[0043] The electric leakage warning device 20 has a first terminal 21 and a second terminal 22.

[0044] The first terminal 21 is detachably connected with the metal joint 16 at one end of the toilet water inlet pipe 11 through the first conductive connecting part 30. The other end of the toilet water inlet pipe 11 is connected with the metal valve body 17, which is installed on the wall.

[0045] The second terminal 22 is detachably connected with the grounding sheet 12 of the toilet through the second conductive connecting part 40, and the grounding sheet 12 is connected with the ground wire.

[0046] The metal joint 16 and the metal valve body 17 both have conductivity. The metal valve body 17 is generally selected as an angle valve or a ball valve.

[0047] One end of the toilet water inlet pipe 11 is connected with the water tank 13 of the toilet through the metal joint 16, and the other end of the toilet water inlet pipe 11 is connected with the water supply pipe through the metal valve body 17. The water supply pipe is generally buried in the wall. When the metal valve body 17 is closed, the water in the water supply pipe cannot enter the water inlet pipe 11.

[0048] When the metal valve body 17 is opened, the water in the water supply pipe enters the toilet water inlet pipe 11 through the metal valve body 17, and the water in the toilet water inlet pipe 11 enters the water tank 13 of the toilet through the metal joint 16.​

[0049] The toilet and other electrical appliances in the family are generally connected to the ground wire. When the toilet or other electrical appliances have a leakage phenomenon, the ground wire will be electrified, and the current will flow through the ground wire, the grounding sheet, the second conductive connection part 40, the second terminal 22, the leakage warning indicator 20, the first terminal 21, the first conductive connection part 30, the metal joint 16, the water in the water inlet pipe 11, the metal valve body 17, the wall, so that the leakage warning indicator 20 emits light, realizes the warning effect, and reminds the user. The user can learn that the ground wire is electrified in time, so as to take timely measures.

[0050] Since the first terminal 21 is detachably connected to the metal joint 16 at one end of the toilet water inlet pipe 11 through the first conductive connection part 30, the first terminal 21 and the metal joint 16 are convenient to disassemble and assemble, and are convenient to maintain and replace.

[0051] Since the second terminal 22 is detachably connected to the grounding sheet 12 of the toilet through the second conductive connection part 40, the second terminal 22 and the grounding sheet 12 are convenient to disassemble and assemble, and are convenient to maintain and replace.

[0052] The leakage detection device of the embodiment is characterized in that the first terminal 21 of the leakage warning indicator 20 is detachably connected to the metal joint 16 at one end of the toilet water inlet pipe 11 through the first conductive connection part 30, the other end of the toilet water inlet pipe 11 is connected to the metal valve body 17, and the metal valve body 17 is installed on the wall; the second terminal 22 of the leakage warning indicator 20 is detachably connected to the grounding sheet 12 of the toilet through the second conductive connection part 40, and the grounding sheet 12 is connected to the ground wire. When the ground wire leaks, the current flows through the leakage warning indicator 20, the leakage warning indicator 20 emits light, reminds the user that the ground wire is electrified, so that the user can take timely measures. Moreover, the first terminal 21 of the leakage warning indicator 20 is detachably connected to the metal joint 16 through the first conductive connection part 30, so that the first terminal 21 and the metal joint 16 are convenient to disassemble and assemble; the second terminal 22 is detachably connected to the grounding sheet 12 of the toilet through the second conductive connection part 40, so that the second terminal 22 and the grounding sheet 12 are convenient to disassemble and assemble, and are convenient to maintain and replace. Therefore, the leakage detection device of the embodiment solves the technical problem that the user cannot learn that the ground wire leaks in time in the prior art, improves the safety of the user, and the leakage warning indicator is convenient to disassemble and assemble, and is convenient to maintain and replace.

[0053] The leakage detection device of the embodiment emits light if the toilet leaks. If other electrical appliances in the home are connected to the ground wire, the leakage warning indicator 20 can also light up when the other electrical appliances leak, monitors the safety of electricity use in the whole house, and this function requires that the ground wire in the home is normal.

[0054] In some embodiments of this application, in order to achieve a stable and reliable connection between the first terminal 21 and the metal connector 17, and to facilitate disassembly and assembly, the first terminal 21 is an annular terminal; the first conductive connection portion 30 includes an arc-shaped snap-fit ​​portion 31 and a conductive fastener 33, the two ends of the arc-shaped snap-fit ​​portion 31 are bent outward and extended to form an annular mounting portion 32. Both the arc-shaped snap-fit ​​portion 31 and the annular mounting portion 32 are made of conductive metal.

[0062] Since the annular mounting part 32 is annular and spiral, it not only improves the strength of the annular mounting part 32 and extends its service life, but also increases the contact area between the annular conductive fastener 33 and the annular mounting part 32, thereby enhancing the conductivity sensitivity.

[0063] The two ends of the arc-shaped snap-fit ​​part 31 are bent outward and extended around multiple times to form a ring-shaped spiral mounting part 32.

[0065] In some embodiments of the present application, the conductive fastener 33 is a metal bolt, which is sequentially threaded through the first terminal 21, the annular mounting portion 32, and then screwed with the nut 34 to achieve stable and reliable connection of the first terminal 21 and the annular mounting portion 32, and convenient disassembly and assembly.

[0066] In some embodiments of the present application, the arc-shaped clamping portion 31 is a C-shaped clamping spring, which is adapted to the outer diameter of the metal joint 16.

[0069] The conductive screw is threaded through the second terminal 22 and then screwed into the grounding sheet 12 to achieve stable and reliable connection of the second terminal 22 and the grounding sheet 12.

[0070] Through the design of the above-mentioned structure of the second terminal 22 and the second conductive connecting portion 40, not only stable and reliable connection of the second terminal 22 and the grounding sheet 12 is achieved, but also convenient disassembly and assembly, simple structure, easy implementation and low cost are achieved.

[0071] In some embodiments of the present application, the electric leakage warning indicator 20 is a neon lamp. When the ground line is electrically leaked, a voltage difference is generated between the second terminal 22 and the first terminal 21, and the neon lamp is lit.

[0072] The neon lamp has a column plug and a clamping groove type lampshade. The neon lamp has stable performance and low cost, and no flickering and scattering light phenomenon occurs after the neon lamp emits light.

[0073] In yet some embodiments of the present application, the first conductive connecting portion includes a pipe clamp and a conductive screw, and the pipe clamp has two ends each having a folded edge with a through hole. The pipe clamp is clamped on the metal joint, and the conductive screw is threaded through the first terminal and the through holes of the two folded edges to achieve detachable connection of the first terminal and the pipe clamp.
