Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of smart toilet technology, specifically to a smart toilet seat heating device. Background Technology

[0002] In today's world of rapid technological advancements and increasing consumer demand for quality of life, smart toilets have quickly integrated into people's daily lives due to their numerous advantages. As an intelligent upgrade from traditional toilets, smart toilets integrate many cutting-edge technologies, comprehensively revolutionizing the toilet experience and making convenience, comfort, and hygiene the norm. They not only include basic functions such as automatic flushing and drying but also add personalized features like massage and deodorization, thus becoming a core facility in modern home bathrooms.

[0003] Among the many functions of smart toilets, the heating element is particularly important in cold regions and during cold seasons. Providing users with warmth effectively enhances the comfort of using the toilet and greatly improves the user experience in low-temperature environments. However, current smart toilet heating devices on the market suffer from a series of significant problems.

[0004] In cold regions, due to the low ambient temperature, the large amount of heat generated by the heating device of a smart toilet during operation is easily conducted downwards to the ceramic toilet bowl, which it contacts. Ceramic material has a relatively high coefficient of thermal expansion, and after frequent and significant temperature fluctuations, it is very prone to cracking due to thermal expansion and contraction. Once the toilet cracks, it directly affects its normal use, leading to frequent leaks and greatly reducing its convenience. More seriously, a cracked toilet may cause direct personal injury to the user. Sharp cracks may scratch the user's skin, especially when standing up or sitting down; accidental contact with the cracked area can easily cause cuts and bleeding. Furthermore, continuous leakage can make the bathroom floor slippery, increasing the risk of slips and falls, especially for the elderly, children, and other people with mobility issues or weak balance; a slip could result in serious consequences such as fractures. In addition, repairing or replacing a damaged toilet undoubtedly places an additional financial burden on the user, increasing living costs from repair expenses to the cost of purchasing a new toilet.

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0026] A smart toilet seat heating device includes a seat ring 1, which comprises a flexible seat cushion 2, a main structural block 3, and a flexible support 4. The flexible seat cushion 2 is located on the side of the main structural block 3 adjacent to the toilet seat, and the flexible support 4 is located on the side of the main structural block 3 adjacent to the toilet bowl. A heating block 8 that converts electrical energy into heat energy is installed inside the main structural block 3. This heating device is located inside the seat ring to heat it. In conjunction with the smart toilet's intelligent control system, it provides different heating modes and heating and activation strategies. The seat ring 1 is in direct contact with the user's buttocks, providing a good experience. The warm seat ring prevents the buttocks from getting cold, which can significantly improve the comfort of using the toilet, especially in cold regions or cold seasons.

[0027] Furthermore, a semi-annular heating groove 7 corresponding to the toilet is provided in the main structural block 3, and a heating block 8 is fixedly installed in the semi-annular heating groove 7.

[0028] Furthermore, a heat-conducting plate fitting groove 5 is provided inside the flexible seat cushion 2, and an annular heat-conducting plate 6 is provided between the main structural block 3 and the flexible seat cushion 2. One side of the annular heat-conducting plate 6 abuts against the heating block 8, and the other side of the annular heat-conducting plate 6 is engaged in the heat-conducting plate fitting groove 5. The annular heat-conducting plate 6 is made of a material with high thermal conductivity, which can better guide heat to the upper part of the human body in contact, improve the perceived temperature, and indirectly improve the heating efficiency.

[0029] Furthermore, a heat insulation groove 9 is formed within the flexible support 4, and a heat insulation plate 10 is installed within the heat insulation groove 9. The top surface of the heat insulation plate 10 abuts against the heating block 8. The flexible support 4 is in direct contact with the toilet, and the flexible support 4 must be made of a material with a certain degree of elasticity. If a rigid material is used for the flexible support 4, it is very easy for it to break upon contact with the rigid toilet. The heat insulation plate 10 is used to block heat from being transferred to the toilet.

[0030] Furthermore, a semi-annular through hole is provided inside the heating block 8, and a heating resistance wire 11 is installed inside the through hole. Wire holes 12 are provided at both ends of the semi-annular heating groove 7 near the heating resistance wire 11. The heating resistance wire 11 converts electrical energy into heat energy. Wires are installed in the wire holes 12 to transmit electrical energy to the heating resistance wire 11. The wires are connected to the toilet's intelligent control system, which controls the output current and voltage to control different heating modes.

[0031] Furthermore, a pressure sensor 13 is installed on the main structural block 3, with the probe of the pressure sensor 13 pointing vertically upwards or downwards. The pressure sensor 13 is used to detect pressure changes, providing a basis for the intelligent control heating of the smart toilet. When the top cover is opened, the mass above the seat ring 1 decreases, and the pressure sensor 13 can detect this information and transmit it to the toilet's intelligent control system. After detecting that the top cover is open, the pressure sensor 13 will again detect whether the seat ring 1 is open. Because its probe is vertically positioned, when the seat ring 1 is opened, the pressure sensor 13 will hinge and rotate, and the probe will be horizontal, unable to detect the pressure caused by its own weight. This signal can be used to distinguish between urination and defecation. When the user sits on the seat ring 1, the pressure sensor 13 can detect a significant increase in weight. Based on the three different states of the pressure sensor 13, certain strategies can be set to cooperate with the intelligent control system to improve the intelligence of the toilet.

[0032] Structural Description:

[0033] Seat Ring 1: The main supporting structure of the intelligent toilet seat heating device, which comes into direct contact with the user's buttocks and achieves the heating function through internal components, thereby improving toilet comfort;

[0034] Flexible seat cushion 2: Installed on the side of the main structural block 3 of the seat ring 1 near the toilet seat cover, it is soft in texture, providing a comfortable contact surface for the user, and is provided with a heat-conducting plate fitting groove 5 to cooperate with the annular heat-conducting plate 6 to conduct heat.

[0035] Main structural block 3: The core supporting component of seat ring 1, with key components such as heating block 8 installed inside, and pressure sensor 13 installed, playing the roles of support, installation and intelligent control;

[0036] Flexible support 4: Located on the side of the main structural block 3 near the toilet, it is made of elastic material to support the seat ring 1 and prevent it from breaking due to rigid contact with the toilet. An insulation plate groove 9 is opened inside for installing the insulation plate 10.

[0037] Heat-conducting plate bonding groove 5: It is formed in the flexible seat cushion 2 and cooperates with the annular heat-conducting plate 6 to ensure that the annular heat-conducting plate 6 can be installed stably and conduct heat to the flexible seat cushion 2 efficiently;

[0038] Annular heat-conducting plate 6: It is set between the main structural block 3 and the flexible seat cushion 2. One side abuts against the heating block 8, and the other side is snapped into the heat-conducting plate bonding groove 5. It uses high thermal conductivity material to quickly guide heat to the flexible seat cushion 2 that is in contact with the human body above, thereby improving heating efficiency.

[0039] Semi-annular heating groove 7: It is formed inside the main structural block 3, and its shape corresponds to that of the toilet. It is used to fix the heating block 8, provide installation space for the heating block 8 and assist in heat transfer.

[0040] Heating block 8: Installed in the semi-annular heating groove 7, it is equipped with a heating resistance wire 11 inside, which can convert electrical energy into heat energy and is the core heating component of the heating device;

[0041] Insulation plate groove 9: It is opened in the flexible support 4 and is used to install the insulation plate 10, providing an installation position for the insulation plate 10 and ensuring that it effectively blocks the heat from being transferred to the toilet.

[0042] Insulation plate 10: Installed in the insulation plate groove 9, with its top surface abutting against the heating block 8, it is used to prevent heat from being conducted from the heating block 8 to the toilet, thus preventing the toilet from being damaged due to thermal expansion and contraction and saving energy;

[0043] Heating resistance wire 11: It is set in the semi-annular through hole of the heating block 8. When current passes through it, it converts electrical energy into heat energy and provides a heat source for the entire heating device.

[0044] Wire hole 12: It is opened at both ends of the semi-annular heating groove 7 near the heating resistance wire 11, and is used to pass wires through it to transmit electrical energy to the heating resistance wire 11 and realize the power transmission for heating function.

[0045] Pressure sensor 13: Installed on the main structural block 3, with the probe pointing vertically upwards or downwards, it is used to detect pressure changes, providing a basis for the intelligent control heating of the smart toilet and enabling different heating modes and function judgments.

[0046] Working Principle: The seat ring 1 mainly consists of a flexible seat cushion 2, a main structural block 3, and a flexible support 4. When the smart toilet system is activated, the wires connected to the smart toilet control system transmit electrical energy to the heating resistance wire 11 inside the heating block 8 through the wire hole 12. The heating resistance wire 11 converts electrical energy into heat energy, and the heating block 8, placed in the semi-annular heating groove 7, begins to heat up. Since the heating block 8 is located inside the main structural block 3, the heat begins to spread to the surroundings. The annular heat-conducting plate 6 plays a crucial role in heat conduction. One side of it tightly presses against the heating block 8, and the other side is snapped into the heat-conducting plate fitting groove 5 of the flexible seat cushion 2. Because the annular heat-conducting plate 6 is made of a material with high thermal conductivity, it can quickly guide the heat generated by the heating block 8 to the upper contact point with the human body, namely the flexible seat cushion 2, thereby increasing the temperature felt by the user's buttocks and indirectly improving the heating efficiency. At the same time, the heat insulation plate 10 plays a crucial role in preventing heat from being transferred to the toilet bowl. The heat insulation plate 10 is located within the heat insulation groove 9 of the flexible support 4, with its top surface abutting against the heating block 8. The flexible support 4 is in direct contact with the toilet, and therefore must be made of a material with a certain degree of elasticity to prevent breakage when in contact with a rigid toilet. The heat insulation plate 10 effectively prevents heat from being transferred from the heating block 8 to the toilet, reducing the risk of damage to the toilet due to thermal expansion and contraction, while also reducing heat waste and achieving efficient energy utilization. In terms of intelligent control, the pressure sensor 13 plays a crucial role. The pressure sensor 13, installed on the main structural block 3, has its probe pointing vertically upwards or downwards. When the top cover is opened, the mass above the seat ring 1 decreases, and the pressure sensor 13 detects this pressure change and transmits it to the toilet's intelligent control system. Subsequently, the pressure sensor 13 continues to detect whether the seat ring 1 is open. When the seat ring 1 is open, the pressure sensor 13 hinges and rotates, with its probe in a horizontal position, unable to detect pressure caused by its own weight. The intelligent control system uses this signal to determine whether the user is defecating or urinating. When the user sits on the seat ring 1, the pressure sensor 13 detects a significant increase in weight. Based on the three different states of pressure sensor 13, the intelligent control system sets corresponding heating and start-up strategies to achieve different heating modes, improving the toilet's intelligence and providing users with a personalized comfort experience. In cold regions or during cold seasons, this intelligent toilet seat heating device, through this working mechanism, effectively prevents the user's buttocks from getting cold by keeping the seat ring 1 warm, significantly improving the comfort of using the toilet.
