Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of sanitary ware technology, and in particular to a foldable portable toilet bowl. [Background technology]

[0002] With the increase in outdoor activities (e.g., camping, hiking) and emergency needs (e.g., post-disaster relief, temporary shelters), portable toilets are widely used as they can solve temporary hygiene needs.

[0003] The main problem with traditional portable toilets is their lack of portability and foldability. To facilitate storage and portability, some products are designed with a foldable structure, but the degree of volume reduction after folding is limited, and they still occupy a large space when being carried, which causes inconvenience when going outdoors or transporting in an emergency.

[0004] Next, the toilet lids and seats of conventional portable toilets often use a simple hinged structure, which lacks a cushioning mechanism during the opening and closing process, making it easy for the lid plate to fall rapidly, causing collisions and generating noise. This not only affects the comfort of use, but also poses a safety risk, as it can pinch and injure the user's hand.

[0005] In addition, most conventional portable toilets must be used in combination with a storage bag, that is, the storage bag must be attached to the portable toilet when going to the toilet, which brings about certain inconveniences when used outdoors or in emergency situations.

[0006] Based on this, the present invention provides a foldable portable toilet bowl to solve the above-mentioned problems. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0019] The foldable portable toilet of the present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the schematic drawings, which illustrate preferred embodiments of the present invention, and it should be understood that those skilled in the art can modify the present invention described herein and still achieve the advantageous effects of the present invention. Therefore, the following description should be understood as being familiar to those skilled in the art, but should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0020] In the following paragraphs, the present invention will be described in more detail by referring to and listing the drawings. From the following description, the advantages and features of the present invention will be more apparent. It should be noted that the drawings are all very simplified and not to scale, and are only used to facilitate easy and clear description of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0021] As shown in FIG. 1, an embodiment of the present invention provides a foldable portable toilet, which includes a toilet cover assembly 1, a connecting member 2 and a toilet body 3.

[0022] In this embodiment, referring to Figure 2, the toilet lid assembly 1 includes a toilet lid 10 and a toilet seat 11, and a common hinge shaft 13 is connected to the toilet lid 10 and the toilet seat 11, and a rotary damper (not shown) is integrally installed on the hinge shaft 13 to realize slow up and down of the toilet lid 10 and the toilet seat 11.

[0023] A rotary damper is a mechanical device that adjusts the speed of a rotating component by providing controllable resistance. Its main function is to cushion the impact of rotary motion, suppress vibration, and ensure stable start-stop, thereby improving the user experience and extending the service life of the component.

[0024] Based on this, the toilet lid 10 and toilet seat 11 are connected to the hinge shaft 13 using a rotary damper, which allows the toilet lid 10 and toilet seat 11 to move up and down slowly when in use, effectively reducing noise generated during use and the risk of being pinched and injured, and improving user comfort.

[0025] The specific structure of the rotary damper and how it connects two mutually rotating members belong to the prior art, and therefore, the description thereof is omitted here.

[0026] Furthermore, the toilet lid 10 and the toilet seat 11 are injection molded using ABS plastic with antibacterial silver ion masterbatch added, which is lightweight and durable, and also has a certain antibacterial effect.

[0027] In this embodiment, the entire toilet lid assembly 1 can adopt a square structure as shown in Figure 2, or it can adopt an arc-shaped structure as shown in Figure 3 to meet the needs of different users.

[0028] In this embodiment, referring to FIG. 4, the connecting member 2 includes a locking seat 20, which has a U-shaped locking groove 200 for locking the side wall of the toilet body 3, and the locking seat 20 is connected to the hinge shaft 13.

[0029] The side wall of the toilet body 3 is engaged with the U-shaped engaging groove 200 to achieve the connection between the toilet lid assembly 1 and the toilet body 3 (shown in Figure 5), and optionally, anti-slip teeth 21 (shown in Figure 6) are installed in the U-shaped engaging groove 200 to improve the stability of the attachment between the toilet lid assembly 1 and the toilet body 3. When it is necessary to separate the toilet lid assembly 1 and the toilet body 3, all that is required is to pull the engaging seat 20 to separate the U-shaped engaging groove 200 from the side wall of the toilet body 3, which is a simple operation.

[0030] Furthermore, an insertion post 22 is attached to the engagement seat 20, and as shown in FIG. 7, an attachment hole 130 that matches the insertion post 22 is formed in the hinge shaft 13.

[0031] By providing the insertion posts 22 and the attachment locking holes 130, the connecting member 2 and the toilet lid assembly 1 can be detachably connected.

[0032] Specifically, an elastic sleeve can be attached inside the attachment locking hole 130, and when the attachment post 22 is inserted, the elastic sleeve tightly wraps around the attachment post 22, ensuring the stability of the connection between the connecting member 2 and the toilet lid assembly 1 and also ensuring the convenience of attachment and detachment.

[0033] In this embodiment, the insertion post 22 can also be combined with a magnetic structure to fit into the attachment hole 130. For example, magnets that can attract each other are installed on the end of the insertion post 22 and the end face of the attachment hole 130. When the insertion post 22 is inserted into the attachment hole 130, the magnet at the end of the insertion post 22 and the magnet at the end face of the attachment hole 130 will attract each other, ensuring a stable connection between the connecting member 2 and the toilet lid assembly 1.

[0034] The connecting member 2 is detachably attached to both the toilet lid assembly 1 and the toilet body 3, which effectively reduces the maintenance cost of the foldable portable toilet and also facilitates comprehensive and efficient cleaning of the foldable portable toilet.

[0035] In this embodiment, the toilet body 3 has a foldable structure, and when the toilet body 3 is fully unfolded, it has a cubic shape and a storage compartment (not shown) with a through-hole at only one end, as shown in Figure 8. The formation of the storage compartment allows the toilet to be temporarily used without relying on a storage bag, effectively improving convenience for users during use.

[0036] As shown in Figure 9, when the toilet body 3 is fully folded, one opposite side of the toilet body 3 shrinks inward, making the toilet body 1 relatively flat, and the volume is greatly optimized in the unfolded state. Even when the toilet lid assembly 1 is stacked on top of it, the volume remains ideal. In other words, the foldable portable toilet of this embodiment has a small overall occupation area after being folded, ensuring good portability and providing convenience for going outdoors or emergency transportation.

[0037] In this embodiment, referring to FIG. 10, the toilet body 3 includes a side panel 30 and a flushable fabric layer 31. There are four side panels 30, and the four side panels 30 are arranged two by two opposite each other. The two side panels 30 on one opposite side have folds (not shown). The flushable fabric layer 31 seals and covers the side panels 30, and closes one end of the toilet body 3.

[0038] Specifically, the side panels 30 are made of thick plastic, which provides the toilet body 3 with excellent load-bearing capacity and ensures that the toilet body 3 has a small volume after being folded.

[0039] The washable fabric layer 31 is made of a waterproof fabric, which ensures good waterproofness and durability of the toilet body 3, and makes the toilet body 3 "washable and quick-drying."

[0040] Preferably, the flushable fabric layer 31 and the edge of the side panel 30 are fused together by heat pressing, and a waterproof sealing structure 32 (for example, a waterproof sealant or waterproof caulking strip) is installed at the seam of the flushable fabric layer 31 to reduce the risk of leakage into the toilet body and improve the reliability and hygiene level of the product.

[0041] Optionally, the surface of the washable fabric layer 31 is coated with an antibacterial coating layer, which effectively inhibits the growth of common pathogens such as E. coli and Staphylococcus aureus, and decomposes odor molecules, thereby providing continuous and active hygiene protection throughout the product life cycle.

[0042] Furthermore, the toilet body 3 further includes a bottom plate 33 sealed and coated with a flushable fabric layer 31, and the bottom plate 33 is placed in the storage chamber and is used to abut against and contact the side wall of the closed end of the storage chamber.

[0043] After the side walls of the toilet body 3 are expanded, the bottom plate 33 is inserted into the storage chamber, and the bottom plate 33 abuts and contacts the side walls of the closed end of the storage chamber, improving the stability of the toilet body 3 during use. When it is necessary to fold the toilet body 3, the bottom plate 33 can be removed from the storage chamber, making operation easy.

[0044] The installation of the bottom plate 33 also makes it easy to temporarily clean the inside of the toilet body 3; for example, after a certain amount of solid dirt has accumulated inside the toilet body 3, the bottom plate 33 can simply be removed and cleaned separately.

[0045] In one preferred embodiment, a plurality of positioning blocks 12 are installed on both sides of the end face of the toilet seat 11 that is far from the toilet cover 10, and when the toilet body 3 is fully unfolded and the toilet seat 11 is fully lowered, the positioning blocks 12 come into contact with the side wall of the through-hole end of the storage chamber.

[0046] By providing the positioning block 12, it is easy to position and attach the toilet lid assembly 1 to the toilet body 3, and the stability of the toilet body 3 during use can be effectively improved.

[0047] Furthermore, referring to FIG. 12, there is a gap d between the positioning block 12 and the edge of the toilet seat 11, and the size of the gap d is equal to the thickness of the side wall of the toilet body 3. Thus, when the toilet seat 11 is fully lowered, the positioning block 12 combines with the edge of the toilet seat 11 to lock the side wall of the toilet body 3, further improving stability.

[0048] 11, in one alternative embodiment, at least one storage bag 34 is installed on the outer wall of the toilet body 3. The storage bag 34 can be used to store tissue paper, storage bags, and other items, which effectively improves the convenience of using the foldable portable toilet.

[0049] To sum up, the present invention has at least the following advantages over the prior art: (1) The foldable portable toilet of this invention has a toilet lid and a toilet seat connected to a hinge shaft using a rotary damper, which allows the toilet lid and the toilet seat to move up and down slowly when in use, effectively reducing noise and the risk of being pinched and injured during use, and improving user comfort. (2) The foldable portable toilet of the present invention has a toilet lid assembly that is detachably attached to the toilet body using a connecting member, and the toilet body is flat when folded, occupying a small overall area after folding, ensuring good portability and providing convenience for outdoor travel and emergency transportation. (3) When the foldable portable toilet of the present invention is unfolded, a storage chamber with a through-hole at only one end is formed inside, allowing the toilet to be used temporarily without relying on a storage bag, effectively improving the convenience of the user during use. Furthermore, the flushable fabric layer of the toilet body and the edge of the side panel are fused together by heat pressing, and combined with the installation of a waterproof sealing structure at the seam of the flushable fabric layer, this effectively reduces the risk of leakage in the toilet body and improves the reliability and hygiene level of the product.
