Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of sanitary ware technology, and more particularly to a water outlet component and a toilet. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, all smart toilets are equipped with a flushing switching component. This component allows for switching the water flow between the brush head assembly and the jet head assembly. The brush head assembly provides a flushing water flow to the toilet bowl's surface, while the jet head assembly provides a jet of water to the surface. The flushing switching component is connected to the brush head assembly via piping. The flushing switching component is typically mounted in a mounting cavity on the side of the toilet bowl's surface using a bracket. The brush head assembly is usually fixed to the side wall of the mounting cavity closest to the surface.

[0003] During the manufacturing process, the toilet body shrinks and deforms, resulting in dimensional errors in the finished product. This causes the relative positions between the brush head assembly and the flushing switching assembly to change as the toilet body size varies. However, the length of the piping in the same batch is fixed. This may lead to the piping used to connect the flushing switching assembly and the brush head assembly being too short, resulting in problems such as insecure piping installation and poor sealing, which could cause leaks. Utility Model Content

[0004] This application provides a water outlet assembly and a toilet. The application uses a flexible hose with a bending and deformable part to connect the brush ring nozzle assembly and the flushing switching assembly respectively. The flexible hose can be adapted to toilet bodies of different sizes. The pipe end of the water outlet assembly connected by the flexible hose is firmly connected and has good sealing performance.

[0005] The specific technical solution of this application embodiment is as follows: A water outlet assembly is applied to a toilet, the toilet body including a bowl and a mounting cavity located on the side of the bowl, the cavity wall including a first side near the bowl and a second side away from the bowl, the water outlet assembly including: A brush ring nozzle assembly is disposed on the first side portion. The brush ring nozzle assembly is configured to provide brush ring water to the pot surface. The brush ring nozzle assembly includes a water inlet connection portion located in the mounting cavity. A flushing switching assembly is installed into the mounting cavity, and the position of the flushing switching assembly in the mounting cavity is adjustable. The flushing switching assembly includes a brush ring water supply connection portion; and A flexible hose, the two ends of which are respectively connected to the water inlet connection and the brush ring water supply connection, so as to deliver water from the brush ring water supply connection to the water inlet connection; the flexible hose includes a bent deformation section, and the flexible hose is configured to be deformable; The brush ring water supply connection and the water inlet connection are located at different heights, and the bending deformation part includes a pipe section protruding toward the brush ring water supply connection and / or the water inlet connection, so as to facilitate the deformation of the hose.

[0006] A water outlet assembly is applied to a toilet, the toilet body including a bowl and a mounting cavity located on the side of the bowl, the cavity wall including a first side near the bowl and a second side away from the bowl, the water outlet assembly including: A brush ring nozzle assembly is disposed on the first side portion. The brush ring nozzle assembly is configured to provide brush ring water to the pot surface. The brush ring nozzle assembly includes a water inlet connection portion located in the mounting cavity. A flushing switching assembly is installed into the mounting cavity, and the position of the flushing switching assembly in the mounting cavity is adjustable. The flushing switching assembly includes a brush ring water supply connection portion; and A flexible hose, the two ends of which are respectively connected to the water inlet connection and the brush ring water supply connection, so as to deliver water from the brush ring water supply connection to the water inlet connection; the flexible hose includes a bent deformation section, and the flexible hose is configured to be deformable; Both the water inlet connection and the brush ring water supply connection include a connected outlet pipe and an inlet pipe; the end of the inlet pipe of the water inlet connection and the end of the outlet pipe of the brush ring water supply connection are connected to form a first line; at least one of the inlet pipe of the water inlet connection and the outlet pipe of the brush ring water supply connection is configured to extend along a direction forming a set non-zero angle with the first line, so that the hose forms the bent deformation portion.

[0007] A toilet, comprising: The toilet body includes a pot surface and a mounting cavity located on the side of the pot surface. The cavity wall of the mounting cavity includes a first side portion close to the pot surface and a second side portion away from the pot surface. As described in the above embodiments, the flushing switching component of the water outlet component is installed in the mounting cavity; along the direction from the first side to the second side, the brush ring nozzle component and the flushing switching component of the water outlet component are sequentially spaced apart.

[0008] The technical advantages of the water outlet component provided in this application embodiment are as follows: During the manufacturing process, toilet bowls may deform, resulting in dimensions that are too large or too small. This affects the relative positions of the water inlet and brush ring water supply connections. The water outlet assembly provided in this application includes a flexible hose connecting the water inlet and brush ring water supply connections, comprising a bent deformation portion. This flexible hose is designed to deform, allowing it to adapt to the changing relative positions of the water inlet and brush ring water supply connections. This ensures that both ends of the hose are securely connected to these connections, preventing leaks due to poor end sealing. Therefore, the flexible hose of this application's water outlet assembly can accommodate toilet bowls of different sizes.

[0009] It is worth noting that during the manufacturing process of the toilet body, the size of the mounting cavity may be too small. This can result in insufficient space after the flushing switching component is installed, leaving insufficient room to accommodate the electronic seat base. This application addresses this issue by making the position of the flushing switching component within the mounting cavity adjustable. This allows the flushing switching component to be moved and repositioned when the electronic seat base is installed, creating more space for the electronic seat base to be properly installed.

[0013] This application describes several embodiments, but these descriptions are exemplary and not restrictive, and it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that many more embodiments and implementations are possible within the scope of the embodiments described herein. The embodiments, features, and elements disclosed in this application can also be combined with any conventional features or elements to form unique inventive solutions.

[0014] Please refer to the instruction manual appendix. Figures 1 to 16 The diagram shows the structure of the water outlet component and toilet according to an embodiment of this application. Figure 3 A schematic diagram of the structure of a water outlet component according to an embodiment of this application is shown. Figure 6 A schematic diagram of the water outlet assembly according to another embodiment of this application is shown. Figure 1 As shown, this application provides a water outlet assembly, including a brush ring nozzle assembly 2, a flushing switching assembly 3, and a hose 1. This water outlet assembly is applied to a toilet, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the toilet body 4 includes a bowl-shaped surface 41 and a mounting cavity 42 located on the side of the bowl-shaped surface 41. The cavity wall of the mounting cavity 42 includes a first side portion 421 close to the bowl-shaped surface 41 and a second side portion 422 away from the bowl-shaped surface 41. Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, the brush ring nozzle assembly 2 is inserted through the first side portion 421. The brush ring nozzle assembly 2 is configured to provide brush ring water to the pot surface 41. The brush ring nozzle assembly 2 includes a water inlet connection portion 21 located within the mounting cavity 42. The flushing switching assembly 3 is installed into the mounting cavity 42, and the position of the flushing switching assembly 3 within the mounting cavity 42 is adjustable. The flushing switching assembly 3 includes a brush ring water supply connection portion 31. Figure 3 As shown, the two ends of the hose 1 are respectively connected to the water inlet connection 21 and the brush ring water supply connection 31, so as to deliver water from the brush ring water supply connection 31 to the water inlet connection 21. The hose 1 includes a bent deformation portion 11, and the hose 1 is configured to be deformable. Figure 3 As shown, the brush ring water supply connection 31 and the water inlet connection 21 are located at different heights. The bending deformation part 11 includes a pipe section protruding toward the brush ring water supply connection 31 and / or the water inlet connection 21, so that the hose 1 can be deformed.

[0015] Specifically, the brush ring nozzle assembly 2 of this application may include the following functional structures: the brush ring nozzle assembly 2 may be configured to have conventional functions, that is, the brush ring nozzle assembly 2 can directly spray brush ring water onto the pot surface 41; the brush ring nozzle assembly 2 may also be configured to include a spray head (not shown in the figure) and a mixing component (not shown in the figure), the mixing component includes a connecting part connecting the detergent module and / or the microbubble module, or further includes a structural component that generates the Venturi effect, that is, the brush ring nozzle assembly 2 can provide water with multiple functions to the pot surface 41.

[0016] The toilet body 4 in this embodiment shrinks and deforms during the firing process, resulting in dimensional errors in the finished toilet body 4. The dimensions of the mounting cavity 42 of the same model of toilet body 4 fluctuate, causing the relative position between the brush head assembly 2 and the flushing switching assembly 3 to change with the size of the mounting cavity 42. Furthermore, for different models of toilets, the installation position of the brush head assembly 2 on the first side 421 of the mounting cavity 42 of the toilet body 4 is also different, resulting in a constantly changing relative position between the brush head assembly 2 and the flushing switching assembly 3. Existing technology uses pipes of the same model and length to connect the brush head assembly 2 and the flushing switching assembly 3, which can lead to situations where the pipe is too short, resulting in a weak connection at the pipe end, poor sealing at the pipe end, and even leakage.

[0017] The water outlet assembly provided in this application embodiment includes a flexible hose 1 for connecting the water inlet connection 21 and the brush ring water supply connection 31, which includes a bent deformation portion 11, and the hose 1 is configured to be deformable, such as... Figure 3The bending deformation section 11 shown includes a pipe segment protruding towards the brush ring water supply connection section 31 and / or the water inlet connection section 21. When the relative position between the brush ring nozzle assembly 2 and the flushing switching assembly 3 changes, especially when the brush ring water supply connection section 31 and the water inlet connection section 21 are at different heights, the deformation of the bending deformation section 11 protruding towards the brush ring water supply connection section 31 and / or the water inlet connection section 21 allows the length of the connecting line between the two ends of the hose 1 to change. This allows the hose 1 to adapt to the relative position changes of the brush ring water supply connection section 31 and the water inlet connection section 21, ensuring that both ends of the hose 1 are securely connected to the brush ring water supply connection section 31 and the water inlet connection section 21, preventing leakage due to poor sealing at the ends of the hose 1. Therefore, the hose 1 of the water outlet assembly of this application can deform to adapt to toilet bodies 4 of different sizes.

[0018] It is worth noting that during the firing process of the toilet body 4, the size of the mounting cavity 42 may be too small. This could result in insufficient space after the flushing switching component 3 is installed in the mounting cavity 42, making it impossible to accommodate part of the electronic seat base structure. This application addresses this issue by making the position of the flushing switching component 3 within the mounting cavity 42 adjustable. This allows the flushing switching component 3 to be moved and adjusted when the electronic seat base is installed in the mounting cavity 42, thus making room for the electronic seat base structure to be smoothly installed.

[0019] In one exemplary embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, the hose 1 includes a Z-shaped tube, one end of which is connected to the water inlet connection 21, and the other end of which is connected to the brush ring water supply connection 31.

[0020] Specifically, the hose 1 includes a Z-shaped tube, with two bent and deformed portions 11 of the Z-shaped tube facing the brush ring water supply connection portion 31 and the water inlet connection portion 21, respectively. The two bent and deformed portions 11 of the Z-shaped tube undergo large deformation when the Z-shaped tube deforms, thereby adapting to the relative position changes of the brush ring water supply connection portion 31 and the water inlet connection portion 21.

[0021] Optionally, the hose 1 of this application can be formed by connecting multiple Z-shaped tubes end to end, thus the deformation of the hose 1 is relatively large.

[0022] In one exemplary embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, the Z-shaped pipe includes a first pipe section 12 connected to the water inlet connection 21 and a second pipe section 13 connected to the brush ring water supply connection 31. By compressing or stretching the Z-shaped pipe, the relative distance H between the first pipe section 12 and the second pipe section 13 can be changed to adapt to the relative position changes of the brush ring water supply connection 31 and the water inlet connection 21.

[0023] Specifically, the installation position of the brush ring nozzle assembly 2 in different models of toilet body 4 may change, resulting in a change in the relative position of the brush ring water supply connection 31 and the water inlet connection 21. In this embodiment, the relative position of the brush ring water supply connection 31 and the water inlet connection 21 can be adapted by compressing or stretching the Z-shaped tube. Figure 3 In the embodiment shown, the extension direction of the water inlet connection 21 is the same as the extension direction of the first pipe section 12, and the extension direction of the brush ring water supply connection 31 is the same as the extension direction of the second pipe section 13.

[0024] This application also provides a water outlet component, such as... Figures 4 to 8 As shown, this water outlet assembly is used in a toilet, such as... Figure 4 The toilet body 4 shown includes a bowl 41 and a mounting cavity 42 located on the side of the bowl 41. The cavity wall of the mounting cavity 42 includes a first side portion 421 near the bowl 41 and a second side portion 422 away from the bowl 41. The water outlet assembly includes a brush ring nozzle assembly 2, a flushing switching assembly 3, and a hose 1. Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the brush ring nozzle assembly 2 is inserted through the first side portion 421. The brush ring nozzle assembly 2 is configured to provide brush ring water to the pot surface 41. The brush ring nozzle assembly 2 includes a water inlet connection portion 21 located within the mounting cavity 42. Figure 5 As shown, the flushing switching assembly 3 is installed into the mounting cavity 42, and its position within the cavity 42 is adjustable. The flushing switching assembly 3 includes a brush ring water supply connection 31. The two ends of the hose 1 are respectively connected to the water inlet connection 21 and the brush ring water supply connection 31 to supply water from the brush ring water supply connection 31 to the water inlet connection 21. The hose 1 includes a bent deformation portion 11, and is configured to deform.

[0025] Among them, such as Figure 6 As shown, the water inlet connection 21 includes a connected water outlet pipe 21-1 and a connected water inlet pipe 21-2, and the brush ring water supply connection 31 includes a connected water outlet pipe 31-1 and a connected water inlet pipe 31-2. The end of the water inlet pipe 21-2 of the water inlet connection 21 and the end of the water outlet pipe 31-1 of the brush ring water supply connection 31 are connected to form a first connecting line L. At least one of the water inlet pipe 21-2 of the water inlet connection 21 and the water outlet pipe 31-1 of the brush ring water supply connection 31 is configured to extend along a direction forming a set non-zero angle with the first connecting line L, so that the hose 1 forms a bent deformation portion 11.

[0026] Specifically, Figure 6 The two arrows in the diagram indicate the extension direction of the inlet pipe 21-2 of the inlet connection 21 and the extension direction of the outlet pipe 31-1 of the brush ring water supply connection 31, respectively. Figure 6 In the figure, L represents the end of the water inlet pipe 21-2 of the water inlet connection 21 and the end of the water outlet pipe 31-1 of the brush ring water supply connection 31. The line connecting these two ends is the first connection line. Figure 6 It is clearly shown that the first connecting line L extends in a different direction than the two arrows. If the first connecting line L extends in the same direction as the two arrows, then the hose 1 can be designed as a straight pipe. However, since the first connecting line L extends in a different direction than at least one arrow, the hose 1 needs to be constructed with a bending deformation section 11.

[0027] The mounting cavity 42 of the toilet body 4 may deform during the firing process. In particular, the relative distance between the first side 421 and the second side 422 of the toilet body 4 along the horizontal direction will change, resulting in an unpredictable relative position between the water inlet connection 21 and the brush ring water supply connection 31.

[0028] In this embodiment of the application, at least one of the hose 1 of the water outlet assembly, the water inlet pipe 21-2 of the water inlet connection 21, and the water outlet pipe 31-1 of the brush ring water supply connection 31 is configured to extend along a direction that forms a certain angle (the value of the angle is non-zero) with the first connecting line L. In this way, the hose 1 can form a bending deformation part 11, which can deform so that the relative distance between the two ends of the hose 1 can be adjusted and changed to adapt to the relative position change between the water inlet connection 21 and the brush ring water supply connection 31, ensuring that the two ends of the hose 1 of the water outlet assembly can be firmly sealed and connected, and there will be no water leakage due to the loose connection of the pipeline.

[0029] Furthermore, this application sets the position of the flushing switching component 3 in the mounting cavity 42 to be adjustable, so that when the electronic cover base is installed into the mounting cavity 42, the flushing switching component 3 can be moved and changed, making room for the electronic cover base to be smoothly installed into the mounting cavity 42.

[0030] In one exemplary embodiment, such as Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the hose 1 includes a third pipe section 14 and a fourth pipe section 15. The third pipe section 14 and the fourth pipe section 15 together form a first groove 16 with the opening facing upward. The third pipe section 14 is connected to the water inlet pipe 21-2 of the water inlet connection part 21, and the fourth pipe section 15 is connected to the water outlet pipe 31-1 of the brush ring water supply connection part 31.

[0031] Specifically, the hose 1 is constructed such that the third pipe section 14 and the fourth pipe section 15 enclose a first groove 16 with the opening facing upwards. Thus, the connection between the third pipe section 14 and the fourth pipe section 15 forms a bending deformation part 11, which is easy to deform in order to adapt to the relative position change between the water inlet connection part 21 and the brush ring water supply connection part 31.

[0032] Furthermore, during the water flow transmission process, the bending structure of the bending deformation part 11 of the hose 1 in this application can slow down the water flow speed and reduce the impact force when the water flow is sprayed out from the brush ring nozzle assembly 2, so that the water flow is sprayed more gently from the spray nozzle of the brush ring nozzle assembly 2 onto the pot surface 41, reducing the occurrence of water splashing on the pot surface 41.

[0033] In one exemplary embodiment, such as Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the water inlet connection 21 and the third pipe section 14 are connected by clamps, and the brush ring water supply connection 31 and the fourth pipe section 15 are connected by clamps.

[0034] Specifically, the two ends of the hose 1 are clamped together with the water inlet connection 21 and the brush ring water supply connection 31, so that the end connection of the hose 1 is firm and stable, and it is not easy to loosen or leak.

[0035] In one exemplary embodiment, such as Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the water inlet connection 21 is L-shaped, the third pipe section 14 is shorter than the fourth pipe section 15, and the part of the fourth pipe section 15 near the brush ring water supply connection 31 bends away from the opening of the first groove 16. The angle α between the extension directions of the water outlet pipe 31-1 and the water inlet pipe 31-2 of the brush ring water supply connection 31 is an obtuse angle.

[0036] Specifically, the toilet body 4, after firing, forms a finished product with dimensional errors. This causes the relative distance between the first side 421 and the second side 422 of the toilet body 4 in the horizontal direction to potentially increase or decrease, thereby causing the relative distance between the water inlet connection 21 and the brush ring water supply connection 31 to also vary. For example... Figure 8 As shown in the middle diagram, squeezing the third pipe section 14 and the fourth pipe section 15 together can accommodate situations where the relative distance between the water inlet connection 21 and the brush ring water supply connection 31 is too small. Figure 8 As shown in the diagram on the right, stretching the fourth pipe section 15 outward relative to the third pipe section can accommodate situations where the relative distance between the water inlet connection 21 and the brush ring water supply connection 31 is too large. If the relative distance between the first side 421 and the second side 422 in the horizontal direction is at an intermediate value, that is, the relative distance between the water inlet connection 21 and the brush ring water supply connection 31 is at an intermediate value, the hose 1 can be configured as follows: Figure 8 The diagram on the left shows the external shape.

[0037] This application provides a toilet, such as... Figure 9As shown, the toilet includes a toilet body 4 and the water outlet assembly described in any of the exemplary embodiments above. The toilet body 4 includes a bowl 41 and a mounting cavity 42 located on the side of the bowl 41. The cavity wall of the mounting cavity 42 includes a first side portion 421 near the bowl 41 and a second side portion 422 away from the bowl 41. Figure 5 As shown, the flushing switching component 3 of the water outlet assembly is installed into the mounting cavity 42. Along the direction from the first side 421 to the second side 422, the brush ring nozzle assembly 2 and the flushing switching component 3 of the water outlet assembly are distributed sequentially at intervals.

[0038] Specifically, the toilet in this application embodiment includes the water outlet component as described in any of the exemplary embodiments above, and therefore has the structural features and advantages of the water outlet component as described in any of the exemplary embodiments above, which will not be repeated here.

[0039] In one exemplary embodiment, such as Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, the toilet in this embodiment of the application also includes a bracket 5. The bracket 5 includes a first end 51 and a second end 52 disposed opposite to each other. The first end 51 is detachably connected to a first side portion 421, and the second end 52 overlaps with a second side portion 422, so that the bracket 5 can swing about the first end 51 as a fulcrum under the drive of an external force. The bracket 5 also includes a mounting portion 53 connecting the first end 51 and the second end 52. The mounting portion 53 is configured to support and fix the flushing switching assembly 3 of the water outlet assembly.

[0040] Specifically, the support 5 can swing around the first end 51 as a fulcrum under the drive of an external force. Figure 9 The arrow in the image indicates the swing direction of the bracket 5, so that the positions of the bracket 5 and the flushing switching assembly 3 fixed to the bracket 5 in the mounting cavity 42 can be adjusted, thereby making room for other functional components to be smoothly installed into the mounting cavity 42.

[0041] Furthermore, since the dimensions of the mounting cavity 42 may have errors after the toilet body 4 is fired, the second end 52 of the bracket 5 is designed as an overlapping, movable connection. This allows the second end 52 and the second side 422 to slide relative to each other, preventing the bracket 5 from being squeezed and generating stress if the mounting cavity 42 is too small. The overlapping connection between the second end 52 and the second side 422 of the bracket 5 provides flexible compensation for fluctuations in the installation dimensions of multiple components within the mounting cavity 42.

[0042] In one exemplary embodiment, such as Figures 10 to 12As shown, the first end portion 51 is provided with a connecting portion, and the first side portion 421 is provided with a connecting mating portion. The connecting mating portion can be detachably connected to the connecting portion so that the first end portion 51 and the first side portion 421 can be detachably connected. The connecting portion is configured to be movable relative to the connecting mating portion so as to adjust the connection position between the first end portion 51 and the first side portion 421.

[0043] Specifically, such as Figure 11 and Figure 12 In the illustrated embodiment, the connecting portion and the connecting mating portion are detachably connected by a fastener 6. The connecting mating portion includes a positioning hole 4211, and the connecting portion includes a plurality of spaced-apart connecting holes 511 adapted to the fastener 6. By moving the connecting portion relative to the positioning hole 4211, any one of the connecting holes 511 can be aligned with the positioning hole 4211, allowing the fastener 6 to pass through the positioning hole 4211 and the connecting hole 511 to connect the first end portion 51 and the first side portion 421.

[0044] It is understood that the connecting part and the connecting mating part of this application are not limited to Figure 12 The structural form shown can also be configured into other structural types, all of which are within the protection scope of this application.

[0045] In one exemplary embodiment, such as Figure 13 As shown, the bracket 5 has a second groove 54 with the opening facing upward. The first end 51 and the second end 52 are respectively formed by the ends of the two groove walls of the second groove 54 extending in opposite directions, such that the first end 51 and the second end 52 form the edge of the second groove 54.

[0046] like Figure 11 As shown, the first side portion 421 includes a downwardly disposed first wall surface 4212, the upper surface of the first end portion 51 abuts against the first wall surface 4212, and the first end portion 51 is detachably connected to the first wall surface 4212 by a fastener 6.

[0047] The second side portion 422 includes an upwardly facing second wall surface 4221, and the lower surface of the second end portion 52 overlaps with the second wall surface 4221.

[0048] Specifically, the first end 51 is installed on the downward-facing first wall surface 4212 of the first side 421, and the second end 52 overlaps the upper surface of the second side 422. This connection structure is simple and has a neat appearance.

[0049] In one exemplary embodiment, such as Figures 14 to 16 As shown, the toilet of this application also includes an electronic lid base 7, which includes a downwardly oriented protrusion 71. The protrusion 71 is installed in the mounting cavity 42 of the toilet body 4, and the bracket 5 swings to avoid the protrusion 71.

[0050] Specifically, as smart toilets integrate more and more modular functions, in order to allow more space inside the electronic seat for structural layout, the electronic seat base 7 is usually designed with a recessed feature to form a protrusion 71, such as... Figure 15 As shown. Figure 14 The central C region is the mounting position of the protrusion 71 of the electronic seat base 7 in the mounting cavity 42 of the toilet body 4.

[0051] like Figure 15 and Figure 16 As shown, one end of the bracket 5 is movably connected to the toilet body 4, and the connection position between the bracket 5 and the toilet body 4 can be adjusted. This structure also facilitates the installation of the electronic seat base 7. When the electronic seat base 7 is lowered, one side of the protrusion 71 is adjacent to the bracket 5, and the other side of the protrusion 71 is adjacent to the water tank. The assembly space of the protrusion 71 within the mounting cavity 71 is relatively compact. If the space area C used to install the protrusion 71 is too small, the bracket 5 can be moved along... Figure 14 The connection position between the first end 51 and the first side 421 of the bracket 5 can also be adjusted as the arrow direction is indicated, so as to make room for the protrusion 71 to be smoothly inserted into the mounting cavity 42.

[0052] As can be seen, the installation method of the bracket 5 in this application can be adapted to the protrusion 71 of the electronic seat base 7 of various heights, thereby improving the compatibility of the toilet body 4.
