Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of toilet technology, specifically to a seat switch for a toilet seat. Background Technology

[0002] The toilet seat button is a key component that controls the toilet flushing system. When pressed, it triggers the switch through the linkage of the button spring, support spring, and other parts, enabling different flushing levels (such as full flush and half flush) and adjusting the flush volume. At the same time, the waterproof cover protects the internal parts from water corrosion, and the fixing bracket and screws ensure the stable installation of the seat button assembly, ensuring the orderly operation of the toilet flushing function.

[0003] The existing reference is Chinese utility model patent CN221480962U, which discloses a toilet seat pressing structure and a toilet seat. This toilet seat pressing structure and toilet seat includes a sleeve, a pressing component, and an outer cover. The pressing component includes a half-row button and a full-row button located within an upper limit ring. Two telescopic pressure rods are connected to the bottom of the half-row button and the full-row button. Half-row limit plates and full-row limit plates are sleeved on the outer sides of the two telescopic pressure rods. The internal thread at the top of the outer cover is threaded to the first external thread on the outside of the sleeve, thus fixing the outer cover to the outer side of the sleeve. A spring is provided between the upper and lower annular fixing plates, sleeved on the outer side of the telescopic pressure rods. This means that the springs are not fixedly connected to the upper and lower annular fixing plates, allowing for easy disassembly and replacement of the springs. The length of the telescopic pressure rods can be adjusted by rotating the inner pressure rod to match the state of the spring. This adjustment mechanism can adapt to the differences in the rebound performance of different springs, ensuring the normal operation of the toilet seat pressing structure.

[0004] Currently, the seat switches used for toilet seats still have the following problems:

[0005] When cleaning the toilet seat or surrounding area, the toilet seat button is difficult to remove quickly, which not only increases the difficulty of cleaning, but also makes the installation and removal process cumbersome and may consume a lot of time and energy when the toilet seat is damaged and needs to be replaced. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a seat ring switch for toilet seats to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that the toilet seat ring button cannot be quickly disassembled and installed.

[0007] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0008] This utility model provides a seat switch for a toilet seat, including a fixing frame, a button spring, a switch button, a support spring, a base, a waterproof cover, a switch, and screws. The button spring is elastically located in the middle of the bottom end of the fixing frame and is installed inside the middle of the switch button below. A support spring is elastically installed in the middle of the lower part of the switch button. The support spring is located inside the middle of the lower base, and a waterproof cover is sleeved on the outside of the support spring. A switch is located below the waterproof cover, and two sets of screws are located below the switch.

[0009] Preferably, the switch button has a mounting groove in the middle above its upper part that matches the button spring, one end of the button spring abuts against the bottom of the switch button, and the switch button is located inside the base.

[0010] Preferably, the waterproof cover and the base are sealed together, and the base has round holes on both sides.

[0011] Preferably, the screw is a self-tapping screw, and the fixing bracket and the base are provided with screw holes adapted to the self-tapping screw, and the screw passes through the screw holes to connect and fix the fixing bracket and the base.

[0012] Preferably, the bottom of the switch is in contact with the base plate, and the base plate has a rectangular slot inside, and sliders are fixedly connected to the four sides of the bottom of the switch.

[0013] Preferably, the mounting bracket is provided with an installation structure for engaging or screwing with the toilet seat, wherein the installation structure is a snap-fit ​​or a mounting screw hole.

[0014] Preferably, the lower ends of the fixed frame are elastically connected to movable columns on both sides, and the movable columns correspond to the large and small drain valves inside the toilet.

[0015] Compared with existing technologies, one or more of the above technical solutions have the following beneficial effects:

[0016] 1. When the toilet seat is in use, the waterproof cover can effectively isolate the water inside the tank, protect the internal components, reduce the probability of failure due to moisture, and, together with the reasonable assembly structure, allow the toilet seat button to operate stably in humid environments. It is easy to maintain and highly practical.

[0017] 2. When the toilet seat is in use, the internal parts of the toilet seat button are installed together. The button spring and support spring ensure that the seat button can rebound immediately after being pressed down, allowing for multiple presses during flushing. At the same time, the fixing bracket and screws securely install the seat button on the seat, making the seat button sensitive to operation and reliable in structure, improving the toilet flushing control experience and extending the service life of the device.
