Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of flushing device technology, and in particular to a flushing device with an indicator light. Background Technology

[0002] Washers typically have indicator lights to show their current operating status. Existing washer indicator lights generally use a blind hole near the indicator light on the housing, with a thin wall at the bottom to allow light to pass through while also being waterproof. However, this blind hole structure results in varying brightness of the indicator light depending on the color of the housing; the darker the housing color, the less bright the indicator light. Therefore, this invention provides a new indicator light mounting structure to solve the aforementioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0003] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model proposes a flushing device structure with good light transmission effect for the indicator light.

[0004] A flushing device with indicator lights includes a flushing device body, a circuit board, control buttons, and a light guide.

[0005] The flushing device has an internal mounting cavity for installing electronic components and setting up water channels, while the periphery has button holes and light-transmitting holes that connect to the mounting cavity.

[0006] The circuit board is installed in the mounting cavity of the rinsing device body and includes a trigger switch and an indicator light. The trigger switch faces the button hole, and the indicator light is close to the light-transmitting hole.

[0007] The control button is fixed to the body of the flusher and is linked to the trigger switch through the button hole, which can control the working status of the circuit board and the flusher.

[0008] The light guide is fixed to the body of the rinser and connected to the light-transmitting hole, transmitting the light source of the indicator light to the outside of the rinser body. It can conduct the light of the indicator light outward to indicate the current status of the rinser.

[0009] The flushing device provided by this utility model uses a light-transmitting hole and a light guide to replace the traditional blind hole, which solves the problem that the light guide of the blind hole is affected by the color of the flushing device body. No matter what color the flushing device body is facing, the light transmitted by the light guide is consistent and stable. In addition, it does not require the high-precision processing or molding process required for the thin bottom of the blind hole.

[0010] Preferably, the light guide is made of light-transmitting or semi-light-transmitting rubber or plastic material, which is low in cost and easy to mold.

[0011] Preferably, the light guide is stepped in shape, with the larger diameter portion fitting against the outer periphery of the flushing device body and the smaller diameter portion passing through the light-transmitting hole and close to the indicator light. This prevents the light guide from falling completely into the light-transmitting hole and also improves the sealing degree of the light-transmitting hole.

[0012] Preferably, the light guide is stepped in shape, with the larger diameter portion fitting against the inner circumference of the rinsing device body and close to the indicator light, while the smaller diameter portion passes through the light-transmitting hole and extends to the outside of the rinsing device body, which can improve the light guiding effect and installation firmness.

[0013] Preferably, the control buttons include an H-position button and an L-position button, each mounted through one of the button holes. There are also two trigger switches, an H-position switch and an L-position switch, which face the H-position button and the L-position button respectively, thus enriching the functions of the washer.

[0014] Preferably, the H-position button and the L-position button are integrally molded, making the external shape of the flusher simpler and reducing the number of parts. At the same time, it can improve the installation firmness of the control button. During installation, the bottom of the control button passes through the button hole and is linked to the trigger switch.

[0015] Preferably, the control buttons are made of a soft material that provides a good tactile feel.

[0016] Preferably, to further improve the installation firmness and stability of the light guide and to prevent it from falling or being exposed, the control button covers the light-transmitting hole, and the control button has a light-transmitting opening corresponding to the light guide.

[0017] Preferably, the flushing device body includes a main body and a water outlet head, and the water inlet end of the water outlet head is assembled to the water outlet end of the main body through a snap-fit ​​structure, which is simple in structure and easy to disassemble and assemble.

[0018] Preferably, to improve the assembly's firmness, the part where the main body and the water outlet head meet is also provided with a limiting structure, including a limiting protrusion and a limiting groove. Both the limiting protrusion and the limiting groove are parallel to the axial direction of the flushing device body. The limiting protrusion is located on the outer periphery of the water inlet end of the water outlet head, and the limiting groove is located on the inner ring of the docking groove at the water outlet end of the main body. One side wall of the limiting groove is a limiting wall, and the other side wall is formed by a strip-shaped protrusion parallel to the limiting protrusion. The docking head and the main body are inserted and rotated. The limiting protrusion approaches the strip-shaped protrusion and passes over the strip-shaped protrusion through compression deformation, and is locked into the limiting groove. At this time, the buckle structure forms a locked state, and under the action of the limiting structure, the locked state is stable and reliable. In addition, the limiting protrusion has a smooth feel from resistance when passing over the strip-shaped protrusion, or it suddenly locks into the limiting groove with a sound, which can remind the user that the main body and the water outlet head are assembled in place.

[0019] As can be seen from the above description of this utility model, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0020] The flushing device provided by this utility model uses a light-transmitting hole and a light guide to replace the traditional blind hole, which solves the problem that the light guide of the blind hole is affected by the color of the flushing device body. No matter what color the flushing device body is facing, the light transmitted by the light guide is consistent and stable. In addition, it does not require the high-precision processing or molding process required for the thin bottom of the blind hole.

[0021] The light guide is made of light-transmitting or semi-light-transmitting rubber or plastic material, and can be installed by interference fit. It has a simple structure, low cost, and is easy to assemble.

[0022] The H-position button and L-position button are integrally molded, making the external shape of the flusher simpler and reducing the number of parts. At the same time, it can improve the installation firmness of the control buttons.

[0023] The control button covers the light-transmitting hole and presses down on the light guide, which can further improve the installation firmness and stability of the light guide and prevent it from falling off and being exposed.

[0038] To make the technical problem to be solved, the technical solution, and the beneficial effects of this utility model clearer and more understandable, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model.

[0039] Please see Figures 1 to 10 A flushing device with indicator light 22 includes a flushing device body 1, a circuit board 2, control buttons 3, and a light guide 4, wherein...

[0040] The flushing device body 1 has an installation cavity 111 for installing electronic components and setting up water channels, while the periphery has a button hole 112 and a light-transmitting hole 113 that connect to the installation cavity 111.

[0041] In one embodiment, the flushing device body 1 includes a body 11 and a water outlet head 12, and the water inlet end of the water outlet head 12 is assembled to the water outlet end of the body 11 via a snap-fit ​​structure 13. This structure is simple and easy to assemble and disassemble. In other embodiments, to improve the assembly's firmness, a limiting structure is provided at the joint between the body 11 and the water outlet head 12, including a limiting protrusion and a limiting groove 114. Both the limiting protrusion and the limiting groove 114 are parallel to the axial direction of the flushing device body 1. The limiting protrusion is located on the outer periphery of the water inlet end of the water outlet head 12, and the limiting groove 114 is located within the inner ring of the joint groove at the water outlet end of the body 11. One side wall of the limiting groove 114 is a limiting wall 1141, and the other side wall is formed by a strip-shaped protrusion parallel to the limiting protrusion. The assembly consists of a docking head and a body 11 that are inserted into and rotated. The limiting protrusion approaches the strip-shaped protrusion and, through compression deformation, passes over the strip-shaped protrusion and is engaged in the limiting groove 114. At this time, the swivel structure 13 forms a locked state, and under the action of the limiting structure, the locked state is stable and reliable. In addition, the limiting protrusion has a smooth feel as it passes over the strip-shaped protrusion, or it makes a sound when it suddenly engages in the limiting groove 114, which can remind the user that the body 11 and the water outlet head 12 are assembled in place.

[0042] The circuit board 2 is installed in the mounting cavity 111 of the rinsing body 1 and includes a trigger switch 21 and an indicator light 22. The trigger switch 21 faces the button hole 112 and the indicator light 22 is close to the light-transmitting hole 113.

[0043] The control button 3 is fixed to the body 1 of the flusher and is linked to the trigger switch 21 through the button hole 112, which can control the working status of the circuit board 2 and the flusher.

[0044] The light guide 4 is fixed to the body of the rinser and connected to the light-transmitting hole 113, transmitting the light source of the indicator light 22 to the outside of the body of the rinser 1 to indicate the current status of the rinser.

[0045] In one embodiment, the light guide 4 is made of light-transmitting or semi-transmitting rubber or plastic material, which is low in cost and easy to mold. Furthermore, the light guide 4 can be stepped in shape, with the larger diameter portion fitting against the outer periphery of the rinsing device body 1, and the smaller diameter portion passing through the light-transmitting hole 113 and close to the indicator light 22. This prevents the light guide 4 from falling completely into the light-transmitting hole 113 and also improves the sealing degree of the light-transmitting hole 113.

[0046] In another embodiment, the light guide 4 is generally stepped, with the larger diameter portion fitting against the inner circumference of the rinsing device body 1 and close to the indicator light 22, and the smaller diameter portion passing through the light-transmitting hole 113 and extending to the outside of the rinsing device body 1, which can improve the light guiding effect and installation firmness.

[0047] In one embodiment, the control button 3 includes an H-position button and an L-position button, each mounted through a button hole 112. There are also two trigger switches 21, one for the H-position and one for the L-position, facing the H-position button and the other for the L-position button respectively, thus enriching the functions of the bidet. Furthermore, the H-position button and the L-position button can be integrally molded, making the external design of the bidet simpler and reducing the number of parts. During installation, the bottom of the control button 3 passes through the button hole 112 and triggers the trigger switch 21.

[0048] In addition, the control button 3 is made of a soft material and has a good feel.

[0049] Based on the above embodiments, in order to further improve the installation firmness and stability of the light guide 4 and avoid falling and exposure, the control button 3 covers the light-transmitting hole 113 and presses down the light guide 4. The control button 3 is provided with a light-transmitting opening 33 corresponding to the light guide 4.

[0050] The flushing device provided by this utility model uses a light-transmitting hole 113 and a light guide 4 to replace the traditional blind hole, which solves the problem that the light guide of the blind hole is affected by the color of the flushing device body 1. No matter what color the flushing device body 1 is facing, the light transmitted by the light guide 4 is consistent and stable. In addition, there is no need for the high-precision processing or molding process required for the thin bottom of the blind hole.
