[0035] The following is a description of the preferred embodiments of the present utility model with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are only for the purpose of illustrating and explaining the present utility model, and are not used to limit the present utility model.

[0036] Among them, the same reference numerals in the drawings all refer to the same components.

[0037] Embodiment 1

[0038] As Figures 1-12 shown, the present utility model provides a toilet cleaner with automatic liquid control and release, which is placed in the flush tank of the toilet and includes:

[0039] A liquid container 1, one end of the liquid container 1 has an opening;

[0040] A base 2, the inside of the base 2 is hollow and is installed with a counterweight block. The bottom end of the base 2 is buckled with a base cover 21, and insertion slots 22 are opened on both sides of the top end of the base 2;

[0041] A main housing 3, the main housing 3 includes arc-shaped plates 31, a sliding plate 32 and an outer decorative plate 33. The arc-shaped plates 31 are arranged oppositely, the sliding plate 32 is arranged on both sides of the arc-shaped plates 31, the bottom end of the sliding plate 32 is inserted into the inside of the insertion slot 22 and is connected to the base 2, and the outer decorative plate 33 is buckled on the outside of the sliding plate 32;

[0042] The bottle neck connecting piece 4 includes a docking plate 41, an arc-shaped side plate 42, and a sliding sleeve 43. The arc-shaped side plate 42 is arranged on the outside of the docking plate 41, and the sliding sleeve 43 is arranged on the outside of the arc-shaped side plate 42. The sliding sleeve 43 is slidably sleeved on the sliding plate 32. An internal thread groove 44 is arranged at the center of the docking plate 41, and a sharp triangular protrusion block is arranged at the top opening of the internal thread groove 44. The opening end of the liquid container 1 is threadedly connected to the internal thread groove 44. An extension pipe 45 is arranged inside the internal thread groove 44, and the bottom opening of the extension pipe 45 is inwardly converged;

[0043] The floating component 5 includes a floating piece 51, a liquid leakage partition 52, and a cavity valve 53. The liquid leakage partition 52 is arranged inside the floating piece 51. The cavity valve 53 passes through the extension pipe 45 and is docked with the liquid leakage partition 52, so that the floating component 5 is connected to the bottom of the bottle neck connecting piece 4;

[0044] The cavity valve 53 is a hollow cylindrical structure with both ends sealed. Sealing rings 54 are arranged at the top end and the bottom end of the cavity valve 53. A plurality of liquid leakage holes 55 are longitudinally opened on the surface of the cavity valve 53, and the liquid leakage holes 55 are located between the two sealing rings 54.

[0045] Furthermore, a plurality of through holes are opened on the surface of the docking plate 41 to allow the water inside the water tank to flow through when the water is replenished from bottom to top.

[0046] Furthermore, the sliding plate 32 includes a toothed plate 321 and a limiting plate 322. The limiting plates 322 are distributed on both sides of the toothed plate 321 and there is a gap between them. The sliding sleeve 43 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the limiting plate 322. The sliding sleeve 43 has a locking tooth that is engaged with the card slot of the toothed plate 321, so that the bottle neck connecting piece 4 can be adjusted in height along the toothed plate 321.

[0047] Furthermore, an anti-disengagement head is arranged at the bottom of the gap between the limiting plate 322 and the toothed plate 321. When the sliding sleeve 43 slides to the bottom and presses on the anti-disengagement head, the bottom end of the floating piece 51 does not contact the top end of the base 2, so that the liquid can flow out smoothly downward.

[0048] Furthermore, the floating piece 51 is in the shape of a semi-circular ring, hollow inside and having an opening at the bottom. The aperture of the bottom opening of the extension pipe 45 is larger than that of the cavity valve 53 and smaller than that of the sealing ring 54. When the floating piece 51 drives the cavity valve 53 to move up and down, the sealing ring 54 can block the bottom opening of the extension pipe 45.

[0049] Specifically, the liquid container 1 is filled with a cleaning liquid, and an aluminum film is sealed at the opening. A replaceable refill can be used. When in use, first push the bottle neck connector 4 upward, connect the end of the liquid container 1 with the opening to the bottle neck connector 4. During the process of screwing the liquid container 1, the sharp triangular protrusion on the internal thread groove 44 pierces the aluminum film at the opening of the liquid container 1. There is no need to tear the aluminum film separately, which will not dirty hands and is more convenient to replace.

[0050] After the liquid container 1 is docked, the liquid flows out and fills the extension pipe 45 part. The upper sealing ring 54 plays a sealing role to prevent the cleaning liquid from leaking. The state at this time is as Figure 11 shown. After the whole device is placed inside the water tank, the counterweight in the base 2 keeps it stably placed vertically. The counterweight is made of cement casting here. During the process of lowering the device, the water in the water tank pushes the floating part 51 upward, and then drives the cavity valve 53 to move upward until the lower sealing ring 54 blocks the opening of the extension pipe 45. The state at this time is as Figure 12 shown. During the process that the cavity valve 53 is located inside the extension pipe 45, the cleaning liquid fills the inner cavity of the cavity valve 53.

[0051] When the water tank is pressed to flush the water, the water in the water tank is emptied. The floating component 5 part falls under the action of gravity, and the cavity valve 53 falls from the extension pipe 45. The state evolution process is Figure 12 towards Figure 11 transformation. During this process, the cleaning liquid at the extension pipe 45 can flow downward through the liquid leakage hole 55 of the cavity valve 53 until the upper sealing ring 54 blocks the opening of the extension pipe 45 and the cleaning liquid stops dripping. This setting can effectively avoid the waste caused by the continuous overflow of the cleaning liquid when the water supply stops and the water in the water tank is emptied. Finally, when the water in the water tank is replenished, the water level gradually rises, and the floating component 5 is dragged up again. The sealing ring below the cavity valve 53 blocks the opening of the extension pipe 45 again, and the state returns to Figure 11 . The outflowing cleaning liquid is mixed with the water in the water tank, and the water flowing out during subsequent flushing has a cleaning effect.

[0052] In summary, through the design of the bottle neck connector, the user can easily dock the liquid container without having to tear the aluminum film separately, avoiding the possibility of getting hands dirty and simplifying the replacement process at the same time. The replaceable design of the liquid container enables the user to easily replace different cleaning liquids without having to replace the entire toilet cleaner, facilitating maintenance and cleaning. The design of the cavity valve and the sealing ring ensures the sealing of the cleaning liquid in the non-use state, preventing waste and spillage of the cleaning liquid. When the floating component moves with the change of the water level, the sealing ring can automatically block the opening of the extension pipe to control the flow of the cleaning liquid. The up and down movement of the floating component is linked to the change of the water level in the water tank, realizing the automatic release and stop of the cleaning liquid, ensuring that the cleaning liquid is only mixed with water when needed, and improving the use efficiency of the cleaning liquid. By precisely controlling the release of the cleaning liquid, unnecessary loss of the cleaning liquid is avoided, thus saving water resources. The counterweight inside the base keeps the toilet cleaner stably and vertically placed in the water tank, ensuring the normal operation and use safety of the toilet cleaner.

[0053] Finally, it should be noted that the above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
