Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of toilet seat technology, and in particular to a toilet seat and a smart toilet. Background Technology

[0002] With the improvement of people's living standards and changes in lifestyle, more and more families and public places are using toilets. Existing toilets generally consist of the toilet body and the seat ring. Among them, the seat ring of existing smart toilets has a heating function, so it includes an upper shell, a lower shell, and a heating wire and a heat-conducting film disposed between the upper and lower shells. The heat-conducting film is laid on the inner wall of the upper shell to evenly transfer the heat from the heating wire to the upper surface of the upper shell, thus providing warmth for the user sitting on the upper shell. The sides of the upper shell are usually uneven. Due to these uneven areas, the sides of the heat-conducting film may curl. This curling not only prevents the sides of the heat-conducting film from effectively contacting the inside of the upper shell, but also easily causes more of the heat-conducting film to detach from the inner wall of the upper shell under this curling tendency. This reduces the contact area between the heat-conducting film and the upper shell, resulting in ineffective heat transfer from the heat-conducting film to the upper shell, affecting the heating effect on the upper shell. Utility Model Content

[0003] The main purpose of this utility model is to propose a toilet seat ring that aims to solve the technical problem of how to improve the heating effect of the toilet seat ring.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the toilet seat proposed in this utility model includes:

[0005] The upper shell includes a top wall and a peripheral wall connected to the outer periphery of the top wall. The top wall is provided with a limiting strip, which is adjacent to the peripheral wall and extends along the extension direction of the peripheral wall.

[0006] The lower shell is connected to the bottom of the upper shell and together with the upper shell forms a receiving cavity;

[0007] A heating unit is disposed in the receiving cavity. The heating unit includes a heat-conducting film and a heating wire. The heat-conducting film is laid on the top wall, and the heating wire is disposed on the side of the heat-conducting film away from the top wall. The heat-conducting film is disposed on the side of the limiting strip away from the outer perimeter wall. The side of the heat-conducting film is close to the limiting strip, or the side of the heat-conducting film abuts against or is laid on the limiting strip.

[0008] Optionally, the top wall is further provided with reinforcing ribs, which are disposed between the outer wall and the limiting strip.

[0009] Optionally, one side of the reinforcing rib is connected to or abuts against the outer perimeter wall, and the other side abuts against or is connected to the limiting strip, so that the reinforcing rib transfers heat from the heat-conducting film to the outer perimeter wall.

[0010] Optionally, there may be multiple reinforcing ribs, which are spaced apart along the extension direction of the limiting strip.

[0011] Optionally, the top wall, the outer wall, and the limiting strip are integrally formed.

[0012] Optionally, the top wall is provided with an abutment post protruding towards the lower shell, and the end of the abutment post abuts against the lower shell.

[0013] Optionally, the lower shell is provided with a support boss at the position corresponding to the abutment post, and the end of the abutment post abuts against the support boss.

[0014] Optionally, the toilet seat also includes an elastic pad, which is installed on the bottom wall of the lower shell and corresponds to the position of the abutment post.

[0015] Optionally, the bottom wall of the lower shell has a mounting groove corresponding to the support boss, and the toilet seat also includes an elastic pad, which is disposed in the mounting groove and partially protrudes from the opening of the mounting groove.

[0016] This utility model also proposes an intelligent toilet, including a toilet body and a toilet seat as described above.

[0017] In the technical solution of this utility model toilet seat ring, the limiting strip can separate the heating unit from the outer wall, so that the side of the heat-conducting film can only be close to, abut against or laid on the limiting strip, and will not directly approach the outer wall. This can prevent the uneven wall surface at the outer wall from causing the side of the heat-conducting film to curl, and ensure the contact area between the heat-conducting film and the top wall of the upper shell, so as to increase the effective heating area of ​​the heating unit on the upper shell, thereby improving the heating effect on the upper shell.

[0030] With the improvement of people's living standards and changes in lifestyle, more and more families and public places are using toilets. Existing toilets generally include the toilet body and the seat ring. Among them, the seat ring of existing smart toilets has a heating function, therefore the seat ring includes an upper shell 10, a lower shell, and a heating wire and a heat-conducting film disposed between the upper shell 10 and the lower shell. The heat-conducting film is laid on the inner wall surface of the upper shell 10 to evenly transfer the heat from the heating wire to the upper surface of the upper shell 10, thereby providing warmth to the user sitting on the upper shell 10. The sides of the upper shell 10 of the seat ring are usually uneven. The sides of the heat-conducting film will curl due to these unevennesses. This curling not only prevents the sides of the heat-conducting film from effectively contacting the inside of the upper shell 10 of the seat ring, but also makes it easy for more parts of the heat-conducting film to fall off the inner wall of the upper shell 10 under this curling trend. This reduces the contact area between the heat-conducting film and the upper shell 10 of the seat ring, resulting in the heat of the heat-conducting film not being effectively transferred to the upper shell 10 of the seat ring, thus affecting the heating effect of the upper shell 10 of the seat ring.

[0031] This utility model proposes a toilet seat ring, aiming to solve the technical problem of how to improve the heating effect of the toilet seat ring.

[0032] In the embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the toilet seat includes: an upper shell 10, which includes a top wall 11 and a peripheral wall 12 connected to the outer periphery of the top wall 11. The top wall 11 is provided with a limiting strip 13, which is adjacent to the peripheral wall 12 and extends along the extending direction of the peripheral wall 12; a lower shell 20, which is connected to the bottom of the upper shell 10 and forms a receiving cavity 21 with the upper shell 10; and a heating unit, which is disposed in the receiving cavity 21. The heating unit includes a heat-conducting film and a heating wire. The heat-conducting film is laid on the top wall 11, and the heating wire is disposed on the side of the heat-conducting film away from the top wall 11. The heat-conducting film is disposed on the side of the limiting strip 13 away from the peripheral wall 12, and the side of the heat-conducting film is close to the limiting strip 13, or the side of the heat-conducting film abuts against or is laid on the limiting strip 13.

[0033] In this embodiment, the toilet seat is arranged in a ring shape, with an outer ring that is U-shaped and an inner ring that is figure-eight or gourd-shaped. The toilet seat is formed by splicing an upper shell 10 and a lower shell 20. When the toilet seat is in use, the lower shell 20 abuts against the toilet body, and the upper shell 10 is provided for the user to sit on when using the toilet. When the user sits on the upper shell 10, the user's legs and buttocks will directly contact the upper shell 10. The heating unit can heat the upper shell 10 to increase its temperature and prevent the user from experiencing a cold touch when using the toilet in a cold environment, thereby improving the user experience. The heating wire is an electric heating wire that can convert electrical energy into heat energy. The contact area of ​​the heating wire is relatively small, and the heat is relatively concentrated. Therefore, it is necessary to first transfer the heat to the heat-conducting film, and then transfer the heat to the upper shell 10 in a large area and evenly through the heat-conducting film to increase the heating area of ​​the upper shell 10 and improve the heating effect.

[0034] The thermally conductive film can be laid on the top wall 11 by adhesive bonding. When laying the thermally conductive film, the limiting strip 13 can serve as the side boundary limit of the thermally conductive film. That is, the side edge of the thermally conductive film can be close to or abut against the limiting strip 13. Of course, in other embodiments, the side edge of the thermally conductive film can also be attached to the side wall of the limiting strip 13. The limiting strip 13 can separate the heating unit from the outer wall 12, so that the side edge of the thermally conductive film can only be close to, abut against or laid on the limiting strip 13, and will not directly approach the outer wall 12. This can prevent the uneven wall surface at the outer wall 12 from causing the side edge of the thermally conductive film to curl, ensuring the contact area between the thermally conductive film and the top wall 11 of the upper shell 10, thereby increasing the effective heating area of ​​the heating unit on the upper shell 10 and improving the heating effect on the upper shell 10.

[0035] For example, such as Figure 2 As shown, the top wall 11 is also provided with a reinforcing rib 14, which is located between the outer wall 12 and the limiting strip 13. The pressure on the upper shell 10 is mainly transmitted to the lower shell 20 through the outer wall 12. Therefore, the stress at the outer wall 12 is relatively concentrated, and it is easy to be damaged if the structural strength is insufficient. The reinforcing rib 14 can improve the structural strength of the upper shell 10 at the outer wall 12, so as to prevent the outer wall 12 from being easily damaged, thereby extending the service life of the toilet seat.

[0036] The number of reinforcing ribs 14 can be one, two or more.

[0037] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, there are multiple reinforcing ribs 14, which are spaced apart along the extension direction of the limiting strip 13. This increases the structural reinforcement points of the outer wall 12, further improving the structural strength of the upper shell 10 at the outer wall 12.

[0038] In practical applications, such as Figure 2As shown, one side of the reinforcing rib 14 connects to or abuts against the outer wall 12, and the other side abuts against or connects to the limiting strip 13, so that the reinforcing rib 14 transfers heat from the heat-conducting film to the outer wall 12. The limiting strip 13 and the reinforcing rib 14 can transfer heat from the heat-conducting film to the outer wall 12, thereby increasing the heating range of the upper shell 10 and preventing the top wall 11 from feeling warm while the outer wall 12 feels cold when the user sits on the upper shell 10, thus further improving the heating effect of the upper shell 10 and improving the user experience.

[0039] Specifically, the top wall 11, the outer wall 12, and the limiting strip 13 are integrally formed, for example, by injection molding. This simplifies the forming and connection of the top wall 11, the outer wall 12, and the limiting strip 13, and also improves the connection strength of the top wall 11, the outer wall 12, and the limiting strip 13, thereby improving the overall structural strength of the upper shell 10.

[0040] For example, such as Figures 2 to 5 As shown, the top wall 11 has a protruding abutment post 15 facing the lower shell 20, and the end of the abutment post 15 abuts against the lower shell 20. The abutment post 15 is located in the middle area between the inner and outer circumferences of the upper shell 10. When the user sits on the upper shell 10, the abutment post 15 can transfer part of the force borne by the upper shell 10 to the lower shell 20 through the abutment post 15, thereby preventing the middle area of ​​the upper shell 10 from being easily damaged or deformed due to insufficient support when subjected to pressure, thus improving the structural stability of the toilet seat.

[0041] Specifically, the lower shell 20 is provided with a support boss 22 at the position corresponding to the abutment post 15, and the end of the abutment post 15 abuts against the support boss 22. The support boss 22 can enhance the structural strength of the abutment area between the lower shell 20 and the abutment post 15, thereby preventing the lower shell 20 from being easily damaged or deformed under the pressure from the abutment post 15, thus improving the structural stability of the toilet seat.

[0042] In practical applications, such as Figures 3 to 5As shown, the toilet seat also includes an elastic pad 30, which is installed on the bottom wall of the lower shell 20 and corresponds to the position of the abutment post 15. The elastic pad 30 can specifically be a silicone pad. When a user sits on the toilet seat, an impact force is generated, which in turn causes the toilet seat to impact the toilet body. The elastic pad 30 can buffer the impact force transmitted from the toilet seat to the toilet body, preventing the lower shell 20 from directly impacting the toilet body, thereby reducing the impact noise between the lower shell 20 and the toilet body, and preventing the lower shell 20 from easily being damaged by impacting the toilet body with a large force. Furthermore, the elastic pad 30 abutting against the toilet body can also prevent gaps from forming between the toilet seat and the toilet body, which could cause instability or wobbling of the toilet seat, thus improving the stability of the toilet seat during use and enhancing the user experience.

[0043] In conjunction with the above-described embodiment of the supporting boss 22, as follows: Figure 5 As shown, the bottom wall of the lower shell 20 has a mounting groove 23 corresponding to the support boss 22. The toilet seat also includes an elastic pad 30, which is disposed in the mounting groove 23, with a portion of the elastic pad 30 protruding from the opening of the mounting groove 23. The mounting groove 23 increases the mounting area of ​​the elastic pad 30 on the lower shell 20, thereby improving the installation stability of the elastic pad 30 on the lower shell 20. The fact that the elastic pad 30 protrudes from the opening of the mounting groove 23 ensures that the elastic pad can effectively contact the toilet body, thus guaranteeing the effectiveness of the elastic pad 30.

[0044] This utility model also proposes a smart toilet, which includes a toilet body and a toilet seat. The specific structure of the toilet seat is as described in the above embodiments. Since this smart toilet adopts all the technical solutions of all the above embodiments, it has at least all the beneficial effects brought about by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be described in detail here.

[0045] The above description is only an optional embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. All equivalent structural transformations made under the inventive concept of the present utility model using the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
