[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: an automatic toilet flushing device, comprising a toilet tank, wherein an electric pump is placed inside the toilet tank;
[0006] An impeller chamber is installed at one end of the electric pump, and an inlet pipe is fixed at one end of the impeller chamber. A first outlet connecting pipe is connected to the top of the impeller chamber along the external tangential direction. A second outlet connecting pipe is connected to the top of the impeller chamber at a position symmetrical to the first outlet connecting pipe. A centrifugal impeller is connected to the power output end of the electric pump. A first outlet pipe is snapped onto the top of the first outlet connecting pipe, and a second outlet pipe is installed on the top of the second outlet connecting pipe.
[0007] The top of the first water outlet pipe is connected to a limiting pipe, and a piston plate is movably engaged inside the limiting pipe. A stabilizing rod is fixed at the bottom end of the piston plate. A water outlet hole is opened in the middle of the limiting pipe. An installation short pipe is installed on the outside of the limiting pipe at the position corresponding to the water outlet hole. An interface pipe is engaged and fixed inside the installation short pipe. A top cover is installed on the top of the limiting pipe.

[0019] 1. By setting up a centrifugal impeller with impeller plates, a central chamber, long blades, and short blades, the long and short blades work together to separate the water flow first through the long blades and then through the short blades, thus saving electric pump power and achieving good centrifugal effect. In addition, with the symmetrically distributed first and second water outlet connecting pipes, the rotation direction of the centrifugal impeller can be switched by the electric pump, thereby switching the water output. The water from the first water outlet pipe sprays out from the brush ring water channel to flush the inner wall of the toilet seat, and the water from the second water outlet pipe sprays out from the jet water channel to flush the inner wall of the toilet seat, resulting in a stronger flush and a cleaner wash.
[0020] 2. By setting a movable piston plate, the piston plate moves down to below the outlet hole as the liquid level drops when the water outlet pipe ends, blocking the top of the first outlet pipe. This can block the sewage, making it less likely for the sewage to flow back and damage the electric pump.
[0021] 3. By setting up a movable ring and a sealing pipe, it can move between the first water outlet pipe and the second water outlet pipe. When water comes out of the first water outlet pipe, it can impact the movable ring and the sealing pipe to move and block the second water outlet pipe. When the second water outlet pipe is in use, the water flow will impact and move the sealing pipe, which will assist in the switching of water outlet and make the water outlet switching more flexible.

A top cover 15 is installed on the top of the limiting pipe 9.
[0037] The centrifugal impeller 7 includes an impeller plate 701, a central chamber 702, long blades 703, and short blades 704;
[0038] The power output end of the electric pump 2 is connected to an impeller plate 701. A central chamber 702 is provided in the middle of the impeller plate 701. Long blades 703 and short blades 704 are distributed at equal angles inside the central chamber 702. The long blades 703 and short blades 704 are distributed at equal angles. The long blades 703 and short blades 704 are staggered to facilitate the sequential separation of water flow and save the power of the electric pump 2.
[0039] The bottom of the first water outlet pipe 8 is provided with a side hole 16. A side short pipe 17 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the first water outlet pipe 8 corresponding to the position of the side hole 16.

The connecting elbow 22 is connected to the spray water channel of the toilet seat for easy spraying and flushing.
[0041] Working principle and usage process of this utility model:
[0042] like Figure 5 As shown, when the toilet seat needs to be flushed with water, the electric pump 2 drives the centrifugal impeller 7 to rotate. Water enters the impeller chamber 3 from the inlet pipe 4 and enters the central chamber 702 from the middle of the centrifugal impeller 7. The centrifugal impeller 7 centrifuges the water in all directions. The water is first separated by the long blades 703 and then by the short blades 704. The water flow is separated in sequence, resulting in better separation and saving power. The water flow is discharged from the first outlet connecting short pipe 5 after centrifugation, enters the first outlet pipe 8 and impacts the piston plate 10 to move upward, exposing the outlet hole 12. The water flow enters the interface pipe 14 from the outlet hole 12 and sprays out through the flushing water channel of the toilet seat. It flows around and flushes along the inner wall of the toilet seat. The water in the limiting pipe 9 flows away, causing the water level to drop to below the outlet hole 12. The piston plate 10 then drops to below the outlet hole 12 and blocks the top of the first outlet pipe 8, which has a water-stopping function. This prevents sewage from flowing back into the first outlet pipe 8 and avoids sewage from damaging the electric pump 2.
[0043] like Figure 6 As shown, when the toilet seat is spraying water, the electric pump 2 drives the centrifugal impeller 7 to rotate in the opposite direction. The water in the impeller chamber 3 moves centrifugally in the opposite direction and flows out from the second water outlet connecting short pipe 6 and enters the interior of the second water outlet pipe 20, thereby impacting the sealing pipe 19 and causing the passage of the second water outlet pipe 20 to be opened. The water flows from the connecting bend pipe 22 into the spray water channel of the toilet seat and sprays and washes the inner wall of the toilet seat from top to bottom.
[0044] The electric pump 2 drives the centrifugal impeller 7 to change its rotation direction, thereby switching the water flow direction. This allows for selective water output between the first and second water outlet connecting pipes 5 and 6. When the water flows into the first water outlet pipe 8, it impacts the sealing pipe 19, causing the movable ring 18 and the sealing pipe 19 to move along the side short pipe 17 into the second water outlet pipe 20, thus blocking the water flow in the second water outlet pipe 20. When the water flows into the second water outlet pipe 20, it impacts the sealing pipe 19, allowing for free switching of water output and enabling switching of flushing for the toilet seat. Compared to existing water storage flushing and simultaneous flushing, this method offers greater flushing power and a cleaner wash.
[0045] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features.
