and the cavity form a sealed space. When the output end of the driving mechanism disengages from the air inlet end of the second exhaust duct, the cavity communicates with the first exhaust duct cavity, the second exhaust duct, and the liquid outlet duct in sequence. By the impact of water flow on the plugging cover, the cavity is compressed and the internal air is discharged from the cavity through the first exhaust duct cavity and the second exhaust duct, reducing the internal gas of the cavity, which is beneficial to maintaining the position of the plugging cover.

[0009] Preferably, an elastic member is installed in the cavity. The elastic member drives the other end of the plugging cover to press towards the liquid outlet duct, and the elastic member is used for the reset of the plugging cover.

[0010] Preferably, a pulse valve for changing the cross-sectional area in the channel is provided on the liquid inlet duct, so as to adjust the magnitude of the water flow rate.

[0011] Preferably, the liquid inlet duct includes a duct interface communicating with the liquid distribution cavity and a deformable flexible duct. The duct interface is connected to the pulse valve through the flexible duct, and the pulse valve is connected to the water supply pipe. The flexible duct has good flexibility and adaptability, and can be bent and adjusted during the installation process to adapt to different spaces and layouts.

[0012] Preferably, the inner wall of the liquid outlet end of the flexible duct is sleeved on the outer wall of the liquid inlet end of the duct interface. A downwardly concave spiral tooth is provided on the outer wall of the liquid inlet end of the duct interface. The inner wall diameter of the flexible duct is smaller than the outer wall diameter of the duct interface. The existence of the spiral tooth provides an additional mechanical fixing force, enabling the flexible duct to better bite on the duct interface during connection and enhancing the stability of the connection.

One end of the liquid inlet pipe 1.1 is connected to a water source, and a turbine 1.2 is provided inside. The other end is sequentially communicated with a liquid separation cavity 1.4 and a liquid outlet pipe 1.5. When water flows through the pipe, the turbine 1.2 rotates to drive the generator 2 to generate electricity, and the electric energy is transmitted to the storage box 3, and the storage box 3 provides power for the liquid control structure 1.3.

An elastic member 1.3.6 (the elastic member 1.3.6 is a spring) is installed in the cavity 1.3.4, and an exhaust pipe 1.3.5 is provided. The driving mechanism 1.3.2 controls the opening and closing of the exhaust pipe 1.3.5. When the output end of the driving mechanism 1.3.2 closes the exhaust pipe 1.3.5, the gas in the cavity 1.3.4 pushes the plugging cover 1.3.3 to seal the liquid outlet pipe 1.5. When the output end of the driving mechanism 1.3.2 conducts the exhaust pipe 1.3.5, the gas is discharged, enabling the plugging cover 1.3.3 to slide in the movable groove 1.3.1. At the same time, the elastic member 1.3.6 presses the plugging cover 1.3.3 against the end face of the liquid outlet pipe 1.5. Under the impact of water flow, the closing cover can overcome the elastic force of the elastic member 1.3.6 to conduct the liquid outlet pipe 1.5 and the liquid separation cavity 1.4.

The output end of the driving mechanism 1.3.2 is arranged in the first exhaust pipe cavity 1.3.51. The second exhaust pipe 1.3.52 is communicated with the liquid outlet pipe 1.5. When the output end of the driving mechanism 1.3.2 closes the intake end of the second exhaust pipe 1.3.52, the first exhaust pipe cavity 1.3.51 is separated from the second exhaust pipe 1.3.52, and the first exhaust pipe cavity 1.3.51 and the cavity 1.3.4 form a sealed space. When the output end of the driving mechanism 1.3.2 disengages from the intake end of the second exhaust pipe 1.3.52, the cavity 1.3.4 is sequentially communicated with the first exhaust pipe cavity 1.3.51, the second exhaust pipe 1.3.52, and the liquid outlet pipe 1.5. By the impact of water flow on the plugging cover 1.3.3, the cavity 1.3.4 is compressed, and the internal air is discharged from the liquid outlet pipe 1.5 through the first exhaust pipe cavity 1.3.51 and the second exhaust pipe 1.3.52, reducing the internal gas of the cavity 1.3.4, which is beneficial to maintaining the position of the plugging cover 1.3.3.

The inner wall diameter of the flexible pipeline 1.1.3 is smaller than the outer wall diameter of the pipeline interface 1.1.2, and it is sleeved on the outer wall of the liquid inlet end of the pipeline interface 1.1.2. Spiral teeth are recessed downward on the outer wall of the pipeline interface 1.1.2, enhancing the connection stability and sealing performance.
