Description

Sanitary toilet {Toilet}

The present invention relates to a sanitary toilet, and more particularly, to a sanitary toilet capable of preventing dirt from overflowing to the outside of the toilet body even when the toilet is clogged, and to open and close the toilet seat.

Generally, a toilet in a flush toilet has a common toilet bowl body having a drain hole and a water supply device for allowing water to flow out and allowing dirt in the toilet bowl body to be washed away by a drain hole.

When a foreign body or the like is put into the body of the toilet, foreign substances often can not pass through the volleyball water, resulting in a problem of clogging the toilet. In this case, when the water supply device is operated after using the toilet without knowing that the toilet is clogged, dirt flows out of the toilet body and the toilet and its surroundings are contaminated. In addition, there is often a case where the water is overflowing or leaking out of the body of the toilet. In such cases, the floor surface may become slippery, resulting in a risk of the user of the toilet slipping and falling.

On the other hand, even though the toilet is shared by men and women, men and women are different from each other in urination, so the woman uses the toilet seat down and the man uses the toilet seat. Therefore, when the toilet seat is lowered, men lift the toilet seat and see the toilet. Therefore, the men feel uncomfortable during the lifting of the seat by the hand, are unsanitary, and have a problem of opening and closing the seat.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings without intending to intend to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention to a person having ordinary skill in the art to which the present invention belongs.

FIG. 1 is a schematic view of a sanitary toilet according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a sectional view of FIG. 1.

1 and 2, a sanitary toilet 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a toilet body 110, a toilet seat 120, and a toilet cover 130 as a basic configuration of the toilet . A foot pedal 140, a control unit 150, and a drive motor 160. The foot pedal 140, Here, the control unit 150 is built in the toilet bowl 110 and is not exposed to the outside, so it is indicated by a block in the figure.

The foot pedal 140 is provided on the bottom surface of the toilet 100 so that the foot pedal 140 can be depressed by a user's foot. The foot pedal 140 generates a first signal, a second signal, and a third signal by the pushing operation of the user.

The control unit 150 controls the control unit 150 in response to the first signal of the foot pedal 140 to generate a control signal for raising and opening the toilet cover 130 of the toilet bowl 100, A control signal for raising and opening the toilet seat 120 of the toilet bowl 100 in response to the first signal and a control signal for opening the toilet bowl 130 and the toilet seat 120 in response to a third signal of the foot pedal 140.
