Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of toilet accessories technology, and in particular to a safety grab bar for a smart toilet. Background Technology

[0002] Most toilet grab bars use a floor-mounted support structure. During use, the support frame is installed or placed around the ceramic body of the toilet. While suitable for most toilets, this type of grab bar has the problems of taking up a lot of space and being difficult to store and clean. Therefore, some modular toilet grab bars have appeared on the market. These are installed directly onto the ceramic body of the toilet via a mounting base, which not only takes up less space but also has the advantage of easy storage. However, currently, there are very few styles of toilet grab bars on the market, especially those for smart toilets, leaving consumers with very few purchasing options. Furthermore, existing toilet grab bars, because they are installed directly on the smooth surface of the toilet, are prone to sliding and wobbling during use. Additionally, smart toilets often have overflow outlets, and existing toilet grab bars often obstruct these outlets, making it impossible to install the toilet lid or related accessories. Therefore, this utility model provides a grab bar structure adapted for smart toilets, which can solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0003] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model proposes a handrail structure that is compatible with smart toilets and has high safety.

[0004] A safety grab bar for a smart toilet includes a support base and a grab bar assembly, wherein, The support base is made of a metal plate and includes a support section and mounting ears. The center of the support section is recessed downwards to form a recessed clearance that fits the overflow outlet of the toilet, allowing it to conform to the overflow outlet of the smart toilet during installation. The support section also has fixing holes on both sides of the recessed clearance, allowing the support base to be secured to the toilet with screws. There are two mounting ears, located at both ends of the support section, which are bent downwards to provide mounting positions for the grab handle assembly.

[0005] The handrail assembly includes a mounting base, a handrail, and a housing. The mounting base is U-shaped and has two opposing side plates with their openings facing upwards. One of the side plates is fixed to a mounting lug by screws. The mounting end of the handrail has a shaft hole, into which the mounting end of the handrail is inserted and swayed by bolts and nuts, allowing it to switch states as needed. Two limiting rods are provided between the two side plates, located on either side of the mounting end of the handrail. The handrail is positioned in a working state and a stowed state by abutting against the two limiting rods.

[0006] The housing is fitted around the mounting ends of the mounting ears and armrests.

[0007] The safety grab bar for smart toilets provided by this utility model, by setting a recessed clearance on the support base, can, on the one hand, avoid obstructing the top of the overflow port and prevent the tank lid or other parts protruding towards the overflow hole from being unable to be installed, thus improving the adaptability of the toilet grab bar. On the other hand, the recessed clearance can fit against the overflow port of the smart toilet during installation, thereby increasing the contact area and contact direction between the support base and the top surface of the toilet, which can limit the sliding and twisting of the support base on the toilet, and also reduce the shear force on the screws that lock the support base, reducing the possibility of screw breakage or screw hole damage, thereby improving the safety of the grab bar.

[0008] Preferably, the fixing hole is a round hole or a strip hole, which can be selected according to actual needs, providing users with more options.

[0010] Preferably, the side plate near the mounting ear has a hexagonal hole, and the nut is stepped, including a nut body and a limiting step. The nut body is inserted into the hexagonal hole of the side plate, and the limiting step fits against the outer side of the side plate. The mounting ear has a relief opening to accommodate the limiting step. During assembly, the nut can be inserted first, and when tightening the bolt, there is no need to use other tools to hold the nut, which improves the convenience of installation.

[0011] Preferably, to provide sufficient contact area between the limiting rod and the handrail and prevent the handrail from easily bending or breaking, the limiting rod has a rectangular cross-section, forming surface contact when the handrail abuts against the limiting rod. Correspondingly, the two side plates also have corresponding rectangular holes, and the two ends of the limiting rod are respectively inserted into the corresponding rectangular holes of the two side plates.

[0012] Preferably, the limiting rod and the side plate are fixed by welding, which ensures a secure installation and prevents them from suddenly falling off and posing a risk of injury to the user.

[0013] Preferably, to prevent the handrail from wobbling, both ends of the handrail's shaft hole are stepped holes, and bearings and stepped washers are installed respectively, so that the handrail is tightly installed, does not wobble, and has a good texture.

[0014] Preferably, the gasket is made of soft rubber, and the portion outside the shaft hole is clamped by the side plate and the end of the shaft hole, which can prevent the handrail from swaying or moving left and right along the bolt axis.

[0015] Preferably, the housing is circular and has an upward-facing clearance opening on its periphery. The handrail extends through the clearance opening, and the mounting end of the handrail has an arc-shaped shielding piece that covers the clearance opening on its periphery.

[0016] Preferably, to further improve the installation stability of the support base, the safety grab bar for the smart toilet also includes a clamping component. The clamping component includes a screw and a rubber head. One end of the screw has a slotted groove, and the other end is fixed to the rubber head. The mounting ears have screw holes, and there are two clamping components, which are respectively installed on the screw holes of the two mounting ears, with the two rubber heads facing each other. After installation, the two rubber heads press against the side of the toilet, thereby further locking the support base. In addition, this also prevents the mounting ears from bending downwards during use, reducing the possibility of the grab bar expanding to both sides during use.

[0017] As can be seen from the above description of this utility model, this utility model has the following beneficial effects: The safety grab bar for smart toilets provided by this utility model can avoid blocking the top of the overflow port by setting a recessed clearance on the support base, and can prevent the tank cover or other parts protruding towards the overflow hole from being unable to be installed, thus improving the adaptability of the toilet grab bar. The recessed clearance provided by this utility model can fit the overflow outlet of the smart toilet during installation, thereby increasing the contact area and contact direction between the support base and the top surface of the toilet. This can limit the sliding and twisting of the support base on the toilet, improve the stability of the handrail during use, and also reduce the shear force on the screw that locks the support base, reducing the possibility of the screw breaking or the screw hole breaking, thereby improving the safety of the handrail. The side plate near the mounting lug has a hexagonal hole, and the nut is stepped, so that when tightening the bolt, there is no need to use other tools to hold the nut, which improves the convenience of installation; The handrail's shaft hole is equipped with a bearing and a stepped gasket, which makes the handrail installation tight, preventing wobbling or axial movement, and giving it a good feel. The clamping element is installed and presses against the side of the toilet to further lock the support seat. In addition, it can also prevent the mounting ears from bending downwards during use, thus reducing the possibility of the grab handle expanding to both sides during use. Attached Figure Description
