Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of bathrooms, in particular to a pressure-limited quantitative energy storage type flushing device. Background Art
[0002] Because energy storage flush toilets have a limited volume, not only must they accommodate basic components like the pressure storage tank and drain piston, but they must also consider the placement of other functional components. This pressure storage device also needs to be properly positioned to coordinate with the toilet's inlet and outlet structures. Therefore, the pressure storage mechanism is designed to minimize its space usage. Within this limited space, the pressure storage mechanism must be strategically positioned within the pressure storage chamber while also ensuring sufficient water storage capacity. Therefore, the core of this technological innovation lies in reducing the space occupied by the piston pressure assembly.
[0003] In response to this core issue, the energy storage flush toilet has the following design points to be solved:
[0004] 1) The piston moves under water pressure, so there must be a piston water seal mechanism;
[0005] 2) The drainage power comes from the elastic force of the spring. The spring must have sufficient length and elasticity;
[0006] 3) Since the energy storage tank is installed horizontally above the S-bend sewage pipe of the toilet, there is contact friction between the piston and the piston cavity wall. Therefore, there is a fear that impurities in the water will settle at the bottom. When the piston moves, impurities will enter the piston sealing ring and accelerate the wear of the cylinder wall. Therefore, the water quality must be absolutely clean and no particles can enter;
[0007] 4) Since the water outlet of the energy storage tank can only be set at the side of the piston top dead center, in order not to affect the drainage flow and the function of the piston sealing ring, the shape of the piston top and the position of the piston sealing ring must be changed;
[0008] 5) If the piston structure is changed and it is desired to ensure smooth reciprocating axial motion of the piston in the pressure chamber, a reliable guide mechanism is necessary;
[0009] 6) In order to extend the service life of the piston seal, in addition to selecting wear-resistant materials, we also noticed that in case of slight leakage of the piston seal, we can ensure that the device can operate normally without constant water flow, and also added a leakage sealing function.
[0010] According to the needs of the functions and characteristics of the above products, we propose a pressure-limited quantitative energy storage flushing device, which solves the problem through structural innovation and optimization. Utility Model Content
[0011] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a pressure-limited quantitative energy storage type flushing device for solving the above-mentioned problems.
[0012] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:
[0013] A pressure-limited, quantitative, energy-storage flushing device comprises a water tank and a pressure storage assembly arranged in the water tank, the pressure storage assembly comprising a piston, a pressure storage spring and a guide rod, the guide rod being axially arranged in a water storage chamber of the water tank, a guide sleeve being provided at the center of the piston, the piston sliding up and down on the outside of the guide rod through the guide sleeve, and the piston dividing the water storage chamber into upper and lower chambers that do not circulate with each other, the pressure storage spring being axially placed in the water tank and its two ends respectively pressing against the top side of the inner wall of the water storage chamber and the piston, and a filter being provided at the water inlet port of the water tank to filter the water entering the water storage chamber.
[0014] Preferably, a water outlet is provided at the bottom end of the water storage tank and a three-way joint is provided on the water outlet, the other two end joints of the three-way joint are respectively the water inlet interface and the drainage end interface of the water storage tank, and the filter screen is provided between the piston and the water outlet.
[0015] Preferably, a water seal ring is provided on the guide sleeve, and the guide rod passes through the water seal ring.
[0016] Preferably, the pressure storage spring is a conical coil spring.
[0017] Preferably, the outer shape of the piston is set to a cylindrical trapezoidal structure, the filter screen structure is adapted to the piston structure, and the bottom end of the water storage tank is provided with a paving portion for accommodating the filter screen.
[0018] Preferably, the top surface and side surfaces of the skirt of the piston are respectively provided with an upper sealing ring and a side sealing ring.
[0019] Preferably, a first through hole communicating with the water storage cavity is formed at the top of the water storage tank.
[0020] After adopting the above technical solution, the utility model has the following advantages compared with the background technology:
[0021] 1. The utility model provides a pressure-limited quantitative energy storage flushing device, which sets a water tank in the narrow space at the rear end of a full-flat toilet. The water pressure when the water tank is filled with water is stored by a pressure storage component. The drainage pressure when the water tank is drained comes from the pressure storage component. The drainage water pressure and flow are set by the preset pressure release of the pressure storage component and the water storage volume in the water tank, which solves the problems of unstable water pressure and small flow in the water supply network, so that the toilet can meet the flushing needs.
[0022] 2. The utility model provides a pressure-limited quantitative energy storage flushing device. When water enters the water tank, the water pressure pushes the piston to rise along the guide rod. Since the guide sleeve of the piston is provided with a water seal ring, the sealing performance of the contact position between the guide sleeve and the guide rod is ensured, preventing the water flow at the front end of the water tank from entering the spring pressure chamber of the water tank through the guide sleeve.
[0023] 3. The utility model provides a pressure-limited quantitative energy storage flushing device. The pressure storage spring adopts a conical coil spring to store pressure, which prevents the pressure storage spring from tilting or deforming left and right during the compression process. The compressed pressure storage spring is stored in the cavity of the piston skirt to reduce the space required for the pressure storage spring.
[0024] 4. The utility model provides a pressure-limited quantitative energy storage flushing device. A three-way joint is provided on the water outlet of the water tank, and the other two end joints of the three-way joint are respectively provided as the water inlet interface and the drainage interface of the water tank. A filter screen is provided between the bottom end of the piston and the water outlet to filter the water entering the water tank. When water enters the water inlet, the particles in the water are blocked by the filter screen on the mesh to prevent the particles from entering the pressure storage component, affecting the operation of the pressure storage component and accelerating the wear of the piston and the cylinder wall. When the drainage end is opened for drainage, the water in the water tank is discharged through the water outlet by the thrust of the pressure storage spring. At this time, the impurities intercepted on the filter screen leave the filter screen under the push of the water flow and are discharged through the drainage end of the three-way joint. The filter screen cleaning effect is achieved without clogging.
[0025] 5. The utility model provides a pressure-limited quantitative energy storage flushing device. When the piston moves to the stop position during the water tank filling process, the sealing ring on the end face of the piston skirt and the sealing ring on the end face of the guide rod are in close contact with the annular boss on the inner wall of the water storage chamber to prevent the leakage of the piston sealing ring and the sealing ring in the guide tube.
[0026] 6. The utility model provides a pressure-limited quantitative energy storage flushing device, in which the piston is axially slidably arranged in the water storage chamber through a guide rod, which limits the moving direction of the piston and prevents the piston from deflecting.
[0027] 7. The utility model provides a pressure-limited quantitative energy storage flushing device. A first through hole connected to the water storage chamber is opened at the top of the water tank. When the piston moves, the gas in the water storage chamber is discharged. When the sealing structure of the piston leaks, the water leaked to the rear end of the water tank is discharged from this hole into the toilet bowl. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0035] Example
[0036] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the utility model discloses a pressure-limited quantitative energy storage flushing device, comprising a water tank 1 and a pressure storage component 2 arranged in the water tank 1. In this embodiment, the water tank 1 lies horizontally above the S-bend sewage pipe of the full-flat toilet, and the pressure storage component 2 is arranged in the water storage cavity 11 of the water tank 1 to store the water pressure when the water tank 1 is filled with water. The drainage pressure when the water tank 1 is drained comes from the water pressure stored in the pressure storage component 2.
[0037] The pressure storage assembly 2 includes a piston 21, a pressure storage spring 22, and a guide rod 23. The guide rod 23 is axially disposed within the water storage chamber 11. A sliding hole 215 extending vertically through the center of the piston 21 is formed. A guide sleeve is disposed within the sliding hole 215. The piston 21 slides up and down along the guide sleeve, which is sleeved on the outside of the guide rod 23. During this sliding process, the outer wall of the piston 21 tightly mates with the inner wall of the water storage chamber 11. The inner wall of the guide sleeve of the piston 21 tightly mates with the outer wall of the guide rod 23. The piston 21 divides the water storage chamber 11 into two upper and lower chambers that are not in fluid communication with each other. The pressure storage spring 22 is axially disposed within the water storage chamber 11, with its ends pressing against the inner wall of the water storage chamber 11 and the piston 21, respectively. When the piston 21 reaches its stop position, the pressure storage spring 22 is subjected to a predetermined flushing pressure. The water level within the water storage tank 1 determines the flushing volume. In this embodiment, the water storage tank 1 is configured to hold 3 liters of water.
[0038] The bottom end of the water storage tank 1 is provided with a water inlet 12 connected to the water storage chamber 11. A three-way joint 3 is provided on the water inlet 12, and the other two end joints of the three-way joint 3 are respectively the water inlet end interface 31 and the drainage end interface 32 of the water storage tank 1. A filter screen 4 is provided in the water storage chamber 11 and between the piston 21 and the water inlet 12. When water enters the water inlet end, impurities in the water are blocked on the mesh by the filter screen 4, preventing the impurities from entering the pressure storage component 2, grinding the piston 21 and the inner wall of the water storage chamber 11, affecting the operation of the piston 21, and improving the service life of the pressure storage component 2. When the drainage end is opened for drainage, the water in the water storage tank 1 is discharged through the water inlet 12 by the thrust of the pressure storage spring 22. At this time, the impurities intercepted on the filter screen 4 leave the filter screen 4 under the push of the water flow and are discharged through the drainage end of the three-way joint 3.
[0039] The pressure-storage spring 22 is a conical coil spring. The piston 21 has a cylindrical trapezoidal shape. A piston cavity 211 is defined at the top of the piston 21, and the bottom end of the pressure-storage spring 22 is connected to the bottom of the piston cavity 211. The piston 21 is axially slidable within the water storage chamber 11 via a guide rod 23, which limits the movement of the piston 21 and prevents it from shifting. The pressure-storage spring 22 uses a conical coil spring to store pressure, preventing it from tilting or deforming during compression. The compressed pressure-storage spring 22 is housed in the piston cavity 211 at the end of the piston 21. Given a fixed volume of the water tank 1, the water storage capacity of the water storage chamber 11 is increased, thereby increasing the flushing pressure.
[0040] The top of the water tank 1 is provided with a first through-hole 13 that communicates with the water storage chamber 11. When the water tank 1 is positioned horizontally at the rear end of the toilet, the first through-hole 13 is located on the lower tank wall. This through-hole 13 serves as a vent to expel air from the rear end of the water tank 1 when the water inlet piston 21 of the water tank 1 moves backward. It also serves as a drainage system to drain water from the rear end of the water tank 1 into the toilet bowl if the sealing structure of the piston 21 leaks.
[0041] The top and side surfaces of the skirt of the piston 21 are respectively provided with an upper sealing ring and a side sealing ring. The upper sealing ring includes a first sealing ring 212 and a second sealing ring 213, and the side sealing ring includes a third sealing ring 214.
[0042] A first sealing ring 212 and a second sealing ring 213 are respectively inlaid on the top surface of the piston 21's skirt, located inside and outside the opening of the piston chamber 211. A first annular boss 14 and a second annular boss 15 are respectively provided on the inner wall of the water storage chamber 11, located below the first through-hole 13, to closely engage with the first and second sealing rings 212 and 213. A third sealing ring 214 is inlaid on the outer wall of the piston 21's skirt, to closely engage with the inner wall of the water storage chamber 11. This comprehensively improves the sealing performance of the piston 21, preventing water from entering the rear end of the water storage chamber 11 during the piston 21's power accumulation activity.
[0043] The guide sleeve includes an upper guide sleeve 216 and a lower guide sleeve 217. An upper inlay groove and a lower inlay groove are respectively provided in the top opening and the bottom opening of the sliding hole 215. The upper guide sleeve 216 is inlaid in the upper inlay groove, and the lower guide sleeve 217 is inlaid in the lower inlay groove. The inner walls of the upper guide sleeve 216 and the lower guide sleeve 217 are in close contact with the outer wall of the guide rod 23. A water seal ring 218 and a sealing ring fixing sleeve 219 are inlaid in the lower inlay groove 2152 and below the lower guide sleeve 217 from top to bottom. A V-shaped groove 2181 is provided on the bottom surface of the water seal ring 218, and the V-shaped opening direction of the V-shaped groove 2181 is toward the sealing ring fixing sleeve 219. The sealing ring fixing sleeve is used to prevent the water sealing ring from falling out of the lower embedding groove. When water enters the water tank 1, the water pressure pushes the piston 21 to rise. During the rising process of the piston 21, the sealing ring fixing sleeve 219 is pushed upward, thereby pushing the V-shaped opening 2181 to expand, so that the water sealing ring 218 is in close contact with the rod wall of the guide rod 23, ensuring the sealing performance of the contact position between the sliding hole 215 and the guide rod 23, and preventing the water flow at the front end of the water tank 1 from entering the rear end of the water tank 1 through the sliding hole 215.
[0044] A baffle 231 is fixed to one end of the guide rod 23 . The guide rod 23 passes through the water tank 1 and the other end thereof is threadedly connected to a locking nut 232 , so that the guide rod 23 is detachably mounted on the water tank 1 .
[0045] The bottom of the water tank 1 is provided with a second through-hole 16, which communicates with the water storage chamber 11. A valve is installed on this second through-hole 16. When the water tank 1 is positioned horizontally at the rear end of the toilet, the second through-hole 16 is located on the upper tank wall. When water enters the water tank 1, the valve opens, allowing air at the front end of the water tank 1 to escape through the second through-hole 16, preventing air pressure from obstructing the water flow. The filter screen 4 has a trapezoidal structure that matches the piston 21. A recessed portion is provided at the bottom of the water tank 1 to accommodate the filter screen 4. The water inlet 12 is located on the wall of the water tank 1, to the side of the trapezoidal structure.
[0046] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily conceived by a person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention should be based on the scope of protection of the claims.
