Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of toilet bowls, in particular to a toilet sterilization device. Background Art
[0002] Existing intelligent toilets generally obtain disinfectant by electrolyzing tap water to complete the disinfection and sterilization function. However, since the disinfection effect is achieved by electrolyzing the chlorine component in tap water, and the chlorine content in tap water is very low, the disinfection effect of the obtained disinfectant after electrolysis is not ideal. The prior art will increase the chlorine content of electrolyzed water by adding salt, thereby increasing the concentration of the disinfectant. But the salt addition scheme has the following problems: (1) If solid salt is stored in the toilet and automatically added for preparing electrolyzed water when needed, there will be a problem that the solid salt gets damp and caked, which affects the control of the amount of salt added to the electrolysis device, and further affects the stability of the electrolysis concentration; (2) If solid salt is provided to users and users need to manually prepare brine, it will reduce the product experience of users; (3) Salt is used as a raw material for electrolysis and as a consumable for the product. If brine with a prepared concentration is provided to users, the cost of brine in aspects such as packaging and transportation will be higher than that of solid salt. Summary of the Utility Model
[0003] The utility model aims to solve at least one of the above technical problems in the related art to a certain extent. For this purpose, the utility model provides a toilet sterilization device.
[0004] To achieve the above object, the technical solution of the utility model is as follows:
[0005] According to the toilet sterilization device of the utility model, it includes a main body housing and a funnel. The main body housing has a brine chamber and an electrolysis chamber. The main body housing is provided with a first brine inlet and a water inlet. The first brine inlet is communicated with the brine chamber, and the water inlet is communicated with the electrolysis chamber. An electrolysis module is arranged in the electrolysis chamber. The brine chamber is communicated with the electrolysis chamber through a pipeline provided with a pump. A liquid adding hole is opened on the upper shell surface of the toilet.
