The driving assembly 20 is used for driving the linkage rod 50 to move, so that the linkage rod 50 drives the turnover part 40 to rotate relative to the body 10 by using the axis of the rotating shaft 20 as a rotation center line.

Referring to fig. 1, in particular, the body 10 may include a toilet seat 110 of the intelligent toilet and a base 120 provided at the rear of the toilet seat 110. "rear" refers to an area behind the toilet seat 110 opposite to the back of a user when the user sits on the toilet seat 110. The flip 40 may include a cover plate of the intelligent toilet for covering the toilet seat 110 to close an open area of the toilet seat 110, or a seat provided on the toilet seat 110 to support a user from directly contacting the toilet seat 110. Both the cover plate and the seat ring can be turned over relative to the body 10 within a set range, and in the embodiment, the turning over principle of the cover plate and the seat ring is the same. The driving assembly 20 is located on the base 120, and the rotating shaft 30 connected to the flip 40 is located closer to the open area of the toilet seat 110 than the driving assembly 20.

Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a partial schematic view of the region a in fig. 1. The driving assembly 20 includes a sliding member 210, and the sliding member 210 is disposed on the base 120 and can reciprocate linearly relative to the base 120 within a set stroke range. The linkage rod 50 has opposite ends. One end of the linkage rod 50 is hinged with the sliding part 210, and the other end is hinged with the upper end of the overturning part 40. The right side of the lower end of the flip 40 is connected to the rotation shaft 30. The "upper end" means an end of the flip 40 away from the base 120 in a vertical direction when the flip 40 is seated on the toilet seat 110, and the "lower end" means an end of the flip 40 close to the base 120 in a vertical direction when the flip 40 is seated on the toilet seat 110. When the sliding member 210 moves linearly back and forth, the linkage rod 50 rotates relative to the sliding member 210, and simultaneously moves synchronously with the sliding member 210 under the driving of the sliding member 210 to drive the turnover member 40 to rotate relative to the body 10. That is, the linear movement of the sliding member 210 is converted into the rotation of the turnover member 40 by the mutual cooperation among the sliding member 210, the linkage rod 50 and the turnover member 40.

The manner in which the glides 220 effect linear displacement is not limited. Referring to fig. 2, in the embodiment, the driving assembly 20 further includes a wire track assembly 220, the wire track assembly 220 is fixed on the body 10, and the sliding member 210 is located on the wire track assembly 220 and can slide back and forth along the wire track assembly 220.

Drive assembly 20 also includes an electrical component, such as a motor, that powers glide 210. The manner of driving the sliding member 210 to move by the electric element is not limited as long as the sliding member 210 can move linearly.

Referring to fig. 2, the flip 40 includes a cover 410 and a coupling portion 420. The engaging portion 420 is disposed on the cover 410 near the rear portion of the main body 10, and the engaging portion 420 and the cover 410 are fixed relatively. The cover 410 is used for covering the toilet seat 110, and the engaging portion 420 is used for connecting the linkage rod 50 and the rotation shaft 30. The engaging portion 420 and the cover 410 may be integrally formed to be relatively fixed, or the engaging portion 420 and the cover 410 may be relatively fixed after being connected by a connecting member such as a screw.

To better understand the principle of the automatic turning of the turning part 40, the rotating shaft 30, the connecting part 420, the linkage rod 50 and the sliding part 210 which are connected with each other can be simplified to be a slider-crank mechanism. Here, the sliding member 210 may be regarded as a slider, the engaging portion 420 may be regarded as a crank, the rotating shaft 30 may be regarded as a fixing point where the crank rotates around the frame, and the linkage rod 50 may be regarded as a connecting rod connected to the engaging portion 420 and the sliding member 210 through a revolute pair, respectively. The reciprocating movement of the sliding member 210 is converted into the revolving movement of the engaging portion 420, i.e., the turning movement of the turning member 40 with respect to the body 10, by using the movement principle of the crank slider mechanism.

Specifically, referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 shows a schematic structural diagram of the rotating shaft 30, the engaging portion 420, the linkage rod 50 and the driving assembly 20.

One end of the second arm 450 is used for being hinged with the linkage rod 50, and the other end of the second arm 450 is used for being fixedly connected with the first arm 430 relatively. For convenience of description hereinafter, an end of the first arm 430 connected to the rotation shaft 30 is referred to as a swing end 421 of the joint part 420, an end of the first arm 430 opposite to the swing end 421 is referred to as a free end 431 of the joint part 420, and an end of the second arm 450 hinged to the linkage rod 50 is referred to as a hinged end 411 of the joint part 420. The position where the second arm 450 of the engaging part 420 is connected with the first arm 430 is located between the turning end 421 and the free end 431, that is, the projection of the hinged end 411 is located between the turning end 421 and the free end 431 in the height direction of the body 10, so as to reduce the output power of the driving assembly 20 for driving the turning member 40 to turn without increasing the volume of the intelligent toilet. The first arm 430 and the second arm 450 are integrally formed, and may be fixedly connected by a connector such as a screw.

Referring to fig. 4, fig. 4 is a front plan view of the intelligent toilet. When the intelligent toilet is in an assembled state, the first arm 430 is respectively connected with the cover 410 and the rotating shaft 30, the hinge end 411 is hinged to the linkage rod 50, and when the sliding member 210 is driven to slide rightwards, the hinge end 411 is driven by the linkage rod 50 to move rightwards and downwards, so that the whole overturning member 40 overturns around the central line of the rotating shaft 30. Referring to fig. 5, fig. 5 is a schematic view showing a state where the toilet seat 110 is opened after the flipper 40 is flipped. Wherein, the dotted line part in fig. 5 is the position of the flip 40, the linkage rod 50 and the sliding member 210 relative to the body 10 when the flip 40 is covered on the toilet seat 110. Through the shape of the engaging portion 420 and the matching relationship between the engaging portion 420 and the rotating shaft 30, the linkage rod 50 and the driving assembly 20, the linkage rod 50 can drive the engaging portion 420 to rotate under the driving of the driving assembly 20, so that the cover 410 connected to the free end 431 can be switched between the closed state and the open state relative to the toilet seat 110.

The shape of the engaging portion 420 is not limited as long as it does not interfere with the rotation of the entire flip 40 within a set range. For example, the second arm 450 in the engaging portion 420 may have a long bar-shaped structure as shown in fig. 4, a reverse-v-shaped structure as shown in fig. 5, a curved shape, or the like. Likewise, the shape of the first arm 430 is not limited. In some embodiments, the shape of the flipper 40 can also be configured to provide a minimum driving force from the driving assembly 20 to flip the flipper 40 relative to the body 10.

Referring to fig. 2, the intelligent toilet further includes a support assembly 60 for carrying the rotating shaft 30, the support assembly 60 is disposed on the body 10, and the rotating shaft 30 is disposed on the support assembly 60. The connection manner of the engaging portion 420 and the rotating shaft 30 is not limited as long as the engaging portion 420 can rotate relative to the body 10. In this embodiment, the rotating shaft 30 is rotatably disposed on the supporting member 60, and the engaging portion 420 is oppositely fixed on the rotating shaft 30. Referring to fig. 6, fig. 6 is an exploded view of the support assembly 60, the shaft 30, the connecting portion 420, the linkage rod 50 and the driving assembly 20. For the convenience of installation, the supporting assembly 60 includes a cover 610 and a supporting base 620, the supporting base 620 is fixed on the body 10, and the cover 610 can cover the supporting base 620 or be far away from the supporting base 620. The lower end surface of the cover 610 is provided with a first concave groove 611 matched with the rotating shaft 30, and the upper end surface of the supporting seat 620 is provided with a second concave groove 621 matched with the rotating shaft 30 at a position corresponding to the first concave groove 611. When the cover 610 is covered on the supporting base 620, the first concave groove 611 and the second concave groove 621 together define a rotation space for accommodating the rotating shaft 30. In other embodiments, the shaft 30 can be detachably fixed on the supporting base 620 directly or through a connector, and an end of the connecting portion 420 connected to the shaft 30 is sleeved on the shaft 30 and can rotate around the shaft 30. The cover body 610 is further provided with a limiting groove 612 at a position opposite to the engaging portion 420 for limiting the maximum turning angle of the engaging portion 420.

Referring to fig. 6, the intelligent toilet further includes a torsion spring 70, and a coil of the torsion spring 70 is partially sleeved on the rotating shaft 30. One end of the torsion spring 70 is connected to the first arm 430, and the other end is connected to the support seat 620. The rotating shaft 30 is provided with an annular groove 310 corresponding to the position of the coil of the torsion spring 70, and when the coil of the torsion spring 70 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 30, the coil of the torsion spring 70 is at least partially accommodated in the annular groove 310. The first arm 430 is provided with a mounting hole 432 to receive an end of the torsion spring 70, corresponding to the end of the torsion spring 70. When the intelligent toilet is in an assembled state, when the sliding member 210 moves away from the supporting member 60 to drive the turning member 40 to open the toilet seat 110, the end of the torsion spring 70 connected to the first arm 430 rotates with the first arm 430, and the torsion spring 70 is pressed to increase the elastic compression amount gradually. When the flipper 40 is in an open position relative to the toilet seat 110, the torsion spring 70 is deformed due to the compression thereof to generate potential energy. When the flip 40 needs to be switched to a closed state covering the toilet seat 110, the potential energy can assist the flip 40 to flip to the closed state covering the toilet seat 110. When the flip 40 is in an open state relative to the toilet seat 110, the driving assembly 20 keeps outputting power so that the sliding member 210 is not displaced by the elastic restoring force of the torsion spring 70. When the tilting member 40 needs to be switched to cover the toilet seat 110, the driving assembly 20 does not provide power, and the torsion spring 70 drives the tilting member 40 to rotate relative to the main body 10 to cover the toilet seat 110 under the action of elastic restoring force. In some embodiments, in order to prevent the turning member 40 from being abruptly turned under the elastic potential energy of the torsion spring 70, the intelligent toilet is further provided with a damper connected to the turning member 40, and the damper may be disposed on the support assembly 60 adjacent to the rotating shaft 30 to prevent the turning member 40 from being damaged by collision due to an excessively fast rotation speed.

In some embodiments, the mounting holes 432 may be provided in plurality, and the plurality of mounting holes 432 are uniformly spaced apart by a set distance along the length direction of the first arm 430. The end of the torsion spring 70 is connected to the first arm 430 at different positions by providing a plurality of mounting holes 432, so as to change the elastic force of the torsion spring 70 generated during the turning of the turning member 40, thereby adjusting the degree of difficulty of the turning member 40 in rotating.

When the turnover part 40 is used as a cover plate of the intelligent toilet, the driving assembly 20 and the linkage rod 50 may be arranged as one group, or two or more groups may be arranged. Corresponding to the multiple sets of driving assemblies 20 and linkage rods 50, the turning part 40 is provided with multiple engaging parts 420 at the position of the cover 410 near the rear part of the body 10, so as to be connected with the driving assemblies 20 and the linkage rods 50 in a one-to-one correspondence manner. More specifically, the engagement portion 420 is located at a middle region of the rear end of the cover 410. Alternatively, the engagement portion 420 is located at a position offset from the central region of the rear end of the cover 410. Alternatively, the engaging portion is located at a middle region of the rear end of the cover 410 and at a position offset from the middle region of the rear end of the cover 410. The rear end of the cover 410 refers to a side of the cover 410 facing the rear of the intelligent toilet.

When the turning member 40 is used as a seat of the intelligent toilet, the driving assembly 20 and the linkage rod 50 may be arranged in one group, or two or more groups. Corresponding to the multiple sets of driving assemblies 20 and the linkage rods 50, the turnover part 40 is provided with a plurality of engaging parts 420 at the position of the cover 410 near the rear part of the body 10, so as to be connected with the driving assemblies 20 and the linkage rods 50 in a one-to-one correspondence manner.
