It should be noted that the target water temperature of the hot water for flushing and the target water temperature of the hot water for heating the seat ring of the intelligent toilet 20 are the same, and may be set by using one operation button on the common operation interface.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the hot water apparatus 10 and the intelligent stool 20 are separately provided, and the hot water apparatus 10 supplies water to the intelligent stool 20 through the pipe when the intelligent stool 20 requires hot water.
Specifically, when intelligent toilet bowl 20 need wash the hot water of usefulness, the user can be through the operation interface input user instruction on intelligent toilet bowl 20, if need 35 ℃ hot water, instruction receiving module 22 receives this user instruction, and control module 23 analyzes this user instruction in order to obtain target temperature, if 35 ℃, and send this target temperature 35 ℃ to hot water apparatus 10 through communication module 21 to hot water apparatus 10 provides 35 ℃ hot water to intelligent toilet bowl 20.
It can be seen that, in this intelligent toilet bowl system, the hot water that accessible external hot water equipment provided needs to intelligent toilet bowl, from this, can reduce intelligent toilet bowl's design volume, has increased the suitability of intelligent toilet bowl and closestool in the outward appearance, and the potential safety hazard is little, maneuverability is high, and user experience is good.
In one embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 2, the hot water appliance 10 may include a water tank 11, a plurality of outlet valves 12, and a controller 13. Wherein, the water tank 11 is used for saving hot water, and this water tank 11 can have the heat preservation effect, from this, can reduce the energy consumption, improves hot water equipment's water supply effect.
It should be noted that the hot water apparatus 10 may also provide hot water for other water apparatuses (such as a shower apparatus, a kitchen water apparatus, and a bathroom water apparatus), each water apparatus may correspond to one water outlet valve, and the controller 13 may supply water to the corresponding water apparatus through the water outlet valve. It can be seen that the water tank 11 in the water heating apparatus 10 of the embodiment of the present invention can store a large volume of hot water.
It will be appreciated that the water heating apparatus 10 may further comprise a heater, and the controller 13 is further configured to control the heater to heat the water in the water tank 11 according to the heating requirement.
In order to realize the pertinence of water supply of the water heating device, the control module 23 may further send the identification information of the intelligent toilet 20 to the water heating device 10 through the communication connection between the intelligent toilet 20 and the water heating device 10.

It is understood that the control module 23 may control the reversing valve to reverse.
For example, the hot water apparatus 10 supplies water to the intelligent toilet bowl 20 according to the target temperature of 35 ℃, and the flushing function of the intelligent toilet bowl 20 is started, that is, when the solenoid valve module 24 is opened, since there is residual water in the pipeline between the hot water apparatus 10 and the intelligent toilet bowl 20 and the water path inside the intelligent toilet bowl 20, the temperature detection value is 32 ℃, and at this time, the control module 23 controls the reversing valve to open the channel of the drainage module 28, so that the water which does not meet the temperature requirement is drained. Along with the inflow of the hot water meeting the temperature, the temperature detection value reaches 35 ℃, the control module 23 controls the reversing valve to open the channel of the flushing module 27, so that the flushing module 27 performs flushing operation by using the hot water meeting the temperature requirement.
Preferably, the water discharged from the drain module 28 may be recycled.
In one embodiment of the present invention, the intelligent toilet 20 may further include a memory module. The memory module is connected with the control module 23 and is used for memorizing the use habits of the user to generate the use habit information of the user. The control module 23 is further configured to generate a corresponding control instruction according to the usage habit information of the user, and control the intelligent toilet 20 and/or the hot water apparatus 10 according to the control instruction.
For example, when the user continuously inputs an instruction that the hot water needs to be flushed at 35 ℃ through the operation interface at 10:00-10:30 in the morning for more than one week (7 days) and all starts the flushing function, the memory module may memorize the habit and generate corresponding use habit information, and then the control module 23 may control the hot water device 10 to provide the hot water at 35 ℃ to the intelligent toilet 20 at 10:00 in the morning every day according to the information generation and flush the intelligent toilet 20.
