Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of sanitary equipment, and more particularly, to an integrated toilet.

BACKGROUND

[0002] Existing toilets in the market are generally divided into a squatting toilet, a sitting toilet and a urinal. After a user uses the squatting toilet for a too long time, legs of the user may be paralyzed, and when the user uses the squatting toilet, blood flows in the legs may be blocked easily, so that pressures of cerebral vessels can be increased, which easily leads to cerebral hemorrhage. When the user uses the squatting toilet for a too long time, blood flows in brain of the user may be suddenly decreased to cause dizziness. Furthermore, when the user squats too hard, anal fissure and anal prolapse may also occur.

[0003] As for the toilet in the existing technology, a contact surface between a human body and the toilet is in a horizontal state, which leads to a low intra-abdominal pressure during defecation, thus easily leading to poor defecation. Moreover, arms and a back of a user are prone to paralysis after too long defecation, thus enhancing feelings of tiredness and fatigue of the user when using the toilet.

[0021] Referring to FIG. 1 to FIG. 5, an integrated toilet according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises a base 1, a main body 2 rotatably mounted on the base 1, a flushing mechanism 3 and a stool 4.

[0022] Specifically, the main body 2 comprises a discharge pipe 21, and a urinal cavity 22 and a toilet cavity 23 which are in communication with the discharge pipe 21, wherein the discharge pipe 21 extends downwardly and penetrates through the base 1. The flushing mechanism 3 is arranged in the toilet cavity 23. The stool 4 is arranged in the toilet cavity 23 and comprises a thigh contact part 41 and a back rest part 42 connected with the thigh contact part 41, wherein a through hole is arranged in a middle of a joint between the thigh contact part 41 and the back rest part 42, so as to ensure that excrement can smoothly enter the toilet cavity 23 and then be discharged from the discharge pipe 21. Further, an angle of 15° to 75° is formed between the thigh contact part 41 and the back rest part 42.

[0023] The integrated toilet according to the embodiment of the present invention comprises the base 1 and the main body 2 rotatably mounted on the base 1, wherein the main body 2 comprises the discharge pipe 21, and the urinal cavity 22 and the toilet cavity 23 which are in communication with the discharge pipe 21, a urinal and a toilet are integrated as a whole, thus realizing functional classification, and when used in a public restroom, the integrated toilet does not need to be additionally provided with the urinal, thus greatly reducing an investment cost. In addition, the stool 4 is arranged in the toilet cavity 23, the stool 4 comprises the thigh contact part 41 and the back rest part 42 connected with the thigh contact part 41, and the angle of 15° to 75° is formed between the thigh contact part 41 and the back rest part 42, so that when a user sits on the stool 4, an angle is formed between thighs and an upper half of body, a puborectalis muscle can be in a relaxed state, and an abdominal pressure and an anorectal angle can be increased, which is beneficial for promoting the smooth defecation of the user, thereby effectively reducing the occurrence of hemorrhoids caused by poor defecation.

[0024] In some embodiments of the present invention, with reference to FIG. 5, upper edges of the thigh contact part 41 and the back rest part 42 of the stool 4 are respectively folded outwardly to form a curved surface, with a streamlined longitudinal section. By such arrangement, all contact surfaces of the thigh contact part 41 and the back rest part 42 with thighs and a back of a human body are kept smooth, thus improving a comfort level of the user after sitting on the stool 4.

[0025] In some embodiments of the present invention, directions of openings of the urinal cavity 22 and the toilet cavity 23 are symmetrical to each other and both inclined to a horizontal plane. By such arrangement, the components can be more compact, so that an occupied area of the integrated toilet can be reduced, and the integrated toilet may also be applied in a small space. More specifically, edges of the openings of the urinal cavity 22 and the toilet cavity 23 are respectively folded outwardly to form an eave edge, and a transition area between the eave edge and the opening is set as a cambered surface. The eave edges may be used as handrails, and when using the toilet, the user put both hands on the eave edges to transfer pressures of multiple parts of body, such as buttocks, so as to effectively reduce the fatigue of the user using the toilet, and be less prone to symptoms of paralysis.

[0026] In some embodiments of the present invention, a rotating mechanism 5 is arranged between the main body 2 and the base 1, the rotating mechanism 5 comprises a fixed member connected with the base 1, a rotating member fixed with the main body 2 and a power device 51 for driving the rotating member to rotate, and the rotating member is connected with the fixed member through a shaft. By turning on the power device 51, the rotating member rotates around the fixed member, so as to drive the main body 2 to rotate, and automatically realize relative rotation between the main body 2 and the base 1, thus being simple to operate and avoiding waste of manpower. In some specific embodiments, the power device 51 is a servo motor.

[0027] The integrated toilet according to some embodiments of the present invention further comprises a footboard mechanism 6, wherein the footboard mechanism 6 comprises at least one footboard 61 connected with the base 1. Further, in order to better adapt to use of users with different heights and allow the users to adjust a height of the footboard 61 according to their different individual requirements, in some embodiments, a lifting mechanism is arranged between each footboard 61 and the base 1. Specifically, each lifting mechanism respectively comprises at least one electric push rod 7. It should be noted that in other specific embodiments, the electric push rod 7 may be replaced by other telescopic devices, such as a pneumatic rod. As shown in FIG. 2, in the specific embodiment, one footboard 61 is provided, and the footboard 61 comprises a footboard part and a retraction part. The base 1 is provided with a cavity for the retraction part to insert, the lifting mechanism is two electric push rods 7, and the two electric push rods 7 are respectively located on two sides below the footboard 61. During assembling, cylinder bodies of the electric push rods 7 are fixed with the base 1, and movable rods of the electric push rods are connected onto a lower surface of the footboard part or the retraction part.

[0028] More specifically, in order to make the users automatically control the integrated toilet, the power device 51, which is namely the servo motor, and the electric push rods 7 are respectively connected with one control circuit board 8 through electric wires, and the control circuit board 8 is mounted on the base 1. Further, the control circuit board 8 is in signal communication with one separate controller, and the separate controller is a remote controller for the users to operate and control the integrated toilet.

[0029] In some embodiments of the present invention, in order to improve an overall aesthetic appearance and avoid exposure of the main body 2, a housing 9 is sleeved outside the main body 2, and the housing 9 and the base 1 are separated from each other, so as to ensure that when the main body 2 rotates around the base 1, the housing 9 can rotate accordingly, without hindering the rotation of the main body 2. More specifically, a cover plate 11 of the base 1 is mounted below the base 1, so as to ensure that the control circuit board 8 located in the base 1 is not exposed to the outside, thereby effectively avoiding threats from the outside.

[0030] Certainly, the design of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Those skilled in the art may further make various equivalent modifications or substitutions without violating the spirit of the present invention, and these equivalent modifications or substitutions are all included in the scope defined by the claims of the present application.
