  • the case 20 can further includes another board (unshown) which is pivoted to another side of the opening of the urinal area 24.
  • the urinal area 24 includes a tank 26, a urine collection recess 27, an inlet channel 28 and a flush channel 29.
  • the tank 26 defines a second reservoir area 261, and the urine collection recess 27 is disposed under a bottom wall of the tank 26.
  • the inlet channel 28 is disposed on the partition 21.
  • the inlet channel 28 communicates between the first reservoir area 23 and the second reservoir area 261, so that water can flow from the first reservoir area 23 into the second reservoir area 261.
  • the flush channel 29 communicates between the second reservoir area 261 and the urine collection recess 27.
  • a bottom of inlet channel 28 is within a preset distance from the bottom wall of the tank 26, so that the partition 21, which is between the bottom of the inlet channel 28 and the bottom wall of the tank 26, is formed as a blocking wall.
  • the urinal area 24 includes a flush device.
  • the flush device comprises a switch and a valve which is disposed at one end of the switch.
  • the switch controls the valve to move between an open position and a close position, so that the valve selectively makes water flow from the flush channel 29 into the urine collection recess 27.
  • the switch includes a press member 241 and an elastic member 242.
  • the elastic member 242 is disposed between the press member 241 and the urinal area 24.
  • the valve contains a rod 243 and a block plate 244.
  • the rod 243 has a first end and a second end. The first end protrudes from the urine collection recess 27, and the second end which connects to the press member 241 penetrates through the flush channel 29 and the second reservoir area 261.
  • the block plate 244 is disposed on the rod 243 and is located at one side of the urine collection recess 27.
  • the elastic member 242 provides an elastic force so as to elastically reposition the press member 241 between a first position and a second position, and the block plate 244 is then driven to move between an open position and a close position.
  • the switch can be an infrared sensing device.
  • the urinal area 24 further comprises a splash plate 245.
  • the splash plate 245 is fixed in the urine collection recess 27 and is adjacent to the flush channel.
  • the urinal area 24 includes a urine collection recess 27, a flush channel 29 and a second inlet pipe 246.
  • the flush channel 29 communicates between the second inlet pipe 246 and the urine collection recess 27.
  • the second inlet pipe 246 is used for directing water therein, so that the water then directly flows out from the flush channel 29.
  • the second inlet pipe 246 and the first inlet pipe 201 share an inlet duct 202.
  • the first inlet pipe 201 and the second inlet pipe 246 can respectively connect to a different inlet duct.
  • the height of the first reservoir area 23 in the case 20 of the third embodiment is only half of the first reservoir area of the first embodiment.
  • the height of urinal area 24 in relation to the toilet bowl 10 in the third embodiment is the same as the first embodiment.
  • FIG. 6 Please refer to FIG. 6 for the forth embodiment of the present invention which provides a no-flush urinal area.
  • the urinal area 24 is disposed with a no-flush apparatus which can prevent the odor of the urine from being emitted, wherein the urinal area only defines a urine collection recess 27.
  • the bottom of the urine collection recess (27) is formed as a funnel which is inclined.
  • the urinal area 24 includes an outlet 247, a receiving recess 248, and a filter core 249.
  • the outlet 247 is located at bottom of the urinal area 24, and the receiving recess 248 communicates between the outlet 247 and the urine collection recess 27.
  • the filter core 249 is received in the receiving recess 248 so as to prevent impurities from flowing into the outlet. Further the filter core 249 contains a layer of isolating liquid which can deodorize urine.
  • the case of the toilet assembly of the present invention can store water and can be used as a urinal.
  • the toilet assembly can be installed in a small lavatory which cannot accommodate a conventional urinal and a toilet.
  • the male users just need to stand at one side of the toilet assembly and toward the opening of the urinal area when urinating.
  • the male users can urinate without lifting the seat lid.
  • the amount of flushing water for the urinal area is less than two liters.
  • One part of the case is formed as the urinal area, so that the amount of water stored in the case is less than a conventional toilet, but the amount of the water in the case is still enough for the use. Therefore, the toilet assembly can save more water than a conventional toilet.
  • the board can prevent urine from splashing on the seat lid when a male user urinates.
  • the board covers the urinal area, the odor of the urine is not emitted from the urinal area, and the urinal area becomes a part of the case.
  • the switch of the toilet assembly of the first embodiment the water in the first reservoir area flows out from an outlet pipe into the recess body. Due to the block of the blocking wall, a small amount of water in the second reservoir area will flow into the first reservoir area, and the rest water will remain in the second reservoir area so as to save the water.
  • the block plate when the switch of the flush device is pressed to move the block plate to the open position, the block plate is away from the flush channel so that the water flushes into the urine collection recess and against the splash plate. In this way, the water splashes on the wall of the urine collection recess so as to wash out the urine remaining in the urine collection recess.
  • the urinal area comprises a filter core.
  • the bottom of the urine collection recess is formed as a funnel which is inclined, so that urine flows into the receiving recess by gravity instead of remaining in the urine collection recess.
  • the filter core can remove the odor and the impurities of the urine, and the water of the urine flows through the filter core and then flows into the outlet. Accordingly, the urinal area can discharge the urine completely without flushing water therein so as to save water.
