[0002] This utility model relates to the field of sanitary ware technology, and in particular to a flush toilet. Background Technology

[0003] Currently, the flushing mechanism of smart toilets generally dispenses cleaning water first from the inner edge nozzle (front inner edge cleaning), then dispenses cleaning water from the jet nozzle after the water from the inner edge nozzle is finished, and finally dispenses cleaning water again from the inner edge nozzle after the water from the jet nozzle is finished (rear inner edge cleaning).

[0004] Flushing toilets that use pressurized water for cleaning typically include a pump housed in a tank for storing the cleaning water, and separate discharge pipes that discharge the cleaning water from the pump to the inner edge of the bowl and the jet nozzle of the toilet body. To allow water to be discharged from either the inner edge or the jet nozzle, or simultaneously from both, a valve unit, such as a solenoid diaphragm valve, is installed midway down the discharge pipe from the pump. These flushing toilets generally use a large amount of water and have limited cleaning power for the bowl.

[0005] Therefore, how to improve the flushing capacity of smart toilets while saving water is a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved. Summary of the Invention
