Description

Rotary urinal

Technical field

The invention relates to a sanitary device, in particular to a urinal.

Background technique

At present, the urinals for men mainly include wall-mounted and seat-standing. Both types of urinals have the following defects: After urinating, some urine will inevitably splash on the outer edge of the urinal, while the urinal The manual or automatic flushing device can only flush out the residual liquid in the urinal cavity, but it is always clean without the outer edge, so the urinal has always been the main source of odor in the male toilet. Although the general family has a general need to install a urinal, but because the toilet room is not enough, or because of the beauty and have to give up installing a urinal in the bathroom, then the man can only use the toilet or squat toilet, the result is water Splashing, smelling full house. Therefore, the existing urinals are not thoroughly cleaned after rinsing, which causes great troubles for sanitary cleaning of public or domestic restrooms. In addition, the installation of the existing urinals is often completely protruded from the mounting surface, such as the wall surface, which greatly occupies the design space. When the urinal is installed, the space size of the restroom is required to be high.

Summary of the invention

The object of the present invention is to provide a rotary urinal with novel structure and convenient cleaning, so that the inner cavity and the outer edge of the urinal can be thoroughly cleaned, occupying a small space, and being beautiful and practical.

The technical solution of the present invention can be realized by the following technical measures, a rotary urinal comprising a urinal main body, characterized in that the urinal main body is used as a liner, and an outer casing is further provided with the outer casing; Within the housing there is a rotary mechanism between the two for rotation of the inner shaft about the vertical axis within the housing so that the front surface of the inner casing can be transferred into the interior of the housing for flushing.

In the state of use, the front side of the inner casing faces outward, that is, facing the user. After use, the inner casing can be rotated inside the outer casing, that is, the front surface of the inner casing is turned into the outer casing, and then flushed, thereby realizing the entire inner casing. Completely rinsed out.

The present invention can be modified as follows, the rotating mechanism includes a vertical rotating shaft, that is, the inner casing and the outer casing are movably connected by a rotating shaft, thereby achieving the purpose of rotating the inner casing in the outer casing. The structure is simple and easy to implement.

The present invention can also be modified as follows. The outer casing comprises a top surface, a bottom surface, a back surface and two side surfaces, and constitutes a semi-closed structure. The lower portion of the inner casing is movably mounted on the bottom surface of the outer casing through the rotating shaft, and the upper part of the inner casing It can also be mounted on the top surface of the housing by rotating the shaft, or it can be connected to the wall directly through the rotating shaft. After the use of the invention, the angle of rotation of the inner liner is preferably 180 degrees, so that the position of the back side and the front side of the inner tank alternates exactly once, so that the front side of the inner tank faces the back of the outer casing, and the space can be utilized more effectively and reasonably. At the same time, when rinsing the liner, it is cleaner and more thorough.

The urinal according to the present invention is also more novel and practical than the existing urinal, except that it can be like a common urinal In the same way, it can be directly protruded and installed on the wall surface, and the urinal can be embedded in the wall body, that is, the outer shell of the urinal is embedded in the wall body, which is beautiful and saves space. The front end surface of the outer casing may be flush with the wall surface or may protrude outside the wall surface.

The distance between the rotating shaft and the back surface of the inner casing may be greater than the distance between the rotating shaft and the front end surface of the outer casing. At this time, the inner casing rotates.

After 180 degrees, the back surface will protrude from the outside of the casing; conversely, the distance between the rotating shaft and the back surface of the casing may be less than or equal to the distance between the rotating shaft and the front end surface of the casing, and the back surface of the inner casing rotated 180 degrees It will not protrude beyond the outer casing. Therefore, when the distance between the front and the back of the liner is constant, that is, if the depth of the liner is constant, the depth of the casing and the position of the shaft on the inner casing are adjusted according to the design requirements or the thickness of the wall. It can determine the appearance of the inner rotation of the liner.

The invention can also be modified as follows: the rotating shaft of the joint between the inner liner and the lower portion of the outer casing is hollow, and the rotating shaft serves as a drain pipe connecting the inner tank and the sewer; the bottom surface of the outer casing is further provided with a drainage hole, which is washed The water flow in the inner chamber of the inner tank flows directly into the sewer along the drain pipe, and the water flowing through the outer edge of the inner tank first flows into the outer casing and then flows into the sewer through the drainage hole.

The invention can also be further improved, in order to ensure that the water flow does not splash out when the inner tank is flushed, the bottom surface of the outer casing is further provided with an outwardly protruding outer edge in the front direction of the urinal, the outer edge and the side of the outer casing Connected to the whole, that is, the bottom of the outer casing is equivalent to a shallow "container". Because the outer diameter of the inner casing is flushed, the displacement of the drainage hole on the outer casing is limited, and all the water flow after flushing cannot flow into the sewer immediately, that is, part of it. It will temporarily exist at the bottom of the casing, and the shallow "container" is designed to prevent splashing or spillage of water.

The structure of the urinal body as the urinal liner is similar to the wall-mounted urinal of the prior art.

Preferably, the inner contour of the outer casing is adapted to the outer contour of the inner casing, and the inner casing is a columnar structure having an open front end and a curved surface on the outer surface, that is, a rotary surface of the inner casing. The curved surface, correspondingly, has a concave curved surface on the inner contour of the outer casing. In this way, even if the gap between the two is small, the inner rotation of the inner liner can be realized, so that when the inner liner is flushed, the inner liner can be as close as possible to the outer casing, forming a nearly closed space, effectively preventing the water from splashing. come out.

The invention can also be further improved. The urinal can also be provided with an automatic sensing device and a driving device. The driving device is connected with the rotating shaft, and the automatic sensing device is the switching device of the driving device; in the normal state, that is, in the non-use state When the back of the urinal liner is exposed at the front gap of the outer casing, when it is sensed that someone is approaching, that is, when the need is used, the inner casing starts the driving device by the automatic sensing device, and the inner casing automatically rotates 180 degrees. , turn the front side to the front notch of the outer casing; for use, after the use, the automatic sensing device senses the signal of the person leaving and then activates the driving device to rotate the inner casing 180 degrees again, and exposes the back side to the outer casing again. At the front of the gap, close the flushing tank and reserve it until it is detected again.

In addition, in order to make the urinal more beautiful, the back of the urinal liner can be designed as a plane, when designed as a plane, If the thickness of the wall is sufficient, the inner liner can be fully embedded, that is, when the front surface of the inner liner is completely transferred into the outer casing, the back of the inner casing is flush with the front end surface and the wall surface of the outer casing to achieve a hidden type. The effect is much space saving, especially suitable for home use; the back of the urinal can also be designed into a certain shape, such as a vase, a character, an animal, a plant, etc., when not in use, the back of the liner faces the user, Has a certain decorative effect.

The advantages of the present invention over the prior art are:

(1) The novel structure of the present invention breaks through the conventional structure of the urinal in the prior art, and the urinal according to the present invention has a inner casing and a outer casing, and the inner casing can rotate inside the outer casing to make the inner surface of the inner casing face away from the external environment, and After use, the liner can be cleaned, purified and beautified;

(2) Compared with the function that the existing urinal can only flush the inner cavity, the invention has the advantages of simultaneously cleaning the inner cavity and the outer edge of the front surface of the inner liner to achieve a thorough cleaning effect;

(3) The urinal can also be self-inductive, so that the urinal can maintain high quality cleanliness without unnecessary cleaning, which not only improves the hygienic environment of the public restroom, but also It is possible to install a urinal in the restroom of a general household;

(4) The urinal of the present invention is also installed in a different manner from the conventional installation method, except that it can be directly protruded and mounted on the wall like a common urinal, and the urinal can also be used. Embedded in the wall, the depth of the wall is determined according to the thickness of the wall to save space; the back of the liner can be flexibly designed according to requirements, such as designing a plane, the effect is that the back and the wall are on a plane, thus It can be neat and tidy; it can also be designed into a fun shape or a beautiful pattern, so that the urinal becomes an ornament of the bathroom, practical and landscaping.
