Fig. 8 is an assembled view of the connector 100 shown in fig. 2.

Referring to fig. 8, the connector 100 is adapted to fix the mounting seat 720 with the toilet cover 710 to the ceramic body 730.

The ceramic body 730 is provided with a mounting hole. During installation, the connection rod 300 is inserted into the ceramic body 730 through the installation hole with the connection member 100 in a non-operation state, and the connection plate 500 (refer to fig. 2) is provided on an outer wall of the ceramic body 730. The inner wall of the ceramic body 730 applies a force to the end of the connecting rod 300, so that the connecting rod 300 makes a rotational movement about the hinge bolt 400 (refer to fig. 2). When the extending direction of the connecting rod 300 is perpendicular to the extending direction of the rod body 200, the connecting member 100 is in a working state. When the connector 100 is in an operating state, the connecting rod 300 abuts against the inner wall of the ceramic body 730 because the length of the connecting rod 300 is greater than the size of the mounting hole. At this time, the rod body 200 is lifted upward, and the connection rod 300 cannot be withdrawn from the mounting hole. Further, by screwing the head 210 (refer to fig. 2), the rod body 200 can be completely screwed into the ceramic body 730. Thereby, the relative position of the connection member 100 and the ceramic body 730 is fixed. Finally, the fixing column 600 (refer to fig. 2) is fixedly connected to the mounting seat 720, so that the mounting seat 720 and the ceramic body 730 are fixed.

The disassembly process is the reverse of the installation process. First, the mounting seat 720 is detached from the fixing post 600 (refer to fig. 2). Then, by screwing the head 210 (refer to fig. 2), a partial length of the rod body 200 is unscrewed from the ceramic body 730. Thereafter, the rod body 200 is pushed downward, so that the connecting rod 300 in the working state is restored to the non-working state. Finally, the connecting rod 300 is withdrawn from the mounting hole, thereby accomplishing the detachment of the connecting member 100 from the ceramic body 730.

In this embodiment, the lengths of the two ends of the connecting rod 300 from the hinge positions are not equal, so that the connecting rod 300 rotates around the central axis under the action of gravity when the connecting member 100 is in a free environment, and finally stops in a non-working state. The free environment means that the connecting rod 300 is not affected by other external forces except gravity.

Referring to fig. 2, in the present embodiment, the ratio of the lengths of the two ends of the connecting rod 300 from the hinge position is 1.1-5. If the length ratio of the two ends of the connection rod 300 to the hinge position is too small, the connection rod 300 is difficult to stop in the non-operating state in a free environment, which makes it difficult to attach and detach the connection member 100. If the ratio of the length from the two ends of the connecting rod 300 to the hinge position is too large, the acting force required by the connecting rod 300 to rotate to reach the working state is too large, which results in great implementation difficulty.

In this embodiment, an inclined surface 321 is provided at the end of the connecting rod 300 that is shorter than the hinge position. In the process of mounting the connector 100 on the ceramic body 730 (refer to fig. 8), after the connecting rod 300 is inserted into the mounting hole, the inner wall of the ceramic body 730 is attached to the inclined surface 321, and the attachment area is large, so that an acting force is applied to the connecting rod 300, and the connecting rod 300 is easily rotated to reach a working state.

as shown in fig. 9, in the present embodiment, the side plate 320 has a right trapezoid shape. The right trapezoid has an upper base 331, a lower base 332, an oblique waist and a straight waist 334, wherein the length of the lower base 332 is greater than that of the upper base 331. The inclined waist of the right trapezoid serves as the inclined surface 321. The lower base 332 of the right trapezoid meets the middle plate 310.

in this embodiment, the upper base 331 includes a first end 341 and a second end 342, and the first end 341 connects the oblique waist. In the extending direction of the side plate 320, the distance between the first end 341 and the hinge position is a first distance, the distance between the second end 342 and the hinge position is a second distance, and the first distance is smaller than the second distance.

The first interval is smaller than the second interval to ensure that the oblique waist serves as the top of the connecting rod 300 and the straight waist 334 serves as the bottom of the connecting rod 300 in a non-working state. In the embodiment, the ratio of the second distance to the first distance is 1.1-5.

In this embodiment, the length of the upper bottom 331 is 15mm to 70 mm.

In this embodiment, the lower base 332 includes a third end point 351 and a fourth end point 352, the third end point 351 connects the oblique waist of the right trapezoid, and the distance between the third end point 351 and the hinge position is a third distance, the distance between the fourth end point 352 and the hinge position is a fourth distance, and the third distance is smaller than the fourth distance along the extending direction of the side plate 320.

In the embodiment, the ratio of the fourth interval to the third interval is 1.1-5. In this embodiment, the length of the lower base 332 is 15 mm-70 mm.

In this embodiment, the length of the straight waist 334 is 5mm to 20 mm.

As shown in fig. 10, in other embodiments, the side plate 320 may also be rectangular.

In another embodiment, as shown in fig. 11, the inclined surface 321 includes a first sub inclined surface 322 and a second sub inclined surface 323.

In a further embodiment, as shown in fig. 12, an inclined portion 324 is provided at an end of the connecting rod 300 having a longer length from the hinge position.

As shown in fig. 13, in still another embodiment, the inclined portion 324 includes a first sub-inclined portion 325 and a second sub-inclined portion 326.

The utility model also provides a toilet seat, including above connecting piece 100.
