The shape of the mounting hole 23 is adapted to the corresponding ends of the head 11 and the rod 12.
[0042] Based on this, see Figure 3-Figure 10 This embodiment also provides a toilet testing device, comprising a support frame 40 and the aforementioned toilet testing fixture. The support frame 40 is used to support and adjust the testing fixture. The support frame 40 can be implemented using a common tripod 43 structure, which allows for adjustment in multiple dimensions. In this embodiment, the support frame 40 is provided with a rotatable clamping assembly 50, to which the bracket 20 is detachably mounted. By adjusting the clamping assembly 50 or the bracket 20, the water outlet angle can be adjusted.
[0043] The clamping assembly 50 includes a first plate 51, a second plate 52, and a locking member 53. The first plate 51 is provided with a mounting surface 54. The second plate 52 is removably fixed to the mounting surface 54 and is provided with two opposing ribs 55. The ribs 55 are perpendicular to the mounting surface 54 and form a clamping groove for clamping the bracket 20. The second fixing portion 22 of the bracket 20 is embedded in the clamping groove and is provided with two protrusions 27. The two protrusions 27 are located on either side of the mounting groove 24 and respectively abut the inner side of the clamping groove. The second fixing portion 22 and the clamping groove can be tightly fitted or locked with screws. The locking member 53 is removably fixed through the first plate 51 and the second plate 52. In the figure, the locking member 53 is passed through the bottom opening 25 of the second fixing portion 22, and the first plate 51 and the second plate 52 are correspondingly provided with holes or grooves for the locking member 53 to pass through. When the locking member 53 is loosened, the position of the second plate 52 relative to the first plate 51 can be adjusted to adjust the angle of the test fixture.
[0044] Specifically, the support frame 40 includes a main body 41 and a tripod 43. The tripod 43 is connected to the main body 41 to support the main body 41 and adjust the height of the main body 41. The clamping assembly 50 also includes a rotating portion 56. One end of the rotating portion 56 is rotatably connected to the main body 41, and the other end of the rotating portion 56 is connected to the clamping assembly 50. In the figure, the main body 41 is provided with a slot 42. A ball is provided at one end of the rotating portion 56. The ball is rotatably embedded in the slot 42, allowing the rotating portion 56 to achieve a large angle of rotation relative to the main body 41, such as vertical rotation or horizontal rotation.
[0045] Furthermore, the tripod 43 includes a connecting block 46 and three telescopic rods 44. The three telescopic rods 44 are spaced apart circumferentially along the connecting block 46, and one end of the telescopic rods 44 is rotatably connected to the connecting block 46. The main body 41 is connected to the connecting block 46. Each telescopic rod 44 is adjustable in length, thereby adjusting the height of the main body 41. The three telescopic rods 44 can be relatively extended or retracted. When extended, they can stably support the main body 41, and when retracted, they can be easily stored.
[0046] In this embodiment, the control valve 30 is realized by a solenoid valve, etc., and the urinal 10 is made of silicone or other materials. When the device of this embodiment is used for testing, the test fixture is installed on the support frame 40, see Figure 4-Figure 6 , place the support frame 40 in front of the toilet 60 (on the left side in the figure), and make sure the water outlet of the urinal 10 faces the pot surface of the toilet 60. When performing the anti-splash urine test, connect the control valve 30 to the test equipment, and control the control valve 30 to open or close the urinal 10 to spray water, simulating the user's urination and urination time. Use the test equipment to set the simulated urine pressure and flow rate to simulate various actual scenarios for verification. You can also perform the following operations:
[0047] See also Figure 7, adjust the distance between the entire device and the toilet 60, so as to simulate the standing positions of different users when using the toilet.
[0048] See also Figure 8 By adjusting the length of the telescopic rod 44 of the tripod 43, it is possible to simulate the standing positions of users of different heights when using the toilet.
[0049] See also Figure 9 By manipulating the clamping assembly 50 to rotate vertically relative to the main body 41, the urinal 10 is driven to rotate to adjust the water outlet angle, simulating various real toileting scenes.
[0050] See also Figure 10 By adjusting the horizontal rotation of the first plate 51 relative to the second plate 52, the angle of the urinal 10 in the front-to-back direction can be adjusted, or by adjusting the horizontal rotation of the clamping assembly 50 relative to the main body 41, the angle of the urinal 10 in the front-to-back direction can also be adjusted, thereby simulating the scene of urine being sprayed onto the urinal 60 pot surface at different angles.
[0051] Specifically, the urine splashing situation can be judged by placing a water-writing paper at the front end of the toilet 60 and observing the number and size of water droplets on the water-writing paper to determine the severity of the urine splashing.
[0052] The terms "first" and "second" appearing in the present invention are only for the convenience of description to distinguish different components with the same name, and do not indicate a sequence or primary and secondary relationship.
