Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of toilet technology, and in particular to a novel toilet seat. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, traditional toilet seat designs have flaws. When lifting the lid or raising the seat ring, users are required to directly touch the toilet seat with their hands. Since the bottom ring of the toilet seat directly contacts the toilet, it increases the risk of hands getting contaminated with urine stains, bacteria, and other unclean substances that may be present on the toilet.
[0003] Therefore, to address the aforementioned issues, some toilet seats on the market are equipped with lid lifters. However, to simplify production, most lid lifters are molded integrally with the toilet seat during injection molding, resulting in a lack of bending and folding functionality. Furthermore, they cannot be detached from the toilet seat, leading to a rudimentary design and inconvenience. This is especially problematic for larger users, as the protruding lid lifter may touch their groin area while using the toilet, diminishing the experience. Additionally, there is no flexibility in selecting or adjusting the lid lift when it is not needed.
[0004] In addition, traditional toilet seats lack structural strength, stability, and load-bearing capacity. When users sit on the toilet seat to perform activities that require a certain amount of pressure, such as soaking their feet or changing diapers for children, the toilet seat is prone to collapse, affecting the safety of use.
[0005] In view of the above, this utility model is hereby proposed. Utility Model Content

[0030] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of this utility model will be described in detail below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other implementation methods obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0031] like Figures 1-4As shown, this utility model provides a novel toilet seat, including a toilet seat assembly and a lid lifter 3. The toilet seat assembly includes a toilet seat plate 1 and a bottom ring 2. The lid lifter 3 has a foldable structure and is detachably connected to the toilet seat plate 1 and the bottom ring 2 respectively.
[0032] The lid lifter 3 of this invention is detachably connected to both the toilet seat 1 and the bottom ring 2, allowing users to easily assemble and disassemble the lid lifter 3 onto the toilet seat assembly, thus improving flexibility. Furthermore, the lid lifter 3 features a foldable structure, allowing users to adjust its position according to their needs, enhancing convenience and comfort, and providing a better user experience. For example, when using the toilet, the lid lifter 3 is folded, without affecting normal use. When it is necessary to lift the lid or the bottom ring, the lid lifter 3 can be unfolded from the folded state for easy operation without getting hands dirty.
[0033] Furthermore, the edges of the toilet seat 1, the base ring 2, and the lid lifter 3 are smoothly rounded to improve user comfort.
[0034] It should be noted that this utility model does not improve the rotating connection structure of the toilet seat 1 and the bottom ring 2, nor the connection structure between the bottom ring 2 and the toilet body; these can be achieved using existing technologies.
[0035] As an optional implementation, the lid lifter 3 includes a snap-fit section 31 and a folding section 32, with the folding section 32 rotatably connected to the snap-fit section 31; a first slot 11 is provided on the toilet seat 1, and a second slot 21 is provided on the bottom ring 2, with the first slot 11 and the second slot 21 arranged in a staggered manner, and the snap-fit section 31 engaging with the first slot 11 and the second slot 21 respectively.
[0036] Furthermore, the snap-fit section 31 has two symmetrically arranged spring arms, with the hook portions 313 of the spring arms arranged opposite to each other.
[0037] The first slot 11 and the second slot 21 are respectively set through the side plates of the toilet seat 1 and the bottom ring 2.
[0038] When it is necessary to install the lid lifter 3 onto the toilet seat 1, insert the snap-fit section 31 into the first snap-fit groove 11, and the hook part 313 of its spring arm is snapped into the first snap-fit groove 11 so that the lid lifter 3 is securely connected to the toilet seat 1.
[0039] Similarly, when it is necessary to install the lid lifter 3 onto the bottom ring 2, the snap-fit section 31 is inserted into the second snap-fit groove 21, and the hook part 313 of its spring arm is snapped into the second snap-fit groove 21 so that the lid lifter 3 is securely connected to the bottom ring 2.
[0040] Furthermore, due to the staggered arrangement of the first slot 11 and the second slot 21, the two lid lifters 3 will not interfere with each other after being installed on the toilet seat 1 and the bottom ring 2 respectively.
[0041] The inner wall of the folding section 32 is an arc surface adapted to fit the side panels of the toilet seat 1 and the bottom ring 2. When the lid lifter 3 is in the folded state, the angle between the folding section 32 and the locking section 31 is 90°, so that the folding section 32 fits against the toilet seat 1 or the side panel of the bottom ring 2. At this time, the folding section 32 abuts against the outer wall surfaces of the side panels of the toilet seat 1 and the bottom ring 2 respectively, without occupying extra space or affecting the user's normal toilet use.
[0042] As an optional implementation, the folding section 32 is connected to the rotating seat 311 of the snap-fit section 31 via a rotating shaft. The rotating seat 311 is provided with a limiting groove 312, and the folding section 32 is provided with a limiting block 321 that is adapted to the limiting groove 312.
[0043] When it is necessary to change the lid lifter 3 from the folded state to the unfolded state, the user only needs to lift the folding section 32 upwards. The folding section 32 rotates around the pivot until the limiting block 321 abuts against the limiting groove 312. At this time, the folding section 32 rotates to a horizontal or near-horizontal position.
[0044] The limiting groove 312 and the limiting block 321 effectively restrict the further rotation of the folding section 32, preventing the folding section 32 from being damaged due to excessive rotation.
[0045] As an optional implementation, it also includes a first load-bearing member, which is a plurality of the first load-bearing members and is evenly arranged along the outer periphery of the lower surface of the toilet seat 1.
[0046] The toilet seat 1 contacts the bottom ring 2 through the first load-bearing component. The first load-bearing component acts as an additional support point, dispersing the pressure applied to the toilet seat 1 and improving its load-bearing capacity and stability.
[0047] When a user sits on the toilet seat 1, especially when performing activities that require a certain amount of pressure, such as soaking feet or changing diapers for children, multiple primary load-bearing components can share the pressure together, preventing excessive force on a single point from damaging the toilet seat 1, and providing the user with stable and comfortable support.
[0048] As an optional implementation, there are three first load-bearing components, including first load-bearing component a4, first load-bearing component b5 and first load-bearing component c6, which are arranged evenly on the lower surface near the human body; a first mounting groove 12 adapted to the first load-bearing component a4, first load-bearing component b5 and first load-bearing component c6 is provided on the lower surface of the toilet seat 1.
[0049] The first load-bearing components a4, b5, and c6 are positioned on the lower surface close to the human body, providing good support and comfort when the user sits down. Furthermore, the triangular arrangement formed by the first load-bearing components a4, b5, and c6 further enhances the stability of the toilet seat 1.
[0050] The shape, size, and position of the first mounting groove 12 are adapted to the first load-bearing component a4, the first load-bearing component b5, and the first load-bearing component c6, respectively, so that the first load-bearing component a4, the first load-bearing component b5, and the first load-bearing component c6 are securely installed on the toilet seat 1.
[0051] As an optional implementation, the first load-bearing member b5 is a long strip structure that extends along the length of the toilet seat 1.
[0052] Furthermore, the contact surfaces between the first load-bearing component a4 and the first load-bearing component c6 and the bottom ring 2 are circular, which can better distribute the pressure.
[0053] The design of the first load-bearing component b5 increases the contact area with the bottom ring 2, thereby improving the load-bearing capacity and stability of the toilet seat 1.
[0054] As an optional implementation, it also includes a second load-bearing member 7, and there are multiple second load-bearing members 7, which are evenly arranged along the inner groove 22 of the bottom ring 2.
[0055] The bottom ring 2 contacts the toilet body through the second load-bearing member 7. The second load-bearing member 7 acts as an additional support point, dispersing the pressure applied to the bottom ring 2 and improving its load-bearing capacity and stability.
[0056] As an optional implementation, the number of second load-bearing members 7 is six, and the contact surface between the second load-bearing members 7 and the toilet is circular or elliptical.
[0057] Furthermore, the second load-bearing component 7 is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the inner groove 22, which can better distribute the pressure and improve the comfort of use.
[0058] The inner groove 22 of the bottom ring 2 is provided with a second mounting groove 23 that is adapted to the second load-bearing member 7. The shape, size and position of the second load-bearing member 7 are adapted to the first load-bearing member a4 and the second load-bearing member 7 so that the first load-bearing member a4 and the second load-bearing member 7 are securely mounted on the bottom ring 2.
[0059] The shape of the second load-bearing component 7 can be designed according to usage requirements.
[0060] As an optional implementation, the upper surface of the bottom ring 2 is inclined downward from the outside to the inside to form a concave support surface 24.
[0061] This design is ergonomic, with the concave support surface 24 conforming to the natural curves of the human body and providing support for the groin area. It also provides stable positioning for the buttocks, improving the user's comfort and stability during toilet use.
[0062] When using the existing non-recessed bottom ring 2, the angle of the rectum is usually maintained between 80 and 90 degrees in a normal toilet posture. This angle may put unnecessary strain on the sphincter muscles, thus affecting the smoothness of defecation.
[0063] The bottom ring 2 of this utility model adopts a concave support surface 24 design, which effectively relieves the angle pressure on the rectum when the user is using the toilet, making the defecation process smoother and faster. At the same time, it also reduces the discomfort of numbness in the legs and feet caused by prolonged sitting.
