Abstract

The invention discloses a suction seat for an intelligent nursing toilet bowl. The suction seat comprises a housing installed on a base, the interior of the housing is an inner cavity, a temperature and humidity sensor, an excrement sensor and a flushing nozzle are respectively installed in the cavity body of the inner cavity, a urine sensor is arranged on the outer side of the lower part of the cavity body, and a discharge port connected with an external negative pressure pipeline is vertically formed in the bottom of the cavity body; and a cleaning device and a ventilation device which are communicated with the interior of the cavity body are arranged on the outer side of the rear part of the cavity body. The cleaning device can automatically adjust the height of the nozzle as well as the pressure and flow rate of running water, thereby realizing overall cleaning on human hip, and overcoming the defects that the existing nozzle is fixed and the flushing area cannot be adjusted. Since the temperature and humidity sensor is arranged inside the suction seat, optimal skin comfort is achieved by adjusting air parameters under the circumstance that neither excrement nor urine is generated. The whole suction seat is compact in structure, and high cleanness of the inner cavity is kept after long-term use; and the whole suction seat adopting the structural design conforming to ergonomics achieves an optimal using effect.

Claims (28)

1. A suction seat for an intelligent nursing toilet bowl, the suction seat comprising:

a housing on a base, an interior of the housing including: an inner cavity, a temperature and humidity sensor, an excrement sensor, and a flushing nozzle disposed in a cavity body of the inner cavity,

a urine sensor disposed on an outer side of a lower part of the cavity body;

a discharge port vertically formed in a bottom of the cavity body and connected to an external negative pressure pipeline;

a cleaning device and a ventilation device in communication with an interior of the cavity body and disposed on an outer side of a rear part of the cavity body, the cleaning device including:

a support,

a lug having a through hole and being disposed at a first end of the support,

a shunt valve disposed at an upper part of the support, where a first end of the shunt valve is connected to a water supply motor configured to control an action of the shunt valve, a second end of the shunt valve is in communication with a telescopic barrel, a cleaning nozzle is in communication with an interior of the telescopic barrel and is disposed at a second end of the telescopic barrel, a first end of the telescopic barrel penetrates through the through hole of the lug, and

a driving mechanism disposed on the support that is configured to drive the shunt valve and the water supply motor, the telescopic barrel and the cleaning nozzle being configured to linearly slide along the support;

a hole in communication with the cavity body and formed in the inner cavity on an opposite side with respect to the flushing nozzle; and

a first connector and a second connector disposed adjacent to the shunt valve, the first connector being connected with a water inlet pipeline and the second connector being connected with a water outlet pipeline, the water outlet pipeline being in communication with the flushing nozzle, wherein:

the shunt valve includes a valve core having a rotary vane type structure, the valve core being configured to be driven by rotation of the water supply motor such that a pressure, a flow rate, and a direction of water flow through the shunt valve are changed;

the shunt valve is configured such that:

upon the shunt valve rotating a set angle range A, water is to flow to an interior of the cleaning nozzle via the valve core and the water is to be sprayed out from the cleaning nozzle; and

upon the shunt valve continuously rotating to a set range B, water is to flow to the water outlet pipeline via the valve core and the water is to flow out of the flushing nozzle; and

the temperature and humidity sensor, the excrement sensor, the urine sensor, the water supply motor, the driving mechanism, the ventilation device are all controlled by a controller.

2. The suction seat of claim 1 , wherein the temperature and humidity sensor is disposed at an upper part of the cavity body of the inner cavity.

3. The suction seat of claim 1 , wherein the flushing nozzle is installed in a front side of the cavity body of the inner cavity.

4. The suction seat of claim 1 , wherein opposite sides of the shunt valve are clamped on opposite sides of the support by a plurality of protruding portions, each protruding portion of the plurality of protruding portions includes a chute connected to the driving mechanism.

5. The suction seat of claim 1 , wherein the telescopic barrel is cylindrical and hollow.

6. The suction seat of claim 4 , wherein the driving mechanism includes:

a driving motor disposed at a bottom side of the support, the driving motor having an output shaft connected to a large roller, and

a plurality of small rollers disposed at a front end of a side surface of the support and a rear end of the side surface of the support, the plurality of small rollers being connected to the large roller by a driving belt to form a closed driving chain, the driving belt penetrating through each chute of each protruding portion of the plurality of protruding portions on the opposite sides of the shunt valve.

7. The suction seat of claim 6 , further comprising an auxiliary mechanism configured to adjust a tightness of the driving belt, the auxiliary mechanism being disposed on the support and including:

a supporting wheel pressed against an outer side surface of the driving belt, the supporting wheel being disposed on the support via a bracket, and

a spring configured to apply pressure to the supporting wheel, the spring being disposed in the bracket.

8. The suction seat of claim 1 , wherein the ventilation device includes a ventilation pipeline and an air outlet web plate, a first end of the air outlet web plate being disposed at an upper side part of the cavity body of the inner cavity, a second end of the air outlet web plate being connected to a first end of the ventilation pipeline, and a second end of the ventilation pipeline being configured to connect to external air supply equipment.

9. The suction seat of claim 1 , wherein a jacket is disposed at an edge of the housing, the jacket being made of flexible and elastic plastic.
