Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of sanitary wares, in particular to a self-releasing device for a cleaning agent. Background Art

[0002] After long-term use, dirt is likely to accumulate in a toilet bowl and needs to be regularly scrubbed and cleaned. To relieve this burden, people usually adopt the method of adding toilet cleaning blocks to the toilet cistern. After the toilet cleaning blocks are dissolved in water, a cleaning solution can be formed, and the toilet bowl is automatically cleaned every time the water is flushed to keep it hygienic. These toilet cleaning blocks need to be manually placed in the cistern, aiming to release the cleaning agent at an appropriate speed to ensure that the cleaning effect can be achieved every time the water is flushed. Different brands and models of toilet cleaning blocks have different dissolution rates, and these rate differences are usually related to the capacity of the cistern and the flushing frequency. If multiple toilet cleaning blocks are put in at one time, the cleaning agent will be released in large quantities in a short time, resulting in an overly strong initial cleaning effect but insufficient subsequent cleaning power, causing waste and being not conducive to cost saving. Too many toilet cleaning blocks may also cause the dissolved cleaning agent to accumulate in the cistern, even blocking the water outlet or pipeline of the cistern and affecting the normal use of the toilet. Therefore, users need to regularly check the dissolution situation of the toilet cleaning blocks in the toilet cistern and replace the new toilet cleaning blocks in time to avoid affecting the cleaning effect after the cleaning agent is exhausted. Due to the difference in dissolution rate and the influence after the cleaning agent is exhausted, users usually need to check and add toilet cleaning blocks about every 0.5 - 1 month.

[0003] In summary, the toilet cleaning blocks need to be regularly inspected and added manually, and the inspection and addition cycle is short, resulting in inconvenient use. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] The invention object of the utility model is to solve the problem that the existing toilet cleaning blocks have a short inspection and update cycle, and provide a self-releasing device for a cleaning agent.

[0005] To achieve the above invention object, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:

[0006] The self-releasing device for a cleaning agent includes a cleaning agent storage container and a fixing mechanism; the cleaning agent storage container is in a vertical cylinder shape and has an open bottom, the inner cavity of the container is longitudinally arranged with a gas storage space and a storage space in sequence, a lid is assembled at the open bottom thereof to limit the toilet cleaning block from detaching downward from the container, and a through hole is provided on the lid; the fixing mechanism is arranged on the cleaning agent storage container to vertically fix the container in the toilet cistern.

[0007] A gas storage space is formed between the top of the inner cavity of the container of the utility model and the upper end of the toilet cleaning block. It is vertically assembled in the toilet water tank through a fixing structure. When the cleaning agent self-release device is assembled in the water tank, a pressure difference is formed between the inside and outside of the container, so that the water in the water tank can only enter the bottom of the inner cavity of the container and come into contact with the toilet cleaning block located at the bottom. When the bottom of the toilet cleaning block is dissolved, the toilet cleaning block automatically descends under the action of gravity and always remains in contact with the water. Compared with the prior art, the cleaning agent self-release device of the utility model realizes the automatic descent of the toilet cleaning block and the continuous release of the cleaning agent, extends the cycle of checking and adding the toilet cleaning block, and improves the use convenience. Through the design of the gas storage space in the inner cavity of the container, the effective storage and drying of the toilet cleaning block are ensured, and the risks of cleaning agent waste and blocking the water outlet or pipeline of the water tank are avoided.

[0008] Furthermore, the height ratio of the gas storage space to the storage space is 1:5 to 1:12. By optimizing the height ratio of the gas storage space to the storage space, this solution not only improves the accommodation capacity of the device and allows multiple toilet cleaning blocks to be stacked longitudinally, but also ensures the pressure difference, thus achieving a more stable and convenient cleaning agent release effect.

[0009] Furthermore, a limiting part is provided at the gas storage space in the inner cavity of the container to limit the toilet cleaning block from entering the gas storage space. In this solution, the limiting part acts as a barrier to the toilet cleaning block to prevent the toilet cleaning block from occupying the position of the gas storage space after being assembled into the inner cavity of the container.

[0010] Furthermore, the limiting part is a rib provided along the side wall of the inner cavity of the container. In this solution, the rib can be integrally formed directly on the side wall of the inner cavity of the container without additional processing and assembly steps.

[0011] Furthermore, side limiting ribs are longitudinally provided on the side wall of the storage space, so that the toilet cleaning block abuts against the side wall of the container through the side limiting ribs. This solution can reduce the contact area between the inner cavity and the toilet cleaning block, thus effectively preventing the toilet cleaning block from adhering to the side wall of the storage space under the action of friction and ensuring its smooth descent.

[0012] Furthermore, there are at least 2 side limiting ribs and they are evenly distributed.

[0013] Furthermore, the fixing mechanism includes a connecting part annularly arranged on the outer periphery of the bottom of the container. In this solution, the fixing mechanism is configured on the connecting part, which is not only convenient for installation and disassembly, but also increases the weight and area of the bottom of the container, which is beneficial to keeping it stable when placed.

[0014] Furthermore, the fixing mechanism includes a suction cup, and the suction cup is assembled on the lower side of the connecting part. This solution is beneficial to quickly installing the device in the water tank and can be easily adjusted and disassembled.

[0015] Furthermore, the entire lid is configured to be trapezoidal, so that a dissolution space is formed between the lid and the side wall of the container.

[0016] Furthermore, the container further includes a counterweight mechanism, which is configured on the container in any of the following ways: (a) sleeved on the underside of the outer wall of the container; (b) embedded in the underside of the inner cavity of the container; (c) integrally formed with the lid; or (d) integrally formed with the container. In this embodiment, the counterweight mechanism is used to increase the weight of the container, making it more stable in the toilet tank and maintaining its position even under strong water flow, thereby avoiding problems such as uneven release of detergent or clogging of the water tank outlet due to the container tipping or movement.

[0025] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the orientations or positional relationships indicated by “upper”, “lower”, “bottom”, etc. are based on the orientations or positional relationships 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 referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0026] See also Figures 1 to 5As shown in the figure, the utility model discloses a self-release device for a cleaning agent, which comprises a cleaning agent storage container 1 and a fixing mechanism 3. The cleaning agent storage container 1 is in the shape of a vertical cylinder with an open bottom. The inner cavity of the container 1 is longitudinally arranged as a gas storage space 11 and a storage space 12 in sequence. A lid 2 is assembled at the open bottom to prevent the toilet cleaning block from detaching downward from the container 1. A through hole 21 is provided on the lid 2. The fixing mechanism 3 is arranged on the cleaning agent storage container 1 of the container 1 for vertically fixing the container 1 in the toilet water tank.

[0027] The height ratio of the above-mentioned gas storage space 11 to the storage space 12 is 1:5 to 1:12. By optimizing the height ratio of the gas storage space 11 to the storage space 12 in this scheme, not only the accommodation capacity of the device is improved, and multiple toilet cleaning blocks can be stacked longitudinally, but also the pressure difference is ensured, thus realizing a more stable and convenient cleaning agent release effect.

[0028] A limiting part 13 is provided in the inner cavity of the above-mentioned container 1 at the gas storage space 11 to prevent the toilet cleaning block from entering the gas storage space 11. In this scheme, the limiting part 13 plays a blocking role on the toilet cleaning block to avoid the toilet cleaning block occupying the position of the gas storage space 11 after being assembled into the inner cavity of the container 1.

[0029] The above-mentioned limiting part 13 is a rib provided along the inner cavity side wall of the container 1. In this scheme, the rib can be integrally formed directly on the inner cavity side wall of the container 1 without additional processing and assembly steps.

[0030] Longitudinal side limiting ribs 14 are provided on the side wall of the above-mentioned storage space 12 so that the toilet cleaning block abuts against the side wall of the container 1 through the side limiting ribs 14. This scheme can reduce the contact area between the inner cavity and the toilet cleaning block, thus effectively preventing the toilet cleaning block from adhering to the side wall of the storage space 12 under the action of friction and ensuring its smooth descent.

[0031] The above-mentioned side limiting ribs 14 are provided with at least 2 and are evenly distributed.

[0032] The above-mentioned fixing mechanism 3 includes a suction cup 32, and the suction cup 32 is assembled on the lower side of the connecting part 31. In this scheme, the fixing mechanism 3 is arranged on the connecting part 31, which is not only convenient for installation and disassembly, but also increases the bottom weight and area of the container 1, which is beneficial to keeping its placement stable.

[0033] The above-mentioned fixing mechanism 3 includes a suction cup 32, and the suction cup 32 is assembled on the lower side of the connecting part 31. This scheme is beneficial to quickly install the device in the water tank and can be easily adjusted and disassembled.

[0034] The above-mentioned lid 2 is connected to the container 1 through a rotary engagement structure 4. The rotary engagement structure 4 includes a clamping block 41 provided on the outer peripheral wall of the lid 2 and a clamping position 42 provided on the side wall of the container 1. At least two clamping blocks 41 are evenly distributed. The clamping position 42 is in the shape of a "7", and its lower end penetrates through the bottom of the container 1.

[0035] To avoid the problems of uneven release of the cleaner or blockage of the water outlet of the water tank caused by the container 1 tipping or moving under the impact of strong water flow, the self-release device further includes a weight mechanism (not shown in the figure). The weight mechanism is configured on the container 1 in any of the following ways:

[0036] (a) It is sleeved on the lower side of the outer wall of the container 1. For example, if the weight mechanism is designed as a weight ring, a connection step is formed between the connecting portion 31 and the container 1. The weight ring is sleeved on the outside of the container 1 and is located at the connection step. In this way, the weight of the bottom of the container 1 can be increased, and the contact area between the container 1 and the bottom wall of the water tank can also be increased.

[0037] (b) The weight mechanism is embedded in the lower side of the inner cavity of the container 1.

[0038] (c) The weight mechanism is integrally formed with the lid 2.

[0039] (d) The weight mechanism is integrally formed with the container 1. For example, if the weight mechanism is the above-mentioned connecting portion, compared with the scheme (a), the structure of this scheme is simpler.

[0040] The overall setting of the above-mentioned lid is trapezoidal, so as to form a dissolution space between the lid and the side wall of the container, so that the toilet cleaning block at the bottom of the container can be fully contacted with water to generate cleaning liquid.

[0041] A gas storage space 11 is formed between the top of the inner cavity of the container 1 of the present utility model and the upper end of the toilet cleaning block. It is vertically assembled in the toilet water tank through a fixing structure. When the cleaner self-release device is assembled in the water tank, a pressure difference is formed between the inside and the outside of the container 1, so that the water in the water tank can only enter the bottom of the inner cavity of the container 1 and contact the toilet cleaning block located at the bottom. When the bottom of the toilet cleaning block is dissolved, the toilet cleaning block automatically descends under the action of gravity so as to always be in contact with water. Compared with the prior art, the cleaner self-release device of the present utility model realizes the automatic descent of the toilet cleaning block and the continuous release of the cleaner, prolongs the period of checking and adding the toilet cleaning block, and improves the use convenience. Through the design of the gas storage space 11 in the inner cavity of the container 1, the effective storage and drying of the toilet cleaning block are ensured, and the risks of cleaner waste and blockage of the water outlet or pipeline of the water tank are avoided.
