Description

{TOILET USING BUBBLE AND WATER}

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to a toilet type toilet, and more particularly to a flush toilet combined with water and foam.

Generally, a toilet is divided into a flush toilet which treats manure with the washing of the toilet by flowing water into the flush toilet largely according to the method of treating the manure, and a conventional toilet which treats the manure only by dropping the manure into the lower flush toilet.

The flush toilets are easier to use than conventional toilets, smell-free, hygienic, and are increasingly being installed. However, in a flush toilet, water is wasted and there is a limitation in that it is difficult to install or the utility is deteriorated when installing the toilet in a simple manner.

Recently, there has been an increase in the use of a fountain type toilet which is easy to install and maintains a good sanitary condition. Such a fountain type toilet is disclosed in Registration No. 0351961, "Fountain type toilet bowl cleaning apparatus ".

Conventional fountain toilets combine a detergent in a small amount of water and generate foam as the air is poured to treat the manure along with cleaning the toilet. However, the toilet is usually installed at a place where managers can not manage frequently, such as mountains or amusement parks.

Accordingly, when the detergent is not periodically replaced or when the number of times of use is larger than the expected value, bubbles may not be properly generated and the toilet may not be managed cleanly.

In addition, when the manure is treated with foam, the manure adhered to the surface of the toilet may not be properly removed.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a toilet flush toilet combined with a flush toilet which can treat manure not only with foam but also with water.

It is another object of the present invention to provide a flush toilet with improved flushing efficiency by spraying water at a certain pressure through the upper inner circumferential surface of the toilet bowl.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a flush toilet with a flush toilet which is simple in its entire structure by using water for flushing and water for flushing foam,

In order to accomplish the above object, one aspect of the present invention relates to a flush toilet combined with a flush toilet. A toilet-type toilet according to the present invention comprises: a toilet bowl main body formed independently of a foam supply passage for supplying foam and a water supply passage for supplying water, and having a water spray hole for spraying water on an inner peripheral surface thereof; A water tank coupled to the body of the toilet and receiving water; A foam generator provided in the water tank and supplied with water from the water tank to generate foam and supply the foam to the foam supply passage; A chemical liquid supply unit coupled to one side of the water tank to supply a chemical liquid to form bubbles in the foam generator; A water supply unit for supplying water in the water tank to the water supply channel; And a water injection switch which is disposed at one side of the water tank and receives a water injection signal to spray water to the water spray hole through the water supply passage.

According to one embodiment, the toilet bowl main body includes: a toilet bowl in which manure is received; Wherein the foam supply passage is disposed in a boundary region between the toilet bowl and the seat engagement surface, and the foam supply passage is communicated with the toilet bowl from the foam supply passage, And a foam discharge hole through which the foam is discharged, and the water spray hole is formed at an inner surface of the cover engagement surface at regular intervals.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, the foam generating unit includes a foam generating tube having a lower end disposed to be submerged in water inside the water tank and an upper portion connected to the foam supply passage; And a chemical liquid supply pipe connecting the bubble generation pipe and the chemical liquid supply unit.

According to one embodiment, the water supply unit includes a water supply pipe which is provided independently of the foam generation pipe and supplies water in the water tank to the water supply channel in accordance with a signal of the water injection switch.

The flush toilet combined with toilet according to the present invention can clean the toilet bowl by spraying not only foam but also water. Conventionally, water is flowed from the flush toilet to the toilet bowl, and the water is sprayed from the upper part to the lower part, so that the cleaning efficiency can be increased.

This makes it possible to clean manure marks that can not be treated with foam.

For a better understanding of the present invention, a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments of the present invention may be modified into various forms, and the scope of the present invention should not be construed as being limited to the embodiments described in detail below. The present embodiments are provided to enable those skilled in the art to more fully understand the present invention. Therefore, the shapes and the like of the elements in the drawings can be exaggeratedly expressed to emphasize a clearer description. It should be noted that in the drawings, the same members are denoted by the same reference numerals. Detailed descriptions of well-known functions and constructions which may be unnecessarily obscured by the gist of the present invention are omitted.

Fig. 1 is a schematic view schematically showing a configuration of a toilet-type toilet 100 according to the present invention. As shown in the figure, the toilet 100 according to the present invention includes a toilet body 110 in which a user is seated, a water tank 120 in which water is stored, a chemical liquid supply unit 120 for supplying the chemical liquid to the water tank 120, A foam generating unit 150 connected to the toilet bowl main body 110 to generate a foam and an air supplying unit 140 for supplying air to the foam generating unit 150.

The toilet bowl main body 110 includes a toilet bowl 111 in which manure is received, a seat 112 coupled to the upper surface of the toilet bowl 111, an outer casing 113 surrounding the outside of the toilet bowl 111, And an opening / closing plate 118 coupled to the lower manure discharge hole 111b to discharge the manure.

The toilet bowl 111 is formed with a bubble moving slope 111a formed to be inclined so that the inner wall surface of the toilet bowl 111 can easily flow down from the upper part to the lower part of the foam. So that the foam B is uniformly retained in the toilet bowl 111 through the foam moving slope 111a, thereby treating the manure.

On the upper surface of the toilet bowl 111, a seat engagement surface 114, on which a water supply passage 114a is formed, is formed. The seat engagement surface 114 is partitioned by the toilet bowl 111 and the partition 115 to form a separate space. Thereby, the water supply passage 114a in which water is contained is formed inside the seat engagement surface 114. The water supply passage 114a is formed throughout the entire region along with the formation of the seat engagement surface 114. [ A water spray hole 114b for discharging water to the toilet bowl 111 is formed on the inner wall of the water supply passage 114a.

The water spray hole 114b can spray the water of the water supply passage 114a to the toilet bowl 111 at a predetermined pressure to cleanly remove traces of manure in the toilet bowl 111. [ As a result, it is possible to keep the toilet bowl 111 clean in a double manner by using water as well as the foam B.

At this time, the higher the pressure of the water sprayed through the water spray hole 114b is, the higher the cleaning efficiency becomes, so that the size of the water spray hole 114b is reduced. In some cases, a separate nozzle member (not shown) may be coupled to the water spray hole 114b.

A plurality of water spray holes 114b are formed at regular intervals along the inner surface of the seat engagement surface 114. Here, the water spray holes 114b may be arranged at the same height or alternately arranged at different heights . Accordingly, since the water is sprayed to various positions of the toilet bowl 111, the cleaning efficiency can be further increased.

The water spray hole 114b is formed so as to flow downward so that water flows along the inner wall surface of the toilet bowl and moves together with the foam B. 3, the water W is supplied to the upper portion of the foam B and is diluted with the foam B, so that the cleaning efficiency can be increased.

On the other hand, a foam flow path 116 is formed between the toilet bowl 111 and the seat engagement surface 114. The foam flow path 116 allows the foam B supplied from the foam generating portion 150 to stay and supply the foam B to the inside of the toilet bowl 111. [ A foam discharge hole 116a is formed at one side of the foam flow path 116 to communicate with the toilet bowl 111. The foam B is discharged through the foam discharge hole 116a to the pot bottom 111 and moves along the foam moving slope 111a.

A lower portion of the toilet bowl 111 is provided with a manure discharge hole 111b which is opened to communicate with the manure chamber 200. An exhaust pipe 111c is coupled to the manure discharge hole 111b so that manure is discharged to the manure container 200. [

A rubber french pipe 119a is coupled to a lower portion of the exhaust pipe 111c to discharge manure. The rubber flange tube 119a is formed by joining a plurality of rubber plates 119b downward along the outer periphery. The plurality of rubber plates 119b maintains the state that the surfaces are stuck to each other when the manure is not discharged, thereby maintaining the closed shape. Thereby blocking the back odor of the lower portion from flowing back to the upper portion. On the other hand, when the manure is discharged, the plurality of rubber plates 119b are separated by the discharge pressure of the manure.

The outer casing 113 receives the toilet bowl 111 therein. As a result, the toilet bowl 111 is not immediately affected by the ambient temperature. The main body heating line 177 is provided in the outer casing 113 and is heated by the main heating line 177 when the surrounding air temperature falls below a predetermined temperature under the control of the controller 170.

As a result, frothing of the inside of the toilet bowl 111, water and manure can be prevented from freezing.

The water tank 120 is formed to communicate with the toilet bowl body 110 to supply the water W and the foam B to the toilet bowl body 110. The water tank 120 includes a water tank main body 121 in which water is received, a water level adjusting valve 123 disposed inside the water tank main body 121 to adjust the water level, And a water injection switch 127 which is disposed at one side of the water tank main body 121 and receives water supply from the user to the toilet bowl 111.

The water tank body 121 is formed at a predetermined size on one side of the toilet bowl main body 110. The water tank main body 121 is connected to the water pipe or the water storage tank, and the water supply hole 125 formed on the outer side thereof is supplied with water. At this time, the water is supplied through the pump 163 or the like.

The water level adjusting boom 123 is floated on the water surface and moves up and down according to the water level. The controller 170 controls the driving of the pump 163 according to the water level of the water level control boom 123 so as to be maintained at a constant water level.

The water injection switch 127 receives an input signal such that water is injected into the toilet bowl 111 through the water spray hole 114b from the user and the toilet bowl 111 is cleaned in a flush manner. The water injection switch 127 is formed in the form of a switch or a button. Water may be physically supplied to the water supply unit 160 by driving the water injection switch 127 or an electrical signal may be transmitted to the control unit 170 and may be supplied to the water supply unit 160 Water can be supplied.

The chemical solution supply unit 130 supplies the chemical solution to the foam generation unit 150. The chemical solution is diluted with water to cause foaming. The chemical solution supply unit 130 includes a chemical solution reservoir 131, a chemical solution controller 133, and a chemical solution supply pipe 135 for supplying the chemical solution to the foam generator 150. The chemical liquid reservoir 131 is provided at a position higher than the water level of the water tank main body 121. The chemical liquid regulator 133 is disposed below the chemical liquid supplier 130 to adjust the amount of chemical liquid stored in the chemical liquid reservoir 131 to a minute amount to adjust the supply amount per hour.

Accordingly, a small amount of the chemical liquid is injected into the foam generating unit 150 at a predetermined interval, and the amount of bubble generation can be maintained constant.

The chemical solution supply pipe 135 is connected to the foam generation pipe 151 of the foam generation unit 150 to supply the chemical solution. The chemical liquid is diluted in the water inside the bubble generating tube 151, and bubbles are generated by the supply of air.

The foam generating unit 150 is disposed inside the water tank 120 to generate foam and supply the foam to the foam flow path 116. The foam generating unit 150 includes a foam generation pipe 151 where foam is generated and a foam supply pipe 153 that connects the foam generation pipe 151 and the foam flow path 116.

A water inflow hole (not shown) is formed at one side of the bubble generation pipe 151 to allow water in the water tank main body 121 to flow therein. An air supply unit 140 is disposed below the bubble generation pipe 151 to supply a predetermined amount of air under the control of the control unit 170. Since the bubble generating tube 151 is connected to the chemical liquid supply pipe 135 to receive the chemical liquid, air is supplied in a diluted state of water and chemical liquid, and bubbles are generated.

The foam thus generated rises through the foam supply pipe 153 to be connected to the foam generation pipe 151 and is supplied to the foam flow path 116. At this time, the movement of the bubble through the bubble supplying pipe 153 may be performed through a physical shape such as a difference in the diameter of the bubble supplying pipe 153, or may be performed through a separate bubble moving means.

The water supply unit 160 supplies water in the water tank 120 to the water supply passage 114a. The water supply unit 160 may include a water supply pipe 161 vertically disposed in the water tank 120 and a pump 163 for introducing water into the water tank 120 at a predetermined pressure. And is provided in the form of an underwater pump disposed inside the water of the pump 163.

An open / close valve (not shown) for opening and closing the supply of water is provided at a lower portion of the water supply pipe 161, and an open / close valve (not shown) can be driven by the water injection switch 127. When the user presses the water injection switch 127, an on-off valve (not shown) is opened and the water is filled in the water supply passage 114a along the water supply pipe 161, (111).

The control unit 170 is disposed at one side of the toilet body 110 to control the toilet body 110 to operate stably without being affected by ambient temperature. The control unit 170 includes a water tank temperature sensing line 171 for sensing the temperature inside the water tank 120 and controlling the temperature inside the water tank 120, And a toilet temperature sensing line 175 for sensing the temperature of the outer casing 113 to regulate the temperature of the toilet bowl main body 110. [

The operation of the fountain type toilet 100 according to the present invention having such a configuration will be described with reference to Figs. 1 to 4. Fig.

Before the water injection switch 127 is pressed, the feces-type toilet 100 processes the manure by the generation of bubbles. For this, a small amount of chemical liquid, which is adjusted by the chemical liquid control unit 133, is supplied to the water introduced into the bubble generation pipe 151 through the chemical liquid supply pipe 135. The air supply unit 140 supplies air and the foam B is generated in the foam generation pipe 151 in a state where the chemical solution is diluted in water.

The generated foam B moves along the foam supply pipe 153 and moves to the foam flow path 116. Then, the water is discharged into the toilet bowl 111 through the foam discharging hole 116a, moved along the bubble moving slope 111a, and evenly distributed throughout the toilet bowl 111.

In this state, when manure is generated inside the toilet bowl 111, the foam B sucks manure. The opening / closing plate 118 is driven by the weight of the manure, and the manure is dropped into the manure container 200. [

On the other hand, if the manager or the user wishes to clean the toilet bowl 110 with water to manage or clean the toilet bowl body 110, the water ejection switch 127 is pressed.

The water inside the water tank 120 is moved to the water supply passage 114a through the water supply pipe 161 by the pressure of the water injection switch 127. [ Then, the water is sprayed into the toilet bowl 111 through the water spray hole 114b. The water W is sprayed at a constant pressure, so that manure marks on the wall surface of the toilet bowl 111 can be cleanly cleaned.

Particularly, since the water spray hole 114b is positioned on the seat engagement surface 114 at the uppermost position of the toilet bowl body 110, water can be dropped downward and the entire toilet bowl 111 can be cleaned. In addition, since the water spray hole 114b is uniformly distributed along the inner wall surface of the seat engagement surface 114, the cleaning efficiency can be increased.

As described above, the toilet flush toilet according to the present invention can clean the toilet bowl by spraying not only foam but also water. Conventionally, water is flowed from the flush toilet to the toilet bowl, and the water is sprayed from the upper part to the lower part, so that the cleaning efficiency can be increased.

This makes it possible to clean manure marks that can not be treated with foam.

The flush toilet according to the present invention uses water in one water tank together, and the water supply passage and the foam supply passage are arranged differently from each other by the partition wall, so that the whole structure can be simplified.
