Preventing water seal failure in integrated bathroom fixtures

Abstract

A prefabricated bathroom unit designed to prevent water seal failure in its drainage system includes a drainage system, a water-using system, and a control device. The drainage system has at least one water trap. The water-using system has a water supply pipe and a water replenishment component connected to the water supply pipe. The control device, after a prolonged period of inactivity, controls the water replenishment component to allow water from the water supply pipe to flow into the water trap, maintaining the water level in the trap and preventing water seal failure. The water supply pipe can be a sink faucet inlet pipe, etc., and the drainage system can be a sink drain pipe, a toilet bowl, a floor drain, etc.

Claims

1. A prefabricated bathroom unit for preventing water seal failure of a drainage device, comprising: a drainage device having a water trap; a water-using device having a water pipe and a water supply component, the water pipe supplying water to the water-using device, the water supply component being disposed on the water pipe; and a control device connected to the water supply component, the control device controlling the water supply component after a long period of inactivity of the prefabricated bathroom unit, causing the water pipe to be supplied with water by the water supply component and flowing into the water trap of the drainage device.

2. The integrated bathroom as described in claim 1, which prevents the water seal of the drainage system from failing, wherein, The water pipe for this device is the inlet pipe of a handwashing sink faucet.

3. A complete bathroom unit for preventing water seal failure of drainage equipment as described in claim 1 or 2, wherein, The drainage system includes at least one of the following: a sink drain pipe, a toilet bowl, or a floor drain.

4. The integrated bathroom as described in claim 1, which prevents the water seal of the drainage system from failing, wherein, The overall bathroom area is divided into a dry area and a wet area, and the water supply equipment and the drainage equipment are located in the dry area and the wet area.

5. The integrated bathroom as described in claim 4, which prevents the water seal of the drainage system from failing, wherein, The integrated bathroom has a water-retaining strip that separates the dry area from the wet area. The water-retaining strip is formed with at least one water outlet that allows water to flow from one of the dry area and the wet area to the other of the dry area and the wet area.

6. The integrated bathroom as described in claim 4, which prevents the water seal of the drainage system from failing, wherein, The integrated bathroom has a floor that separates the dry area from the wet area, and the floor has a water inlet slope that slopes from the side without the water trap towards the side with the water trap.

7. The integrated bathroom as described in claim 1, which prevents the water seal of the drainage system from failing, wherein, The control device is located on one of the back panels of the integrated bathroom unit.
