[0025] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0026] like Figure 1-6As shown, the utility model provides a universal water tank inlet valve, including a valve body 1, a diaphragm 2, a plug 3, a spring 4, a float 5 and a telescopic rod 6. The valve body 1 is arranged at the bottom of the toilet water tank 7, so that the water inlet valve has a bottom water inlet structure; the plug 3 is arranged inside the valve body 1 and can be moved up and down to control the opening and closing of the water inlet valve. Specifically, the valve body 1 is provided with an inlet channel 11 and a water outlet channel. The bottom of the inlet channel 11 is connected to an inlet pipe 9 to connect natural water to the water inlet valve. The top of the inlet channel 11 is provided with an outlet 12 connected to the outlet channel. The diaphragm 2 is arranged above the outlet 12. The deformation of the diaphragm 2 can block or open the outlet 12, thereby disconnecting or connecting the inlet channel 11 and the outlet channel to realize the opening and closing of the water inlet valve.
[0027] The valve body 1 is provided with a pressure relief channel 13 above the diaphragm 2. A pressure relief hole 14 is provided at the top of the pressure relief channel 13. The plug 3 is movably arranged in the pressure relief channel 13 to open and close the pressure relief hole 14. A back pressure chamber 15 is formed between the plug 3 and the diaphragm 2. The back pressure chamber 15 is connected to the pressure relief channel 13. A spring 4 connected to the diaphragm 2 is provided in the back pressure chamber 15. When the diaphragm 2 blocks the water outlet 12, the spring 4 is in a stretched and reset state. The telescopic rod 6 is arranged vertically, and the top and bottom of the telescopic rod 6 are connected to the float 5 and the plug 3 respectively. The telescopic rod 6 is a telescopic connecting rod structure, and its length can be adjusted. When the toilet tank 7 is drained and the water level drops, the float 5 falls due to gravity, and at the same time drives the telescopic rod 6 and the plug 3 down until the plug 3 opens the pressure relief hole 14 and the back pressure chamber 15 is depressurized. The diaphragm 2 is pushed upward by the water flow to compress the spring 4 and open the water outlet 12. The water inlet channel 11 is connected with the water outlet channel, and the water flows out from the water outlet channel into the toilet tank 7, allowing the water inlet valve to enter. As the water inlet valve enters, the water level inside the toilet tank 7 rises. After the water level rises to the position of the float 5, the float 5 rises due to buoyancy, and at the same time drives the telescopic rod 6 and the plug 3 up until the plug 3 blocks the pressure relief hole 14. The pressure in the back pressure chamber 15 increases, and the spring 4 stretches and resets the diaphragm 2, causing it to block the water outlet 12, disconnecting the water inlet channel 11 from the water outlet channel, and allowing the water inlet valve to close and enter.
[0028] Specifically, a pin 41 is provided in the middle of the spring 4, and a water supply hole 21 is provided in the middle of the diaphragm 2. The pin 41 is inserted into the water supply hole 21. After the plug 3 blocks the pressure relief hole 14, the water flow of the water inlet channel 11 will flow into the back pressure chamber 15 from the water supply hole 21. The diaphragm 2 will move downward under the push of the water flow to stretch the spring 4 and block the water outlet 12.
[0029] Therefore, the floating ball 5 is connected with the valve body 1 through the vertical telescopic rod 6, the floating ball 5 is vertically connected with the valve body 1, the structure is simple, the horizontal space of the closestool water tank 7 is not occupied, and therefore the installation of other water devices in the water tank is not affected. In addition, the telescopic rod 6 can be telescopically adjusted in length, so that the height of the floating ball 5 can be adjusted. The higher the height of the floating ball 5 is, the higher the water level in the closestool water tank 7 needs to be raised to drive the floating ball 5 to float, and then the water inlet valve is closed, and vice versa. Therefore, the water inlet valve can be adapted to closestool water tanks 7 of different sizes, has good universality, meets market demand, and can also adjust the water inflow of the closestool water tank 7 under the condition that the size of the closestool water tank 7 is fixed, so as to meet different use requirements.

In addition, the top of the outer rod 62 is provided with an opening with a diameter smaller than that of the elastic ball 63, and when the inner rod 61 moves upward excessively, the elastic ball 63 will be clamped in the opening to prevent the inner rod 61 from being separated from the outer rod 62.
