Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of bathroom sensor switches, specifically a seat sensor switch based on the principle of pressure recognition. Background Technology

[0002] Toilets are a common bathroom fixture in daily life. With the development of the times, toilets now have more functions, among which heated toilet seats are ubiquitous in many smart toilets.

[0003] A common type of heated toilet seat includes an outer shell, a heating layer, and a switch on the outer shell. The switch controls the heating layer to turn on and off. The heating layer is fixedly installed on the lower surface of the outer shell. When heating is needed, the switch is manually turned on to allow the heating layer to heat up, thereby heating the outer shell and providing comfort to the user.

[0004] Regarding the aforementioned technical conditions, there is also a drawback: due to the special nature of toilets, they may have odors. When it is necessary to turn on the switch, one still needs to bend over and manually touch the switch, which is troublesome and a challenge for people with obsessive-compulsive disorder, making it inconvenient to turn on the heating switch.

[0005] Based on this, this utility model designs a seat sensing switch based on the pressure recognition principle to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a seat-sensing switch based on pressure recognition principle, comprising a housing, a mounting base, and a pressure sensor. The mounting base is fixedly mounted on the housing and has a mounting groove. The pressure sensor includes a detection plate and a processor, which are respectively fixedly mounted in the mounting groove. The detection plate has a connecting groove, and a test plate is fixedly mounted in the connecting groove. A connecting plate is mounted on the mounting base, and a connecting block is fixedly mounted on the lower side of the connecting plate. The lower side of the connecting block abuts against the test plate. A control panel is mounted in the mounting base. The processor is electrically connected to the control panel, and the control panel is electrically connected to the switch of the heating layer of the toilet seat. When the pressure sensor detects pressure, the control panel controls the switch of the heating layer to open.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, when using the toilet, pressing down on the toilet seat will cause the pressure sensor to detect the pressure change and the value to exceed the set value. At this time, the pressure sensor will send a signal to the control panel, which will then control the switch of the heating layer to turn on, allowing the heating layer to heat up without the need for manual touch of the switch. This makes it convenient to turn on the heating layer switch and achieve the effect of automatic heating.

[0008] Preferably, a stabilizing plate is fixedly disposed on the connecting block, and the stabilizing plate is inserted into the communicating groove.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the stabilizing plate is inserted into the connecting slot, reducing the movement of the connecting block and stabilizing its placement.

[0010] Preferably, a sealing ring is fixedly provided on the mounting base, and the sealing ring abuts against the outer shell.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the sealing ring can improve the sealing effect and reduce the amount of moisture entering the outer casing.

[0012] Preferably, a heat insulation layer is fixedly provided on the mounting base.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the heat insulation layer can improve the heat insulation effect of the mounting base and reduce the heat from the heating layer entering the outer shell, thereby improving the accuracy of the pressure sensor.

[0014] Preferably, the mounting base is fixedly provided with a fixing groove, and the sealing ring is fixedly disposed in the fixing groove.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the fixing groove can reduce the movement of the sealing ring and stabilize its placement.

[0016] In summary, this application has the following beneficial technical effects: by adopting the above technical solution, when using the toilet, the toilet seat is pressed down. At this time, the pressure sensor senses the change in pressure and the value exceeds the set value. At this time, the pressure sensor sends a signal to the control panel, and the control panel controls the switch of the heating layer to turn on, so that the heating layer can heat up without the need for manual touch of the switch, making it convenient to turn on the heating layer switch and achieve the effect of automatic heating.

[0025] 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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0026] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-5 This application will be described in further detail.

[0027] Reference Figures 1-5 A pressure-based seat sensor switch includes a housing 1, a mounting base 2, and a pressure sensor. The housing 1 is fixedly installed on a toilet seat near the buttocks. In this embodiment, the toilet seat has an electric heating layer connected to a household power source or a battery. The mounting base 2 is fixedly installed on the housing 1 and has a mounting groove 4. The pressure sensor includes a detection piece 5 and a processor 6. Multiple support blocks 7 are fixedly installed in the mounting groove 4. The detection piece 5 is fixedly installed on multiple support blocks 7. The processor 6 is fixedly installed in the mounting groove 4. The detection piece 5 has a connecting groove 8, and a test plate 9 is fixedly installed in the connecting groove 8. When the test plate 9 deforms, the processor 6 generates a corresponding signal based on the deformation of the test plate 9.

[0028] Reference Figures 1-5 A connecting plate 10 is provided on the mounting base 2. A connecting block 11 is fixedly provided on the lower side of the connecting plate 10. The lower side of the connecting block 11 abuts against the test plate 9. A stabilizing plate 12 is fixedly provided on the connecting block 11. The stabilizing plate 12 is inserted into the connecting groove 8. There are two stabilizing plates 12. The test plate 9 is located between the two stabilizing plates 12. When the connecting block 11 is placed on the test plate 9, the test plate 9 can reduce the movement of the connecting block 11 and make the connecting block 11 stably placed on the test plate 9.

[0029] Reference Figures 1-5 When using the toilet, the buttocks sit on the toilet seat and press down on the connecting plate 10. The connecting block 11 presses down on the test plate 9. The processor 6 detects the pressure change on the detection plate. When the processor detects the pressure change and the value exceeds the set value, it sends a signal to the control panel 13. The control panel 13 controls the switch of the heating layer to turn on, so that the heating layer can be heated without the need for manual touch of the switch. This makes it convenient to turn on the heating layer switch and achieve the effect of automatic heating.

[0030] Reference Figures 1-5 The control panel 13 records the time when the user sits down each day. During the time when the user frequently uses the toilet, such as between 7 a.m. and 8 a.m., the control panel 13 turns on the heating layer in advance, allowing the heating layer to preheat at a low power. This speeds up the process of the toilet seat reaching the required temperature during use, thereby improving the comfort of the user's buttocks.

[0031] Reference Figures 1-5 The mounting base 2 has a fixing groove 14, and a sealing ring 15 is fitted on the fixing groove 14. The fixing groove 14 can reduce the movement of the sealing ring 15 and stabilize the sealing ring 15. In this embodiment, the sealing ring is made of silicone. When the mounting base 2 is located in the outer shell 1, the sealing ring 15 presses against the outer shell 1 and clamps the mounting base 2, thereby fixing the mounting base 2 on the outer shell 1 and facilitating the installation of the mounting base 2. The sealing ring 15 can also improve the sealing effect and reduce the amount of moisture entering the outer shell 1.

[0032] Reference Figures 1-5 A heat insulation layer 3 is fixedly installed on the mounting base 2. The heat insulation layer 3 can improve the heat insulation effect of the mounting base 2 and reduce the heat of the heating layer entering the outer shell 1, thereby improving the accuracy of the pressure sensor.

[0033] The implementation principle of this embodiment is as follows: When using the toilet, the toilet seat is pressed down. At this time, the pressure sensor senses the change in pressure and the value exceeds the set value. At this time, the pressure sensor sends a signal to the control panel 13, and the control panel 13 controls the switch of the heating layer to turn on, so that the heating layer can heat up without the need for manual touch of the switch, making it convenient to turn on the heating layer switch and achieve the effect of automatic heating.
