[0002] Toilet seat dampers can reduce the vibration amplitude of mechanical structures, preventing damage to the structure due to excessive vibration stress. They also help the mechanical system quickly recover stability after being impacted. As an accessory device of the toilet, the toilet seat damper is installed above the toilet and has a certain function of isolating bacteria.

[0003] Chinese patent CN209346869U discloses a toilet seat damper. This technical solution, by adding a valve control structure, allows the connecting shaft to rotate smoothly when the side of the valve body with the through groove rotates, as there is a gap between the valve body and the stop block. When the connecting shaft rotates in the opposite direction, the resistance is high because there is no gap between the valve body and the stop block. When the damper is used with the toilet seat, the side of the valve body with the through groove rotates smoothly when the toilet seat is opened, and the connecting shaft rotates in the opposite direction when the toilet seat is closed, slowly closing under the resistance. This toilet seat damper has a simple structure and is suitable for children. However, this toilet seat damper does not have a positioning and locking function after the toilet seat is opened. After the toilet seat is opened, it is easy for it to close due to force, which is not conducive to use.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new compact, multi-functional toilet seat damper to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Summary of the Invention

[0005] This utility model provides a compact multi-functional toilet seat damper, which solves the technical problem that existing toilet seat dampers do not have a positioning and locking function after the toilet seat is opened.

Detailed Implementation

[0020] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0021] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 ,in, Figure 1 A schematic diagram of a preferred embodiment of the compact multifunctional toilet seat damper provided by this utility model; Figure 2 for Figure 1 The diagram shows a frontal sectional view of the structure. Figure 3 for Figure 1 The diagram shows the structure of the shell and the port. Figure 4 for Figure 2 A partial enlarged view of point A in the diagram. A compact multi-functional toilet seat damper includes a housing 1 with one end open and damping oil encapsulated inside. A rotating shaft 3 is provided inside the housing 1, and one end of the rotating shaft 3 extends to the outside of the housing 1 and is fixedly connected to a connecting shaft 8.

[0022] The other end of the housing 1 is fixedly connected to a receiving box 16, and the other end of the rotating shaft 3 is fixedly connected to a positioning shaft 10. The other end of the positioning shaft 10 extends rotatably into the inner cavity of the receiving box 16, and a groove 11 is provided on the side wall of the positioning shaft 10.

[0023] The interior of the groove 11 is provided with a retractable ball 14 through an elastic structure, and the inner wall of the receiving box 16 is provided with a snap-fit ​​groove 15 that is adapted to the receiving box 16.

[0024] After the connecting shaft 8 is connected to the toilet seat, when the toilet seat is opened, it can drive the rotating shaft 3 to rotate, which in turn drives the positioning shaft 10 to rotate inside the receiving box 16. When the toilet is opened to the vertical position, it drives the locking ball 14 to rotate to the position corresponding to the locking groove 15.

[0025] The elastic force of the elastic structure can drive the locking ball 14 to be embedded in the inner cavity of the locking groove 15, thereby locking and fixing the position of the positioning shaft 10 after rotation, thus ensuring the stability of the toilet seat when it is opened, increasing the functionality of the damper, preventing the toilet seat from being easily closed by force, improving the stability after opening, and facilitating daily use.

[0026] The elastic structure includes a sliding block 13 and a spring 12. The sliding block 13 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the ball 14, and the spring 12 is disposed between the inner side of the sliding block 13 and the inner wall of the groove 11.

[0027] After the positioning shaft 10 moves the groove 11, the arc of the surface of the ball 14 causes the ball 14 to contract and move. Then, through the connection of the sliding block 13, the spring 12 is squeezed to contract and deform, causing the ball 14 to disengage from the inside of the locking groove 15, thereby allowing the toilet seat to close.

[0028] A cover 6 adapted to the housing 1 is fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating shaft 3, and a first sealing element 7 is provided on the surface of the cover 6.

[0029] The cover 6 is used to seal the opening at one end of the housing 1 after the rotating shaft 3 is installed into the inner cavity of the housing 1. The first seal 7 seals the damping oil encapsulated in the inner cavity of the housing 1 to prevent leakage.

[0030] Two baffles 2 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the housing 1, and two buffer valve plates 4 adapted to the baffles 2 are fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating shaft 3. A gap is provided on one of the buffer valve plates 4, and a through groove 5 adapted to the buffer valve plate 4 with the gap is opened on the surface of the rotating shaft 3.

[0031] During the rotation of the rotating shaft 3, the damping oil is squeezed and buffered by driving the buffer valve plate 4. An oil gap and a through groove 5 are provided on the buffer valve plate 4 to reduce resistance when opening the toilet seat and improve the smoothness of opening the toilet seat.

[0032] The surface of the connecting shaft 8 is provided with a connecting groove 9, and several second seals 18 are fixedly connected to the side wall of the housing 1.

[0033] The inner wall of the housing 1 is provided with a through-hole 17 adapted to the positioning shaft 10, and the inner wall of the housing 1 is provided with a second sealing element 18 adapted to the positioning shaft 10.

[0034] The working principle of the compact, multi-functional toilet seat damper provided by this utility model is as follows:

[0035] After the connecting shaft 8 is connected to the toilet seat, when the toilet seat is opened, it drives the rotating shaft 3 to rotate, which in turn drives the positioning shaft 10 to rotate inside the receiving box 16. When the toilet is opened to the vertical position, it drives the locking ball 14 to rotate to the position corresponding to the locking groove 15. Through the elastic force of the elastic structure, the locking ball 14 can be driven to embed into the inner cavity of the locking groove 15. Then, the position after the positioning shaft 10 rotates is locked and fixed, thus ensuring the stability of the toilet seat when it is open. After the positioning shaft 10 drives the groove 11 to move, the curvature of the surface of the locking ball 14 causes the locking ball 14 to contract and move. Through the connection of the sliding block 13, the compression spring 12 is compressed and deformed, causing the locking ball 14 to disengage from the inside of the locking groove 15, thus allowing the toilet seat to close.

[0036] Compared with related technologies, the compact multifunctional toilet seat damper provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0037] This utility model provides a compact, multi-functional toilet seat damper. After being connected to the toilet seat via a connecting shaft 8, when the toilet seat is opened, it drives the rotating shaft 3 to rotate, which in turn drives the positioning shaft 10 to rotate inside the receiving box 16. When the toilet is opened to the vertical position, it drives the locking ball 14 to rotate to the position corresponding to the locking groove 15. Through the elastic force of the elastic structure, the locking ball 14 can be driven to embed into the inner cavity of the locking groove 15, thereby locking and fixing the position after the positioning shaft 10 rotates. This ensures the stability of the toilet seat when it is open, increases the functionality of the damper, prevents the toilet seat from easily closing under force, improves the stability after opening, and is beneficial for daily use.
