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.

[0026] Example 1: As Figure 1-11As shown, a storage cabinet for a squat toilet tank assembly includes a cabinet body 1 formed by two sets of opposing side panels 11, a top panel 12, and a bottom panel 13. The inner side of the cabinet body 1 has a receiving space 14 for accommodating the squat toilet tank assembly. A front panel 15 and a cabinet door 16 are fitted to the front side of the cabinet body 1. The front panel 15 is located at the upper front end of the cabinet body 1, and the cabinet body 1 has a front opening below the front panel 15. The cabinet door 16 is installed on the cabinet body 1. At the front opening, the cabinet 1 has a rear opening. An operating opening 17, corresponding to the flush button of the water tank assembly, is provided between the front panel 15 and the top panel 12, or on the top panel 12. The front opening, rear opening, and operating opening 17 all communicate with the accommodating space 14. The bottom plate 13 has a recess 18 for accommodating the water pipe. The recess 18 is a U-shaped notch located in the middle of the bottom plate 13, with its opening facing the rear of the cabinet 1. The rear opening is larger than the water tank assembly, ensuring the water tank assembly can be concealed within the cabinet, preventing the squat toilet water tank from being exposed to the external environment and improving the overall aesthetics of the bathroom.

[0027] A typical water tank assembly usually consists of a water tank body, a water supply pipe connected to the middle of the bottom of the water tank body, and a water supply component connecting the water tank body to the indoor water supply pipe. The water supply component mainly consists of an inlet pipe and an angle valve. The water supply component is usually installed on one side of the water supply pipe and on the wall below the water tank body. When the cabinet is placed over the water tank assembly, the water tank body is located behind the front panel, the water supply pipe passes through the clearance and is located behind the front opening, and the water supply component is placed within the receiving space. It should be noted that the water tank body, water supply pipe, and water supply component are all existing technologies, and this utility model will not provide a detailed description of the specific structure of the water tank body, water supply pipe, and water supply component.

[0028] The cabinet features a mounting plate 19 at the upper end of the rear opening. One end of the mounting plate 19 is connected to the left side panel 11, and the other end is connected to the right side panel 11. The mounting plate 19 has locking holes, and screws are used to pass through these holes to fix the cabinet to the wall. This simple installation method allows the cabinet to be used to add cabinets to existing water tank components, thereby improving the aesthetics of the bathroom.

[0029] The height of the accommodating space 14 is greater than the height of the water tank assembly. When the cabinet is placed on the water tank assembly, there is a gap between the top surface of the water tank body and the top plate of the cabinet. The mounting plate is set at the position corresponding to the gap in the rear opening to ensure that the mounting plate and the water tank assembly do not interfere with each other during the installation of the cabinet.

[0030] Specifically, a notch corresponding to the interval can be provided between the upper end of the front panel 15 and the top panel 12 to form an operation port 17 for the user to operate the water tank flush button; or an operation port 17 can be opened at the position corresponding to the water tank flush button on the top panel 12, and an external button can be installed at the operation port on the top panel. Each set of keys of the external button has a linkage column on its back, and the linkage column is connected to the corresponding key on the water tank flush button to realize the linkage control between the external button and the key of the water tank flush button.

[0031] The height of the front opening is close to the height of the water tank's water supply pipe, and the area of ​​the accommodating space 14 located on both sides of the water tank's water supply pipe is a storage area 110 for placing items, effectively increasing the bathroom's storage space.

[0032] The storage area 110 includes a storage component for storing items. The storage component includes a cylindrical rod 21 and a storage box. The cylindrical rod 21 has a horizontally arranged platform 22, which extends outward from the outer wall of the cylindrical rod 21. The platform 22 is circular and its outer diameter is larger than that of the cylindrical rod 21. The storage box includes a box body 23 and a connector 24 connected to one side of the box body. The connector 24 has a rotating hole 25. The connector 24 is fitted onto the cylindrical rod 21 through the rotating hole 25 and placed on the platform 22, thereby rotatably assembling the storage box onto the cylindrical rod 21. The storage box may include two sets, which are arranged sequentially along the longitudinal direction of the storage area. The platform 22 is provided with an arc-shaped limiting groove 26, which extends from the front of the center of the cylindrical rod 21 to the right of the center of the cylindrical rod 21. The center of the arc-shaped limiting groove 26 coincides with the center of the cylindrical rod 21. The lower end face of the connector 24 is provided with a limiting protrusion 27, which is embedded in the arc-shaped limiting groove 26. When retrieving items, the cabinet door is opened and the box is rotated. The limiting protrusion slides in the limiting groove as the storage box rotates. When the limiting protrusion slides to the end of the limiting groove located in front of the center of the cylindrical rod, the storage box is placed outside the front opening, making it easier to retrieve and place items. When retrieving items, the box is rotated again, and the limiting protrusion slides in the limiting groove as the storage box rotates. When the limiting protrusion slides to the end of the limiting groove located to the right of the center of the cylindrical rod, the storage box is completely placed in the storage area.

[0033] The arc-shaped limiting slide groove 26 has protrusions 28 on its inner sidewalls near both ends, forming a locking position between the protrusions 28 and the ends of the arc-shaped limiting slide groove 26. The inner diameter of the locking position is close to the outer diameter of the limiting protrusion 27, and the distance between the protrusion 28 and the inner sidewall of the opposing limiting slide groove is slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the limiting protrusion 27. When the user pulls the storage box lightly, the limiting protrusion can be disengaged from the locking position, thus restricting the storage box from rotating on its own.

[0034] The cylindrical rod is composed of an upper connecting rod and a lower connecting rod. The upper connecting rod and the lower connecting rod each have a platform section at the middle. The upper connecting rod and the lower connecting rod, as well as the lower connecting rod and the base plate, are connected by existing adhesives.

[0035] The system also includes a storage cabinet 111, which is installed on the top plate 12 of the cabinet body 1. There is a cavity between the lower side of the storage cabinet 111 and the top plate 12 of the cabinet body 1. The front end of the cavity has an opening to form an open storage space that can be used to place items such as toilet paper. When the operating opening is located on the top plate, the cavity can prevent the storage cabinet from blocking the operating opening.

[0036] The cabinet door 16 is rotatably connected to the cabinet body 1 via a hinge; or, the cabinet door 16 includes an outer door body and an inner door body disposed close to the outer door body. The upper and lower ends of the outer and inner door bodies are respectively provided with sliders. The lower end of the front plate 15 and the upper end of the bottom plate 13 are respectively provided with slide rails corresponding to the sliders. The outer and inner door bodies are slidably mounted on the cabinet body by being assembled on the slide rails via the sliders. The cabinet door not only makes it convenient for users to take out and put in items, but also makes it convenient for maintenance personnel to repair water supply pipes and angle valves, providing space for maintenance work.

[0037] It should be noted that the above-mentioned hinge components are existing technology, and this utility model will not describe the hinge components in detail.

[0038] The side panels are connected to the front panel, the bottom panel, and the top panel via L-shaped connectors. In the connection between the side panel and the front panel, the L-shaped connector is placed at the junction of the two panels, with one end fixed to the back of the front panel by a screw and the other end fixed to the back of the side panel by a screw. Similarly, in the connection between the side panel and the top panel, the L-shaped connector is placed at the junction of the two panels, with one end fixed to the back of the top panel by a screw and the other end fixed to the back of the side panel by a screw. Finally, in the connection between the side panel and the bottom panel, the L-shaped connector is placed at the junction of the two panels, with one end fixed to the upper surface of the bottom panel by a screw and the other end fixed to the back of the side panel by a screw.
