[0002] Toilets are being used more and more frequently, and can be found in restrooms in homes, schools, and public places such as airports, train stations, high-speed trains, and hospitals.
[0003] When using the toilet at night, people usually need to turn on the bathroom light. However, on the one hand, it's difficult to quickly find the wall switch in the dark; on the other hand, the bathroom light illuminates the entire bathroom, which is too glaring for those using the toilet at night, affecting their ability to fall asleep and disturbing other resting people. If the light is not turned on, users may experience uneven urine flow when using the toilet, causing inconvenience and failing to meet their needs. Furthermore, bacteria can easily accumulate on the toilet seat after use, and if these bacteria are not disinfected promptly, they can cause hygiene problems for the user.
[0004] Therefore, various solutions have been proposed in the prior art to address the problems associated with using the toilet at night. These include installing a separate nightlight in the bathroom, or a toilet seat with a built-in light, as disclosed in Chinese Patent CN201175307Y. This toilet seat has a limited lighting range that does not disturb other resting people or cause glare to the user. However, this lighting device is embedded in the toilet seat's hinge mechanism, limiting the lighting angle and still shining directly into the eyes. Furthermore, it is inconvenient to repair and replace. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation
[0028] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this application described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations.
[0029] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, an intelligent reminder device 10 of this embodiment includes a card holder 1 and a device body 2.
[0030] The mounting bracket 1 is used to install and fix the device onto the middle of the inner surface of the toilet seat 20. The main body 2 of the device is detachably mounted on the mounting bracket 1. The front of the main body 2 has a protrusion 21, and the bottom surface of the protrusion 21 has a recess 211, in which a light 22 is installed. The main body 2 is equipped with a control component 23, which includes a sensing module 231. The control component 23 controls the opening and closing of the light 22 by sensing the human body through the sensing module 231. The sensing module 231 can adopt existing technology, such as an infrared sensing module, a radar sensing module, or other modules that can detect the human body.
[0031] See here. Figure 6 In this embodiment, the intelligent reminder device 10 can be installed on the inner surface of the toilet seat 20. When people need to urinate at night, after approaching the open toilet seat 20, the sensing module 231 in the main body 2 of the device senses the human body and automatically triggers the light 22 to light up. The light 22 is located in the groove 211, and the light produced will not directly stimulate the human eye. Instead, it will be guided by the side wall of the groove 211 from the middle of the inner surface of the toilet seat 20 to the water surface inside the toilet. That is, the light of the light 22 can accurately illuminate the inside of the toilet, making it easy for the user to observe the position of the toilet and preventing urine from deviating from the toilet and causing the toilet to become dirty. At the same time, the light pattern of the light 22 can be set as needed.
[0032] Meanwhile, the main body 2 of the device is detachably attached to the seat 1. During use, the seat 1 can be first adhered and fixed to the toilet seat 20, and then the main body 2 can be installed. If the main body 2 is damaged later, it can be easily disassembled and repaired. Furthermore, the smart reminder device 10 is installed relatively far from the toilet water surface, preventing splashing and contamination during use.
[0033] Of course, the card holder 1 can also be fixed to the toilet seat 20 by magnetic attraction, vacuum suction cup or other means, and is not limited to the method described in this embodiment.
[0034] In this embodiment, the bottom surface of the protrusion 21 is a downwardly convex arc shape, and the groove 211 is an arc-shaped groove, with the lighting lamp 22 located in the middle of the arc-shaped groove. Setting the groove 211 as an arc-shaped groove can further expand the lighting range while preventing glare.
[0035] In this embodiment, both the card holder 1 and the main body 2 of the device can be circular, which makes the appearance more beautiful and the feel just right when in use.
[0036] Furthermore, the front of the main body 2 of the device may have an arc-shaped concave surface 24; the convex part 21 is located in the middle of the arc-shaped concave surface 24. (See reference...) Figure 5 The concave surface 24 can provide a certain light reflection and guidance effect when the lighting lamp 22 is lit, so as to improve the illumination range and lighting effect.
[0037] In this embodiment, a UV (Ultraviolet) germicidal lamp 25 may be provided on the front of the protrusion 21 of the main body 2 of the device; the UV germicidal lamp 25 is electrically connected to the control component 23. Thus, after the toilet lid 20 is closed, each UV germicidal lamp 25 on the front of the protrusion 21 of the main body 2 of the device can face the inside of the toilet, and the UV germicidal lamp 25 can be turned on by the control component 23 to perform sterilization and disinfection, thereby improving the hygiene and safety of the toilet. The control component 23 may include other sensors such as an electronic gyroscope or an infrared sensor, and through programming, it can turn on the UV germicidal lamp 25 within a preset time period after recognizing that the toilet lid 20 is closed; this part can refer to existing technology.
[0038] Furthermore, the front of the protrusion 21 may be recessed with a recess 212, and six UV germicidal lamps 25 may be installed on the bottom surface of the recess 212. The outer peripheral wall of the recess 212 is a sloping reflective surface 2121. The reflective surface 2121 can guide the irradiation range of the diffused germicidal light and improve the sterilization effect.
[0039] In this embodiment, the main body 2 of the device contains a battery (not shown in the figure), which is electrically connected to the lighting lamp 22, the control component 23, and the UV sterilization lamp 25. A charging port 26 is located on the back of the main body 2, used to charge the battery. The battery powers the smart reminder device 10, and the charging port 26 is hidden between the card holder 1 and the back of the main body 2, preventing contamination. After the battery is depleted, the main body 2 can be easily removed from the card holder 1 for charging.
[0040] In this embodiment, the upper end of the protrusion 21 extends upward and smoothly transitions to the upper side of the device body 2 to reduce dust accumulation, facilitate cleaning, and ensure the product has an aesthetically pleasing appearance.
[0041] See Figure 4 In this embodiment, the card holder 1 has a recessed card groove 11 on the front, and the main body 2 of the device has a protruding card block 27 that can be detachably engaged in the card groove 11 on the back.
[0042] Specifically, the card slot 11 of the card holder 1 has a lower opening 111 that penetrates the bottom surface of the card holder 1. The upper end of the card slot 11 is closed. The front of the card slot 11 has a front opening 112. A card slot limiting block 113 is formed at the edge of the front opening 112. A card slot embedding groove 114 is formed between the card slot limiting block 113 and the bottom of the card slot 11. A bottom limiting block 115 protrudes from the upper side of the lower opening 111 of the card slot 11. A card block flange 271 is formed on the back edge of the card block 27 of the device body 2. A card block embedding groove 272 is formed between the card block flange 271 and the back of the device body 2. The card block 27 can be inserted into the card slot 11 from the lower opening 111. The card block flange 271 is used to limit the position within the card slot embedding groove 114. The card slot limiting block 113 is used to limit the position within the card block embedding groove 272. The bottom limiting block 115 is used to limit the position below the card block 27.
[0043] Therefore, when in use, the main body 2 of the device can be snapped onto the card holder 1 from bottom to top. The front and rear directions can be limited by the card block flange 271 and the card slot limiting block 113. The lower side of the main body 2 of the device can be limited by the bottom limiting block 115 to prevent it from sliding down.
[0044] See also Figure 6 The intelligent reminder device 10 may also include an external reminder component 3, which has a display module 31; the external reminder component 3 is wirelessly connected to the control component 23.
[0045] Therefore, the intelligent reminder device 10 of this embodiment can also be applied to public places. The external reminder component 3 can be set at the door of the toilet. When the main body 2 of the device detects that someone is using the toilet, the display module 31 of the external reminder component 3 can display the corresponding prompt information to indicate whether someone is using the toilet.
[0046] The display module 31 can be a display screen or an indicator light, and the prompt information can be text or different colored lights.
