Abstract (en)
A water-saving toilet includes a two-stage flush button (20), a water-storing area (10) and a drain way (11) formed in the interior of a toilet bawl (1) and a valve control device (3) positioned in the bawl (1) and consisting of a valve (30), a valve cap (31), a drive rod (32), and an operating rod (33). The valve (30) is positioned in water-storing area (10), having a passageway (12), with the valve cap (31) deposited on the valve (30) to close and open the valve (30). A push rod (310) is connected under the valve cap (31), extending in the valve (30). In using, first, pressing the operating rod (33) pushes up the valve cap (31) to open the valve (30) so urine with water remaining in the water-storing area (10) flows into the drain way (11). Then press the flush button (20) for a low volume of water to be flushed out in the bawl (1). <IMAGE>
