[0030] Reference Figures 1 to 7 A horizontally arranged toilet tank flush button structure, comprising:

[0031] Box cover 10, the box cover 10 is provided with key holes, and the box cover 10 is provided with a rotating shaft along the front-back direction;

[0032] A drain button is arranged horizontally on the top of the cover 10 via a pivot, and the drain button swings on the button hole in a direction restricted by the pivot.

[0033] This utility model also discloses a toilet flushing tank, including a tank body 1, wherein a flushing valve body is provided inside the tank body 1. The characteristic is that the tank body 1 is covered with the above-mentioned horizontally arranged toilet flushing tank button structure, wherein the flushing valve body abuts against the bottom of the drain button through a connecting rod.

[0034] By arranging a pivot on the tank cover 10 along the front-to-back direction, and by arranging a drain button horizontally on the top of the tank cover 10 through the pivot, the drain button can make full use of the horizontal length of the tank cover 10 of the toilet tank, giving the drain button a larger operating range, making it more convenient for users to press, and accommodating various types of users.

[0035] Considering that toilet tanks generally have two functions, full flush and half flush, it is preferable that the button holes include a full flush button hole 11 and a half flush button hole 12, and the rotating shaft includes a full flush rotating shaft 111 and a half flush rotating shaft 121 arranged in the front-back direction;

[0036] The drainage buttons include a full-drain button 21 and a half-drain button 22. The full-drain button 21 is arranged horizontally on the top of the cover 10 via a full-drain pivot 111, and the full-drain button 21 swings around the full-drain pivot 111 on the full-drain button hole 11. The half-drain button 22 is arranged horizontally on the top of the cover 10 via a half-drain pivot 121, and the half-drain button 22 swings around the half-drain pivot 121 on the half-drain button hole 12.

[0037] Further optimization is made considering that the full flush and half flush switches of the flush valve body are generally located in the middle of the toilet tank. In order to arrange the full flush button 21 and half flush button 22 at their maximum length, the full flush shaft 111 and half flush shaft 121 are preferably arranged at both ends of the tank cover 10.

[0038] In this design, it is preferable that the full row of buttons 11 and the half row of buttons 12 have the same shape.

[0039] Further optimization is preferred, with both the full-row button hole 11 and the half-row button hole 12 being top-opening blind hole structures. The height of both the full-row button hole 11 and the half-row button hole 12 gradually decreases from both ends of the cover 10 towards the middle. A through-hole 13 is provided at the bottom of one end of the full-row button hole 11 and the half-row button hole 12 located in the middle of the cover 10. The through-hole is used to connect the full-row button 21 and the half-row button 22 to the flush valve body. At the same time, the blind hole structure of the full-row button hole 11 and the half-row button hole 12 allows the bottom surface of the full-row button 21 and the half-row button 22 to be supported when the full-row button 21 and the half-row button 22 swing, thereby limiting the downward swing amplitude of the full-row button 21 and the half-row button 22.

[0040] Further optimization is preferred, with full-row notches 101 and half-row notches 102 respectively provided at both ends of the cover 10. The full-row button holes 11 and half-row button holes 12 extend to the ends of the cover 10. The full-row rotating shaft 111 is arranged on the full-row notch 101, and the half-row rotating shaft 121 is arranged on the half-row notch 102. At least one connecting plate 23 extending downward is provided at the bottom of the outer end of the full-row button 21 and the half-row button 22. The connecting plate 23 and the bottom surface of the full-row button 21 or the half-row button 22 form a slot 24. The slot 24 includes a circular groove 242 at the end and a horn groove 241 located outside the circular groove 242 and connected to the circular groove 242. The circular groove 242 is sleeved with the full-row rotating shaft 111 or the half-row rotating shaft 121. This structure makes the installation of the full row buttons 21 and the half row buttons 22 very simple. Taking the full row buttons 21 as an example, during installation, the full row buttons 21 are inserted horizontally into the full row button holes 11 along the full row notch 101. At this time, the speaker groove 241 first accommodates the full row shaft 111, and then pushes the full row buttons 21 inward, so that the full row shaft 111 enters the circular groove 242. At this time, through the cooperation of the circular groove and the full row shaft 111, the full row buttons 21 can swing smoothly. At the same time, the flared shape of the speaker groove 241 will not restrict the swing amplitude of the full row buttons 21 too much.

[0041] Further optimization is preferred, where the width of the end connecting the horn groove 241 and the circular groove 242 is smaller than the diameter of the circular groove 242 under normal conditions. The connecting plate 23 is elastic, allowing it to open the end of the horn groove 241 to be no smaller than the diameter of the circular groove 242 during elastic deformation. Thus, during installation, when the full-row rotating shaft 111 or half-row rotating shaft 121 enters the circular groove 242 from the horn groove 241, it will be blocked by the end of the horn groove 241. Further force needs to be applied to the full-row button 21 or half-row button 22 to cause elastic deformation of the connecting plate 23, allowing the full-row rotating shaft 111 or half-row rotating shaft 121 to enter the circular groove 242. Once the full-row rotating shaft 111 or half-row rotating shaft 121 is in the circular groove 242, the size of the end of the horn groove 241 can, in turn, restrict the full-row rotating shaft 111 or half-row rotating shaft 121 from easily detaching.

[0042] To further optimize the design and prevent the connecting plate 23 from cracking, it is preferable that the inner side of the connecting plate 23 is provided with reinforcing ribs 25 surrounding the edges of the horn groove 241 and the circular groove 242.

[0043] To further optimize the structure and make it more reasonable, the full-displacement shaft 111 preferably includes two full-displacement halves 1111, which are respectively arranged on the front and rear end faces of the full-displacement notch 101. Similarly, the half-displacement shaft 121 includes two half-displacement halves 1211, which are respectively arranged on the front and rear end faces of the half-displacement notch 102. Both the full-displacement notch 101 and the half-displacement notch 102 are provided with a fixed mounting plate 15 extending to the outer edge of the tank cover 10. The front and rear sides of the fixed mounting plate 15 are respectively connected to the ends of the two full-displacement halves 1111 or the two half-displacement halves 1211. The fixed mounting plate 15 is provided with a quick-release buckle 151 for quick installation onto the water tank.

[0044] In this solution, the full row of button holes 11 and the half row of button holes 12 can be completely independent. However, under special circumstances, the sides of the full row of button holes 11 and the half row of button holes 12 that are close to each other can be connected.

[0045] Further optimization is preferred, with a limiting groove 14 provided on the side wall of the full row button hole 11 and half row button hole 12 away from the full row rotating shaft 111 and half row rotating shaft 121, and a limiting pin 26 provided on the edge of the full row button 21 and half row button 22, which is movably engaged in the limiting groove 14, thereby limiting the upward swing amplitude of the full row button 21 and half row button 22.

[0046] In this plan, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 6Ideally, both the full row of buttons 21 and the half row of buttons 22 should occupy about half the length of the top left and right sides of the lid 10. However, depending on the aesthetic requirements, the lengths of the full row of buttons 21 and the half row of buttons 22 can also be set to about one-quarter of the length of the top left and right sides of the lid 10. Figure 7 As shown.

[0047] In this design, the rotating shaft can also be indirectly arranged on the cover 10 by being positioned on the drain button.

[0048] In this solution, the shaft can also be arranged by setting a shaft hole on the bottom surface of the cover 10 and then detachably installing the shaft on the shaft hole.

[0049] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and do not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural transformations made based on the inventive concept of this utility model and the contents of this utility model specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
