DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0014] As Figures 2 to 4As shown in the figure, a water-saving device is used for connecting a temperature-adjustable shower system and a toilet. The temperature-adjustable shower system comprises a water temperature adjusting valve 6, two water inlets of the water temperature adjusting valve 6 are connected to a tap water pipe 5 and a hot water pipe 4 respectively, and a water outlet of the water temperature adjusting valve 6 is connected to the toilet. The water-saving device comprises: a transition water tank 1, which is fixed to the inside of a toilet water tank and is located above the highest water level of the toilet in the toilet water tank, and a water tank water outlet 10 is formed in the transition water tank 1 to inject water in the transition water tank 1 into the toilet water tank 2; a three-way valve 9, a water inlet of the three-way valve 9 is connected to the water outlet of the water temperature adjusting valve 6, and two water outlets of the three-way valve 9 are connected to a shower nozzle 7 and a water inlet pipe 8 respectively; a water inlet of the water inlet pipe 8 is connected to one of the water outlets of the three-way valve 9, and a water outlet of the water inlet pipe 8 penetrates into the toilet water tank 2 and extends into the inside of the transition water tank 1.
[0015] As shown in the figure, Figures 3 to 4 In this embodiment, the water outlet of the water inlet pipe 8 is arranged in the transition water tank 1 with the opening downward, and the water-saving device further comprises: a first water plug 111, a first lever 121 and a first floating ball 131 arranged in the transition water tank 1, the first water plug 111 is fixed to the upper part of the first lever 121, one end of the first lever 121 is hinged to the inside of one side of the transition water tank 1, and the first floating ball 131 is fixed to the other end of the first lever 121.
[0016] As shown in the figure, Figures 3 to 4 In this embodiment, the water tank water outlet 10 is formed in the bottom of the transition water tank 1, and the water-saving device further comprises: a second water plug 112, a second lever 122, a hinged rod 17 and a second floating ball 132 for swinging the second lever 122 to block the water tank water outlet 10 when the water level in the toilet water tank 2 reaches a preset second highest water level, the second lever 122 comprises a vertical rod and an inclined rod connected to the bottom end of the vertical rod, and the second water plug 112 is fixed to the top end of the vertical rod; one end of the hinged rod 17 is fixed to the bottom end of the transition water tank 1, and the middle part of the inclined rod is hinged to the other end of the hinged rod 17.
[0017] As shown in the figure, Figures 3 to 4 In this embodiment, the toilet water inlet pipe 14 is arranged in the toilet water tank 2 with the opening upward, the toilet water plug 113, the third lever 123 and the toilet floating ball 133 for swinging the third lever 123 to block the toilet water inlet pipe 14 when the water level in the toilet water tank 2 reaches a preset toilet highest water level, and the second highest water level is not higher than the toilet highest water level.
[0018] In this embodiment, as shown in the figure, Figures 3 to 4As shown, the height of the second floating ball 123 is lower than that of the toilet floating ball 133, and the second highest water level is lower than the toilet highest water level. When the water level in the toilet water tank 2 drops, the toilet floating ball 133 will drop first, and thus the toilet water plug 113 will be opened first.
[0019] In this embodiment, the toilet water tank 2 is further provided with a toilet water outlet, and the toilet water outlet is provided with a flushing water plug 16 for plugging the toilet water outlet, and the flushing water plug 16 is fixed with a flushing handle 15, and the handle part of the flushing handle 15 extends out of the toilet water tank 2 for flushing use. When flushing is needed, the flushing handle 15 is pulled, and at this time, the flushing handle will lift the flushing water plug 16 upward, and the water in the toilet water tank 2 flows out of the toilet water outlet to play a flushing role. At this time, the water level in the toilet water tank 2 drops, and the toilet floating ball 133 and the second floating ball 132 drop with the water level. When the water level drops below the second highest water level, the second lever 122 and the third lever 123 drive the toilet water plug 113 and the second water plug 112 to be in the unblocking state. At this time, water will flow out of the toilet water inlet 14 and the water tank water outlet 10 and flow into the toilet water tank 2 for the next flushing. When the water level rises to the toilet highest water level, the toilet water plug 113 and the second water plug 112 return to the blocking state. Before bathing, the temperature adjusting valve 6 is opened to the hottest position, and the three-way valve 9 is manually adjusted to make the cold water flowing out of the water inlet pipe flow into the transition water tank 1 for toilet flushing. Then, it is judged according to experience whether the cold water has been injected completely. After the injection is completed, the three-way valve 9 is adjusted again, and the water in the temperature adjusting valve 6 flows into the shower nozzle 7. During the injection process, when the water level rises to the first highest water level, the first floating ball 131 rises with the water level, drives the first lever 121 to rotate, and the first water plug 111 is in the blocking state to prevent excessive water injection. When there is no water in the transition water tank 1, the normal use of the water in the toilet water tank 2 will not be affected.
[0020] Finally, it should be noted that the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent replacements to some technical features, and any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
