[0004] To address the above problems, this utility model document proposes an odor-proof toilet. Utility Model Content

[0005] This utility model provides an odor-proof toilet, which solves the problem of existing technology where, after the toilet body is flipped over, its drain pipe aligns with the drain outlet at the bottom of the mounting base. This structure allows odors from the building's main sewage pipe to easily flow through the drain outlet and then into the room via the drain pipe on the toilet body, causing unpleasant odors to permeate the room, seriously affecting indoor air quality and providing a very poor experience for users.

[0006] This utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0007] An odor-proof toilet includes:

[0008] The L-shaped mounting base has a single flip-top toilet body mounted on two supporting slide rails. The flip-top toilet body contains a bowl, and a bent drain pipe is integrally formed at the outlet of the bowl. The bent drain pipe contains a tipping assembly to prevent odors from entering the building's main sewage pipe.

[0009] In one possible design, a matching ring-shaped seat is rotatably mounted on the top of the flip-top toilet body.

[0010] In one possible design, a water outlet is provided on one side of the water storage tank at the top of the L-shaped mounting base, and the water outlet is aligned with the top opening of the flip-top toilet body after it has been flipped over.

[0014] It should be understood that the above general description and the following detailed description are merely exemplary and do not limit the present invention.

[0015] The working principle and usage process of this technical solution are as follows:

[0016] When the toilet needs to be used, the drive mechanism is activated. The motor powers the transmission gears, which in turn mesh with the rack and pinion, causing the toilet body to flip along the rack's orientation until the toilet bowl opening faces upwards. The user can then sit on the circular seat to use the toilet. After use, the toilet body is flipped again so that the top opening aligns with the water outlet on the side of the L-shaped mounting base's water tank, and the bent drain pipe aligns with the drain outlet at the bottom of the L-shaped mounting base. When flushing, water from the water tank flows out... Water flows out of the outlet and into the bowl of the flip-top toilet, flushing away waste. The waste then enters the curved drain pipe with the water flow. Under the influence of gravity, the waste pushes the curved tipper to rotate around the rotating rod, opening the drain channel and allowing the waste to be discharged into the building's main sewage pipe. After the waste is discharged, a counterweight is fixed in the center of the inner wall of the curved tipper, which helps it return to its initial equilibrium position, closing the curved drain pipe and reducing the amount of odor from the building's main sewage pipe entering the room.

[0017] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] This invention features a tipping bucket assembly installed inside a bent sewage pipe. By utilizing the combination of the arc-shaped tipping bucket and a counterweight, the sewage channel is closed when sewage is not being discharged.

[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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "opening", "upper", "middle", "length", "inner", etc., which indicate orientation or positional relationship, are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the components or elements referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.

[0026] To keep the following description of the embodiments of this utility model clear and concise, detailed descriptions of known functions and known components are omitted.

[0027] In one embodiment:

[0028] Please refer to Figure 1-4 A toilet, comprising:

[0029] L-shaped mounting base 1 serves as the support and mounting base for the entire toilet. The same flip-top toilet body 2 is installed on its two support slide rails. The two sides of the flip-top toilet body 2 are rotatably connected to the slide rails through bearing assemblies. The flip-top toilet body 2 can flip along the support slide rails from 0 to 90 degrees. A matching ring-shaped seat 3 is installed on the top edge of the flip-top toilet body 2 through a damping pivot. The seat 3 can be embedded with electric heating wires and covered with antibacterial PU material to improve the comfort and antibacterial properties of the ring-shaped seat 3.

[0030] The L-shaped mounting base 1 has a water storage tank on its top, and a water outlet 4 on one side of the water storage tank. The water storage tank on the top of the L-shaped mounting base 1 is connected to a water supply pipe. An inlet valve is installed inside the water storage tank to control the water intake. When the water level in the storage tank is lower than a set value, the inlet valve automatically opens, allowing external water to enter the storage tank and providing a water reserve for flushing operations. A drain valve is also installed inside the water storage tank to control the drainage. When the flushing button is pressed, the drain valve opens, and water in the storage tank flows through… The water outlet 4 quickly flows into the flip-top toilet body 2 to achieve flushing. If the water outlet 4 is located at a high position, the water inlet valve inside the water storage tank can be replaced with a water pump. The water pump flushes the water inside the water storage tank through the water outlet 4 and into the bowl 6 of the flip-top toilet body 2. When the flip-top toilet body 2 is flipped to the storage position, the water outlet 4 is aligned with the top opening of the flip-top toilet body 2. In this way, when flushing, the water in the water storage tank can flow smoothly out of the water outlet 4 and enter the flip-top toilet body 2 for flushing.

[0031] The bottom of the L-shaped mounting base 1 is provided with a drain outlet 5 for connecting to the main sewage pipe of the building. The inside of the flip-top toilet body 2 is provided with a bowl 6 for holding the user's excrement. A bent drain pipe 7 is integrally formed at the outlet of the bowl 6. The drain outlet 5 is aligned with the opening of the bent drain pipe 7 after flipping, ensuring that the waste can be smoothly discharged into the main sewage pipe of the building.

[0032] The bent sewage pipe 7 is equipped with a tipping bucket assembly, which is a key component to prevent odors from the building's main sewage pipe from entering the room. The tipping bucket assembly includes an arc-shaped tipping bucket 8, on the outer wall of which two rotating rods 9 are symmetrically fixed. A groove 10 is provided on the inner wall of the bent sewage pipe 7 at the position corresponding to the rotating rods 9. The rotating rods 9 are rotatably connected to the groove 10 through bearings. This connection method allows the arc-shaped tipping bucket 8 to rotate freely inside the bent sewage pipe 7.

[0033] A counterweight 11 is fixedly installed in the center of the inner wall of the arc-shaped tipping bucket 8. The function of the counterweight 11 is to keep the arc-shaped tipping bucket 8 in a balanced state when there is no external force, thereby sealing the bent sewage pipe 7. The counterweight 11 can be fixed in the center of the inner wall of the arc-shaped tipping bucket 8 by welding, bolt connection or other means to ensure its stability.

[0034] When the toilet needs to be used, the drive device is activated (the structure of the drive device disclosed in CN221502181U is consistent with the existing technology, and the specific structure and installation method of the drive device are not described here). The motor provides power to drive the transmission gear to rotate. The transmission gear meshes with the rack on the flip-type toilet body 2, causing the flip-type toilet body 2 to flip along the rack arrangement direction until the opening end of the toilet area faces upward. At this time, the user can sit on the ring-shaped seat 3 to use the toilet.

[0035] After use, restart the drive device to flip the toilet body 2 until its top opening aligns with the outlet 4 on the side of the water storage tank at the top of the L-shaped mounting base 1, and the opening of the bent drain pipe 7 aligns with the drain outlet 5 at the bottom of the L-shaped mounting base 1. Then, perform a flushing operation. The water inside the water storage tank is flushed out through the outlet 4 and enters the bowl 6 of the flip toilet body 2 to flush away the waste in the bowl 6. The waste enters the bent drain pipe 7 with the water flow. Under the action of gravity, the waste pushes the arc-shaped tipping bucket 8 to rotate around the rotating rod 9, thereby opening the sewage channel and allowing the waste to be discharged into the building's main sewage pipe through the drain outlet 5. After the waste is discharged, because the arc-shaped tipping bucket 8 has a counterweight 11 fixed in the center of its inner wall, the arc-shaped tipping bucket 8 returns to its initial equilibrium position under the action of the counterweight 11, sealing the bent drain pipe 7 and reducing the odor from the building's main sewage pipe from entering the room.

[0036] This application can be used for odor-proof toilets, or in other fields applicable to this application.

[0037] In another embodiment:

[0038] An odor-proof toilet, used in the toilet industry;

[0039] Please refer to Figure 4 To reduce odor, the curved tipping bucket 8 can be made of corrosion-resistant stainless steel. Stainless steel has good corrosion resistance and can resist the erosion of various chemicals in dirt, reducing odors caused by material corrosion. In addition, the surface of stainless steel is smooth, does not easily adhere to dirt, is easy to clean, and can effectively reduce the emission of odors caused by dirt residue.

[0040] However, as is well known to those skilled in the art, the working principles and wiring methods of the L-shaped mounting base 1, the flip-top toilet body 2, and the electric push rod 8 are commonplace and are all conventional methods or common knowledge. They will not be described in detail here. Those skilled in the art can make any selections according to their needs or convenience.
