Description

SPECIFICATION Sanitary flush toilet The present invention relates to a sanitary flush toilet.
The conventional flush toilet has a toilet seat on which users may sit. People always hesitate to sit on the flush toilet in a public lavatory to avoid infectious disease. Therefore many people stand or squat on the toilet instead of sitting on the same. The toilet seat is easily damaged by said improper use.
It is therefore a main object of the present invention to provide a sanitary flush toilet which comprises a movable toilet seat capable of being cleaned after each time of use.
Another object of the present invention is to provide an auxiliary box located beside the toilet bowl with clean water contained therein for cleaning the toilet seat after use.
A still object of the present invention is to provide a flexible toilet seat made of rubber or other flexible materials which can be inserted in the auxiliary box and cleaned by the clean water therein.
A further object of the present invention is to provide a flexible sweeping plate for sweeping out the water drops on the toilet seat when the latter is pulled out of the auxiliary box.
Accordingly, the sanitary flush toilet of the present invention comprises a toilet bowl having an auxiliary box attached thereto; a removable toilet seat made of flexible material to be inserted in said auxiliary box and cleaned after use; a squeezer plate provided on the opening of said auxiliary box having an arc opening with width and shape identical to that of the toilet seat; and a sweeping plate provided on the wall of said auxiliary box for sweeping out the water drops on the toilet seat: whereby the toilet seat can be inserted in the auxiliary box and cleaned by the water contained in the auxiliary box after use.
Those and other objects, features and advantages of the present invention will become apparent from the following detailed description of the preferred embodiment with reference to the accompanying drawings, wherein: Fig. 1 is a perspective view of the sanitary flush toilet of the present invention; Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the toilet seat thereof; Fig. 3 is a sectional view of the auxiliary box attached to the toilet bowl of the present invention; and Fig. 4 is a perspective view of the squeezer plate of the present invention.
Referring to Fig. 1 with reference to Figs. 2 to 4, the flush toilet 10 comprises a toilet bowl 11 having an auxiliary box 12 attached thereto, and a removable toilet seat 1 3 which can be placed on the toilet bowl 11.
Referring to Fig. 2, the toilet seat 13 is substantially in a ring shape and made of flexible material such as rubber. The seat 1 3 further comprises a handle 14 for better holding the seat 13 to pull it out of the auxiliary box 12 and a plurality of hooks 1 5 for fastening the seat 1 3 to the toilet bowl 11.
Referring to Fig. 3, the auxiliary box 12 comprises a wall 1 6 and a top opening 17. Clean water may be poured into the auxiliary box 12 from the opening 17 and discharged from an exit 1 8 thereof. There is a sweeping plate 22 provided on the wall 16 of the auxiliary box 1 2.
Located on the opening 1 7 of the auxiliary box 12 is a squeezer plate 1 9 which has an arc shape opening 20 formed on the central portion thereof.
A plurality of fluff or cloth pieces 21 are planted on the opening 20.
In operation, as shown in Figus. 1 to 4 the toilet seat 13 can be placed on the toilet bowl 11 and can be inserted into the auxiliary box 12 through the opening of the squeezer plate 1 9. The seat 1 3 after use will be cleaned in the auxiliary box 12 by the clean water contained therein. The next user may pull out the toilet seat 13 from the auxiliary box 12 through the opening 20. The water drops left on the surface of the toilet seat 13 will firstly be sweeped out by the sweeping plate 22 and then be absorbed by the fluff or cloth pieces 21 on the opening 20. Besides, the toilet seat 1 3 will be slightly bent when passing the slit 20 so as to squeeze out the water thereon and that is why the plate 1 9 is named squeezer plate.
It is apparent that the sanitary flush toilet is very useful with the equipment of the auxiliary box with water contained therein for cleansing the toilet seat after use.
Although the present invention has been described by way of preferred embodiment, various changes and modifications are still possible for those skilled in the art without departing from the scope and spirit of the present invention.
1. A flush toilet comprising a toilet bowl having an auxiliary box attached thereto, a removable toilet seat to be inserted in said auxiliary box, and a squeezer plate having an arc opening with its width and shape identical to that of said toilet seat; thereby said toilet seat can be inserted into said auxiliary box for cleaning by the water therein after use.
