[0043] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0044] See Figure 1A smart cover with a sealing structure includes a seat ring, which comprises an upper shell 100 and a lower shell 200. The upper and lower shells together form an inner cavity, and at least one isolation component 300 is disposed within the inner cavity. The isolation component 300 isolates the inner cavity into at least a first inner cavity 400 and a second inner cavity 500. The isolation component 300, disposed within the inner cavity of the seat ring, rationally divides the internal space into the first inner cavity 400 and the second inner cavity 500, providing a basis for the subsequent placement of components with different functions in the first and second inner cavities, avoiding mutual interference between components with different functions, and improving the rationality and stability of the overall structure.

[0045] In this embodiment, the water pipes are disposed in the first inner cavity 400, and the electronic components are disposed in the second inner cavity 500, thus achieving effective isolation between the water system and the electronic components. Figure 2 As shown, the isolation component 300 divides the inner cavity into a water circuit functional area A and an electrical heating area B, thereby preventing damage to electronic components from potential water leakage during operation and improving product safety and reliability. Simultaneously, this partitioning allows for a rational arrangement of water circuit components and electronic components within a limited space, fully utilizing the space inside the seat ring and increasing product integration. The electronic components may include at least one of the following: seat ring heating element, seating sensor, temperature sensor, wireless communication module, etc., enabling the smart seat to possess multiple intelligent functions.

[0046] The rear end of the seat ring is provided with shaft holes 800 on both sides for connecting the rotating shaft. The first inner cavity 400 is located on one side of the seat ring and is connected to the shaft hole 800 on one side. The second inner cavity 500 is arranged around the circumference of the seat ring and is connected to the shaft hole 800 on the other side, so that water pipes and electronic circuits can pass through the shaft holes into the first inner cavity 400 and the second inner cavity 500.

[0047] See Figure 3 and Figure 4 In one embodiment, the lower shell 200 is provided with a groove 210, and a sealing element 610 is provided in the groove 210. When the upper shell 100 and the lower shell 200 are assembled, the sealing element 610 abuts against the upper shell 100, forming a sealed isolation between the first inner cavity 100 and the second inner cavity 200. This effectively prevents moisture, dust, and other substances in the first inner cavity 400 from entering the second inner cavity 500, avoiding damage to the electronic components inside the second inner cavity, and improving the waterproof and moisture-proof performance and service life of the product. At the same time, because the sealing element 610 fits tightly with the upper shell 100 and the lower shell 200, the smart cover can withstand certain external impacts and vibrations during use, ensuring the reliability and durability of the product. Of course, the upper shell can also be provided with a groove, and a sealing element can be provided in the groove. When the upper shell and the lower shell are assembled, the sealing element abuts against the lower shell, thereby achieving a seal.

[0048] See Figure 5 and Figure 6 In another embodiment, the lower shell 200 has a groove 220, within which a sealing element 620 is disposed. The upper shell 100 has a raised rib 110. The sealing element 620 is laid along the length of the groove 220 at the bottom of the groove. When the upper shell 100 and the lower shell 200 are assembled, the raised rib 110 presses against the sealing element 620, allowing the sealing element to fit more tightly within the groove 220, thereby further improving the sealing effect and ensuring effective isolation between the first inner cavity 400 and the second inner cavity 500. Of course, the groove can also be provided on the upper shell and the raised rib on the lower shell, with the same principle.

[0049] See Figure 7 In other embodiments, the lower shell 200 is provided with a groove 230, and an elastic layer 630 is provided around the sidewall of the groove 230. The upper shell 100 is provided with a rib 120. When the upper shell 100 and the lower shell 200 are assembled, the rib 120 abuts against the elastic layer 630. The elastic properties of the elastic layer 630 can adapt to certain assembly errors and deformations, ensuring a tight fit between the rib 120 and the groove 230, while improving the adaptability and reliability of the sealing structure. Similarly, the groove can also be provided on the upper shell, and the rib can be provided on the lower shell.

[0050] See Figure 8 The smart toilet seat also includes a control valve 730 disposed in the first inner cavity 400. The inlet and outlet of the control valve 730 are respectively connected to a water supply pipe 720 and a water outlet pipe 740. The water supply pipe 720 and the water outlet pipe 740 are respectively passed through the shaft hole 800 to the inner cavity of the toilet base, realizing the effective connection between the smart toilet seat and the toilet base and the smooth flow of water, improving the overall performance and ease of use of the product.

[0051] The base cavity contains a water supply valve 710 and a water spray body (not shown). A water supply pipe 720 is connected to the water supply valve 710, and a water outlet pipe 740 is connected to the water spray body. The water supply valve 710 is used to supply water, and the water spray body is used to wash the person. The connection relationship between the water source, water supply valve, water supply pipe, control valve, water outlet pipe, and water spray body constitutes a complete cleaning system, organically combining the water system of the smart toilet seat with the water supply system of the toilet base, achieving coordinated operation between the various components.

[0052] This embodiment also provides a smart toilet, including the aforementioned smart seat with a sealing structure.
