[0029] 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 preferred embodiments of the present utility model and should not be considered as excluding other embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0030] Reference Figures 1-9 As shown, this application embodiment provides a smart toilet knob, including a knob housing 100, the knob housing 100 having an internal receiving cavity 101 with an opening at the bottom, and a bonding portion 102 inside the receiving cavity 101; a fixing member 200, the fixing member 200 including a fixing end 210 adapted to be fixedly connected to the toilet body 400, and a plug-in end 220 adapted to be rotatably connected to the receiving cavity 101, the fixing member 200 having a hollow interior forming an installation cavity 230; a rotating member 300, the rotating member 300 being located inside the installation cavity 230, the rotating member 300 including a rotating disk 310 and a rotating rod 320, one end of the rotating rod 320 being fixedly connected to the rotating disk 310, and the other end of the rotating rod 320 forming a spline connection with the bonding portion 102; the rotating disk 310 having a trigger portion to be adapted to trigger different switches on the toilet function circuit board 500 at different positions.

[0031] like Figure 2 , Figure 3As shown, the knob housing 100 has a hollow interior forming a receiving cavity 101 with an opening at the bottom. A bonding portion 102 is provided within the receiving cavity 101, located at the axial center of the receiving cavity 101 and extending downwards from the top of the receiving cavity 101. In some embodiments, the bonding portion 102 is integrally formed with the knob housing 100. In other embodiments, the bonding portion 102 and the knob housing 100 can be two separately manufactured components, then fixedly connected by screws, adhesive, or welding. In this embodiment, the bonding portion 102 has a D-shaped spline groove.

[0032] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the fastener 200 includes a fixed end 210 and a plug-in end 220 coaxially arranged. The fixed end 210 is adapted to be fixedly connected to the toilet body 400. In this embodiment, the fixed end 210 has a thread on its outer side, and it is threadedly connected to the toilet body 400. The plug-in end 220 is adapted to be rotatably connected to the receiving cavity 101. In this embodiment, the plug-in end 220 is connected to the knob housing 100 through a snap-fit ​​structure, such as... Figure 2 As shown, an annular protrusion is provided on the plug-in end 220, and a buckle adapted to the annular protrusion is provided on the inner wall of the receiving cavity 101. When the plug-in end 220 is connected to the knob housing 100, the buckle cooperates with the annular protrusion, ensuring that the knob housing 100 can rotate relative to the fixing member 200 while preventing the knob housing 100 from detaching from the fixing member 200 along the axial direction. In other embodiments, an annular protrusion may be formed on the inner wall of the receiving cavity 101, and a buckle may be provided on the plug-in end 220.

[0033] like Figure 2 , Figure 3As shown, the interior of the fixing member 200 is hollow, forming a mounting cavity 230 suitable for accommodating the rotating member 300. The rotating member 300 includes a rotating disk 310 and a rotating rod 320. One end of the rotating rod 320 is fixedly connected to the rotating disk 310, and the other end of the rotating rod 320 is splinedly connected to the keying part 102. In this embodiment, the upper end of the rotating rod 320 is D-shaped, and a corresponding D-shaped spline groove is formed on the keying part 102. In other embodiments, the upper end of the rotating rod 320 and the spline groove can also be non-circular shapes such as L-shaped or square, as long as they can... The rotating rod 320 can move axially relative to the keying part 102 but cannot rotate relative to it around the axial direction. The rotating disk 310 is provided with a trigger part to trigger different switches on the toilet function circuit board 500 at different positions. In some embodiments, the toilet function circuit board 500 is disposed on the toilet body 400 and has several switches corresponding to different functions (such as sterilization, heating, and cleaning). When the rotating disk 310 rotates relative to the toilet function circuit board 500 to a specific position, it will trigger one of the several switches, thereby activating the function corresponding to that switch. In this embodiment, the trigger part can be a conductor, and the corresponding switch is several contacts that can be connected by the conductor. In other embodiments, the trigger part can also be a protruding structure, and the corresponding switch is several contact switches. Of course, the trigger part and the switch can also be other combinations that allow for selective conduction.

[0034] The smart toilet knob provided in this embodiment is easy to install. First, the rotating component 300 is installed inside the fixing component 200. Then, the fixing end 210 of the fixing component 200 is installed onto the toilet body 400. Next, the knob housing 100 is fitted onto the insertion end 220 of the fixing component 200. The rotating rod 320 of the rotating component 300 then connects with the knob housing 100, thus completing the installation of the smart toilet knob. The smart toilet knob of this embodiment has a simple structure and easy assembly, greatly improving installation efficiency.

[0035] In some preferred embodiments, such as Figure 4As shown, the fixing member 200 further includes a partition plate 240, which is located between the insertion end 220 and the fixing end 210. The mounting cavity 230 is divided into an upper cavity and a lower cavity by the partition plate 240. The partition plate 240 has a through hole connecting the upper cavity and the lower cavity. The rotating disk 310 is located in the lower cavity. One end of the rotating rod 320 passes through the through hole on the partition plate 240 and is connected to the knob housing 100 in the upper cavity. The rotating member 300 also includes a limiting nut 330 sleeved on the rotating rod 320. The limiting nut 330 and the rotating disk 310 are located on opposite sides of the partition plate 240. The limiting nut 330 is adapted to press the partition plate 240 to provide a damping force that prevents the rotating member 300 from rotating relative to the fixing member 200. By setting the partition plate 240, the mounting cavity 230 is divided into an upper cavity and a lower cavity. The rotating disk 310, which has a trigger part, is placed in the lower cavity, which can play a certain protective role. By setting the partition plate 240 and the limiting nut 330, on the one hand, the rotating component 300 can be supported, making the rotating component 300 more stable when rotating. On the other hand, it can also provide damping force for the rotation of the rotating component 300, thereby preventing the rotating component 300 from rotating on its own without human operation and causing false triggering.

[0036] In some preferred embodiments, such as Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the plug-in end 220 is connected to the knob housing 100 via a snap-fit ​​structure. The top of the knob housing 100 is provided with a disassembly through hole 103, which is suitable for inserting an external tool into the knob housing 100 to operate the snap-fit ​​structure, thereby releasing the snap-fit ​​connection between the knob housing 100 and the fixing member 200, thus enabling the knob button to be separated from the fixing member 200 for quick disassembly. The top of the knob housing 100 is also provided with a decorative piece 130 suitable for concealing the disassembly through hole 103 to enhance the aesthetics of the smart toilet knob.

[0037] In some preferred embodiments, such as Figures 6-8As shown, the knob housing 100 includes a housing part 110 and an intermediate part 120. The intermediate part 120 is connected to the housing part 110 via a snap-fit ​​structure. The intermediate part 120 is hollow inside to form the receiving cavity 101. A bonding part 102 is formed in the middle of the intermediate part 120. The plug-in end 220 is connected to the intermediate part 120 via a snap-fit ​​structure. The top of the knob housing 100 is provided with a disassembly through hole 103, which is suitable for external tools to be inserted into the knob housing 100 to operate the snap-fit ​​structure between the intermediate part 120 and the housing part 110. The top of the knob housing 100 is also provided with a decorative part 130 suitable for covering the disassembly through hole 103. By dividing the knob housing 100 into two parts, housing 110 and intermediate part 120, compared to a one-piece molded housing knob, the more complex structure such as the buckle is transferred to the intermediate part 120, which can reduce the difficulty of manufacturing. In addition, housing 110 and intermediate part 120 can be made of different materials.

[0038] In some preferred embodiments, such as Figure 7 As shown, a radial limiting structure 140 is formed between the outer casing knob and the plug-in end 220. The radial limiting structure is adapted to limit the rotation angle of the knob outer casing 100 relative to the fixing member 200. By setting the radial limiting structure, the knob outer casing 100 can only rotate relative to the fixing member 200 within a limited angle range, and can more accurately stop at the corresponding angle to trigger the corresponding function.

[0039] In some preferred embodiments, the housing has a handle portion 150, within which a mounting cavity 151 is formed. A mounting hole 152 and an operating port 153 communicating with the mounting cavity 151 are respectively provided on the front and back of the handle portion 150. The front of the handle portion 150 is the side more convenient for the user to access when operating the knob. A blood glucose detector 154 is housed within the mounting cavity 151. A portion of the blood glucose detector 154 is adapted to be exposed outside the handle portion 150 through the mounting hole 152. The handle portion 150 also includes a cover 155 adapted to close the operating port 153. By providing a handle, the user can easily rotate the knob housing 100; furthermore, by providing a contact-type blood glucose detector on the handle, blood glucose monitoring functionality can be achieved. Figure 9 As shown, the assembly cavity 151 is provided with a first screw hole 156 and a second screw hole 157. One end of the blood glucose detector is fixed to the first screw hole 156 by the first screw 156, and the other end of the blood glucose detector, together with the cover 155, is fixed to the second screw hole 157 by the second screw 157. The second screw 157 enables simultaneous locking of the cover 155 and the blood glucose detector 154, simplifying the structure and improving assembly efficiency.

[0040] In other preferred embodiments, such as Figure 10 As shown, the assembly cavity 151 is provided with a first screw hole 156 and a second screw hole 157. One end of the blood glucose detector is fixed to the first screw hole 156 by the first screw 156, and the other end of the blood glucose detector is fixed to the second screw hole 157 by the second screw. The cover 155 is connected to the handle part 150 by a snap-fit ​​structure. The cover 155 is connected to the handle part 150 by the snap-fit ​​structure, which facilitates installation and disassembly.

[0041] In some preferred embodiments, a sealing ring 158 is provided between the blood glucose detector and the mounting hole 152 to prevent water from entering the handle portion 150 through the gap between the blood glucose detector and the mounting hole 152.

[0042] This application also provides a smart toilet, including the smart toilet knob as described in any of the preceding claims.

[0043] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and not to limit them; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features; and these modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
