By controlling the discharge to control the opening and closing of the drain 2110, the amount of water discharged from the main body 2100 to the outside can be adjusted.

For example, if the amount of water consumed when the user uses the toilet one time is 6 liters, and the amount of water (water) stored in the main body 2100 of the present invention is 12 liters, The water discharge cover 2410 blocks the drain port 2110 by the operation of the opening and closing control unit 2330 at the timing of discharging the positive 6 liters, thereby preventing further water discharge, and thus the invention remains in the main body 2100. 6 liters will be saved.

However, at this time, since 6 liters of water remain in the main body portion 2100, additional water is not supplied through the water supply pipe 2210, and water is not supplied through the residual water supply pipe 2220. This is due to the construction of a general toilet, in which a water consumption of a single amount of water (for example, 6 liters) is left in the water tank of the general toilet, so that water is not supplied from the tap water. Since this is a well known technique for the main pipe, a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

In this case, since the present invention may use 6 liters of water in the main body 2100 next, it is not a problem that additional water is not supplied through the water supply pipe 2210, but through the remaining water supply pipe 2220. The toilet may be contaminated because the water is not supplied to the toilet. However, since the present invention can supply the water stored in the auxiliary storage unit 2600 to the remaining water of the toilet through the auxiliary water supply pipe 2620, it is possible to prevent contamination of the toilet due to the lack of the residual water.

In addition, the present invention may be further supplied to the main body portion 2100 through the faucet residual water supply pipe 2610 even in a state in which water remains in the main body portion 2100. The further faucet remaining water is introduced into the body portion 2100 is merged with the existing water.
