Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of products for the elderly, and more specifically, to a toilet for the elderly. Background Technology
[0002] The toilet, also known as a commode, is an indispensable sanitary fixture in modern bathrooms. It is mainly used for the collection and disposal of human excrement. It greatly improves people's convenience and hygiene, and has become an indispensable part of modern home life.
[0003] Because the spines of the elderly are more fragile, squatting quickly when using the toilet can damage the spine. In addition, existing toilets are usually made of hard material, which is not conducive to the use of the elderly.
[0004] Therefore, a toilet for the elderly is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, the present invention provides a toilet for the elderly to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a toilet for the elderly, comprising a toilet, characterized in that a soft pad is provided at the top of the toilet, the soft pad is provided in multiple sets, each set of soft pads is in a compressed state at one end and in a fluffy state at the other end, and the soft pad at the top is provided with a hinge at the fluffy end, the other end of the hinge is connected to a bucket lid, and a retaining pad is provided on the side wall of the bucket lid, and the retaining pad is engaged with the middle part of the soft pad.
[0007] Preferably, the multiple sets of soft pads are interconnected, and the compressed ends and fluffy ends of the multiple sets of soft pads are connected accordingly.
[0008] Preferably, the toilet is provided with a water storage tank on the back, and the water storage tank is provided with a drainage and flushing device, which is connected to the toilet.
[0009] Preferably, the toilet has a drain outlet at the bottom, and a drain pipe is provided at the bottom of the drain outlet.
[0010] The technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows:
[0011] Compared with existing technologies, this utility model increases the softness of the toilet by setting a soft pad at the top of the toilet. When the elderly use the toilet, it can better protect the contact area between the elderly and the toilet. At the same time, since one end of the soft pad is compressed and the other end is fluffy, the soft pad is tilted, which allows it to make contact with the elderly more quickly when they squat down. The cushioning of the soft pad allows the elderly to squat down slowly, thus protecting their spine. After the elderly person leaves, the fluffy end of the soft pad returns to its original position for subsequent use. Attached Figure Description
[0012] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the overall structure of this utility model.
[0013] Figure 2 for Figure 1 The diagram shows a side view of the structure.
[0014] Figure 3 for Figure 1 The diagram shows a structural design viewed from below.
[0015] The attached diagram is labeled as follows: 1. Toilet; 2. Seat cushion; 3. Lid; 4. Gasket; 5. Hinge; 6. Water tank; 7. Drainage and flushing equipment; 8. Sewage pipe; 9. Sewage outlet. Detailed Implementation
[0016] 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 of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model. Example
[0017] As attached Figures 1 to 3 The toilet shown includes a toilet 1, with a soft pad 2 at the top of the toilet 1. The soft pad 2 is provided in multiple sets, with one end of each set of soft pad 2 being compressed and the other end being fluffy. The fluffy end of the soft pad 2 at the top is provided with a hinge 5, and the other end of the hinge 5 is connected to a bucket lid 3. The side wall of the bucket lid 3 is provided with a retaining pad 4, and the retaining pad 4 is engaged with the middle part of the soft pad 2.
[0018] Specifically, the soft pad 2 at the top of the toilet 1 increases the softness of the toilet 1, which can better protect the contact area between the elderly and the toilet 1 when the elderly use the toilet 1. At the same time, since one end of the soft pad 2 is compressed and the other end is fluffy, the soft pad 2 is tilted, which can make contact with the elderly more quickly when the elderly squat down, and the cushioning of the soft pad 2 can help the elderly squat down slowly, thereby protecting the elderly's spine. After the elderly leave, the fluffy end of the soft pad 2 returns to its original position for subsequent use. Example
[0019] Based on Embodiment 1, the solution in Embodiment 1 will be further described in detail below, with reference to the specific working method described in detail:
[0020] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, the multiple sets of soft pads 2 are interconnected, and the compressed ends and fluffy ends of the multiple sets of soft pads 2 are connected accordingly.
[0021] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, a water storage tank 6 is provided on the back of the toilet 1, and a drainage and flushing device 7 is provided inside the water storage tank 6, and the drainage and flushing device 7 is in communication with the toilet 1.
[0022] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, the toilet 1 is provided with a drain outlet 9 at the bottom, and a drain pipe 8 is provided at the bottom of the drain outlet 9.
[0023] The working process of this utility model is as follows:
[0024] In use, the soft pad 2 at the top of the toilet 1 increases the softness of the toilet 1, which can better protect the contact area between the elderly and the toilet 1 when the elderly use the toilet 1. At the same time, since one end of the soft pad 2 is compressed and the other end is fluffy, the soft pad 2 is tilted, which can make contact with the elderly more quickly when the elderly squat down, and the cushioning of the soft pad 2 can make the elderly squat down slowly, thereby protecting the elderly's spine. After the elderly leave, the fluffy end of the soft pad 2 returns to its original position for subsequent use.
[0025] Finally, the following points should be noted: First, in the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise specified and limited, the terms "installation", "connection", and "linkage" should be interpreted broadly, and can be mechanical or electrical connections, or internal connections between two components, or direct connections.
