[0047] The present invention will now be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0048] To facilitate the understanding of the technical solution of this patent by those skilled in the art, and to make the technical purpose, technical solution and beneficial effects of this patent clearer, and to fully support the scope of protection of the claims, the technical solution of this patent will be further and more detailed below in the form of specific cases.

[0049] Reference Figure 1 This embodiment includes a toilet seat, two support rods, a support plate, and a base plate; the two support rods are parallel to each other, and their tops are hinged to the top of the toilet seat; the support plate and the base plate are both supported between the two support rods. (See reference...) Figure 3 To accommodate toilets of varying heights, the support rod is designed as a telescopic rod, comprising a sleeve and a sliding tube. One end of the sliding tube is located within the sleeve, allowing for relative sliding between the two. The sliding direction of the sliding tube is parallel to the central axis of the sleeve.

[0050] To achieve the function of adjusting the position (height) of the support plate, refer to Figure 2 A sliding sleeve is fitted onto the bottom section of the sleeve of the support rod; the specific structure of the sliding sleeve is described in detail below. Figure 4 and Figure 5 as well as Figure 12 The sliding sleeve is equipped with a fixing pin, a fixing hole, and a support edge for connecting the support plate. The three parts respectively cooperate with the connecting hole at the end of the support plate, the connecting pin, and the bottom of the support plate to make the support plate parallel to the horizontal plane and prevent rotation.

[0051] In this embodiment, two sliding sleeves are provided, each mounted on a separate sleeve, and slide up and down on the corresponding sleeve. The two ends of the support plate are connected to the two sliding sleeves respectively. To lock the position of the support plate, a long groove area for mounting the strip-shaped pressing block is provided on one side of the sliding sleeve. (Refer to...) Figure 7 The strip-shaped pressing block is hinged to the long groove area by a pin. The strip-shaped pressing block has a pressing surface, and on the back side of the pressing surface, there is a first spring (not marked in the figure). The first spring abuts against the long groove area, and the top of the first spring abuts against the strip-shaped pressing block. When the pressing surface of the strip-shaped pressing block is pressed, the first spring contracts. When the pressing surface is released, the spring lifts one end of the strip-shaped pressing block.

[0052] Specific reference Figure 5 A through hole is provided at the other end of the long groove area, leading to the inside of the sliding sleeve; two positioning grooves are provided on the sleeve inside the sliding sleeve, meaning the support plate has two adjustable positions. The pressure head of the strip-shaped pressing block passes through the through hole on the sliding sleeve and abuts against the positioning groove on the support rod.

[0053] Reference Figures 6 to 7 If the position of the support plate needs to be adjusted, press the pressing surface of the strip-shaped pressing block. The first spring contracts, and due to the seesaw principle, the other end of the strip-shaped pressing block tilts upward, and the pressing head disengages from the positioning groove of the support rod. At this time, the sliding sleeve adjusts the position of the support plate. After reaching another position, the through hole and another positioning groove are aligned. Release the strip-shaped pressing block, and the pressing head of the strip-shaped pressing block presses down and enters the other positioning groove to achieve position adjustment and locking.

[0054] To accommodate toilets of varying heights with a ladder-like structure, a telescopic rod is used as a support. (See reference) Figure 6 Its main components are a sleeve and a sliding tube, with one end of the sliding tube located inside the sleeve. The two slide relative to each other to achieve expansion and contraction.

[0055] A sliding rod is installed inside the sliding tube; the specific structure of the top of the sliding rod is described in detail below. Figure 10 A back cavity area is provided on it, and a clip is installed in the back cavity area, forming a back cavity area with a bottom slope on the top surface and a flat surface on the bottom surface. (Refer to...) Figure 9 The top of the stop is provided with a top slope, which contacts the bottom slope, allowing for relative sliding. The locking head on one side of the stop passes through a slot into the back cavity area and through an opening in the slide tube, abutting against the positioning hole inside the sleeve. A window is opened at the bottom of the slide tube, through which the slide rod is exposed, but it does not extend outwards to prevent accidental contact.

[0056] The second spring can be placed at either the bottom or top of the slide rod, and it is not mandatory; it can also be omitted. When placed at the bottom, one end of the second spring is connected to the slide rod, and the other end is connected to the bottom of the slide tube; it is a compression spring. When placed at the top, one end of the second spring is connected to both the slide rod and the top of the slide tube; it is a tension spring.

[0057] The third spring is located inside the slide tube, between the displacement slide tube and the stop; it causes the stop's locking head to extend outward from the opening.

[0058] Reference Figures 10 to 11 When the length of the support rod needs to be adjusted, pull down the slide rod exposed at the window opening position. The slide rod moves down (as a compression spring, it contracts; as a tension spring, it extends). In the back cavity area of ​​the slide rod, its top and bottom inclined surfaces slide relative to each other. The third spring retracts, the latch retracts, and the latch head is dislodged from the positioning hole. Adjust the relative position of the sleeve and the slide tube until the other positioning hole is aligned with the opening of the slide rod. Release the slide rod, and the second spring rebounds (as a compression spring, it extends; as a tension spring, it shortens). The slide rod moves up, and the third spring extends, causing the latch head to extend outward and lock into the other positioning hole.

[0059] In this embodiment, rubber pads are provided at the bottom of the toilet seat, the bottom of the base plate, and the bottom of the sliding rod, respectively for anti-slip purposes with the toilet and the ground; anti-slip patterns are provided on the top of the support plate and the top of the base plate for anti-slip purposes with shoes. The two ends of the base plate are respectively hinged to the bottom of two sliding tubes; the top of the sleeve is hinged to the toilet seat.

[0060] To further prevent the jammer from sliding down with the slide rod, a stop block is also provided inside the slide tube. The stop block is located in the back cavity area and is connected to the inner wall of the slide tube by bolts.

[0061] In summary, based on the interpretative role of the claims in this patent specification, any specific implementation that falls within the scope of the claims of this patent is within the protection scope of this patent.
